( attached is, of course, a heavily detailed file with all the various findings up to this point. relevant highlights:
• viveca is from this world! also is the fox. also is the mayor's daughter. • no one has found any trace of the orb. • given the history of the earthquakes and the location of its epicenter, he suspects the orb's involvement there. • the identities and masks of all known members of the fables. • who among the ximilia's crew is likely to support assisting the world, and who is likely to care more about retrieving the orb.
guess who's not mentioning that he's in one of the camps right now tho? this asshole.

If you have not reached out to Wei Wuxian, please do so. It has been nearly a month without contact on our end. He has been concerned.
I have been adequate. The books from your world proved very useful here — I was able to secure a position in the university with little difficulty. Biochemistry.
Regarding his situation: I have access to one of the guard's wristbands that can disable the collars. I am working with Newt to mass produce such devices if possible, so that they can be safely removed.
〈 as for the second half—it is comforting to hear. newt's an oddball, but he knows his shit. and wildly, perhaps, considering what happened not two missions ago, she trusts itachi to do everything in his power to help wei wuxian. 〉
Wish I could help, but turns out I'm a little stuck. All dressed up, and nowhere to go without setting off a few alarms.
Water purification and ever since Viveca beamed us here so I want to say…few hours? My collar's fake, FYI. Still not my preferred look, but a dud is a marked improvement over live, painful shocks. Huh.
Yeah, we’re testing whatever’s infecting the water on one of the spiders. If this were normal, Venom should be unaffected—I don’t even catch colds anymore. It’s breaking down whatever this pathogen, toxin—are water-borne curses a thing? Whatever the source, it’s slow going. Very unlike my goo spider buddy.
〈 and she has a strong suspicion that in sufficient amounts, like say swimming in the reservoir, venom could not break it down quickly enough to survive. which points her to this being orb-related. it’s the only suggestion of its presence she and percy have found thus far. 〉
( hm. that is all interesting to note, and he files it away for later. in the interim — )
Speaking of.
Doctor McCoy is in possession of a scroll into which a vacuum chamber containing the parts of Venom that accompanied us has been sealed. They should be fine once removed.
Long as it's in vacuum, it's safe. I'll link up with the good doc after. Viveca managed to get us in without tripping alarms, but I don't feel like testing my luck just yet.
Viveca gave us a message for Cal. She wants him to know she's sorry and she didn't intend to leave him to fight alone. Helping get that to him is the very least I can do.
〈 and punch viv's dad in her name if/when the opportunity presents itself 😌 〉
un: 10-54. forward-dated to before the big post.
Think you can get me the bullet points for what I've missed?

Already done, he's currently blowing up my notifs.
Dōmo arigatō.
〈 a pause as she skims the info he sent, then— 〉 And how have you been? Not wearing a collar too, are you?
