He is definitely a miserable pile of secrets.

But also, I... I want to know what he knows and has known for two hundred years.

[Sure he's had research and information about the rituals and Elias will eventually know how to summon them here, but. If there's anything to the opposite... He'd keep it close, Jonah feels like. Well hidden. Jonah wants it.]

... That makes sense. While he's there, there'd be no way to find it, I'm pretty sure. Like... trying to quit.

Exactly.

Who knows what else he's been sitting on for two centuries.

Doooo you have a suspicion?

[He hesitates thinking. It's... Hard to put into words because of the force that wants to keep him silent. Hide the secrets away, never let them be seen. Make Jonah wonder forever. His words are a bit stuttery, unsure.]

If... I-i mean, he knew. About the rituals of the entities, so he- [He catches his breath, trying not to be too obvious how hard this is to vocalize. It almost hurts.] He must. Have had information about them. And if he has that then- There.

[Breathe.]

There must be. Something there about. Getting rid of th-them.

[It does look hard. It looks like he's choking on the words or chewing glass to get them out and-]

God... if there IS...

Okay. Okay, yeah.

[He pointedly doesn't bring up that if they could ever get rid of the entities, that he'd... probably not survive. He's too closely connected now, if the Eye ever left him? Nothing would be keeping him alive.

Jonah heaves a heavy sigh of relief just getting that out.]

So. Yes, I... want to examine what he has.

[Would Tim or Algric either, at this point? Would the Eye tell the truth, even if it Knew.]

Yeah. If there's any chance of it. It... would make the world better. Instantly.

...Yes, it would.

So. Please don't burn it down. If you need something to eat, you could always check on Tobias Fisher.

[JUST THAT. ALL CASUAL.]

I mean, not that he's not a complete tit. I'm... not sure what I'm going to do about that.

I feel fine, right now, I think?

For now.

[A sssssslow exhale.]

You'd probably get an easy snack from him though. Algric and I... sort of. Paid him a couple visits.

[A snack. He rubs his face. He hasn't accepted it yet and may not.]

So... what.. was that like?

...Exhilarating? He's- It felt deserved, and in the moment, I absolutely believe he had it coming.

[After, though, well... Torn between guilt of Algric seeing, and then the whiplash of Algric enjoying it...]

He tried to drag your name into it.
