[He reads it over once. Twice.]

None of these other names sound familiar.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Nope. But get this - the name Esther was was born with is the name snake lady's using now.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

...

Some power play then.

If there is meaning behind it, we need to figure out who is her Haman.

[crossmyheartandhope]

And who her king is.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

I doubt it's Lady Lies by this story.

Who else has the kind of power?

[crossmyheartandhope]

Not Azzy, if all those rumors were true. He's got less power than P does.

King of Hell, maybe?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Perhaps. Though we don't know much of him outside of his title.

Actually, we know very little about any Prince or King outside of the ones that touch this production.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Yeah. Feels like we oughtta have less blank spaces by now, but...

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

But no one wants to give me an org chart. So they're doing it on purpose.

Whatever.

We can find out on our own.

[crossmyheartandhope]

We got more than we used to, anyway.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Exactly.

Now about the other issue---

[May be pointedly looking at Hurricane's leg. What a downgrade from what he had.]

[crossmyheartandhope]

...hey, it's up and running, right?

[Digging through his stuff for one more thing. He passes it Intensity's way.]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Hurricane, do you even sleep?

But this is probably the best distraction tactic to use on Intensity so he leaves the issue of the leg alone for the moment]

And what's this?

[crossmyheartandhope]

I stole it outta the house.

[He stole a lot of things out of the house. But this is the copy of The Magus that was in the library.]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Blink at it for a few moments, turning to the pages that it was laid open to at the House.]

I see.

...

Do you think you could hold onto this copy for me?

[crossmyheartandhope]

Sure.

[Blinks back at him. That was an odd phrasing.]

That mean you grabbed one, too?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Angel did from the last run of the House. The last time I saw it, it was with A.

But Angel recites it from memory when stressed so it's not like I need a physical copy.

It could help you with your research. Especially now that a few more names are familiar to us.

[crossmyheartandhope]

...oh. Right, sure.

I'll hold onto this one, then.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Maybe leave it out on the paladin coffee table. Could be good reading material for the rest of them.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Don't really got a coffee table, but I can start passing it around when I'm done if you think it'll help.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Your unit seemed rather interested in getting in on all of this after the whole Liar Hell escapade, so yes.

I think the more informed they are, the better.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Kay. I'll start handing it around.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Sighs]

Now can we move on to the matter of your new leg?

[crossmyheartandhope]

Ah - right. Sorry, dude.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Give him a second to fish it out from its shelf. It looks a lot like his usual leg as Intensity tried to match the look and material]

Try it on.
