I think... right now, I think Caleb-san said it really well during the trial. I don't really give a shit about people's hurt feelings when we've got stuff to do. If they don't want to talk about it, too bad. We're not gonna get anywhere if we don't communicate.
[ this is a little rich when you think about ichiro and his complete and utter communication breakdown with samatoki but you know? he's not angry at everyone in this place right now so therefore he can think with a clear head. ]
I was saving my vouchers up to get the Blessing of Hephaestus back, so I'd have a way to fight back if someone targeted me, you know? But my friend Piper - daughter of Aphrodite - has this ability called "charmspeak." It's... not perfect, I guess, but it's pretty powerful. She's stole a BMW with it, and - she might have brought our friend back to life with it once?
[ details unclear. ]
It's like the power of persuasion. She could tell you to do something, and you would just want to do it. Maybe something like that could help us here.
...Find out if you can get it. When we do our usual info meeting - bring it up, and I bet people will pool for it. Winter's generous.
[ because if it's gonna help, they've all shown they're willing to help each other. ] I didn't do my stupid extra credit this week, so I doubt I'm gonna get many, but I'll help if I can.

We're all stronger together. That's fact.

...Hey. Do you know if Vi can get us powers that we didn't have before, if we have enough vouchers?
no subject
[ thinking... ] I mean, probably. I don't have any, and I still was able to get my item for trial. Why, what're you thinking?

he looks a little surprised, but nods... it's not like, unheard of in fiction to do something like that? he doesn't know. ]
...It'd mess with somebody's mind, so it would probably be expensive. But it's worth a shot, right?
no subject
...Probably. I don't have a lot of vouchers, either, so it would take some time to get it, but... we need all the help we can get, right?
[ gods, he wishes piper was here. she'd have probably gotten it back already, she'd have gotten the details out of caiman or byleth way earlier. ]

[ frustrating... ]
But - yeah, it won't hurt to ask, anyway. If nothing else, maybe I can get the magic for my tool belt back and build a polygraph, or something.
