[lockdownmods]

[it’s strange, for the people who were already dead, the shift in scenery is sudden and complete. For those who have just arrived? It’s like you’re back where you left?

How strange.

But if you ever need her, you can always reach out to the guardian of this place.]

[the heck

She's turning this thing upside down and sideways, squinting at it closely.]

...Did one of you just throw this out or something?

[recodified]

[ There's a gathering of Twolegs... ]

...Well, are you going to tell me what it says? I assume it's got your scribbles.

[12d3]

It ain't any scribbles I've ever seen before.

[Of course why the fuck would 2-D know what encrypted messages are he's got bricks for brains.]

[supportrole]

It's some kind of code, isn't it? Like a cryptogram puzzle.

[curseoclock]

Ooh, is someone writing codes?

[did someone order a dark mage plus head because that's what you're getting folks, only on lockdown]

[recodified]

Henry! Don't play with your prey.

[ she's probably told him this like five times smh ]

[curseoclock]

Awwww. But if we're cracking a code, isn't it important that we all...

[pause for effect. lifting the head up.]

...put our heads together?

[recodified]

[ The growl she responds with sounds very much like a groan. ]

Must you...?

[curseoclock]

Oh, I must!

[recodified]

[ SIGH. ]

Carry on, then. [ why is the twoleg she likes the most so weird ]

[supportrole]

Did you really have to bring that...?

[curseoclock]

Yeah-huh.

If this is like an impromptu group meeting, we should have the whole group.

["What about actual Grantaire?" What about actual Grantaire.]

[12d3]

....why... w-why is he just a head?

[EVERYONE ELSE HAS BODIES?!]

[curseoclock]

Would it be better if he was just a body?

[12d3]

...maybe?

[at least bodies dont look at you with Dead Cold Eyes]

[itwasfeyt]

Wh-why do you still have that?!

[THAT SHOULDN'T BE ALLOWED]

[curseoclock]

Ha ha, I dunno, weird, huh?

So come on, what's with this code?

[supportrole]

I think it's a letter substitution one. You can tell because whenever there's a letter by itself, it's always the same one -- Q. So it's got to be a substitution for an I or A, I'd think.

[ Reads through it again-- ]

Oh, probably I. I don't think any sentence would end with "a", right?

[curseoclock]

Mmmm, yeah, that makes sense. Okay, so...

How would someone end a sentence with I?

[supportrole]

Mm... Maybe some kind of old fashioned phrasing?

[ like "thou art I" or something haha ]

--Well, no, it's a question, and the word before it is two letters, so. Probably "am I?" for the last part, right? And if that's an A, this word can't be "where", so... "what", I guess.

[ ARE YOU ALL FOLLOWING THIS ]

[curseoclock]

Makes sense to me. That's one of the likeliest words for it to be and still fit, right?

[...is he actually taking this seriously]

So then there's a buncha letters we can fill out earlier in the note.

[itwasfeyt]

Maybe, if it wasn't a finished sentence?

[supportrole]

There's an ending punctuation mark at the end though, you wouldn't have that if it wasn't finished.

[12d3]

What about.. O? Lots of words end with O or-- or U!
