[ She debates for a bit whether or not to do this with voice or audio, but she feels too shaky for either, and eventually loses patience with herself and the debate. ]

I've been asked by some friends of his to share information that Vision found about the ritual and how it might go. Might have to go.

I'm pretty sure we're all familiar with the prophecy by now, but if not, you can look at it here.

Vision found three things. First is that this thing, the ritual, the 12th of November kept coming up as the most significant time to do it.

Second is that the more imPorts who are there, the better chance it has of working. So show up if you can.

The third is the bell. There are two in Jeopardy it could apply to. The first one is the most obvious choice, the bell in the cathedral of the spider cult church. The other one is the Justice Building, which is apparently pretty much decorative. He wasn't sure if we're supposed to ring the bell at 3am on the night of the full moon, or if we ring the bell to get things started.

I did some of my own research, too.


[ There's a pause here, while she puts together her thoughts. ]

The rock known as the Altar out in the National Park near Jeopardy has no apparent connection to anything. No important myths, no significant legends. There's whispers about it being a place where people used to be sacrificed to guarantee crop growth, but I couldn't find anything else tying it to the prophecy.

The other thing. The twins. I tried to find out what I could about them. Their names are Layla and Sally Clapp. They aren't mystical. They're just two ordinary little girls. They dress differently so people will tell them apart, even though their parents want them to dress the same. They like spiders. They read books about them. They play kid games and have kid imaginations.

So who knows if they actually saw something or not. Who knows if they have some mystical connection to what's happening. They're a convenient fit to the prophecy. That's all.

[ Great. Now he's actually thinking about what this could look like, and he really doesn't like this. ]

How do you attune yourself to a kid? And how do you know these things wouldn't just jump from you to them anyway?

And what the hell am I supposed to do if you get possessed and try to fight me?

Can't we just... get a couple glass jars and write TWIN ONE and TWIN TWO on them in big block letters instead? [ He's joking, but there's a real question under it. There has to be another way. ]

[ Ugh. He lets out a hard breath. ]

I get it.

You know I get it. It's been driving me nuts knowing that I've got - what? The equivalence of a shuttle service as a power set? I don't even know how I'd fight you, Jess.

[ What's he going to do against the Force? Let alone a god possession? ]

I just - I'd rather it'd be me. I--

[ He cut off, biting his cheek. ]

Just be careful, alright? And I'm going with you.

My treat.

[ He can't bring himself to respond to the rest. She's right. Of course she figured he would. They're Black Squadron.

Even if they're all that's left of it. ]


I'll take you to Zozzled. I could - I could use a couple hours off, anyway.

No. Head to my place - there's, uh, a dress code.

I think I have something that'll fit you, though.
