[Dist launches into a detailed description of the blueprint. It's a machine that is shaped like a throne for a subject to sit on, complete with shackles to keep the subject in place. The head is covered up by some sort of windowed brass contraption with lots of circuits and light bulbs.]
The Lady told me that this machine can collect and store the memories, knowledge and consciousness of the subject and transfer them to another person through this. I imagine she used it to inhabit the body that she is now, and will later update her real body with everything she has learned.
[As much as he hates the Lady for everything that's happened, there's no denying that she's a genius.]
I wonder if her real body is somewhere here...? If we can find that, we need to destroy it. We can't allow her to continue hopping between bodies at will.
Now that I do not know. From the message that Erik found, I have my doubts that she'd keep it somewhere we could find it. She does apparently have access to teleportation technology, after all. I believe it would require further investigation, at the very least.
Perhaps there is more to discover at the castle...?
Erik was able to get into her castle, but didn't have time to explore much before Rembrandt caught him. We need a way in and time enough to explore without interruptions. Given what she said to me before, it's possible we can get in through the sewers.
[But also like, eww. Gross.]
I'll share this with the others and we'll see if we can figure something out. The castle is likely where we'll find everything else we need to know.
This was a good talk. I believe we are as caught up as we can be, yes? [Some of it was really awful, but it's good to be caught up.] I look forward to what you bring me next. Even if it is simply to tell me to sleep well.
[Because even here in the Twilight, he needs to sleep. What a rip.]
You're going to have wonderful dreams of me sweeping you off your feet, aren't you? I'm sure your dreams will be pleasant.
[But it helps, and he's certainly going to spend as much time as he can talking to Dist, even about the most unimportant things. It's more or less a lifeline for him at this point.]

I'll get it now.
[He moves his mask and circlet over to the desk with him, carefully opening it up and locating said blueprint. What's going on here?]
I have it. What can you tell me about it?

[Because while this is important, not smelling like sewer is equally important.]
Good plan. I will tune into the meeting if I am able. We are all quite interested in hearing your progress.
[Well. Dist is, anyway. A lot of the Twilight gang are...themselves...]
no subject
[send the good guys in to open the sewers!!]
Of course, Dist. I certainly won't let you down, though I don't know if I can say the same of the others.
[His opinion of most of them was already really low, but last trial just kind of tanked it directly into the ground...]

[At least they delivered...?]
