@ Stone, audio | December 5

Who's shitting great idea was it to show some people something out in the middle of the lake and then kill them when they try to find it again?

[The querulous old man voice is currently very angry-sounding. There's a weird rumbling in the background of his voice. Stone might actually be... growling? Yeah, he's definitely growling.]

Did anyone see what did it? I want to find whatever that was and tear their throat out.

[He's a bit bloodthirsty when he's pissed off. Sorry, kids.]

[ Asking if he's all right seems a bit tactless, so Elizabeth opts for a something more benign. ]

I'm sorry you went through that. I didn't see anything, but... is there anything else I can do?

[scarsolderthanyou]

No. I don't think so, anyway. Is there something we're supposed to do after we die again? I've never done this before.

[isochrone]

I... well... I could give you some information on various cultures' funerary customs, but somehow I don't think that's what you meant.

How does one die if they're already dead, I wonder?

[scarsolderthanyou]

No, I don't think I need a funeral. I'm back, alive-ish and well-ish.

I guess the same way we came back to life here after dying the first time. If the mechanism works once, it'll work again.
