Is the name 'Renée' familiar to anyone else? I saw it in some of the graffiti, and I feel like I should know it - but I can't remember.

Samehada-san, we should spar again sometime soon.

[OOC: As this is ~meta~ Souji is going to be dodgy about it on the journals, but I'm happy to use this for quicklogs!]

[He shrugs lightly]

They can keep it, then, I suppose. As for me... I hate this place.

[He's still smiling, but there's a hint of bitterness underneath the cheerful voice.]

[She turned to face him, looking scandalised.]

D-Don't say something like that! Don't you know the Tree has ears everywhere?

Date: 2011-06-13 02:46 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] coughcoughshank.livejournal.com
[He shrugs lightly]

It hasn't bothered to stop me yet.

[And he's still smiling, but there's a look in his eyes that says 'bring it on.']

[Not the type to even mask dissent, was he? It was the moment of truth. If he was a lying crony of their enemy, whoever they were, she would be compromised. If he wasn't, she might gain information or ally. Stellaris walked towards him, the wrapper full of fancy-shaped marshmallow in hand.]

It could, though. Everyone says that.

[Then, onto the counter she took out the letter-shaped marshmallows, one by one spelling R, E, N, E, E.]

I'll take these, but I forgot my purse in the Scavenger's Yard. I could pay you back tomorrow, but you'll get more if you come pick it up there.

[He glances down at the marshmellows, and then glances back up to catch her eye. He understands]

Are you going down there now, or should I meet you there later?

Date: 2011-06-13 03:58 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] lingeringlegacy.livejournal.com
Around 5 o'clock would be lovely.

[Even resistance group members need to finish work shifts first.]

Date: 2011-06-13 04:01 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] coughcoughshank.livejournal.com
I'll meet you there, then~

[Time for some timeskip?]
[At the specified time, Stellaris waited alone—Or that was how she looked to those who couldn't see the hidden sniper a few hundred feets away.]

[Souji comes alone - though the sword at his side is clear enough. When he spots Stellaris, he gives her a cheerful wave.]

Date: 2011-06-13 04:24 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] lingeringlegacy.livejournal.com
[She waves back.]

Thank you for coming.

Date: 2011-06-13 04:26 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] coughcoughshank.livejournal.com
[He gives her a small bow]

And thank you for coming as well.

Date: 2011-06-13 04:35 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] lingeringlegacy.livejournal.com
[The bow was reciprocated. She reached into her pocket for some coins and offered them to him as he closed in.]

Here you go.

Date: 2011-06-13 04:47 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] coughcoughshank.livejournal.com
[He takes them, and pulls out his own coin purse from his kimono and tucks them away]

Thank you - though I'm guessing you didn't want to meet here just for that.

Date: 2011-06-13 04:52 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] lingeringlegacy.livejournal.com
[She smiled still, but now less jovial, more knowing.]

Pardon me for being roundabout. This level is known to be the safest for the type of conversation I'd like to have with you.

Date: 2011-06-13 05:11 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] coughcoughshank.livejournal.com
[He nods]

Though what I've said before is true - nobody has come after me yet for speaking out.

Date: 2011-06-13 05:16 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] lingeringlegacy.livejournal.com
That is true. Consistency is not a strong point of this place. [sigh] I have seen that name you asked about. Renée. Where did you see it?

Date: 2011-06-13 05:19 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] coughcoughshank.livejournal.com
There's a watch tower, on the little island off of Stuff Inc - the one that doesn't have a name on the map. It was on some sort of weird lit-up box there. And on a calendar. 'Renée's Wedding' - it was crossed out, too.

Date: 2011-06-13 05:25 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] lingeringlegacy.livejournal.com
The watch tower? How did you open the locked entrance?

Date: 2011-06-13 05:34 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] coughcoughshank.livejournal.com
[He frowns at that]

It wasn't locked.

Date: 2011-06-13 05:43 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] lingeringlegacy.livejournal.com
[For a moment, she said nothing, only looking puzzled.]

I have seen that name in another unnamed island. One of the two at the northwest side on the map.

Date: 2011-06-13 05:44 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] coughcoughshank.livejournal.com
[He blinks]

How'd you get over there? I haven't been able to figure out yet, there aren't any bridges.

Date: 2011-06-14 03:25 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] lingeringlegacy.livejournal.com
Making do with what the Tree dealt us with. Even so, there weren't much to learn in that place.

Date: 2011-06-14 07:18 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] coughcoughshank.livejournal.com
Well... I'm not sure I learned much either. There were a lot of machine-things, I think most of them were broken or something. But we couldn't figure out the one working one.

Date: 2011-06-15 12:45 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] lingeringlegacy.livejournal.com
There were broken machines in that island as well. Musical instruments and a recording system. And then we found this.

[She reached into her backpack and pulled out a transparent zip-lock bag. Inside it was a piece of slightly creased paper (http://edensphere-log.livejournal.com/744370.html?thread=13235890#t13235890).]

Date: 2011-06-15 04:24 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] coughcoughshank.livejournal.com
[Souji takes the bag, and reads the note through it.]

More names... I wonder if any of these other people are the ones who left her name in the watch tower...
