Rule 17 hits like a gutpunch. The plan she'd talked about, as improbable as it already was, had just become much harder.

But something - someone - digs its heels in inside her, the same way it did prior to their most recent trial. The presence of their latest, insurmountable hurdle, has the odd effect of only making Youko more determined.

They're going to win.

There's hot soup, rice, and tea in the kitchen. We're holding a meeting tomorrow morning in the conference room. I want you to be there.

- Youko

[ Those are Jean's thought exactly, fortunately. Tabby may not be around anymore, but... ]

... Right. We can go through both of them tonight. [ Jean will be glad to check out a room that won't be as emotionally charged to shuffle through, honestly.

But there's no point in trying to delay it any longer. Jean sets off for Mordecai's room, feeling a little bit like he's walking towards his execution. ] Did she tell you what she left for you?

No, but it'd be nice if she left behind some of those flashbangs. [ ... Not that they'll be useful in two IC days, but it's the thought that counts. ] And she also has been stealing shit this whole time, right? She's probably got a pretty decent stash of useful stuff.
