[ROCKS BACK, because he was half-joking but also half being serious]

I can't rule it out and you know it. Not after everything we've seen.

[voidbreaker]

I know, and that makes it worse.

[ ugggggh. ]

I don't have the Adder stone anymore so it's not like we can check.

[survivaltricks]

[. . . khhhh]

I wonder if the Adder stone would even work here? But I'm not surprised that we've been stripped of any potentially useful items.

[and as though to demonstrate, Akira turns out his pockets. which are very, very empty]

[voidbreaker]

Probably not, but I'd feel a bit less useless if I had it her and could pretend it might work.

[ and, yeah. ash doesn't pull out his own pockets but they are super duper empty as well. it's terrible. ]

[survivaltricks]

[. . . well. at that, Ash gets a sympathetic look, because. . . yeah. Akira relates]

[a deep breath. Akira steels his expression]

Remember what we did to even get the Adder stone in the first place?

[voidbreaker]

Broke into shit.

[ chaotic rebellion, it's what they do. ]

[survivaltricks]

Exactly.

So what can we break into while we're here?

[he literally got dragged into the bathroom before he could look around, thanks Ash]

[voidbreaker]

[ look they had to have a team strategy meeting, it's fine. ]

Windows are out, I've tried getting them open.

[ i don't care if this is bending time and space but there's a Cut on ash's cheek. it's fine. ]

[survivaltricks]

[. . . yeah he notices that cut and reaches out to brush his thumb against it. it's fine!!]

Yeah? And what happened?

[voidbreaker]

Stuff ricochets right off them. Bags, teenaged girls, knives...

[ take a wild guess what caused the cut, akira. ]

[survivaltricks]

[ah. yeah. he knows now, and his hand falls back at his side]

. . . impressive security they've got here, then.

[voidbreaker]

Impressively annoying.

[ he taps the cut himself -- it's stopped bleeding? that's good, yeah? ]

[survivaltricks]

It's the same security the mansion had, remember?

[yes, no blood is good]

[voidbreaker]

Which was still incredibly annoying.

[ good. ]

So, obviously we're meant to stay on the bus.

[survivaltricks]

Yeah. Just like we were meant to stay in the mansion.

But they let us out eventually, remember?

[voidbreaker]

So.

Wanna take some bets on what's waiting for us at the final stop?

[survivaltricks]

I'd say hell.

But we just came from hell.

[voidbreaker]

What's worse than hell?

...

Hell 2.0? Soldat class when Prince Egocedric gatecrashes the party with his sense of entitlement?

[survivaltricks]

[the fuck is a Soldat and who is Prince Egocedric]

For you, maybe.

For me it's a world with no coffee.

[voidbreaker]

[ he has to keep parts of his life a secret also i can't believe akira never learned about the Giant Mechas ]

Ah.

To live a simple life.

[survivaltricks]

It's pretty charmed. Are you jealous?

[voidbreaker]

[ it's also cursed with Big Ho Disease. ]








Nah.

[survivaltricks]

[HE FOUND THE CURE FOR THAT]

Yeah. I wouldn't be, either.

[voidbreaker]

[ look at the necklace and don't muck it up. ]

I mean, things are a shitshow in Erebonia but at least there's Soldats and orbal bikes. Some of it ain't too bad.

[survivaltricks]

[he will when the necklace is returned to him :(]

Ssssssomething tells me we have at least one of those two things you listed. Depends on what Soldats are.

[orbal bike, however, makes him think of motorcycles]
