[ch. 3] wednesday, w/ varian

[asswipe]

[HEY, VARIAN. Here's to hoping he isn't too busy, because Veronica isn't bothering with pleasantries when she spots him sometime during Wednesday. She grabs him by the shoulders and (gently) starts steering him in direction of the western tower.]

You. Me. Owlery. There's something new we have to talk about.

... Thanks, V.

[ tho. he's gotta ruin it, and his soft smile turns into a smirk ]

Hey, at least, at least that means you only have two friends down to go now, right?

[asswipe]

[LIGHTLY punches him in the arm that isn't fucked up.]

Jerk. What if I already completed my objective?

[Haha, she wishes. It doesn't sound like she's too upset about him ruining ~the moment~, though, and she hums thoughtfully for a moment.]

... You know, I just remembered something. Wasn't Natsuo asking Tiger about a note he received the week Dave died?

[alchemenace]

Ow. [ it's a fake ow, but still: ow. ] Have you?

[ genuinely curious. but then she brings that up and. hm. ]

... Do you think he got something like this? Is that why he wanted to help Miss Bunch with hers so much?

[asswipe]

[a beat

and she sighs.]

... No. I haven't.

[IT SUCKS. But anyway—]

I don't know if it has to do with Rebecca's objective, but... It's something worth looking into. He did ask why Dave didn't get a note, too.

[the magic of backtags is that this now becomes hilarious considering > shield role]

[alchemenace]

[ yeah wow i wonder what he talked about re: the note!!! mystery. fuck u backtags ]

Alright, so we should talk to Natsuo, at the very least. [ or not because the magic of backtags. he thinks for a few seconds ] Was there anyone else you noticed?

[asswipe]

[backtags are fine maybe

she shakes her head.]

Nothing that sticks out. I'll let you know if I remember anything else.

[alchemenace]

Alright. Me too. And we should both try to keep an eye out for whoever got Beast's letter.
