Guys.

Me, Milo and Ree were in the Atrium, but we just got teleported across to the Aesthetic Magic room - is anyone else out there?

Oh yeah, and a ghost did the teleporting, but, you know, probably a lot of that going on right now.

We got o=2. Does anyone know s, h or e? We've got a four letter puzzle box for a clue and Milo is certain it's referring to when Bianca lost her shoe in the Grotto.

Why thank you, Tremblay. You just knocked my 10,000 options to 100, assuming I've got the right answer in mind. Time to get to clicking, I suppose.

I'm just hoping someone's got our other letters or this might take a while.

We just found the name of a constellation, too, I think? Seems like a ton of people are getting those.

Who're you with?

Me Tess and Robin

Hey, Park. You guys all OK? Making any progress?

Got two numbers to Eldercreech's box so I guess that's progress.

What's your constellation?

Two already? That's good going. We just got our first because of the damn ghost teacher we came across.

BOÖTES.

Well l=8 if you need it

So what the hell is bootes

And there's a dead teacher? What

I'll write it down for future reference. Thanks. We're looking for S-H-2-E right now. At least, we're pretty damn sure anyway.

Damned if I know, never took Astronomy. If it IS common in navigation though, that probably means something.

Robes on and everything.

Sort of on.

It was creepy as fuck. But to be fair did not harm us.

The herdsman. He and his dogs follow Ursa Minor and Major.

Hmm. I bet someone can figure out the link between all of this.

It's myself, Tess, Chris and Robin.

Yes, from the looks of it, there are plenty of five letter constellations showing up. I do wonder what the significance is?

Me, Ree and Milo. We're certain our clue is leading us to Bianca, and we have a four letter puzzle box. Our constellation we just found is six letters, though.

BOÖTES

now that ones popular af in navigation

It is? That's interesting. I wonder if the location the constellations are in means anything? We didn't have one in the Atrium.

got an actual fuckton of bright ass stars so fuckin everyone who ever saw a shape in the stars is like "ya ok theres def something there"

seems like they been in classrooms so far

Right, so ours was in Aesthetic Magic. I'm going to go looking around to see what others got found, maybe seeing them all written in the same place might help.

cetus lupus hydra aries is what I seen

OK, so it's not numbers of letters matching those in the boxes, then.

We need an Astronomy student to plot those things on a chart and see if there's something obvious there. Maybe they mark spots where people are or the boundaries of where they are if you join them up, or something.

Has anyone found someone yet? That can be the control point.

youd be a lucky fuck if all you needed was an astro student but i aint exactly got charts in ramirez's fuckin jorts pockets

Doesn't Tess have notes somewhere?

Hmm. Well that mixes things up a bit, then? I suppose we'll see if there was a pattern at all.

Stars are not my area of expertise, sadly, so I'm hoping someone else can help work that part out.

On the hunt for two specific letters, huh.

Yes. I and N, but I also have less than 50 combinations left to try, so hopefully I'll be filling in those gaps for others, soon, as well.

Boy, do I have a present for you.

Well, it's about time I get to opening this box, then. Whatever's inside, hopefully it takes me to my brother. Thank you [...] so much.

I'm pretty sure I is 7. Did you get that yet?

I would like to add that there's a Something in the Atrium, upstairs. It was really scary looking but not...I don't know, it kept its word and didn't hurt us. I think.

To be honest I'm not quite sure WHAT we traded but it helped us like it said it would.

Sounds like every room has a ghost of some sort.

Hi Ree. Essie's with us. She's okay.

Oh thank Merlin. Ok. Give her a huge fucking hug for me?

Will do. Hopefully you'll be able to give her one, yourself, soon.

Yeah. If the ghosts don't eat us. Hahaha that's only kind of a joke?

After what we saw on the road to the Grotto [...] I'm not so sure.

What did you see?

It was a boy, all torn up and bloody. He attacked Bash even though we tried to reason with him. Tackled him. [...] Bash is okay.

Shit. Now our ghost seems positively sweet.

I only got a verbal hug.

We'll scold him later when we're not, you know, on a desperate mission to save everyone we care about from supernatural evil.

Hanging in there, pretty?

Running around desperate hasn't worked out so great for us.

So I'm finally reading my journal while the boys show off how strong they are with this cabinet.

I don't know, I feel like me and my boys are doing ok so far. That said, our ghost only sounded creepy, put us under a cloak and transported us with an answer inside our heads, so we haven't had it as bad as some.

Ooh, cabinet-wrangling. Sexy.
