[ Roxana cannot see the number of tokens on the app, but she can recognize the app. She remembers what Jiuqing told her, about what she wants from the app, and she can only hope she receives it.

I'll take a water, thank you.
[ She is calm on the surface, and underneath, it's a sense of grimness. ]
We didn't have a repeat.

I'm trying very hard to believe it. We managed to once.

And if the prism really does adjust itself to our feelings and our desires, maybe believing in it will make it easier for my luck to be good when I use the machine tomorrow.
...I was thinking about it, and it can't just be an old note that got left behind that someone put up there after finding it. A lot of the phrases on there seem jumbled up, but... you saw the part that looked like it had initials, too, didn't you? They fit some of our names.
[...actually - ]
Sir Aymeric had a theory. He and I both noticed our initials on there, and we both wrote letters and left them in the box in the backalley last week. There was an "RA" on there... did you do the same, Miss Roxana?
I'm not sure... I guess that might depend on where the note on the meeting hall door originated from.
...it could be something else, though. I'm not sure what, but - being in danger was just a theory. We don't really have anything to say what it is one way or another.
Everything on there seemed like it was sort of... mixed up, or out of order. Many of the lines didn't seem to have anything to do with the ones they were near.

[she pulls a second bottle of mineral water out of the fridge, closes the door, and crosses the room to pass it to her.]
Which means we'll be able to help the other person, next week.
[she seems pretty determined.]

[ She takes the water but doesn't drink from it just yet. ]
You seem very sure we'll be able to.

I don't want your belief to be betrayed. If you do manage to get it, or if you know of someone who does, do you have an idea of who to use it on?

All right. Good luck, Jiuqing.

Smash the prism to bits?

I agree. Jiuqing, what do you think about that note that got put up on the Meeting Hall door?

I've been trying to figure out what they all had in common, but I haven't seen a commonality yet.

[well, so much for that theory...]
He also wondered if perhaps the people whose initials were listed there were in some kind of danger...

[ Things that can't be damaged or removed.... what does it mean? ]
I wish there was more to indicate if it's connected to anything else on that note.
no subject
Perhaps it's some sort of puzzle?
no subject
[ since some of them were cut off.... ]
It'll be difficult to put them in order.
no subject
A lot of the phrases we do have don't really seem to fit with each other, either. Which will make it harder, too.
