[Hmm... There's a bit of disappointment there, too. Goodbye, Luminol.]

... I see. Do you recall what the note said, Kiyomitsu-san? And how long ago you received it?

[slashay]

[Goodbye, luminol... A tragedy.]

I got the first note on a Tuesday in the afternoon, back on the week Buzen died. It said something like "use this spray to uncover the truth of evidence that's been washed away". Then I got a text from an unknown number this Tuesday. Basically said "someone bestowed you a gift, don't let it go to waste."

[The vibe is both guilty and Even More Frustrated. HE TRIED, MAN... HE TRIED.]

[pura]

So about two weeks ago... [She furrows her brows, concern poking through.] And after you received that text this week, you got the sense this was your last opportunity to use it?

[slashay]

Pretty much, yeah. So whoever else has stuff, it's probably got an expiration date, too.

[A little nod.]

[pura]

... That's not good.

Then, whatever Yasusada-san and Jiuqing's items do, they will need to use them soon.

[slashay]

Most likely, yeah. I think Yasusada's gonna try asking everyone for their ideas on what to use his for next time we do a group meeting... If Jiuqing's anything like mine, she'll get a heads up before hers stops working, too, so she'll be able to let everyone know that trial without worrying about tipping off any future refracted.

[pura]

So, I should be receiving an expiration date for mine sometime soon too...

What a pain in the ass.

[slashay]

Ah - you got something, too?

[The vibe is one of sympathy, because "what a pain in the ass" HE FEELS IT! HE FEELS IT!!!]

[pura]

[She nods.]

I brought it up when we all got together, to Yasusada-san.

[slashay]

[me sleeping through town halls and not backreading]

Ah - yeah. Mm... You might have one, then. But at least you should probably get a warning if you're getting close to the expiration.

[pura]

We'll see. It's nothing as helpful as what everyone else seemed to get, anyway... So the group won't be affected if I allow it to go to waste.

[slashay]

[An empathetic look.]

Yeah... Still sucks to feel like you got something and couldn't figure out when or how to use it, though. [HE KNOWS.] I wonder how they pick who to send this stuff to, anyway.

[pura]

Hm... Who knows? Might be something to ask the residents about, if you haven't already.

[slashay]

I don't think they even know where it comes from, so they definitely wouldn't know why people end up with 'em.

[A little sigh, followed by a shrug. A MYSTERY...]

[pura]

[She sighs.]

How frustrating.
