WEBVTT 1 00:00:02.919 --> 00:00:08.000 Welcome to town, Avra. I'm gonna bother you for the greater good of 2 00:00:08.039 --> 00:00:13.199 cryptic kind. I guess you didn't tell them everything. Then it's not a 3 00:00:13.240 --> 00:00:17.800 bad idea, Okay. I think we're gonna need a change of plants. 4 00:00:21.039 --> 00:00:44.079 Season five, Episode one, Watershed. Everything is wrong in Water's Edge everything. 5 00:00:45.159 --> 00:00:48.679 Over the course of barely two weeks, every aspect of this town and 6 00:00:48.759 --> 00:00:53.479 my life in it, has been turned on its head. Every crypted inexistence 7 00:00:53.600 --> 00:00:58.799 knows who I really am, a human bringing doom, and a large percentage 8 00:00:58.840 --> 00:01:03.240 of them probably wish the Kendy went through with their plans, and I live 9 00:01:03.240 --> 00:01:07.439 in a town full of them for now, at least that may change once 10 00:01:07.480 --> 00:01:11.400 the High Council gets a hold of me. As soon as they found out, 11 00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:15.159 the High Council ordered the WPD to lock down the entrances to the island, 12 00:01:15.680 --> 00:01:19.200 meaning that everyone commuting out to mainland jobs or school has to go through 13 00:01:19.280 --> 00:01:23.799 daily checks to get in and out. They also called for a meeting with 14 00:01:23.840 --> 00:01:29.319 representatives from all the crypted Cape towns, of which they'll be presiding over in 15 00:01:29.359 --> 00:01:34.640 our very owned city hall two days from now. Can't wait. Town officials 16 00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:38.920 around the world were promptly filled in on all the shit that's happened, the 17 00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:45.840 discovery of the prophecy, Kendy's investigation and turned to our side, my humanness. 18 00:01:46.680 --> 00:01:51.040 And now they're all here in some capacity waiting to have a meeting about 19 00:01:52.719 --> 00:01:56.879 something. The High Council hasn't been very clear on what this all town gathering 20 00:01:57.040 --> 00:02:01.120 entails. They refused to tell Kendy anything, though she doubts that they'll bother 21 00:02:01.200 --> 00:02:06.200 trying to erase my mind again at this point, Well, that doesn't really 22 00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:14.520 give me the comfort I wish it did, and I'm still here. Somehow, 23 00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:19.560 I think I've convinced myself that this prophecy has to be true, and 24 00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:23.759 High Council must believe it too, because there's no way i'd still be here 25 00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:27.680 sitting in my office at the weekly just waiting for them to show up if 26 00:02:27.719 --> 00:02:31.439 it weren't for the hands of fate. That's it. Case closed. We're 27 00:02:31.439 --> 00:02:38.719 all doomed, and yet I still have deadlines. I'm staring the end of 28 00:02:38.840 --> 00:02:43.479 days in the face of my life falling apart around me, future completely uncertain, 29 00:02:43.800 --> 00:02:46.240 and I have to pretend like everything's fine so I can keep getting paid. 30 00:02:47.199 --> 00:02:50.360 I have to cover the High council meeting, as if I'm not the 31 00:02:50.400 --> 00:02:53.000 reason it's happening in the first place. I mean, it's not like anyone's 32 00:02:53.000 --> 00:02:55.560 going to read it. No one's going to buy a paper written by the 33 00:02:55.639 --> 00:03:02.919 human that's ruining their lives. Why am I here? Why haven't I ran 34 00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:07.879 yet? I mean, Jenkins wouldn't stop me. Shiah would come with me. 35 00:03:08.039 --> 00:03:10.719 Most of this town hates me, or at the very least doesn't trust 36 00:03:10.759 --> 00:03:15.719 me. There are a million other places I could go where my life would 37 00:03:15.759 --> 00:03:19.360 be just as normal as before I moved here. I would blend right in 38 00:03:19.400 --> 00:03:23.120 and have a boring job and a regular paper with humans that are just as 39 00:03:23.280 --> 00:03:25.680 not special as I am. I wouldn't be on the verge of a panic 40 00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:29.479 attack every time I go out in public, from all the side eyes and 41 00:03:30.159 --> 00:03:36.439 whisperers and pointed looks. I would get away from the near constant danger I've 42 00:03:36.439 --> 00:03:40.919 been in for almost a year now. So why am I still here? 43 00:03:50.000 --> 00:03:53.479 Hello? Avrah, you said you'd be home by now. I need help 44 00:03:53.520 --> 00:03:57.479 making stuff nice for my mom and Reese. I don't know where you keep 45 00:03:57.520 --> 00:04:00.719 the pin sal I don't own pine and saw Sim. I don't even know 46 00:04:00.759 --> 00:04:04.879 what that stuff does. Shya said you two had it under control. I 47 00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:10.439 thought we did, and then civil started panicking. It finally said in that 48 00:04:10.479 --> 00:04:14.360 my mom's going to be here, the first place I've ever lived on my 49 00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:17.040 own. She complains enough about my room back home, and she'll be in 50 00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:20.439 a mood from flying. The last thing I need is for her to question 51 00:04:20.480 --> 00:04:24.120 me living on my own and trying to convince me to move back in. 52 00:04:25.160 --> 00:04:30.240 Breathe, It'll be fine. It's offs house anyway. If she doesn't like 53 00:04:30.279 --> 00:04:33.079 anything, just blame her. Wow. Thanks, you keep the house super 54 00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:40.120 clean and nice off. I love living here, really, but Lucinda notices 55 00:04:40.199 --> 00:04:45.360 everything. Not that there's really even anything to notice, since everything's so great, 56 00:04:45.519 --> 00:04:48.720 but she'd find something even if it wasn't really there. And it's okay, 57 00:04:48.759 --> 00:04:51.600 I was joking. The house could stand to be a bit cleaner. 58 00:04:51.639 --> 00:04:55.959 I know. I think it's great how it is. Then why are we 59 00:04:56.000 --> 00:05:00.240 still cleaning? Well? Because it's fine, sib, I know what you 60 00:05:00.240 --> 00:05:05.279 mean. Living clean and parents visiting clean are two very different things. What 61 00:05:05.319 --> 00:05:10.439 else is there to do? Gotta mop the floors, clear out some room 62 00:05:10.480 --> 00:05:14.480 for Reese's blow up mattress, take the garbage out, clean the oh my 63 00:05:14.600 --> 00:05:16.680 god, the roast. I never put the roast in. It's in the 64 00:05:16.720 --> 00:05:21.519 oven. Should be ready at seven thirty sharp. Really, Oh you are 65 00:05:21.639 --> 00:05:30.600 life saver? Shya? Hello? Hello? The party squad is a rive, 66 00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:41.160 boy, not the party squad, Not tonight? Why not? Reese's 67 00:05:41.199 --> 00:05:44.720 coming to town. The whole gang's back together? Are plus my mother? 68 00:05:45.480 --> 00:05:48.879 Loosen the can party? I mean, speaking of the whole gang? Where's 69 00:05:48.920 --> 00:05:54.720 off here on the phone? Still at work? Well, you better get 70 00:05:54.759 --> 00:05:58.079 your butt over here soon, or we'll be hosting a party at your house 71 00:05:58.120 --> 00:06:01.879 without you. It's not a party. I'm finishing a little more work and 72 00:06:01.879 --> 00:06:05.519 then I'll head home, I promise. Oh. I know for a fact 73 00:06:05.560 --> 00:06:10.000 you're not doing anything productive with the High Council in town. But that's not 74 00:06:10.120 --> 00:06:15.079 true. Really, what have you gotten done since they arrived yesterday? I 75 00:06:15.480 --> 00:06:19.319 changed the layout on page three and then I changed it back. Sounds about 76 00:06:19.399 --> 00:06:25.800 right, Come on, off, we brought Charkouerie. Well I can't say 77 00:06:25.839 --> 00:06:30.040 no to little cheeses. I'll head out in a minute. Yay. Oh 78 00:06:30.120 --> 00:06:33.519 thank god? Seeven? If you love drive safe, we'll do see you 79 00:06:33.600 --> 00:06:46.000 soon. I guess there are some good reasons why I'm still here. Oh 80 00:06:46.079 --> 00:06:49.600 my god Reese. So what did you end up doing? Well? I 81 00:06:49.639 --> 00:06:54.319 gave her a form. I mean it wasn't the right form, but I 82 00:06:54.360 --> 00:06:58.199 mean she got something. And then I got to figure out why someone was 83 00:06:58.240 --> 00:07:04.720 submitting information but a law bird on a small business tax document. I might 84 00:07:04.759 --> 00:07:09.560 not have been the best choice for your replacement. So hey, half the 85 00:07:09.600 --> 00:07:13.879 time I didn't know what I was doing either. Isn't that like all jobs, 86 00:07:14.319 --> 00:07:16.879 new ones, at least fake it till you make it right, unless 87 00:07:16.879 --> 00:07:20.160 you're a nurse like Shaya, and then you probably shouldn't do that. That's 88 00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:28.319 what residencies for. Well, I'm glad to see everyone's in good spirits despite 89 00:07:28.360 --> 00:07:32.240 the circumstances. Me to bring down the mood. Mom, someone needs to 90 00:07:32.279 --> 00:07:36.439 address the elephant in the room. I think we're doing a fine job ignoring 91 00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:41.560 it. Hey, maybe I should make a little elephant trunk to wear to 92 00:07:41.560 --> 00:07:46.439 the High Council meeting. Embrace it. It's nothing against you, Avra. 93 00:07:46.040 --> 00:07:50.639 I'm glad that you folks all seem to be faring all right on the surface. 94 00:07:50.959 --> 00:07:58.560 But is everything still you know safe? Mom, We're fine. I'm 95 00:07:58.600 --> 00:08:03.040 just concerned for you, all of you. This whole High Council business and 96 00:08:03.160 --> 00:08:07.519 the demon possession with that poor girl, it's a lot. How was she 97 00:08:07.600 --> 00:08:11.639 doing, by the way, Jacqueline was it? Her name is Juliette, 98 00:08:13.160 --> 00:08:18.879 juliet right right? I don't really know. Actually, after her possession, 99 00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:20.680 I made sure she was physically all right. But you know, that was 100 00:08:20.680 --> 00:08:26.120 almost two weeks ago. Offers usually in touch with her most usually. I 101 00:08:26.120 --> 00:08:31.000 haven't seen her since everything went down. Actually Ben had her and mar over 102 00:08:31.120 --> 00:08:33.240 a couple of nights ago. I didn't talk to her much, but she 103 00:08:33.320 --> 00:08:39.919 seemed fine all things considered. Oh that's good, Thank goodness. I can't 104 00:08:39.960 --> 00:08:46.080 believe we're dealing with demons and sea monsters and towns being exposed, and this 105 00:08:46.159 --> 00:08:52.480 whole prophecy with we have a cake? Should Should I go get the cake? 106 00:08:52.919 --> 00:08:56.759 You make cake? No? We bought a cake, chocolate, strawberry. 107 00:08:58.240 --> 00:09:01.080 Oh I'd like some cake, me too? Do you want help with 108 00:09:01.120 --> 00:09:09.720 it? Sure? Everybody want a piece? Reese? I probably shouldn't allergic 109 00:09:09.759 --> 00:09:13.519 to strawberry. Oh my god, I completely forgot. It's okay, I 110 00:09:13.559 --> 00:09:18.080 don't need cake. How about I go grab something else? Oh? No, 111 00:09:18.279 --> 00:09:20.840 Auvrey, you don't have to No, no, I insist, I'm 112 00:09:20.879 --> 00:09:22.240 not gonna make you sit here and watch the rest of us heat. But 113 00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:26.720 really you don't need to big pie right peach, blueberry apple or something like 114 00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:33.120 that. Mm I do love a blueberry pie. But really it's no buts. 115 00:09:33.519 --> 00:09:37.440 It'll take ten minutes, not even you want us to come with you. 116 00:09:37.000 --> 00:09:46.720 I've got it. I'll be right back. Excuse me, sir, 117 00:09:46.960 --> 00:09:50.840 Can you tell me what i'le the salad dressing is in? Yes? Oh, 118 00:09:50.879 --> 00:09:54.559 hey, guys, what are you doing here? Just thought we'd surprise 119 00:09:54.639 --> 00:09:58.600 you during your shift and we had this, a new weird flavor of orios 120 00:09:58.639 --> 00:10:07.679 watch stocking frutios of fun. Did you expect my restocking job to be exciting? 121 00:10:07.559 --> 00:10:11.679 I guess not. How's it been so far? Nothing crazy, which 122 00:10:11.759 --> 00:10:16.000 is honestly a nice break from everything else. I've only had a few shifts 123 00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:22.120 though. Discover any dark secrets about the world of grocery stores, Not yet, 124 00:10:22.559 --> 00:10:26.559 but I don't know if there are many, you'd be surprised. I 125 00:10:26.639 --> 00:10:30.519 read an article once about all the ways grocery stores secretly manipulate you to make 126 00:10:30.559 --> 00:10:33.960 you buy more. Does it explain why they cycle through the same fifteen songs 127 00:10:35.000 --> 00:10:39.159 every hour? Actually it does. It has all to do with the oh 128 00:10:39.200 --> 00:10:45.279 what's wrong? Hold on, why are you hiding behind the restock cars? 129 00:10:45.799 --> 00:10:50.399 I saw someone I don't want to see right now? Who was this? 130 00:10:50.519 --> 00:10:54.600 One of the High Council members. No, keep your voices down. It 131 00:10:54.679 --> 00:10:58.639 was Ovra. Why are you hiding from Ovra? I'm not hiding. I 132 00:10:58.720 --> 00:11:05.799 just I haven't seen her since everything happened, since I gave up her secret. 133 00:11:05.559 --> 00:11:11.759 Oh right, it wasn't you, Jules. That's what thus had. 134 00:11:11.799 --> 00:11:15.720 You possessed. Avra knows that, but getting possessed was still my fault. 135 00:11:16.240 --> 00:11:20.159 Not really well, I still feel guilty for it, and I just don't 136 00:11:20.159 --> 00:11:22.679 want to see her right now. If you talk to her, I'm sure 137 00:11:22.720 --> 00:11:31.000 everything would be fine. Yeah it's Avrah, I know, but Juliet see 138 00:11:31.120 --> 00:11:33.960 later. Ben, come on, Maury, where are we going? We're 139 00:11:35.000 --> 00:11:39.720 leaving. We haven't gotten the fun oreos yet. We can get them later. 140 00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:43.960 I didn't walk all the way here to not try the very smoothie oreos. 141 00:11:43.120 --> 00:11:52.720 Juliets, come on, they're like two aisles over. Fine, m 142 00:11:54.639 --> 00:11:58.480 I don't see them anywhere. They must not have them. Oh well, 143 00:11:58.679 --> 00:12:03.000 let's leave, not so fast. They might be on an end's cap. 144 00:12:03.600 --> 00:12:05.919 You go look down there. I'll check the ones in front, Marie, 145 00:12:07.200 --> 00:12:18.840 I want to leave, not without my orios. But I, oh my 146 00:12:18.840 --> 00:12:22.320 gosh, I'm so sorry. I wasn't looking for going in Ovra. Hey, 147 00:12:24.320 --> 00:12:28.559 how are you? I haven't seen you since in like two weeks we 148 00:12:28.679 --> 00:12:35.960 postponed mentoring. Yeah, have your parents changed their minds yet about what you 149 00:12:37.000 --> 00:12:41.600 said? They weren't happy with the mentoring because of all the Oh right, 150 00:12:41.720 --> 00:12:48.799 yeah, not yet. Sorry, Okay, you know, if your parents 151 00:12:50.039 --> 00:12:52.639 don't want you associated with me, you can tell me. I understand. 152 00:12:54.120 --> 00:12:58.639 Why did you say it like that? Like what? Like weird? I 153 00:12:58.679 --> 00:13:01.200 don't know, because I don't know what's going on with you. You never 154 00:13:01.279 --> 00:13:03.759 listen to your parents rules. If you've really wanted to keep meeting up, 155 00:13:03.799 --> 00:13:07.440 you would have figured out ten different ways to do it already. Well, 156 00:13:07.480 --> 00:13:09.399 I don't know why you'd want me around anyway, since I ruined your life. 157 00:13:11.080 --> 00:13:13.600 That's what this is about. Well, duh. I don't know how 158 00:13:13.600 --> 00:13:18.279 many sories are required for making a deal with a demon that exposed your deepest, 159 00:13:18.360 --> 00:13:22.360 darkest secret and threatened your life and ruin everything. But I don't think 160 00:13:22.399 --> 00:13:26.000 there's enough time in the average pixie life to save them all. I just 161 00:13:26.039 --> 00:13:28.840 assumed you'd want me gone, Juliet, I don't blame you for any of 162 00:13:28.840 --> 00:13:33.679 this. Well you should. I fucked up really bad, so did I. 163 00:13:35.399 --> 00:13:41.159 It doesn't matter. I forgive you you do of course. Also, 164 00:13:41.399 --> 00:13:45.519 as your mentor, it is my responsibility to scold you for cursing, especially 165 00:13:45.559 --> 00:13:52.200 in a grocery store. That is fucking unacceptable. Sorry, I was avoiding 166 00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:54.600 you. No more sorries, No need to dwell on what already happened, 167 00:13:54.600 --> 00:13:58.600 when there is plenty we can worry about in the present, like finding a 168 00:13:58.679 --> 00:14:03.159 pie and getting back to the party. I'm avoiding Who's party? Who send 169 00:14:03.200 --> 00:14:09.240 in Reese's or mine? Kind of? I don't know they're here, arrived 170 00:14:09.279 --> 00:14:13.080 earlier today. Yeah, I thought Lucinda and Reese were nice, at least 171 00:14:13.120 --> 00:14:16.559 from what Sybil said about them. Oh, yeah, they're great. It's 172 00:14:16.600 --> 00:14:18.919 just it's a little hard to be the current event of the century, I 173 00:14:18.919 --> 00:14:26.720 guess. Oh yeah. Every conversation comes back to the meeting or the prophecy 174 00:14:26.879 --> 00:14:31.879 or Kenny's investigation. I needed a break and a pie. Looks good. 175 00:14:33.639 --> 00:14:37.320 You were going to talk about the meeting, weren't you. I don't have 176 00:14:37.440 --> 00:14:43.919 to, It's fine, you're going. I think I have to you. 177 00:14:43.960 --> 00:14:48.360 Yeah, I managed to convince my parents to let me skip school. Impressive, 178 00:14:48.720 --> 00:14:52.679 and to do that. They think it'll be a good lesson on how 179 00:14:52.679 --> 00:14:56.240 political systems work in times of crisis. They also like it when I support 180 00:14:56.279 --> 00:15:01.879 my friends, so they aren't upset about me being a human. I go 181 00:15:01.960 --> 00:15:03.840 to school with a bunch of humans, Abraa. If my parents had a 182 00:15:03.879 --> 00:15:07.200 problem with it, they probably wouldn't have let it happen. I don't think 183 00:15:07.240 --> 00:15:11.759 your classmates are prophesized to be your doom though. They don't believe in any 184 00:15:11.799 --> 00:15:15.480 of that stuff. They're pixies, but they also both work in stem They 185 00:15:15.519 --> 00:15:18.240 aren't the kind of people to believe in fate, or at least not the 186 00:15:18.320 --> 00:15:22.840 kind of can't change jewels. We found them and was hiding them from us. 187 00:15:22.200 --> 00:15:28.240 I was not. I barely know where anything is here. I'll let 188 00:15:28.240 --> 00:15:31.120 you get back to your friends. Okay, good luck with the party, 189 00:15:31.639 --> 00:15:39.519 Thanks, abrah Yeah. Would you have time for a mentoring thing next week? 190 00:15:39.399 --> 00:15:50.799 Yeah? Yeah, I'm sure we can figure something out. All right, 191 00:15:52.279 --> 00:15:56.840 My mom is gone. Time to break out the alcohol. Cheers to 192 00:15:56.919 --> 00:16:02.399 that. I'm at had been concerned about the way you handle stress, my 193 00:16:02.480 --> 00:16:07.480 love, especially considering it seems hereditary. Hey, but we could talk healthy 194 00:16:07.480 --> 00:16:11.519 copy mechanisms after this week's over. Let's see if Julius is still willing to 195 00:16:11.559 --> 00:16:14.080 have me as a client or else. I'm going to have to find someone 196 00:16:14.120 --> 00:16:18.000 else to trauma dump on. That's why we're here. You guys are my 197 00:16:18.080 --> 00:16:22.639 friends, not my therapist. We can be both for now, as long 198 00:16:22.679 --> 00:16:29.200 as that goes both ways. Because I need to vent corred ahead. I'd 199 00:16:29.240 --> 00:16:33.120 love to hear about problems that aren't my fault for once. Excellent, because 200 00:16:33.200 --> 00:16:37.200 I am so completely done with my dad's stupid restaurant and with Roxy. I 201 00:16:37.279 --> 00:16:41.759 thought she wasn't involved anymore. She wasn't. That ship sailed in my dad's 202 00:16:41.759 --> 00:16:45.360 mind when the human hunt started, and now that he's seen how bad Ovres 203 00:16:45.360 --> 00:16:49.000 had it over the past couple of weeks, he definitely doesn't want anyone from 204 00:16:49.000 --> 00:16:52.600 our family involved in stuff going on in Water's Edge, especially not Roxy, 205 00:16:55.039 --> 00:17:00.440 who's Roxy Francie's sister, one of several that made my life a living hell 206 00:17:00.519 --> 00:17:03.720 for sixteen years. Oh, come on, you love Roxy? Not right 207 00:17:03.759 --> 00:17:07.880 now? She was talking to my dad about the restaurant and my plans on 208 00:17:07.079 --> 00:17:10.640 how to run things when I actually take it over at the end of the 209 00:17:10.640 --> 00:17:15.880 summer and she had some issues. Well, she did go to culinary school 210 00:17:17.640 --> 00:17:22.599 and minored in business, so yeah, she's perfect in every way and clearly 211 00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:25.480 the better option. Yeah, we get it. But she calls my dad 212 00:17:25.519 --> 00:17:27.759 and tells him about all the ways I'm fucking things up and why everything I'm 213 00:17:27.759 --> 00:17:32.519 planning is going to fail, and why she's the way better choice to take 214 00:17:32.559 --> 00:17:37.599 over the restaurant, And then they both call me to explain how business works 215 00:17:37.119 --> 00:17:41.119 is if I don't basically run hopping Water already. Wait, so do you 216 00:17:41.160 --> 00:17:47.279 want to run the restaurant or No? No, absolutely not, But ROXY 217 00:17:47.319 --> 00:17:51.200 can't either, and no one else or my family can. Dad isn't going 218 00:17:51.200 --> 00:17:52.880 to retire until he can leave it to one of us, and I'm the 219 00:17:52.920 --> 00:17:56.119 only one. My dad's getting older, and I don't want to be the 220 00:17:56.160 --> 00:18:00.720 reason he has to keep working. But Rock he knows all of this, 221 00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:03.119 And no, she can't run the place herself because she's human. So instead 222 00:18:03.200 --> 00:18:06.680 she's just telling my dad all the ways I'm going to destroy his business from 223 00:18:06.680 --> 00:18:08.640 the inside out because I'm not his perfect daughter who went to culinary school. 224 00:18:10.319 --> 00:18:15.240 Oh that's rough, and not getting to see Caleb during like the three days 225 00:18:15.279 --> 00:18:18.839 we weren't on citywide lockdown is just the cherry on top of this garbage Sunday. 226 00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:25.799 I know it's nothing compared to the bigger stuff we're dealing with, but 227 00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:32.880 it's not nothing. It's a lot and it sucks. Hey. Maybe whatever 228 00:18:32.920 --> 00:18:36.640 the council decides to do will make your dad consider bringing your sister back in. 229 00:18:37.599 --> 00:18:41.279 Maybe, But that sounds like a long shot. Hey, sometimes long 230 00:18:41.319 --> 00:18:48.000 shots hit, like my job interviews. Wait, what did you get a 231 00:18:48.079 --> 00:18:52.000 job? Well, not yet, but I did get asked to interview for 232 00:18:52.119 --> 00:18:56.359 three places. I know we're supposed to be venting, but I just I'm 233 00:18:56.400 --> 00:19:02.759 so excited. Lizzie, that's great. Congratulations. Yeay, it is so 234 00:19:02.880 --> 00:19:07.119 nice to hear some good news. Where have you been applying to? Oh, 235 00:19:07.279 --> 00:19:11.319 lots of different places. Some entry level stuff in local government on the 236 00:19:11.319 --> 00:19:15.400 mainland, a few activism groups that are pretty big in the area, the 237 00:19:15.519 --> 00:19:19.319 census. I've got some interviews lined up for two of the local government ones, 238 00:19:19.400 --> 00:19:23.319 and then one for administration work at a group that helps worker unions when 239 00:19:23.359 --> 00:19:29.119 they're just starting up. That sounds really cool. Yeah, fingers crossed on 240 00:19:29.200 --> 00:19:33.960 that one. Oh, I hope so I'm also hoping that working on the 241 00:19:33.000 --> 00:19:37.759 mainland won't continue to be such a hassle Ben said that just getting to school 242 00:19:37.839 --> 00:19:41.880 is taking almost half an hour longer each way because of the island checkpoints that 243 00:19:41.920 --> 00:19:45.839 were set up. Of course, now that I finally got my o Brews 244 00:19:45.920 --> 00:19:49.920 under control and don't have to deal with surprise visions, there is another thing 245 00:19:51.039 --> 00:19:53.799 making it harder for me to find a place to work. So they can't 246 00:19:53.880 --> 00:19:57.039 keep that stuff up for long. Yeah, once the High Council is gone, 247 00:19:57.079 --> 00:20:00.319 it'll go back to normal. It's not like they can cut us off 248 00:20:00.359 --> 00:20:03.279 forever. What about you, Reese, What have you been up to besides 249 00:20:03.440 --> 00:20:08.079 terrorizing everyone who needs anything done at the Mayor's office. Of course I got 250 00:20:08.119 --> 00:20:12.359 the hang of it eventually, kind of, although I cannot wait for you 251 00:20:12.400 --> 00:20:18.039 to get back. Your mom likes things done in very particular ways, and 252 00:20:18.200 --> 00:20:22.960 I never know what those ways are. Usually she likes things done the right 253 00:20:23.039 --> 00:20:29.839 way. Okay, I try, it's just not for me though. It's 254 00:20:29.920 --> 00:20:33.279 not for me either, but I don't know how to break that to her 255 00:20:33.400 --> 00:20:37.440 yet. But seriously, how have things been back home? Well, they've 256 00:20:37.480 --> 00:20:42.480 been all right. Rebuilding efforts are still going strong. And the town's looking 257 00:20:42.480 --> 00:20:47.000 way better for it. We got some residence in from calmar Lock, like 258 00:20:47.039 --> 00:20:49.279 you guys did, and some of them have decided to stay permanently, so 259 00:20:49.440 --> 00:20:53.599 that's brought some fun new people to the area. We have a good fish 260 00:20:53.599 --> 00:20:59.079 and chips place now, it's just it's so good, and they serve a 261 00:20:59.119 --> 00:21:03.759 full Scottish break fist on the weekends, Big fan. Everything was actually settling 262 00:21:03.799 --> 00:21:08.440 down well until recently. People in Comralock knew already though, didn't they. 263 00:21:10.279 --> 00:21:14.839 Some of them knew that Ovrea was human, mainly missus Webber, but I 264 00:21:14.839 --> 00:21:18.279 don't think people really believed her, and the people who did weren't really concerned. 265 00:21:18.319 --> 00:21:22.359 After you left, none of us knew about the prophecy stuff. Though. 266 00:21:23.119 --> 00:21:27.720 We don't have to talk about this if you don't want to, Ava, 267 00:21:29.480 --> 00:21:33.079 No, it's it's fine. Wait. So at dinner, Lucinda mentioned 268 00:21:33.119 --> 00:21:37.039 that you guys got fed the whole spiel from the High Council. Did all 269 00:21:37.079 --> 00:21:41.039 of Bluff get that too? At first? Just Lucinda and I did, 270 00:21:41.440 --> 00:21:47.000 and I barely got in on that meeting the council. Let Lucinda spread the 271 00:21:47.039 --> 00:21:51.240 word after, but we were the only two to directly talk to them. 272 00:21:51.400 --> 00:21:56.119 You talked to the council. Yeah, what are they like? Hard to 273 00:21:56.160 --> 00:22:03.119 describe. There are a group of fives, but they're all of some ancient 274 00:22:03.240 --> 00:22:07.240 type and claim they've been alive long enough to see the rise and fall of 275 00:22:07.279 --> 00:22:11.480 the last age of cryptids. They said, the same warning signs are all 276 00:22:11.519 --> 00:22:17.799 there, what with intercrypted problems like Nessie and Lygia, exposures like comra lock, 277 00:22:18.240 --> 00:22:22.640 and they're really convinced that Ovre's causing it all. How they know she's 278 00:22:22.759 --> 00:22:27.039 human? What are they claiming she can do? Even if ov was encrypted. 279 00:22:27.200 --> 00:22:30.920 It's not like any of us would be able to raise a sleeping monster 280 00:22:30.279 --> 00:22:34.920 or convince Lagia to kill people. And Avra obviously didn't go to Scotland to 281 00:22:36.000 --> 00:22:41.799 expose comra lock. They think your presence is causing some sort of imbalance. 282 00:22:41.039 --> 00:22:48.200 Av They want a clear separation between crypted and human communities, like zero interaction. 283 00:22:49.000 --> 00:22:53.359 I mean they're from hun Maday, I guess that's obvious, but they've 284 00:22:53.359 --> 00:22:57.039 been against it from the start and have been monitoring all the towns since their 285 00:22:57.039 --> 00:23:03.839 foundings. But it seems impossible unless we want to figure out how to do 286 00:23:03.440 --> 00:23:08.160 literally everything on our own. He and Midday has been able to do it 287 00:23:08.880 --> 00:23:14.599 only because they have a population thirty times the size of ours. They must 288 00:23:14.640 --> 00:23:18.440 have some plan they aren't sharing. They definitely do. Lucinda tried to get 289 00:23:18.440 --> 00:23:22.240 them to talk when we were on the phone with them, But the High 290 00:23:22.319 --> 00:23:26.599 Council is kg with their plans. Not sure why, but they aren't saying 291 00:23:26.599 --> 00:23:30.359 a thing until that meeting tomorrow. Did they say anything about what they're planning 292 00:23:30.359 --> 00:23:34.519 on doing with me? What we all know if they came all this way 293 00:23:34.559 --> 00:23:37.440 here, they're not going to just leave me be. I'd rather know now 294 00:23:37.480 --> 00:23:44.960 if they're planning on offering me Alfrah. I'm just being realistic. They're not 295 00:23:45.079 --> 00:23:48.720 going to kill you. Lucinda asked about what their intentions were with you, 296 00:23:48.799 --> 00:23:55.000 and they said they had a plan. That sounds bad. Not necessarily, 297 00:23:55.359 --> 00:24:00.279 the High Council knows you're an important piece in this whole doomsday puzzle. They 298 00:24:00.319 --> 00:24:03.160 won't just get rid of you. They probably want to use you, or 299 00:24:03.359 --> 00:24:07.400 at the very least see why you're affecting things the way you are. Yeah, 300 00:24:07.440 --> 00:24:12.680 the main question is how or where do you think they'll bring me back 301 00:24:12.680 --> 00:24:18.599 to human day. I don't know. All of this is just assumptions off 302 00:24:18.599 --> 00:24:22.039 of the cryptic things that they were willing to tell me. Sybil probably knows 303 00:24:22.079 --> 00:24:26.599 more about it than I do. Why me, you're close with that investigator 304 00:24:26.640 --> 00:24:32.119 now right? She hasn't said anything to you about it. We're not close. 305 00:24:32.319 --> 00:24:37.279 I mean, Kendy was just helping me learn magic, that's all. 306 00:24:37.920 --> 00:24:41.160 I haven't even talked since that day at the hospital. You haven't, No, 307 00:24:42.720 --> 00:24:47.400 Why is that surprising? Do you talk to Roger every day? Well? 308 00:24:47.480 --> 00:24:53.400 No, but I thought, never mind. Wait have any of you 309 00:24:53.480 --> 00:24:59.640 talked to Kendy since then? I talked to her briefly, like week and 310 00:24:59.640 --> 00:25:03.759 a half ago. I haven't heard anything since. Why do we even know 311 00:25:03.960 --> 00:25:08.480 if she's okay? Like I know, we don't love her, but she 312 00:25:08.599 --> 00:25:12.759 did go against her hometown and her scary superiors to save your life off. 313 00:25:14.480 --> 00:25:22.680 No one's seen her around town. Nothing that doesn't sound good. Maybe one 314 00:25:22.720 --> 00:25:26.680 of us should. I'll get it. Were we waiting for someone else? 315 00:25:27.119 --> 00:25:34.200 Not that I was aware of? Hello? Um, can I help you? 316 00:25:36.160 --> 00:25:40.880 Is this the nun Year's residence? Can I ask who you are? 317 00:25:41.000 --> 00:25:47.079 First? My name is High Council Member Aloovo. I'm here on behalf of 318 00:25:47.079 --> 00:25:51.799 the rest of my Council to talk to avrahnun Yez. Is this her residence? 319 00:25:52.759 --> 00:25:56.240 It is, but she's busy at the moment. Can I pass on 320 00:25:56.279 --> 00:26:03.920 a message? And who are you? Her roommate? Fine? Tell Ava 321 00:26:03.000 --> 00:26:07.319 News that she is required to be at the All Town meeting tomorrow for its 322 00:26:07.400 --> 00:26:11.319 duration. She's also required to sit in a pre marked spot in the front 323 00:26:11.400 --> 00:26:15.359 row next to a traitorous former investigator. If she does not arrive on her 324 00:26:15.359 --> 00:26:22.960 own accord, we will ensure she attends regardless. Okay, I'll pass that 325 00:26:22.039 --> 00:26:45.440 along.
