Here's a picture with a note "No, don't turn out like me", it's only for your own good [W3, Tues]

[zerotohiro]

[Evacuating from his hut seemed like a wise idea when the burning maggots made an appearance and it's for that reason he's down on the beach. Then again, he has a lot on his mind. He clutches the paper in his fist inside his pocket, walking along on the sand before spotting Newt…probably looking for a bucket. It's hard to say. Either way he ends up immediately making a beeline for him and pausing a bit, suddenly unsure of what to say.]

…so. I have a new theory.

[...?????]

Uh. [Newt reads the note over a few times before frowning and handing it back to Hiro.] Does this mean anything to you? Do you even have a burn on your arm?

[zerotohiro]

No, I already checked. [This is the wrong Hamada for a bunch of burns, thank you.] And I don't know what it means. I just found it in my pocket and I know I didn't put it there. So...[Someone else did seems to be the implication here.] But maybe someone else does. Or someone else will.

[completelycrazy]

That's... [He has no idea what that is.] When did you find it? Could someone have, like, slipped it in there while you were sleeping...?

[Creepy!]

[zerotohiro]

Just earlier today. The only person who could have slipped it in there while I was asleep was Yona, and I really doubt she would do that instead of just telling me. Especially since I'm kind of a light sleeper now.

[Have to be! But...] Who knows how it works?

[completelycrazy]

[Okay, he has to laugh a little at the thought of Yona creepily slipping this note into Hiro's pocket while he was asleep. Yeah, she wouldn't do that.]

And no one else could've snuck it in there somehow? Man, that's so weird.

[zerotohiro]

They could have, but I still would have noticed. So unless there's some weird magic going on I've got nothing. But I figured it made more sense to let a few other people know what's up in case it actually does mean something.

[completelycrazy]

Smart. I take it no one else has given you anything useful, either? [This is unsurprising. If Newt and Hiro can't collectively figure it out, it's a lost cause as far as he's concerned.]

I guess we'll just have to keep an eye out for any weird stuff in the days to come. Anything like what's in that note.

[zerotohiro]

Nope. Just asked if I had burns on my arms or anything like that. Nothing so far from what I can tell. But if we have enough eyes out for stuff in the note it might give us a chance to plan better. That's...all I'm hoping for now.

[completelycrazy]

[He nods.] Good call. I'll let you know if I notice anything weird. Maybe it'll lead to something useful in the trial, at least.

[zerotohiro]

Sounds like a good plan to me. [There's a grin before he glances back toward the circle of huts.] I should go make sure Laura didn't do more property damage to my place. I'll catch up with you later?
