All right, it's pretty obvious from the countdown that something's coming. August 19th is when it finishes, and this is one of the first times we've had adequate time to prepare. If the soirée was any indication, things can only go from bad to worse, though that could've been a lot worse. I'm just saying ... we should probably be ready for the

I can keep a lookout for this Noir person, but isn't she one of a pair of twins?

[bitchester]

That's the one.

[justwannahave]

Assuming I can find one of them, how do I make sure she's the right twin?

[bitchester]

... That I can't tell you. I've mostly handled Noir, to my knowledge.

[justwannahave]

I've worked with less.

[bitchester]

I do know that Noir attended the soirée with someone named Naoto. You might be able to ask her some things about Naoto to find out if it's her. Or what she thinks about me-it's usually got something to do with my shoulders being too big.

[justwannahave]

Right . . . Never met Naoto before--is he or she on the directory?

[bitchester]

She ... And maybe.

[justwannahave]

Anything else to go on?

[bitchester]

She's obnoxious. Like a trickster. She does things because she sees a point in them and she goes against her Captain's wishes.

[justwannahave]

I definitely got the obnoxious part. So she is part of a crew of some sort with the other woman and that one guy . . .

[bitchester]

They're a crew.

[justwannahave]

Obviously not from this world if the last two emails are anything to go by. Why did they end up here?

[bitchester]

Something is coming to endanger camp. They've been on a long journey. This is their last stop. What they're trying to stop isn't necessary connected to their journey, but ... they're here to stop it now.

[justwannahave]

Camp's a terrible place to make a last stand. Not to mention the fact that we're sitting on what might be the gateway to all our worlds.

[bitchester]

... That's why they want to protect it.
