Maybe it's a normal name, but split up into three. Or it is three names, but missing pieces.

[shrugs] There's been all kinds of magic here; my brain's starting to default to it.

[ Oh! They could see the logic in those possibilities. However, instead of trying to solve the puzzle, their attention was instead drawn to the fantastical. ]

Really? What kind of magic? Can any students use magic?

[ Turing was not very subtle when something caught their interest. ]

[closewithnewintown]

A couple can! Normally, I mean; a lot of the powers people have aren't really working. I guess it'd make things too easy if we could just burn a hole out of the school, huh?

[begetblue]

[ Magic! Real magic! Not only that, but Stephanie's response made it very clear that this wasn't then sleight-of-hand kind of magic!

Though most of that statement also made it clear that the situation was complicated. ]

Yes, I can see how it would... I wonder why their powers aren't working properly. [ Hmmmm. ] This might sound outlandish, but it is possible that these letters are part of a spell that seals everyone's powers.

[closewithnewintown]

Anything is possible! Especially here.

[hm...] You should bring this to somebody who knows real magic! Noah, maybe... Oh, bring it to Natsume! He'll know what it's for!

[just a completely uncalled for amount of faith in bomb-niisan.]

[begetblue]

Noah and Natsume... I see!

[ Turing seemed convinced though, so that completely uncalled for faith was also being transferred to them. Oops. ]

Thank you very much for your guidance! ...And for telling me that magic exists.

[closewithnewintown]

I'm just glad you believe me! What you wouldn't believe is how many people here are just... I don't know. I think it's denial. They've always thought magic doesn't exist, and they don't wanna be wrong.

Yes... I think I understand what you mean. When you have believed something for so long, it is difficult to acknowledge a new truth.

[ There was also the fact that Turing was a little, uh, gullible. ]

As for believing you, it doesn't seem fair to doubt you when you've given me no reason to!

[this is her new best friend she loves them]

More people around here should have that world view, I think. If we're all gonna work together to get out of here, we need to trust each other, even if some people

[KOKICHI]

aren't interested.

[begetblue]

I agree! We won't be able to make any significant progress if we're suspecting each other instead.

[ Clearly they all need to rise up and defeat and/or overwhelm Kokichi with the Power of Trust and Teamwork ]

If there's something I can do to help you, please let me know! I would like to help you as you've helped me.
