you would have to make
heat lines
the wavey lines

[guestservices]

~ ~ ~
Like those?

[preowned]

yes!
when you see them next to food, doesn't it mean it is hot?

[guestservices]

I think so?
Or that it smells good.
Probably the first though.

[preowned]

if it smells good then we should probably add something like
sparkles!

[guestservices]

Or stars! Three of them to indicate it's a perfect dish.

[wait.]

Sparkles seem a bit trivial.

[preowned]

[ nyeheh ]

maybe we can make it less sparkles

[guestservices]

Less sparkles will suffice if there isn't a less...trivial way of depicting the point.

[preowned]

maybe....
in any case, it is good to have short hands for talking to others right?
it will make things go faster for you

[guestservices]

Like secret codes?
Yes, I suppose so.
As long as you know what the short hand actually means and you aren't just making things up...

[preowned]

oh
right
both parties should know

[guestservices]

[. . .]

...
Tsurumaru, have you had much practice in getting your messages across to parties who may not understand?

[preowned]

i am learning!
i think one problem is that no matter what, people are always going to question the information
so it's just trying to get around that

[guestservices]

Difficult to trust a source when you're unsure of where it may be coming from and what the intentions are, certainly.
Perhaps it helps to anticipate questions that may be asked and formulate answers before sharing.

[preowned]

hmm
at the very least if i say my source is the dead, i think they would just back up whatever i say

[guestservices]

True.
And now that you've all begun to receive letters that cover story is a little easier to believe.
Your position isn't easy given it's essentially being a messenger, but you've been doing well enough.

[preowned]

thanks!
but yes, the dead being able to communicate now helps a lot more
i sounded crazy before

[guestservices]

I'm sure there are a few people who think you still sound crazy even now, but that's a risk one must take.
The messages are in alignment with the things they've mentioned to you?

[preowned]

as far as i know...
it's hard to say for sure since i am not privy to every letter that's being sent

[guestservices]

You will simply have to keep sharing with one another.
That is all I can advise.

[preowned]

yes, yes
we will do what we can
it really is all we can do at this point

or any point, i guess

[guestservices]

Just keep that in mind over the next coming weeks, hm?
Some may find it harder to remember than others.

[preowned]

well, i suppose it is hard to shake off any loyalties you feel you owe to certain people
even if it gets in the way of things

[guestservices]

Hm...
Might I ask where your loyalties lie Tsurumaru?

[preowned]

hmmmm
i won't lie and say that the people i am closest to wouldn't be the first to have me behind them
but in general, i have been in these games too many times to focus too much on those things

[ hilariously even with jiji murdered tsuru still did the bare minimum of covering for him. ]
