[ Talking at ground level is much preferable to trying to have a conversation while you're up in a tree. Akira is punctual as much as someone can be to something like this, but there is a faltering to his footsteps like a skipped heartbeat once he catches sight of who's on the bench. It's only a blip, his steps even once more as he takes up residence against the tree, that long cloak he's been sporting providing him some measure of camouflage even if it's overly edgy.
Nagako takes up place alongside him, still in her lupine form and still very much alert. ]
Monika flips the page on her notebook just as she looks over her shoulder to get a better look at him. Her voice is still a little rough but, well, that's what the to-go cup of tea next to her is for.]
A connection makes me think of the items the Watchers are linked to. The one we found this week was a pin. And we all came here with something from home, right? So all the dead should have an item. But Roxis said their coins were their anchor, so maybe we don't need to go that far.
Not all of us. Apparently, Allen didn't arrive with anything. [So, that's one theory that's probably out?] But if our coins are our anchors instead... Do you know if the dead kept theirs?

Yes. We only have so much time left, after all.

Yeah, we do.

I have a feather that helps me "find something". I think it has to be material in some way.

When Alisaie sees her, she pauses. She hadn't decided one way or another whether she's prepared to have this conversation. But...
Well. They've only got so long. And Spike's words from execution have stuck with her--they're going to end it.
So she'll come forward to meet her, more subdued than Monika is probably used to.]
Were you the one that wrote the note?

Monika wasn't expecting Alisaie, either, but she offers her a polite smile all the same.]
Yes, that was me. I figured it was better to put it out there now than to wait for the next time we all get together.

Where did this information come from, if I might ask? 'Tis not aught that's been shared publicly, is it...?
