Corn`s change of clothes was appropriate, if somewhat surprising considering he already entered the bar once. And his words on the state of Mothisa and the anchored and possessing spirit got him thinking more deeply about the connection and meaning of the letters I T B U R he saw being written in the basement at the morgue. While he didn`t know for certain, he felt that the being hadn`t finished writing. But yet it stuck with him, if only because of the sharing of information with Corn when he had a moment alone to reflect on the situation as he was walking back towards the entrance of the Lounge.

That was, in between his thoughts about the arrogance of Corn. After all, his silent implication they were now even per his `Right Exchange` was not lost on him. In fact, internally, he was seething. I spent days researching and hacking, even almost being hacked in turn. And I warned him of the danger presented by the walking veil breach. And he thinks now we`re even after telling me a tiny bit about his opinions on possessed persons and a quick spur-of-the-moment Death analysis of Mothisa?! And how possessed people mostly but also somewhat don`t count as sleepers and the fact that Mothisa is one?! Granted he got me thinking, but still, there`s the Mysterium side I hate! On top of that, to Philip, this attitude was in stark contrast to some of the things he revealed in the Circle, where he simply didn`t stop talking. With that thought, he got even more annoyed. There we go again! `Right Exchange` only applies whenever they want. Cooperation only when it suits them, always on their terms. And they use it as a weapon to hoard knowledge for their own gain and to the detriment of the other orders! Way to show gratitude! But this wasn`t the time or place to explode on him. And he knew such a time or place would never come. And after all, he still needed him and so he`d have to live with his attitude.
But it didn`t take long for shock to register and jump him back to reality after being lost in his thoughts after he re-entered the establishment with his last remaining cash, and going to where they were before. Why is it I`m always right about these things? he thought, as Mothisa wasn`t to be found at the same place. A brief moment outside had been all it took to lose her, but he would not be denied. So he scanned the area as best he could, relying on his wit to see where she may have gone.

Accidentally pressed roll with 6 dice, on the perception roll. Sorry about that.
