[Amelia's here, having come here together with Livio. She offers Nahida a faint smile in greeting -- it's not as bright as her usual smiles, but it's an attempt. She looks a little concerned at Nahida, though, and follows Livio's greeting with...]
No, I didn't see him. But, um... there was a llama? [her brow furrows] ...it helped me investigate. It's actually what found him, first.
[help.]
I found a remote in a pile of salt, but it was broken. I think it... might have been from the second laser cannon. There was a hole in the wall, too. A big one...
...and that probably means whoever owned it didn't tell anyone that they did, or they would have taken more care to hide the evidence of its use. I really don't know why someone wouldn't just put something like that in their warehouse.
People might have assumed the hole in the wall was made by mining equipment otherwise... although it was really big.
Maybe. I have a picture of the hole, although it's mostly focused on the blood that was near it. If you got a picture of the hole in the ceiling, we could compare them to see if the edges look similar.
[...]
I'm not sure if we need to go back. It was a big mine, and there was a lot of ground to cover.
[and we found the body like 2 minutes before the investigations ended]

[ he will get sweets for them both and himself, since he knows nahida in particular has a huge sweet tooth ]
Hey, Nahida.
no subject
How are you feeling...?
no subject
[she tries to smile back, but - yeah, it doesn't really look quite right. it is an attempt, though.]
...well... I'm not happy. But I don't think any of us are. [she sighs.] I'm sorry. He was your teammate...
[poor sweet innocent(?) simon...]
no subject
... Thanks. It's complicated with Simon, though. [ tilting his head a bit at her ] As I think you know.
[ no point in beating around the bush ]
no subject
... Yeah.
I really wish we could have talked about it properly.
no subject
Yes... I know it's complicated. [...] But, still... even knowing that, I'm sure it doesn't make it hurt any less for the two of you.
no subject
At least he was an adult.
[ unlike val. setsu is 18 but the teens are still kind of kids in livio's eyes ]
no subject
... Even after I knew, there were times when I'd start to think it all had to be a mistake... I mean, everything still felt so normal between us...
no subject
...did he end up telling you himself? Or...
no subject

So that's where...
[She had wondered.]
Was there any sign of Money?
no subject
No, I didn't see him. But, um... there was a llama? [her brow furrows] ...it helped me investigate. It's actually what found him, first.

no subject
The laser cannon....
[ they never did figure out who bought it ]
no subject
Those cannons were really expensive... I don't think Simon could have bought it. So it must have belonged to whoever he encountered there...
no subject
People might have assumed the hole in the wall was made by mining equipment otherwise... although it was really big.
no subject
Do you think anyone needs to go back? [ if they do they can always do a quick drill to rule it out ]
no subject
I wonder if a laser cannon could have blasted that big hole in the ceiling... in the tunnel with the lava.

no subject
We'll have to go back to the tunnels, I'm sure. Amelia and I had to fight a giant slug creature to get Setsu's body.
no subject
Yeah... I think there were a couple things near the geyser that we didn't get a good look at.
no subject
no subject
It's not a big deal. We were able to get Setsu out of its mouth.
[ trying to change the subject before nahida Fusses ]

[Amelia just yells suddenly, then looks at Livio's arm in concern.]
That's right, your arm got chomped real bad! Did you get anyone to heal you!?
no subject
no subject
Vash healed it. It's really fine, you two.... I already fought one earlier this week....
no subject
[she is relieved to see it's a little better, though.]
no subject
...I agree with Amelia.
no subject
I had to be careful with my psychs, and I didn't have any weapons on me.. it was a small space...
no subject
[ok no it looks like she's just having fun with teasing him now.]
