I asked Famine about it that first week. They said the cultists liked the results so much that they'd probably do it again.

And we've had chimeras since, right? Dunno if they'd change it up this time.

[situationship]

I honestly don't even think it matters. We're in this cycle where we kill these possessed people to stop them and keep the monsters we don't catch that week weakened indefinitely, but the cult's just going to summon more monsters! The blood-shedding never ends and no target has successfully stopped an attack.

[ Thinks about blood and has a moment where he unfocuses. ]

[turbulency]

[ Looks at him. Satoru is going through it. ]

It's true. We haven't found a way to break the cycle yet, and it doesn't seem like we're getting any closer.

[bookpapers]

[GOJO NO DONT THINK ABOUT THE BLOOD

he just. rubs at his face.]

But people have been getting notes right? Or however they're finding 'em. Like the one about the dead.

[ Sometimes you have a spiral over how everything could just be an illusion.

But eventually he comes back. ]

Which one is that? I've heard of anything since the baby scroll.

[hands gojo a piece of paper. GETO CAN READ IT TOO!!!]

"—ter what happened today, I don't think you could call this place safe by any stretch of the imagination. We've seen it react now in nearly a hostile way to our presence, and I don't know how long we can stay. Even so, the fact that it exists at all is beyond my expectation.

I suspect some of them want to reach out and make contact with the others, to ease their grief. I understand. But on the other hand, the cult realizing that this place exists—that there might be any space, no matter how small, that they cannot observe—would be catastrophic. What little safety and advantage we do have would be forfeit, and the cult is likely to wipe the slate clean and start over. And in truth, I have no proof that there's a way back.

So, is it worth hoping that they can keep a secret? Perhaps it is cruel, but I want to err on the side of caution."

[situationship]

And we're expected to believe this?

[ He's skeptical because they're exorcists and they see so many people die. ]

[turbulency]

[ Also dubious. ]

Where are these coming from, anyway?

[situationship]

Maybe this is what the goats mean by making progress?

[turbulency]

[ rubs his ears again ]

[bookpapers]

[looks at kanda like he's thinking about whether or not he should do the equivalent]

[bookpapers]

[guess who ELSE is skeptical of this]

I dunno if anyone really believes it -- but I know some people want to.

[and that's almost the same thing]

Caelus said he couldn't say where he got it, and Kate said she couldn't either for the baby note.

[sixillusions]

[Looks like he wants to say something for a minute... but decides he doesn't feel like it]

[bookpapers]

[he looks at kanda???]

[sixillusions]

[Don't worry about it]

[situationship]

[ ??? ]

[sixillusions]

[Abruptly pulls the rectangle out of his pocket]

Do you know what this is?

[situationship]

[ okay his sanity has stopped slipping his wolf tail lashes.... I forgot to say but he's wearing a poofy medieval gown ]

All right, we can just keep it in mind, but until something tangible shows up I don't think we can put a lot of stock in it.

[sixillusions]

[Is suddenly able to perceive this dress and is like ??

I just realized that Kanda's normal outfit has a big old slash on it because of Aqua damn]

[situationship]

[ HE REMEMBERS WHY THIS HAPPENED BUT WHY ARE YOU STILL WEARING IT IF ITS TORN ]

[bookpapers]

[HIS 10K EXORCIST COAT]

[bookpapers]

[is it the same gown in curfew

he nods]

I'll pass on whatever else I find.

[sixillusions]

The purple one said that some of the stuff that happens around here is because of their investigation progress. But the green one talked about how they couldn't keep Camille sealed away, so...

[handweighing motions on how effective they are... Kanda just assumes the NPCs aren't actually that invested in saving them tbh]

[situationship]

Yeah. Famine mentioned there's progress, but not much for us to do except trust the process.

[ ... ]

Two for tomorrow is better, I guess.

[sixillusions]

I think they picked some people to work with. But they probably don't want the cult to notice, so they're being quiet about it.

[But that also means that there's not much else for the rest of them to do besides just... hang out and watch people die around them, so. It's still a little frustrating to him, even though he talks all the time about how he's not here to protect people.]
