I burn the labels from three jars. Does that match the size of the pile of ashes?

You burn the labels from the three jars. That is much smaller.

To put down for reference, melting three jars created the right amount of molten glass.

Looks like you could hear it if you were on the street next to it or by the corners. If you were in the Orange Building, or southeast or northeast of it, you'd miss it.

Bodycheck Kroos

Can we dig through the sodden ashes at the end of the Canal?

Can we also check the metal on both sides of the Livestock Corral canal... water... s-stuff?

You dig through them. You don't find anything in particular hidden within them, but you do take note there is indeed a LARGE quantity.

You check the metal. It appears to match the blown-apart metal keg you found.

The ashes in the river.

Is the supposed remains of the keg... in front of them, or behind them, or what have you?

You bodycheck Kroos. She has a length of pipe, a rotary saw, a bow with no arrows left, the key to Explosives Storage, and some dynamite.

The ashes in the river.

It looks like the keg is further down the delta, as if it arrived first.

So, apparently dynamite doesn't leave ashes... u-um, I think my grandpa told me that once, too.

Well...

Burn down a shovel handle and tinfoil, plus burn down a bedroll. If we sift out the shovel handle and the tinfoil amounts from the stuff in the water, is the remaining ashes in the water, plus the stuff behind the Purple Building... are those equivalent to one bedroll?



D-Does that even make sense...?

No, honestly, it doesn't make sense.

Anyhow, you do that.

It seems like a bedroll produces less ash than is even in the canal, much less canal + purple building.

The ashes in Carpentry - what do those look like right now? Could the ashes behind Purple and in the water conceivably be from there?

Same with, um... I don't know... does it seem like there's less ash than there should be in there based on the amount of stuff that burned? Personally, I-I wasn't really paying attention to it last night because I was going to bed... s-sorry.

They look like ashes, what do you want from me.

Anyhow Carpentry seems to have a Carpentry's worth of ashes. If you took as many as needed to match the canal, you would notice.

can i fill a pillowcase or someshit up with some bees, aggitate it without letting them free, then leave it in the middle of the tunnel between the saloon and noise entrances? would like to compare this to memory later

You do this, sitcking it at the current endpoint of the tunnel. Yep. Bees.

You have Roland test this with Bowl. It took me a minute to wrap my head around it too.

"...Hiya, Luckies~! I'm your fashionably late navigator Akira Kogami~! Can you believe it, it's really day nine of our production diary together and Akira is still alive, I must just be too cute to die~!!"

...

Akira lights up a cigarette and contemplatively takes a deep breath of it.

"...Yeah, you know, I've been thinking about violence a lot lately. Oh yeah, I know what you're thinking, ha ha very funny. I'm being serious here so shut up while a real idol's talking, okay honey~? Cascabela, Partitio, Neil... Oh will you shut up it's not MY fault I killed him! Anyway, ya really gotta think about the futility of it all through all this, don't you? 'Cause 'the best sword is kept in its sheath' and all that, yeah, Jessica didn't get it all, she's basically just some rich kid nepo baby playing around with her granddaddy's money after all. She hasn't been down in the trenches working her ass off like I have. Huh? Why did I accomplice for her then? None of your business besties~ 'Oh, what is Akira even talking about?' Don't worry about it, you'll figure it out eventually. I'm just thinking, me and Colonel Sanders, we were a lot alike you know?"

"Anyway, the first thing I needed to do was get a disguise so a certain little ninetieth grade BITCH didn't screw up the plan and deny me my chance to duel with one of the legends of sword mastery~! And save Ace Ventura, that part's totally important too. So I borrowed Partitio's bedsheet and sheetghosted all the way to Desert Sage where... There was no one home, that's pretty creepy~!! I grabbed some walkie talkies for Jessica from the Army Post, which'll come in super handy when we try to get out of this god foresaken shithole town too, aaand a cute kitsune mask from the General Store to go with my kimono and then I ran all the way back with Nico totally none the wiser!"

"Once I got back, I kept ignoring Nico and her stuuupid flyers for her new political ideology or something, I think she said she held a campaign event in the Chapel? But no one came, so sad~! I woke up Mayor Ventura and brought him across the street to Century Agave and then..."

"Look, real combat isn't like it is in the movies, okay, it was basically over in an instant after it started. I hand a walkie talkie off to Jessica, we go in the Ruined Mine together, Jessica lowers Ace down into the hole, Roland throws all his thermite and stuff in. Zalsarona comes by with nails for Roland, then it's time. North Star and the Colonel burst in, Roland throws the nails, Ace blasts him, Roland lights him up--"

"--Then, I look my adversary in the eye, the shared respect between skilled warriors no matter the cause or side they fight for! We square off with our blades! And theeeen, bam~! Like I said, it was over in instant, he tips his hat to me, and he explodes everywhere into a fountain of blood and guts as I solemnly return my sword to its sheath~!!"

"Honestly? After that my night totally wasn't very interesting. Me and Roland head out through Explosives Storage, I have to put up with Nico and her dumb flyers some more... No Roland was not standing in there jerking off, where did that fucking rumor even get started?! Ugh, yeah, he's kinda a gross guy I bet but he's not that bad. Nah, we just head to the Train Station after that and look around the train for a bit, Hifumi gets off and goes in the Railworkers' Quarter, Evangeline gets off too and passes by Nico, who I just can't keep seeing apparently, then Roland leaves while I stick around for a bit waiting for Jessica to call me back. Aaand when she does she says the plan is off so she basically was just wasting my time. Oh, and I found a key with some weird note that said 'this once was a witch's treasure', so I guess something about how Marisa kept stealing all our stuff, who the hell knows."

"Rest of the night, like I said, I just spent some time unwinding after work. Saw McJango over at the Corral while I was heading to the Saloon, saw the guy with the skull face leaving, Kroos came down to hang out at the bar, Jessica passes through from the Harrier or whatever and leaves. I go upstairs to get my real favorite cat some cat treats and when I come down to kick back blam~! Kroos creampies North Star right there, gets him right in the face. Yeah, it was actually kind of funny. Then he went upstairs and got shot at by the Gambling Parlor trap, oh that's rough buddy. Bit after that I left and THIS time I actually got the cat treats to McJango in Carpentry on my way to bed."
