...How is that obvious? I'm in the Vipers and I'm in Coatepec and Tikal all the time.

Yeah. It definitely just wanted to tell us things to get us to do what it wanted. But even if it lied to us, we have an idea of what it wants. It wants the relics brought together so they can escape together. It's up to us to figure out if that's a good idea or not.

What else did you notice?

[goldenscarred]

They give you a room if you join their coterie. Even if I'm not using it.

I'm back to thinking it's not a good idea. If they aren't the ones controlling or releasing the incense, and the incense is what brought us here, then why do we need to involve them at all? They're extra pieces.

I agree with you too- about Eagle. That's why I switched. He'll take it as me leaving Viper because of the trouble I helped cause, and won't suspect I'm observing him.

[A little cocky on his own abilities to be a spy, here.]

[namestrees]

Man, you get a whole room in the Eagles? That's way better than when I was in the Jaguars.

Yeah, I agree. They might serve some purpose, but it's separate from the incense itself. I originally thought they might be elemental spirits like we had at home? Which means they'd be really tied into the world itself. But... I'm not sure it's the case any more.

Be careful with Eagle. He acts all goofy but I've always had a really bad feeling about him. The way he talks to people... I dunno. He acts like an idiot, and he might even be one... but he doesn't even try to hide the fact that he's only interested in his end goal.

[goldenscarred]

... You're in Coatepec right now, right?

[namestrees]

Yeah. Supposedly I'm grounded, but I don't think that actually means anything.

[goldenscarred]

I learned it doesn't mean burying someone alive. So that's good.

I have something I want to show you. I'll bring it to you. It's going to take me some time to set up. Can you sneak out in two hours?

[namestrees]

...I guess it does kinda sound like that, huh.

Yeah. Not a problem. As long as I'm not grabbing another relic, I think we're good.

[can you actually sneak anywhere when your dad has incredible super-senses. Probably not. But that is not gonna stop him ever.]

[goldenscarred]

You're not.

Behind The Eye, I'm setting something up. Show up in two hours. See you there.

this is actually a 2-parter i forgot to tell you about

[When Lloyd arrives, he's greeted to the sight of Hunter, with papers all stuck to a wall, and with strings tied to them, connecting points to each other seemingly at random.

Like so:

]

Great, you're here!

[namestrees]

[As promised, Lloyd arrives! With his giant maybe-dog in tow as usual-- though. Uh. He definitely wasn't expecting this sort of display when he'd been invited out. How long did this take him to set up. Did he bring it out behind the bar just for this, or does it live here. He has so many questions that he'll likely never ask.

Instead he just.... looks confused from one paper to another, before looking to Hunter.]

You've.... been busy.

[goldenscarred]

Yeah. Pretty neat, right? I have some theories...

[But first, he looks to Noishe.]

What's that.

[namestrees]

[He follow's Hunter's gaze to Noishe, who turns his head to look right back at Lloyd, large ears giving a wobble. And then he shrugs, ruffling the dogmonster behind the ears.]

Oh, This is Noishe.

[Noishe is over five feet tall. But at least he waggles his tail in greeting, tongue hanging out as he pants!]

He's basically a dog. Don't worry about it. What theories do you have?
