Sam FaceTimed Myla today, said her sibling's doing a lot better! They were well enough to sit up and talk to her!! :DD Myla was so happy. They talked for a while, even after ████ got off the phone.

Myla says they'll be going back home on Sunday. Right, good to know...

[Timestamp: 4:32PM, 17/6/2026. CCTV FOOTAGE: Ness Anne Park.]

A woman with black hair and a woman with dark red hair sit on a park bench under a large tree, chatting about something. The red-haired woman had a bag of roasted peanuts with her, and the two snacked out of it. Though it seems like Trix, sporting her usual gold hair pins and sitting on the left, was more focused on the talk than the snacks, unlike Myla.

"...And then we spent like, two hours debating on which door to take for this puzzle, but then it turns out they all lead to the same room!" The red-haired woman laughed. "Ahh, I can't wait to continue the game! That cliffhanger was just brutal!"

"Haha, yeah! It sounds great!" Trix chuckled, leaning back on the wooden bench.

"Heh, you should see the art that ███ made! They're just phenomenal, here look!" Myla leaned over to show Trix some pictures on their phone. For a few minutes, the two were gushing over the art. "Oh, and Sam painted the minifigures! He was so helpful with helping █████ and █████ make character sheets, not to mention the snacks..."

"Sounds wonderful. I wish I could be there to see," Trix beamed at Myla, who sighed contentedly.

"Yeah. I bet you'd have a great time." Myla looked up at the tree canopy, leaning back and swinging her legs. "I... I bet ████ would too." Their expression wavered, flickering to melancholy. Sensing this, Trix hugged Myla reassuringly from the side.

"They'll be alright. ████ is strong. They'll make it, I'm sure they will."

Myla sniffled, leaning into the hug. "T-thanks, ████..."

A few minutes passed until Myla felt well enough to pull away from the hug. She grabbed a handful of peanuts and snacked on them in silence until—

"Hey Myla? Do you remember what you said a few months ago? That if I helped you get your job at the office, you'd owe me a favour?"

Myla paused in her snacking, tilting her head at Trix. A breeze picked up, the branches rustling overhead.

"...Yeeeeeah?" Myla slowly drew out the word, waiting for Trix to continue.

"Well... I'd like to claim that favour now, please." Trix smiled, glancing at Myla.

Myla's in town!! :D

She wants me to give them a tour!! Well, I don't even really know this town that well, so maybe we can explore together, haha!

Hmm, I'll still have to go back home soon to grab my stuff even though I'll be here for a while... hopefully my flight doesn't get cancelled again tomorrow!! Not that I'll be gone for long, just a day or so anyways...

[bloomingmeitrix]

THEY CANCELLED MY FLIGHT????????

COME. ON. >:((((((

[bloomingmeitrix]

I feel. sick to the stomach.

Oh mygod.

I should just block them. But no, I can't, I have to know what's going on...

This is horrible. I'm going for a walk. Maybe that'll help clear my head.

[bloomingmeitrix]

Mm. I feel even sicker. But I scheduled an interview for today, so I have to go. It's not good to cancel so last minute.

Hopefully Amethyst will let me borrow her car...

The video opens in near complete darkness. Trix sits at a desk, the camera off to the right. Her black hair almost blends into her dark surroundings, and her bangs cover most of her face. Blue light from a laptop shines brightly in front of her. She's wearing black headphones, intently watching whatever's on the screen.

A few minutes later, presumably as the video ended, Trix quietly took off her headphones and places them on the desk. Sitting back in the chair, she sighed heavily, though not out of tiredness. No, it sounded like she was angry, but trying to hold it back. Combined with her crossed arms and how her lips were pursed so tightly, it was almost certain: whatever she just watched can't be good.

"Hah. Some nerve these people have got..." Trix mumbled through gritted teeth. "真的，他们觉得他们是谁？去绑架我的朋友。。。太无耻了。还敢害她？欠揍。。。" A smooth transition between English and Mandarin, sharp and seething.

Trix leaned forward again and clicked on the video, dragging her mouse. Presumably rewinding it. "Gotchu." Trix hissed, staring at the screen she rewound to. "Hmph. I see.." After a few moments of scribbling on a pad of paper, she tore the paper off the pad and jumped at how loud it was, cursing. She looked to the left in the darkness. When nothing happened, she shut the laptop, slamming its lid a little harder than she needed to. Now, the video was shrouded in complete darkness. Footsteps sounded as Trix walked away.

In all my years.

I have never seen something so horrific.

Oh. They're actually letting me talk to him.

That's.. good news, at least.
