[ hm, interesting. ]

I just wanted to check in and make sure there wasn't anything you all needed, while I was down here. [ pleasant, looking at the girls and not the screens even if he wants to. ] Any trash needing taken out, or any food you would like me to bring down to you, here in a bit.

Woah, we get delivery and cleaning services? I thought that was reserved for the guests! I could really go for a burger. There's this clique of girls that work down the hall and they never want to pick up lunch for anyone else even though they're going back and forth anyway.

[ ok.

ANYWAY TWO SECONDS LATER, MULTIPLE GIRLS COME CROWDING IN THROUGH THE DOORWAY. THEY ALL LOOK IDENTICAL. ]

There's a delinquent on the loose! We got called to the prison cell but she's already gone. Move aside, we need to find out where she is! Word is she's impersonating The Idol. Let us see the screens!

[ these girls just RUDELY shove aside the poor hungry girl and start flipping through camera feeds themselves. ]

[dijun]

[ ok. he'd be more sympathetic towards this poor girl if not for the fact he has shit to be doing. but he startles a little and steps out of the way of the brigade of girls.

... actually this might work out in his advantage? he just can't stick around long in case there are cameras in the prison that caught what happened. ]

Oh, dear. Where was The Idol last? I hope that such a terrible delinquent hasn't already reached her...

[holyspirits]

[ OK THEY BELIEVE YOU ]

Think they were in the casino. No, wait. Havin' lunch? They've got so much money to spread around that they've been hittin' everywhere up! I thought The Idol was exaggerating when they said someone was after 'em... But maybe not. I mean, who'd go around impersonating another person?!

[ They flick through the feeds... And seem to hone in on someone. ]

There! Probably going to their room to get changed for the show later... If that's really them. How do we know if that's them or the impersonator? Oh God, we'd better keep looking.

[ Yippee. YOU, unlike these helpless idiots, know that there IS no impersonator.

You can make out the shape of their halo on the screen as the girls point and jab, annoyingly covering up most of the other visual details about The Idol. But you can tell that they are currently on the Promenade deck, about to take an elevator down. According to these girls, probably to a stateroom? Either way, they're on the move. ]

[ HELP MEEEEEEE NPCS IN BLUE ARCHIVE CYOA SUCCEED AN INT CHECK CHALLENGE: IMPOSSIBLE

zhongli will put a hand to his mouth in a silent oh, my gesture, but shakes his head afterwards. ]

How despicable... I will get out of your way, then, ladies, and make sure to report any suspicious activity to security while doing my duties. We simply can't have such horrible behavior on board the ship. [ to the burger security girl: ] I will return later with a burger for you, once I have finished my first set of duties for the guests.

[ ok byeeeeeeee. elevators please, please elevators. ]

[holyspirits]

[ off you go to the elevators where I will let you reunite with Laurence, assuming that is where you go. ]
