[ he is just making such a baffled face at the two of them at this point. what the fuck is wrong with virgo. he does not know enough about virgo to say anything ]
[ it's half muttered, because he's bad at people by near design and he still has not managed to be that bad, god damn. both of them. he shakes his head. ]
... Aquarius, right. Like I said, I mentioned people had found a journal and were pretty sure it was theirs. They said if everyone was convinced, then it must be. [ he pauses, mulling over something, but he doesn't continue right away ]
[ okay. okay, so. he like, literally stares blankly at them and then stands up and walks away to the bathroom suite and into his room. cloud is just going to walk away for a second. excuse him.
the rooms are soundproof and nothing can be heard in there. ]
[ hello he's back. someone let him in he knocked. anyway im going to skip one of them letting him in to him carrying some playing cards now! wow! that was abrupt just for some cards! haha! ]
Forget about Aquarius and the journal, never mind. [ he sounds a little annoyed, but this is not that new for cloud? anyway, heshowsthemthecards ]
Cards, before I forget. Last one is from the casino. Other four were in the pack. The fifth was Taako, but I gave it to Lup yesterday.
[ WHAT journal, only cards now. ignore that he's still looking a little frowny, but when jason says he recognizes the shisengumi cloud nods ]
When Jason pointed himself out, and you mentioned you thought it was just people from here... These have got to all be people who were in places like these. The Realm, the island, the station, the camp, the village, the ... color place-- whatever. There's been a ton of them. And he's got us all as playing cards. Because we're a game.
[It’s good she does this because he was about to start pacing again probably.
Okay, he is going!
Except, he shoots his other hand out to grab Cloud and now they are both being dragged back to bed. He has to let go to carefully settle, but it’s fine.]
Hang onto them just in case. They might be collecting cards, but I don’t trust a single goddamn thing in this shithole.

He glances at Cloud.]
Well, they obviously wouldn’t admit to it being theirs and break character. That’d be stupid.

GESTURES AT CLOUD WALKING OFF. WHY DOES CLOUD GET TO STAND AND WALK AROUND AND HE CAN’T?! Besides being injured.
He gives Lup a weird wtf was that about? look.]
Maybe he’s bringing a gun back to finally shoot me.
no subject
she also looks startled???]
Shut up. [she says, distractedly, with no heat in it whatsoever.] What... did I say something?

[God dammit! The journal! He is distracted by the cards. He doesn’t know a single—wait. He points at the shinsengumi.]
This guy was on the island. He looked a little different.
no subject
she looks sort of like, concerned? or like, a lot concerned... she glances at jason, frowning... and then looks back at cloud.
she does shift to show them the taako card she is keeping on her. as well as the estelle card.]
I got Estelle from the casino. I don't recognize any of these people.

off the bed and goes to grab jason's hand and pulls him back to the fucking bed she is NO LONGER ASKING.]
... Yeah. That makes sense. [she says quietly, putting her taako card back into her pocket.] It is a game. This is all entertainment to him.
no subject
[ people's hostages. he doesn't finish that and instead watches lup pull jason to the bed ]
But other than that, I doubt these mean or do anything.

[she huffs, as she - now has both of them, thank you jason. she crawls onto the bed and settles herself between the two of them.]
No fidgeting or I'm going to have to do something drastic. [she informs them.]
no subject
Doubt anyone would ever have enough money to buy all the trading cards we'd need to get all of them.
[ he'll settle down with them and shrug ]
... I'll tell you guys what the other group got when I get it. [ pointedly never talking about the journal again ]
no subject
He ends up putting his hand on her anyway.]
Alright. Hopefully, it's not hangman.
