[Lavi returns that Look, no he looks distracted and frustrated, but he nods.]

I really don't know what to think. [is it murder? is it a trick? is this punishment for annoying rose???]

Do you know where he was last night?

[greatvalue]

[It can be all of the above. Just little hell things.

But he nods, actually.]

... Yeah. We got stuck in the bar with Itto.

[bookpapers]

[HELP]




Did he really tell you guys to duel each other?

[greatvalue]

[




CLOSES HIS FUCKING EYES]

He wanted us to fight for the right to be Hunter 1.

[bookpapers]

[ITTO...........]

...Was he pushy?

[ITTO, DID YOU DO THIS?]

[greatvalue]

He wouldn't drop it. [TIREDLY.] But at least he got distracted after he noticed the doors were locked.

[bookpapers]

So he's still got priorities, huh? Good to know.

[a little dryly]

What happened after?

[greatvalue]

We noticed the door in the back wasn't locked. But we couldn't go any further than the bonfire, though.

After that... I guess we fell asleep?

[bookpapers]

[THAT BONFIRE!! COSMO!!!!!! but more importantly, lavi draws up short]

-- It wasn't locked? But the front door was?

[greatvalue]

[he nods.]

It had a doorstop, so that might be why.

[bookpapers]

A doorstop?

[HE JUST. PAUSES AT THAT. WHAT]

...Was it still there in the morning?

[greatvalue]

Probably? We were stuck anyway, so I didn't think much of it.

[bookpapers]

...Everyone I've talked to so far said they were locked inside wherever they were -- dorms, library, planetarium. Yours is the only one so far with a discrepancy.

[...]

We should go back and check the bar out.

[greatvalue]

We need to go back anyway. That's where he was last sighted. Though... everything looked about the same when I woke up.

[tho fwiw mods said rule of funny as to why they had the bonfire but maybe the mods are Liars we just don't know]

[bookpapers]

[forces us to spiral over the bonfire

Lavi's shoulders slump at that,]

Library too, whatever damage we did in there's back to normal.

[greatvalue]

[we spend the first 8 hours spiraling over a doorstopper]

What did you do to the library?

[bookpapers]

Broke a chair. [threw it like the hulk at the door] Zelgadis had his sword and tried for the door, but no luck.

[greatvalue]

... Huh, the chair you broke was back to normal when you woke up?

[bookpapers]

Yup, same for the door too. The scratch he left -- poof.

[greatvalue]

Weird... Maybe the demons magicked the mess away before we woke up. They had to be up and about if the time to take pictures and beek about it.

[bookpapers]

[immediately frowns at remembering the beek]

...That's what I'm leaning towards. Dunno if they did that to just make us mad, or to stop someone else cleaning up though.

[greatvalue]

I dunno... If someone wanted to hide their tracks, why would they wait to clean up after themselves? They did it, they're already there and everyone else is asleep. Just do it.

[bookpapers]

[...]

So they'd have the whole night, huh? [great....]

[greatvalue]

... Yeah, I think so.

[A beat.]

By the way, Tuuri said something happened to you in the library. With... a meteor?

[bookpapers]

She told you that?

[he doesn't seem bothered though, as he nods]

It landed on the library and made the books come alive when we touched them. And even before that, our phones started playing a song outta nowhere. Different from the one we heard last night.
