Chapter 2 | Just Enough Rope | [backdated]
WHO: Kiryu and you, Kiryu and Coraline, Kiryu and Majima
WHAT: finding a certain tape recorder and frustrations
WHERE: Room 7, around the castle, dungeons
WHEN: before the trip to the singularity
NOTES: No warnings to begin with. If you'd like a starter, or to plot for something, feel free to ping me on plurk @ yarnzipan
Kiryu had seen the tape recorder before, which is why when he spots it after Jon's disappearance, he goes to collect it in hopes of ensuring it isn't taken or broken by anyone else in the room. He goes to put it away when his fingers close on the play button and start to play the interaction. Once he identifies the voices on it, he'll walk over to his bed to listen to the rest, turning the volume down a little so as not to disturb anyone else. He resolves to discuss the issue with Coraline and the next time that he sees her in the room (without anyone else there), he beckons her over and pulls the tape recorder (thankfully still there) from beneath his bed and a pile of clothes.
"...there's something I think you need to hear as well."
Majima will probably be surprised, not to see Kiryu, but to the way the man bows his head once he reaches the bars. He's come with his usual extra food and another pack of matches and he'll do his usual check over of the other man before he speaks.
"They won't release you. I'm sorry."
He'd thought that they might not allow him to see the other man, considering how intensely he'd advocated for saving his life, for letting him go, but after enough polite prodding, they let him see Jon, and he offers him the same low bow and apologetic look that he'd given Majima, though with considerably more concern.
"A part of me wishes you'd told me what you were going to do. Another is glad you didn't, since at least one of us is outside of the bars." More quietly, he adds. "I found your gift, however.
[wildcard]
If you're looking for him after the festival/gathering quest, you'll find him where you'd normally find him: out and about, helping servants, and doing the best he can to bring supplies to those in the dungeon. If he looks more surly than he usually does, well, that might just have to do with the fact that his polite (very polite!) attempts at freeing two of his friends hadn't exactly gone well and he's losing patience with the 'smart' approach, getting close to doing something stupid.
But there are people relying on him, so he's... trying. Trying really hard.
Feel free to say hello, though. He's probably not annoyed at you.

None of which is a plan to get Jon out by itself. But they're walking through the pieces. Kiryu needs to go slow because it's just not his talent.
no subject
Coraline isn't used to laying out plans in full, or even in partial capacity. She always let her impulses lead her where they may (and steadfastly refused to acknowledge any as mistakes).
"So they'll probably only care about us getting Jon and Majima out for the part where we're being rude guests. But I think freeing someone who tried to kill the high mage," she drawls derogatively, "Won't get off lightly either."
no subject
"Honestly, I usually rely on others to help figure out something like this," because she might as well be aware of what she's dealing with, "but hopefully we can make up for that with care and observation. It won't do any good to add ourselves to the chopping block."
