[ Well, at least they're here.

And even better, they recognize her. ]

Of course it'll be fine if I'm here. [ propping a hand on her hip. ]

So, which of you is going to let me know where to find her?

[fujimaru]

There's one voice above the others--it's Holmes, of course it's Holmes--that simply says, Well, now, if we knew where she was, don't you think we would have fetched her already?

[davincible]

[ Oh, the face she makes. ]

Oh, shut up. Can't you at least tell me where you haven't looked?

[fujimaru]

Well, now. There's a bit of a problem with that, at the moment. Your old friend has locked most of us quite out.

[davincible]

[ ... which old friend. Who did this. Which Solomon does she have to snap in half--

Ugh. ]

Most, but not all of you. And probably not me. So it's an expedition then, huh?

[fujimaru]

Alas, yes! Of course he also sounds amused, but she knows he's an asshole like that. The only place any of us have gotten through is the cafeteria, and that's not where you'll find your clues. Think, now, where would Miss Fujimaru decide to hide anything that matters to her?

[davincible]

Her room.

... Well, given that Serenity or Kiyohime aren't among your numbers right now.

[fujimaru]

Haha! They certainly did attempt to volunteer! I'd suggest you not take overly long, in case we lose track of them.

[davincible]

Right, right. Off I go.

[ And she's going to trot up the stairs to investigate the doors. If it's Ritsuka's room she's looking for, she's going to concentrate to see if she can sense which of the doors contains the strongest trace of her, through their Master/Servant connection. ]

[fujimaru]

They are perfectly normal looking doors! They've got little keycard locks next to them, though when he approaches any one, the light beeps from red to green. They don't appear to be actually locked.

Because she is the one person with the actual cheat codes, she can tell that the top door of the four is the one she wants.

[davincible]

... Aha.

[ Top door it is! ]

[fujimaru]

The door opens.
