... I had said - each of you are certainly doing your best to help in the ways you can.
I suppose it might depend on the information that you seek... It's become evident to me that some matters are only meant to be passed around through each of you, and I am not allowed to deliver it, as much as I would like to.
However if it communication is where the lapse is, we can at the very least try to offer more of it.
[there is a smile]
I normally do not prefer to rely on words in the first place... but when my options are limited, I suppose I must make the phrases I possess bend to my will.

Is this why someone eliminated Swift Wind?
no subject
How would someone receive that information so early?
[it's a little hard for lune to talk about murder motivations unfortunately but please take your hints where he can give them, shess]
no subject
For that matter, where are the deceased even getting their info from?

[just sharing that]
But I suppose that is why I stress the importance of knowing one another.
Your fates are far more intertwined than even the young one and I could've guessed initially.

[wow he loves this]
I asked you a while back about making trades for info. Do you have an answer yet?
no subject
It may count as interference on my part.

I am doing my best to assist you in my own way, my friend.
I only hope that we do not have a repeat of Milla and her gift horse.
[aka lune's hints not getting read correctly]
no subject
[why are you doing this to him when he's in renewed mourning after the boggart incident]
no subject
I have faith in you. That is not a misleading statement, or a hint.

[well,]
