[hello everyone you have been called to the courtyard once again. today jiji is just going to be having tea, as always.
the tea service has been made to Work today, preparing tea for everyone as well as snacks. delicious.]
Let us begin.
[he hasn't told anyone what they're here for?]

First, an update regarding flowers received last week. [a recap for futaba and also people without memories (me):] On Monday eve, my room received a bouquet with flowers meaning 'Falsehood' or 'Deceit', 'Danger' or 'Caution', one meaning 'I'll Still Be Waiting', one meaning 'Thoughts of Those Dearly Departed', and one final flower containing multiple meanings. After some inquiry, my dear crane also received a bouquet containing flowers meaning 'Gratitude' and 'Encouragement'. In addition, Estelle received a bouquet similarly containing messages of 'Good Luck', though one in particular meant 'Sweet Be Thy Dreams'. Given that meaning, I do believe one of my flowers to also mean 'Sweet Dreams'.
After discussion, we decided to place an arrangement of flowers upon the graves last Wednesday - and later that day, Estelle received another bouquet. Thus I believe it apt to believe that these are flowers from the departed, and they will be making further attempts to communicate with us. There may be some danger where they are, and there might be some reason to believe that dreams are very important to the fabric of this place.
Second, another update regarding the keys distributed. At present, I have been informed that as many as seven keys being used to access rooms - so I think it safe to assume that all eight from the housekeeping room were given out. These rooms lead to different rooms of the staff, but discussing the matter with the staff prompts them to be unsure why the keys were sent out to begin with.
Third, the notes being left behind. Shadows leave those they possess after trial. Do not steal from the deceased. Those affected by shadow may not recall Thursday night. I shall also add that now I can say with some confidence that we are dealing with two shadows each week, and should anticipate two more again to act this weekend.
Fourth, there is a theory that has been proposed. [from his sleeve, he will pull out some sheets of paper that are just an abbreviated version of this. it's addressed to tsuru at the top, so it's a written version that jiji did from memory. all vital information is intact but some parts are just 'notes of frustration' because he didn't care to recall the exact wording.] A copy of the journal entry recovered by Sheila and the others a few weeks ago - all staff are named in it aside from dear Aquarius, and when asked, Aquarius stated, 'well if everyone thinks I wrote it, it must be me'. An obvious answer.
But curious, isn't it? Given that in previous weeks, we were not given such obvious answers in regards to our hangman and chart. Thus prompting a question: should we lean on the obvious answer when it is the only one we have, when it does not otherwise match what we know of those involved?
[a thoughtful hum]
I do not believe I possess a fifth this week, though I would be curious to know what was found in your excursions, my dears. [a nod to shinobu and futaba]

[ and here she's been just angrily folding flowers with no particular thought in mind ]
I guess I switch from folding ofuda flowers, huh?. But we split the three we got! Mine was talking about how one of them and Aquarius got wasted and made that hot or not chart that popped up? And agreed that Orion is very hot. Which is stupid when they're all in veils and I can't get in on this...! [ futaba please focus, ]

[ just. nods along with dimitri. what he said! ]
Sounds like Aquarius, all right...

This all started with a dream, didn't it?
[ it's food for thought. ]
Okumura-kun does have a third sheet. I can try to recreate it from memory, if you would like me to, but...
[ she fishes out a piece of paper from her haori sleeve. ]
The handwriting is similar to the previous ones.

Something about not being lonely....... ?

[ on a notepad, with a pen, she writes:
H (a scribble to indicate something had been blocked out)
Oh, shit, you're gonna kill me.
I'm sorry. (more scribbles) ok?
And stay alive. Please.
(more scribbles) ]
It was the same handwriting as on the one I received.
