Ah, man… I wish I could be all sappy and what not. I left flowers for you all last week and it looks like they added some more but —
That’s right!! I gotta get down to the serious stuff!!
Norma, how’s the moon over there!? Apparently ours is weird — and maybe not even be the actual moon but someone saying they are. I’m stupid, okay, I’m barely understanding all the riddles we’ve managed to find so far.
... thank you for the flowers. I really appreciate it.
[ she has to snap herself out of the emotional state. right, business. ]
We keep hearing something about the moon will turn into a rock when someone dies, and then someone has to eat the rock. It's apparently the only way to stop something like this to happen again. We just don't know... who this someone is. We get new info periodically, so I am hoping we will get something else...?
Oh, the last thing we heard is that apparently we will be able to go back to you all right before the festival. For uh, some fight, I guess? I have no idea what we are fighting.
[ He’s obviously confused, if not a little offended — WHY ARE THEY HAVING SOMEONE EAT ROCKS… ]
How’s the moon gonna become small enough to eat a rock? And if we’re talkin’ about people separated from the rest… I dunno — a hero? Maybe?
Sorry, I shouldn’t be adding more questions to your questions.
Have you heard about how each team is apparently supposed to kill someone… just so we get a chance to go home? Have you talked to anyone else who’s confirmed this? [ dead people obviously ]
But that’s good! Did they say that it was gonna be temporary… ?
But I'm not sure... the message was basically just telling us that when the person dies, just eat the rock. And that it won't break our teeth or anything, it will dissolve.
[ just OK!!! SHE GUESSES!!! ]
... yeah, we got a weird message about that. How every team has to kill, but it also said it's meant to make the public hate us? Whoever wrote it was overly dramatic for no reason. They want us to suffer by killing, I guess.
It didn't say temporary, so I assume it's for good? It basically said that they figured out how to reunite us... I think we might have to be penguins for it?
Isn’t that just like one of those… jawbreakers? Are we dealin’ with some weird candy man.
[ THE BIG BAD IS WILLY WONKA???? ]
That’s too bad. They make it sound like we gotta pick up the slack and hurt someone for the sake of just suffering. Whoever’s behind this is a sick bastard, I’m gonna crush his head in.
[ said so very casually ]
Oh! The prinnies!?
We just learned about some prinnies that came with Pink Pig — something something journalism… I think they’re controlling the press? [ vane getting an item to contact the dead and him being the stupidest person of this group was such a bad idea ] Wait, uh, since you’re all there does that mean the heroes that were killed before we got there are with you, too?
I guess it's like... a magic rock? Since it used to be a moon and all.
[ she does not understand how it works. ]
Apparently the person might have long hair and a top hat though? I'm not sure how reliable that info is, but just something to keep in mind. If they take the top hat off we are screwed.
[ she nods her head. ]
I can't say where we are, but... those other four heroes are with us, yeah! They're just hanging out? I think one of them is the one who figured out how to send us back to you, but they didn't sign their name on their note...
They’re probably trying to be mysterious and cool. But that’s good!
Hmm… you can’t tell us where you are — can you tell me if you guys can see us from where we’re at? Or at least… With Saysay and Ace the big screen went black a few times. Can you guys see any of that?
We can see you, yeah. We have those TV things... our screen didn't go black? Maybe that only happens to you guys. But if you guys need to tell us stuff, when you're outside in public if you just yell it out we'll hear you if it's something we need to know ASAP.
[ they might look crazy yelling at nothing but it's fine ]
Wait, you guys hear everything? Even during trial? There's been a few harsh things thrown around then, so... [ not towards norma but he still feels bad that... people sometimes say things!
but he immediately brightens up ]
Everyone is doing good! I make sure that they're fed all the time, of course. Will likes spending a lot of his time with Nic, but that's to be expected. Hana makes sure to cheer everyone up when it's a little moody, and I try my best to make sure she's okay, too. Ponta has opened up a lot and it makes me happy to see him be so determined and unafraid to say what's on his mind.
The kids are so smart, Norma, you'd be so proud of all the theories and the information they managed to pile up together! You'd probably have an easier time and a lot more to answer or maybe put together with them, really...
But we all miss you and want all of you guys to come back! But stop me before I ramble!!
Yeah, we usually watch trial together as a group. We can even vote, but we can only cast one and it's by majority.
[ it won't ever happen but it would be funny if the gy breaks a tie :amen: ]
... aw. I really miss you guys, too. I'm sorry that I left you all so soon. There was a lot I wanted to do with you all! So, just tell everyone I'm thinking of them, okay? And I miss them. Everyone else does, too. [ ignores that most of the dead are crazy it's fine ] We're rooting for you.
If anything big happens, we'll try to send the message to you guys as soon as we can.
Oh, yeah -- Make sure Reigen and Ace know that Saysay and Nimona miss 'em a bunch, but they're doin' fine. They love 'em a lot. And, uh... let Mika and Rocket know we haven't forgotten them either! Chiemi should know that the mashed potato soda actually tastes awful! [ He's thinking so hard... to think of what to say... anyway -- ]
So you still have secrets... I see... so I guess we'll never know about who killed Satan -- [ he's being coy but also someone may have asked him to try that ]
Oh! Wait! If the heroes from before are with you guys, that means Silver Horse is there too, right!?
The book was originally the moon's, apparently. It was badly damaged during the battle and we started theorizing that some of the info we've got was from the book itself, but we don't know what happened to it after the battle against Silver Horse and the moon.
From what I know, the book seems... ordinary? Nothing about a title or anything, sorry.
I couldn’t tell ya. I know the moon can be weird sometimes, but this is the first I’ve been in a situation where it got mad over a book! Maybe it’s just mad a series ended?
[ anyway ]
Oh, okay… well if it’s you guys making us fall in love with each other than stop it!
I dunno... things like that can get mad about a lot of things. Where I'm from, the ocean hates us, so...
[ this is normal for her. unfortunately. ]
Aha, if it helps, I haven't cursed you guys. That just seems too depressing on top of everything else you're doing.
[ hmmm what else ]
There's also this one guy who's with us who just hands around. He said he was always there, but we only noticed him like weeks later. I thought it was weird.
[ maybe he blended in because he was such A Guy that norma didn't even notice him ]
Man, why does everybody gotta be mysterious and weird!?
Well... I guess that's the best we're gonna do with the information we've got on hand. I'll inform everyone that you guys can see us, and maybe just keep the blue haired guy part and rock candy to our team. If anybody I bet Will, Nic, or Citrus will be able to rack their heads together to make some sense outta all of this.
[ hm... what else is their to add... ]
And -- this is just between you and me -- but I've got to see Fox's face... I'm sure the kids have, too, but...
Man! They're really cute!! Hopefully we don't mess things up so you can see for yourself! Our team has the cutest people in this whole group and no one's ever gonna change my mind!! [ that's her tea ]
no subject
Norma! Norma!? Should I shout really loud for you to hear me!? Are you okay?
no subject
[ this is going to start stupidly because she is immediately going to try to hug him
and just passes through him ]
Oh.
no subject
HE’S GONNA TURN AROUND AND DO THE HOVER HUG HER. OR SOMETHING. IT COUNTS AS A HUG!! ]
Normaaaaaaaa!! It’s been so long!!
[ he’s crying ]
Have you been eating well? No one’s been mean, right? No fighting?
— I’ll only tolerate you guys fighting together, not against each other!!
no subject
she looks healthy, at least! nothing terrible or undead about her, she just looks happy to see him. ]
We're not fighting! Uh. Well, there's some fighting, I guess, but nothing like... too bad...
[ just what you would normally expect from people mad about murder. ya know. ]
no subject

How will you guys do that?

[ peeking in flatview deeply confused ]
Okay, I'll pass it on... oh! Can you tell Datz sorry for lying twice? Although he might not remember what this is about. Um...
[ what else ]
I can't say exactly how, but you guys will know.
no subject
I'll let him know, yeah.
So you still have secrets... I see... so I guess we'll never know about who killed Satan -- [ he's being coy but also someone may have asked him to try that ]
Oh! Wait! If the heroes from before are with you guys, that means Silver Horse is there too, right!?
Have they said anything about a book?

[ she is genuinely apologetic about that. she would love to doxx. norma loves gossip, ]
Book...? What kind of book?

[ there's a long sigh. ]
What does this have to do with us being heroes... I'm so confused...
[ she has so many question. ]
'Kay, we'll look for the book. Oh, also, we can curse you guys from our side.

Oh, okay… well if it’s you guys making us fall in love with each other than stop it!

no subject
Man, why does everybody gotta be mysterious and weird!?
Well... I guess that's the best we're gonna do with the information we've got on hand.
