But Natalie was told by the directors that the cabin that burned down was another "residual." I confirmed that with Winter and Heart myself, but neither Natalie nor I know whose residual it is.
[because it can't be Giyuu and Dimitri and Shinobu's right? because they didn't recognize the equipment. . .?]
Which of our locations would have had CCTV screens for surveillance involved? It sounds like there was too much technology involved for either the temple or the castle, and I doubt the island would have had all that many luxuries...
[ ... ]
In any case... it seemed like some sort of doodle, maybe. It's hard to say, because I couldn't look at it for long without my visual functions starting to throw errors at me, and it was blurred beyond recognition outside of a simplistic 'key.' Red was bad, white was good.
Predictably, it was mostly a mess of red, but... it seemed there was a bit of blue in there too?
Yes. And unfortunately, this isn't like those old shows where you can just take an image and run it through a filter while dramatically saying enhance to miraculously recreate the original.
[ if only being a robot were that convenient. ]
That said, I'm not very sure that it looked much like a face, but if you think that's it, then it's interesting that so much of it is apparently labeled 'bad...'
And maybe it's not a face, but I guess their faces are the one thing in this camp I can think of that are purposefully distorted so we can't recognize them.
Vaguely circular, maybe an oval at a slant. That's all I can tell you about it. If you really want to see it for yourself, you can try asking that group again.
[ but she's really not convinced it's a face.
that said, she sighs, and strokes through the fox's fur again. ]
Akira, you've asked what happens if no one dies in any given week already, correct?
I don't know. But we can't assume... bad faith, necessarily. We don't know anything for certain about who they are, after all.
Besides, it's not like I know how far this information's spread, especially considering it obviously seems the Directors are willing to talk if you just ask.
It's such a small, but strangely specific thing...
[ do. do they start needing to figure out a list of what they've asked for??? ]
The rewards we got from the Directors come directly from them, they said, but when I asked whether that was related in any way, I was told they still can't say much. It isn't related to the residuals either, or at least... 'not quite' was the answer I got regarding that question.
[ she offers up a bit of the until-now abandoned feed nearby to the one that's currently using her lap as a pillow first, considering that this was the original reason she was here before getting sidetracked. ]
Stuffed penguin. I think I was seeing a couple of vaguely similar things around. Don't know how I'd ever use it, but it's cute. Why?
A squad shrouded in mystery. ▓▓▓▓▒ has met them once, and others can only guess at the members' identities from rumors. Members of the squad all have advanced AI and high capacity for independent operation. Rumor has it that Squad 404 usually deals with ░▓▒▓▓▓▒▓▓▒▒▒░░

I also talked to Natalie, who asked the directors about that cabin, and. . . some of the directors themselves.

Hey-- do you think it's a picture of one of our counselors? We can't see what they look like under the cloaks and hats and frills, so maybe. . .

Lili confirmed that for me.

They still won't tell me what it is they were removing from what they give us. As far as I know, they can't say much about it at all.

Hey, 45. . . can I ask you what you got last week as a prize? You don't have to answer that if you'd rather not.
