[There was nothing weird about that!

Anyway. Going over to try the door! It's those like slidy doors so he's trying to grab and it just open it.

But it absolutely doesn't open.

Hm.

Trying again but harder?]

You're either going to bust the hold of it or fall on your ass if you keep trying like that.

[Turning, sticking his tongue out at him

and trying it again

and then just sort of sliding until his ass does in fact hit the floor and the door remains unopened. Sorry he is just very fucking high it'll wear off after a bit. ]

. . . Alright, I'm willing to consider other solutions.

If an indulgence of some kind won't work, unless there are tools in here to use, besides trying to throw things at it - [ Because Molly is high as a kite, he's going to cut that one off at the pass. ] - then we might be left to wait for it to pass.

Did you bring tools to look at the stars?

[But, looking in his pockets for anything that might be useful? Cards, a gold watch, a gold coin, fidget spinner, little golden crowns--]

Oh, what about the cantrip! Summon us something useful. Or at least edible.

My shovel is back in my room, so no.

[ He can already hear Qingxuan's nagging about it, to be honest. ]

... cantrip? I don't know what that is. [ Still, let's try summoning some things up, kids. ]

[predictably:]

Ming-xiong! You should really keep your spiritual device with you!

It's useless here.

It could potentially lever a door open.

But you never know when it'll come in handy...!

Little magic spell! Where the stuff drops out of the sky.

[Okay . . . thinking. Thinking.]

[a foam nerf sword falls out of the sky.]

Hm. Not sure that's gonna do it.

Fairly sure it won't.

[ thinking... thinking...

PLUNK, a plastic toy screwdriver. Ming Yi sighs heavily. ]

[maybe they have to make out for it to open i mean what]

I guess that wasn't it...?

[I mean, can certainly try?]

. . . Stars 're weird.

[...?

she looks up and - her brow furrows.]

They weren't like that earlier...

Not what I'd call my favorite sign, but-- Ah, reading too much into it, probably.

...reading too much into it...?

[haha! yikes.]

[Oh no, he's seen how she seems to be Having Some Anxiety about the situation so just. Grinning instead.]

Look, I'm sure your friend is right. Just a little problem that'll be fixed soon.

[just be calm... play it cool... be chill... you got any more of that weed, molly?]

I hope so.

[How close is he being watched by ming yi right now because he'll just reach out and squeeze her arm? It'll be fine?]

Do you want anything? Can probably eventually get food if you think about the right thing. You'd be welcome to some of the weed, but . . . [it might

be gone]

. . . I can see the Spear of Nonius, now. It's that cluster, there.

Ah. The warrior. From the poem.

[thinking about

bone frenzy again

and

laughing a little bit]

He was the greatest swordsman my House ever produced, our champion and our pride. Please do not allow one terrible poem about him color your impressions.

I would never. I'm sure his bone frenzies were great and terrible to behold.

[it might be too late]

Just to clarify, he is dead, correct?

Dead for a thousand years, no longer here to suffer these stale jokes.
