PSYCHIC'S DAUGHTER HOTLINE

[batterypack]

[ at any time, you may use your cell phone to call 300 fox way and contact the psychic's daughter for any questions, clarity, discuss your findings with her, etc. ]

[noirges]

Evening! Do you know if we have to feed a skeleton kitty anything or is she okay as is?

[batterypack]

[ a long moment of silence. ]

Sorry, did you say skeleton kitty? Where the hell did you four go today? [ a pause. ] Also it's a skeleton, Yves.

[noirges]

Cabeswater. And I was just double-checking, Marcoh wanted to know too.

[batterypack]

That. [ she sounds like this is so stupid but also so typical. ] It's a skeleton. Why did you... where did you find a skeleton cat and why did you bring it back?

[noirges]

I was in a pit, and there were a lot of other animal skeletons...

But they all started running and I would've felt bad if the kitty got trampled, so I picked her up. I felt bad just leaving her after... All her friends were gone.

[batterypack]

A pit. [ the way she says this indicates this is absolutely abnormal, what the fuck did you guys do. ] How did you end up in a pit.

[noirges]

I thought that was the goal?

[batterypack]

Why would... [ she literally does not know what you guys did. she does not have divine knowledge. from her perspective, you guys completely ditched her while she went to check out another cave. ]

You found a lead then.

[noirges]

[ OUR BLUE ]

Maybe! I think that Siff dreamt of the pit, so when we saw it, it made sense to go there. Though we got a little separated. The others can tell you more about what we saw.

Do you know anything about an extremely rude door?

[batterypack]

[ a pause. ]

You didn't open it, did you?

[noirges]

No, it was extremely mean.

[batterypack]

Yves, focus. [ this is so funny he really just said no because the door was mean. ] You cannot go back there. That door is to remain closed. Keep the third sleeper asleep.

[boxcar]

Hey.

Is it possible to just. Suddenly have powers?

[batterypack]

[ a ]

Seriously, what on earth were you all doing down there?

[ explain the powers. ]

[boxcar]

Fell into some water but it somehow sent us to an underground lake.

I don't know what it is, but I said something, and it was like... I knew it'd be true, no matter what.

[batterypack]

... okay. [ this is new. ] Like a command? Or like... making a lie true?

[boxcar]

I guess it was maybe closer to a command? I said there was nothing to be afraid of, and I always believe that, but it felt more convincing than usual.

[batterypack]

Which means there was definitely something to be afraid of. Yves mentioned something about a pit? Where did you all go?

[ she is considering... ]

[boxcar]

We don't know, is the thing. I said we fell into some underground lake. I think Yves has told you about the strange door.

[ They live in the same gay warehouse he has ears. ]

We got out by climbing our way back up. The forest has been, slower.

[batterypack]

[ my bad I'm doing this on mobile and didn't erase her asking again. ]

And you had to worry about... water? [ god all four of you suck at actually providing details, please help. ]

I don't like the idea of the forest being slower. Usually it's responsive to all of us. And quicker for some of you. If it's slower, does that mean... what? Its power is weakening?

[boxcar]

We had to cross to get out. We were able to walk over it eventually.

[ None of them walked in before that he doesn't know what would've happened. As far as he knows they were idiots and should've just walked across right away. ]

What could do that? Some thing taking power from the lines?

[batterypack]

[ walking on water makes sense in this context she supposes. ]

Sounds a bit like bending reality. [ which. hm. unsure if that is possible outside of cabeswater, but maybe worth a try. ]

If Cabeswater is at the heart of the ley line, then something taking its power would make sense. But you didn't open the door.

[boxcar]

No, but Jiaoqiu just told me he saw it was open.

[ Bends time a little idk. ]

[batterypack]

...Marcoh, let me call you back.

[ ABRUPTLY HANGS UP. ]
