[ molly will rudely ding all the bells for funsies sorry about it if every npc has to appear right now
but thats fine he just follows along, humming slightly and hands casually in his pockets as they get to the desk. before he goes foraging around for paper and a pen. ]
Okay, dear … nightman or to whom …
[ this is really an act of upmost concentration he is not the … best … writer … ]
What, like someone lives in the mailroom? Sad life.
[ he will keep scribbling, one eye narrowed in pure concentration. ]
Rin believes with all of his … heart … and I believe with the head on in my shoulders and my brain inside it … that this door should maybe be opened … post haste? What’s fancier than that?
[He's squinting ever so slightly at that description, but ok.]
Immediately? Or is that too demanding-sounding?
[Anyway, back to these drawers! Top drawer first, he's looking for keys or anything that might be helpful in undoing a lock on a door. Credit cards and nail files will work if he can find them.]
With nothing else found in the drawers, he'll grab a second piece of paper from where Molly got his and start folding it into an envelope shape. On the outside of this he will write 'TO NIGHTMAN OR CURRENT RESIDENT' and draw a fake stamp up in the corner.]
There. Once you finish the letter we can shove it in here!
[ anyway, molly is finishing up his letter. in sum total it reads:
dear niteman or to whom it may concorn
rin believes with all of his heart and I believe with the head in on my shoulders and my brayn inside it that this door should be opyned poshaysteimmeditly FORTYWYTH
we will consider this fair exchaynge for all the murdering and whatnot happening around.
thank you slightly less than kyndly,
mollymauk tealeaf and rin somethingname
He folds it up and sticks it in the envelope. ]
I added "y"s to make it seem more important. I've seen people do that.
another paper plane comes through a series of coalescing shadows, except this time it's still in someone's hand. out steps aquila, still holding the plane, who then throws it so lands in molly's shirt v-neck. ]
Did you know, if you ring the bell once, I'll still show up? You'll make me go deaf - Oh.
[ it'd be so funny if everyone else spent time trying to break down doors and we just asked politely. shame i dont have an olive garden unlimited pasta pass this time. ]
[ rin and molly are left standing there for a good thirty seconds.
and then the letter reappears in molly's hands? but no aquila. there is, however, a stamp on the envelope, and there's a typewritten note on the front that says:

[ though. he takes a very long time here. as if he doesn't quite know how to spell that one. it's fine, probably? ]
We will ... consider this fair exchange ... for all the murdering and whatnot ... happening around us ...

[Rin wholeheartedly believes what Molly is telling him.
Anyway ring ring Aquila]

[ ... ] Rin. Do you two need something?
no subject
Think you can deliver a letter for us?
no subject
Er, yeah. That's what we wanna know.
no subject
Uhhhhhhhhhh. De...pends? To who. Why. [ they hold their hand out for the letter. ]
no subject
[ handing the letter over. ]
To whoever's in charge of locking and unlocking doors. To unlock a door.
no subject
Yeah! We need to go somewhere.
no subject
Where? Show me.
no subject
Oh-- come on then.
[ off to the 5th floor!]
no subject
I'm going to laughcry if asking an NPC is how to get the door open.]
1/2
aquila is silent for a long moment once they reach it. and then, they step past the other two and reach out and touch the door, then the plaque.
. . . something clicks? and they make a little a ha noise, and then, the shadows coalesce around them, and they vanish, letter and all! ]
no subject
and then the letter reappears in molly's hands? but no aquila. there is, however, a stamp on the envelope, and there's a typewritten note on the front that says:
DELIVER IT.
the door awaits! ]
no subject
Should ... Should I be worried about that?
[ HELLO? I guess shooting a look at Rin, that IS slightly worried, and then just. Walkin' through the door I guess. Nothin' else to do about it. ]
no subject
[He DOES carry his sword with him everywhere. (unless it's about to be taken from him.)
...he's going to peek at the letter before they go though, to see if there's a name for delivery or if it's just DELIVER IT.]
no subject
the door is still locked so molly walks into the door face first. bonk.
nothing about the letter has changed. just the fact that it says DELIVER IT on it now. ]
no subject
[ molly just. tries to shove it under the door? I suppose? ]
