[ The arcade... Jeanne is in here in case there is somehow something new that popped up here. That doesn't seem to be the case, but video games are novel in and of themselves, so she's going to take some time to take a whack at one of them. Literally.
Or Smac in this case.
She's quite good at hitting those moles right when they come up. In fact, she's almost too into it? That she doesn't notice Yona right away.
But Yona, if she's observant enough, may notice that Jeanne's clothes seem a little more damaged than they were the last time they saw each other. A little more ripped. And that maybe there are some signs of scratches that weren't there before? ]

[Wow, Jeanne's reflexes are impressive! Those moles don't stand a chance. She sort of pauses when she hears the sound of them getting smacked, quietly admiring her form for a few moments -
But it's impossible not to notice the state of her clothes, either, and when there's a pause, she speaks up.]
...Jeanne? Did you get hurt?

[ Whack Smack goes the mole— Jeanne turns when she hears her name. ]
Oh, Yona. [ She gives her a small smile. ] I visited the river at night to see how aggressive the mermaids were or if they could be reasoned with first.
[ She doesn't sound too put out by that, though. ]

[Hm.]
...it looks like they were sort of aggressive?
...it looks like they were sort of aggressive?
Yes.
[ It's not like she wants to lie about it. ]
But they don't always have to be. Or that's my hope.

Are you going to try and visit with them again?
I want to give it one more try. I'm thinking of of some kind of peace offering, but I'm not sure what mermaids like.
[ or if the mermaids here would like anything a (non)human would give. ]

Can I come with you?

And, what do fish eat? Maybe they'd like that.

[ Yona and Jeanne are on similar wavelengths because that's her thought process, too, but Jeanne is easily pleased by food. ]
Yes, I'd be happy if you came with me.
[ She is trying not to incite violence, so it should be okay (haha). ]
I think... algae? Or maybe worms and insects? That's what bait usually is.

I bet we can find plenty of worms and bugs in the forest.
[Are they really going to do this, Ara. Are they.]
[Are they really going to do this, Ara. Are they.]
[Well, that was a lot!
Yona's on her way to the forest. She's got her bow in one hand and some arrows tucked into her sash (for lack of a quiver), and she does not look happy. What up, Jeanne.]

[ The question on everyone's (or at least her) mind is why was Yona voted for? What happened there?
It's concerning. Even after all the things that occurred tonight, that on top of it all is a lot, so Jeanne wants to check up on her among a few other things. ]
Yona. Are you here to release some of your feelings?

Yes.
[It's an easy enough question to answer.]
...I think that's better than getting mad at anyone else right now.

[ Her brows knit. ]
Who do you wish to be angry with?

...I don't know.
[It feels like it should be easier for her to answer that question, but - she really, truly doesn't know.]

The entirety of today has been an ordeal.
[ She'd call it a trial, but she doesn't want to call it a trial. ]
There is nothing happy about it, but if there has to be a common enemy, it'd be the source of the disturbances.

["Ordeal" is definitely one way of describing it.]
...I wonder what it is. In the end, we didn't really get much of an answer about that, did we.

It sounds like they still don't know. As much as it would benefit us if the Leaders were to have a better idea, I also know it's difficult to not have the answers you think you should have or that others expect you to have.
[ She shakes her head. ]
But if a great disturbance happened because of Virid's actions, that could be a hint.

They said the other three who weren't there today will keep looking, so... maybe we'll find out if it's because of that soon.
[Yona sighs.]
I just hope we find something out soon. We know what happened, now, more or less - but I still don't understand why it had to happen that way.

[ .... Yes.
If Yona isn't against it, Jeanne isn't going to say no. ]
We may have to collect quite a number. The mermaids were larger than regular fish.
[ She's very serious about this! ]

I keep wondering what the disturbances will do. How drastic of a change will any kind of disturbance cause for us?
[ She thinks the longer they stay without a solid direction, it will become more dire. She doesn't think it's something they can't overcome, but she doesn't think it will be easy. ]
They said strong emotions are something that attracts nova.
[ And it is terrible that what happened did cause strong emotions. ]

I bet we can find something big to carry them all in in that store.
[Oh no.]
[Oh no.]
...then there's probably a lot hanging around now.
[Because there's no way people wouldn't feel strongly about someone dying.]

That is a wonderful idea.
[ She whacks a mole with finality, almost like a gavel against its base.
Jeanne seems a little excited(?). ]
Let's see what we can find right now.
[ Oh yes. ]

[ Oh yes. ]
I agree.
[ Is that beneficial for them, in the end, if they need to collect it? Is it worth it?
What is the proper way to pursue their goal? ]
It doesn't make it right.
