Neither would I, but it still means things will get messy. It may not be as simple as Firefly, or even Claude.

[trifocal]

Not as simple...?

[outdistanced]

...It sounded like she told Yves what happened herself. And they used that candy I had to make Claude confess. I'd be surprised if it's that easy this weekend.

[trifocal]

... I see. I hope we may have more items to help, but we will have to be thorough with the evidence.

Are you able to use that whistle any more?

[outdistanced]

Someone had another bear like I did, right? Maybe that, if they're okay with using it, but I don't know if there'll be anything else...

I can use it one more time. But even that can only help so much, if we can even narrow anything down enough.

[trifocal]

How does it work? I know that you were able to clear some names with it previously...

[outdistanced]

The whistle? If they're lying when I blow it, it'll just say "liar" over their head.

[trifocal]

... Understood. We must use it thoughtfully. We're quite fortunate to have had such a tool on hand.

[outdistanced]

Yeah... I'm glad it's helped at all. It'd be nice if we could get more things like it, though.

[trifocal]

I have not found any myself, but I am sure that somebody must have.

[outdistanced]

If they have, no one's mentioned it to me. Yves and I didn't find anything useful this week, either. Just a bunch of weird stuff and these glasses that let you spy on people. Creepy.

[trifocal]

Oh... Wait, there are glasses for that? When I found something similar, it was a blue flame...

[outdistanced]

...Okay. Weird that there are multiple items just for this purpose. They're definitely glasses.

[trifocal]

Perhaps they are different...

The one that I found could only view the healing souls.

[outdistanced]

Oh. Yeah, in that case, they are. I think ours were just for the people here. It didn't say anything about the lost-- healing souls.

[trifocal]

I suppose the glasses would be less useful, since we can simply go and see one another whenever we like...

[outdistanced]

Well, they're for spying, so... Theoretically they could be used to see something someone wouldn't normally say or do with you. But that's why I didn't want them - it felt weird.

Seeing the lost souls is definitely better reassurance they're doing okay.

[trifocal]

[ she nods, smiling a little. ]

True. If there was anything I wished to know about one of you so badly, I would simply ask.

[outdistanced]

...You always did seem a little too direct for something like that.

[ he likes her for that? couldn't be him though. ]

The only good use I could think of for it would be like... if we missed someone afflicted, you know? But even then, you'd have to get real lucky to get that kind of information out of it.

[trifocal]

Yes... It is unlikely that one would confide in anyone else, when we all know that the afflicted cannot be left alone...

[outdistanced]

It sounded like Firefly did, but that was before we heard back about that. I'd be surprised if it happened again.

So we'll just have to work harder, I guess.
