I feel like there are some people over there who'd be angry enough to tank our progress if we told them too much at this point, and there's not much we can tell them personally, anyway. Might be better to save it for, ah. A safer time? A later time...? ...When it comes to the dart playing, anyway.
[she passed on some of it when she saw a ghost! praise her! i had to take a second to double check which day this was to make sure i wasn't lying in meta text.]
They may be. At any rate - Shinobu is there, and so is Sanji. I do not know if they will be able to say much, but...
[...]
Oh! When I was visited by one of them, I did ask if anything had changed to gold for them, and explained that the sequins on my scrunchie had. We spent more time attempting to get the dead's message across, however, but... I trust that person will try and learn more about the sequins from that side as well.
...even if I had, she would not have seen it with enough time to be able to write back to me that same day, I think.
[which she is, frankly, surprised no one called her out on after the "we get letters on friday" reveal.]
We had an arrangement that if anything happened to either of us, we would send information back. We came up with the numbers in advance so she would have more space for the actual answers.
Oh, yes! ...it was a little awkward between us, at first, because of how some things happened on the island, but...
That had nothing to do with why I did not write to her. Since we had already made our arrangement, I sent my letters to other people to maximize what we could talk about.
The issue is, the amnesia doesn't necessarily stop the ones outside of the people who got killed from trying to put together anything they did see from the trial? They wouldn't know any more than what we do during trials, but if someone on that side really wanted retribution badly enough and wasn't aware of the complications it'd cause...
[ so like, if they're trying to not say anything for fear of retaliation...
but yeah, there's. really no easy way to do this. ]
[He looks like he's going to say something, but he stops himself before he can say it. Instead, he goes with something else:]
We could keep the dead in the dark about it until we've got everything arranged on this side too, if it's retribution everyone's worried about. It'll come sooner or later, but in this case 'later' is better.

At the last trial, someone said that if a victim's killer doesn't die too, then the victim doesn't remember who killed them.
I think she doesn't mean saying "oh so-and-so totally killed you", but rather a general "there are roles that have to 'take care of people'".

[Maybe someone should
pass on the golden scrunchie info.]

Actually, think we could outright ask them if any of them have golden sequins on their scrunchies?

I feel like she's our best bet - if anybody could understand, it's her. But it's hard to communicate with them, too.
no subject
[just
throwing that out there.]
no subject
[But he's more worried about the implication.]
Was Shinobu not. . . was there a reason you didn't write her? [Was she not nice.]

[But just.]
But stuff was okay between you and Shinobu, right? She was your friend?
no subject

Mm, well... As long as it's nothing too specific, then? We could say we know what the roles do and who have them, maybe?
[HE'S JUST PARANOID. But he's been tin-hatting from the start... Anyway, he just nods at that.]
Let's hope we get some information there, then, since I still don't have the faintest clue what the exact catalyst for the change is.

This really affects you six the most, though. [ so whatever their opinion is kind of holds the most weight?
... ] Speaking of the scrunchies, my colors only changed when I dropped by for pizza.
no subject
[she did! her best!]
...that was the case for Akira and Chuuya as well, I believe. I have heard of some others changing color without meeting with us, though.

It was the same for those two, too. Ours changed Monday, but Dick's changed on Sunday for some reason.

Mm, we don't mind taking the retribution - but later, when it can't risk everything we've built up so far.
[Please don't make them start over in pizza party hell they are SO CLOSE.]

I sent him something to try to maybe. Help.
