A little timid. Don't seem to know a lot of what you're asking them... unless you're specific. Also, apparently creeping around the house when we're not looking.
Anyway. Theories. That poster on the wall seems like the sort of thing you'd pull, Mr Professional Thief. If you're acting, you've gotta have some reason to, yeah?
Lemme guess, we're still working on that part too?
[ ................ hm. ]
That probably depends on how they're linked to the place and what would bet the easiest way to undo that without killing them too. I wonder if it's anything like how people have died here, but their spirits are still around somewhere...?
[and he has no idea where to start with it, either]
And I honestly have no idea. A few people have come to me wondering if separation would result in Blue's death regardless of what we attempt, but I think straight up killing Blue is the wrong answer.

[his ears are perked forward again]
You startled me. . .
no subject
Senstive then? [ he keeps? looking at the ears?? they're super expressive. ]
no subject
Juuuust a little.
no subject
flicks the ear tip. ]
Just a little, huh.
no subject
Shut up.
no subject
Sure, sure. It's kinda cute though. I didn't realise they were that expressive.
no subject
[. . . okay so it's not a perfect analogy but WHATEVER!! Ash says he's cute and that means Ash is cute too!!]
no subject
These are tiny and round, there's no comparison.
no subject
Did you need me for something, by the way?

taking a sip of his coffee, ash digs into his shirt and pulls out the green triangle. ]
Couple of things. This is called the Adder Stone. To quote the big boss themselves - "It helps with secrets and lost things".
... And I wanted to hear from you what you think is going on here.
no subject
[Akira blinks a few times, before reaching out to take the Adder Stone from Ash, rolling it around in between his fingers as he does so]
Huh. . . I like "Third Eye" better.
[there's a flicker of amusement on his features]
Before I answer that: did you talk to Blue in person?
no subject
[ ash takes another siiiiiiiiip, and then nods. ] I get what you mean by "person-like". They're kinda like a patchwork... being?
no subject
[speaking of, he hands it back to Ash]
Patchwork being is a good way to describe it. They're a little timid, aren't they?

Blue and Peach thought it was a good idea.
[aha]
Peach said the Oddity wouldn't take me seriously, and thus the calling card might lower its guard.
So when we eventually do steal its heart. . . it won't be ready for us.
no subject
[ hmmm. ] Well, you can't say they weren't warned if that's the case.
no subject
[he laughs, breatless but still clearly amused]
And exactly.
It'll make its inevitable fall from power all the sweeter.
no subject
And then what? This Oddity gets over confident, and then we swoop and---? Seal it away? Tear it out of the house itself?
[ stab it? ]
no subject
Regardless, we can't do anything until we separate Blue from the Oddity in the first place.

It's what those notes seemed to imply, anyway.
no subject
Spells and stuff aren't my thing, so I've got no idea if there's a spell out there to separate things from each other.
no subject
Maybe it was to become more powerful? I don't know.
. . . but I actually might be able to find out.
