[CRYSTAL I'M SORRY THAT WAS GOING TO BE A GAGTAG BUT THEN I GOT DISTRACTED BY A PHONE CALL AND THEN I FELL DOWN THE STAIRS



anyway. yona types.]

You've probably already been asked this, but... did you know that things were going to turn out the way they did, today?

[robopriest]

[DFGHJKHGF BRITT TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF!!!]

Yes, I did. Or rather, I knew vaguely that it would turn out "okay". I was a bit surprised by how it turned out, quite honestly.

[dawnblushed]

I think everyone was. I'm glad you're both safe.

[For a second there it really sounded like they were going to yeet themselves off the cliff together!]

[robopriest]

...Me too.

[He looks...relieved.]

[dawnblushed]

Did he tell you that he and I had something planned in case it didn't?

[robopriest]

Hm?

[That gets a look of surprise.]

He? Who's "he"?

[dawnblushed]

Emet-Selch.

[robopriest]

No?

[WTF EMET?]

He didn't say a word?

[dawnblushed]

It was a worst-case scenario - a way to keep cooperating in case he was removed from the Realm after all. Since it's possible to communicate with the dead, we came up with a code so that we could communicate information quickly and easily.

[Once he's had the chance to read that, she pulls her PHS back to scroll through some of the notes on her app, then holds it out again - ]

1 - the location where you go when you die, what it's like
2 - specific activities performed by the dead
3 - information learned by the dead
4 - information specifically related to nova
5 - the name of any previous killers that may need to be killed for others' safety
Use first letter of someone's name, or as few initials as possible to differentiate, when talking about a person. Use U for unknown.
'x' or 'o' after initials to denote if that person should be mistrusted or believed.
L with initial of animal for leaders - LT, LG, LF, and so on.
We need to: come up with a codeword to indicate that it's us in case someone tries to claim to be us to spread misinformation.

[robopriest]

Wow, that's.....a really intricate coding system.

[And a light smile...fond?]

Exactly what I would expect of the man. Hey, just in case...can I copy this code and use it too?

[dawnblushed]

Please do. I shared it with Archer, the night of the trial. I think Emet-Selch plans to share it with Alyssa. So that's five of us who would be able to use the code if something happens.

[robopriest]

[He's bringing out his own PHS.]

Good to know. Anyways, Yona... [And give him a minute while he types.] Did you have any more questions for me?

[dawnblushed]

...well... I really want to ask you who told you things were going to be okay, but I know you probably can't just tell me that, or you would have already.

[robopriest]

[Cheerfully:]

Nope! I can't tell you!

[dawnblushed]

That's what I thought.

[...]

Well, if you talk to them again, please tell them I said thank you. It's good to know there was something that could be done to save him.

[robopriest]

I sure will. I'm sure they would appreciate it.

[And a frown.]

...All I hope is that it didn't have some kind of price for it that no one's telling me.

[dawnblushed]

I guess only time will tell.

[robopriest]

I guess we'll see.

[He really hopes nothing will happen, but...]

[Hm.]

Need anything else, Yona? I'm here to help.

[dawnblushed]

I can't think of anything... but if I do later, I'll let you know.

[maybe it will be easier to ask when she has her voice back!]

Thank you, Hansa.

[robopriest]

You're welcome, Yona.

[And he smiles, lightly.]

...How are you getting along with Won, by the way?

[dawnblushed]

[(checks this thread's timing)

Yona tenses. It's subtle, but there's definitely a tension in her shoulders that wasn't there before. Her expression stays even, though.]

Well enough, I suppose. Why do you ask?

[robopriest]

[A light shrug.]

Oh, he's told me about you a couple of times. I believe you both come from the same world, right?

[dawnblushed]

We do.

[She looks conflicted for a moment or two, like she's wondering if she should ask, but then she types:]

What has he said about me?

[robopriest]

That you're a brave girl that he was childhood friends with, and that he looks out for you in his own way.

[A pause.]

I don't know if you see him the same way, though.

[dawnblushed]

[Closes eyes in canon.]

He's an important person to me.
