Lulu pulled the paper over so he could see it. "Around 5 or so dates. It says 'Branch 85'," She told him, pointing to some complicated-looking coding.

"Okay, any coordinates for that?" He asked, tilting his head.

"It's…" She squinted. "It's the one at the music studio."

"…Yikes." He said, blinking.

"Yeah." She nodded. "I…I think I have something figured out, though."

"What?" He asked, looking up.

"The list of IDs…that's all of Kathleen's reincarnates. There've been five. And the branch for her is centered…at the music studio." She turned to him with wide eyes. "We each have a different branch and a list of reincarnates somewhere."

"What. The. Fuck." He muttered. "This keeps getting weirder."

She groaned and hung her head again. “I hate this thing.”

Eric nodded. "Wanna take a break? I might have some food somewhere if you're hungry."

“Yes please.” She agreed with a nod. “I need it.”

Eric stood up, walking across the room. "I think I might have some rolls…"

“Yay.” Lulu said matter-of-factly, letting her legs dangle off the side of the bed.

"Ha!" He said, holding up two rolls as he walked back. "Again, ain't much…"

“It’s fine.” She shrugged with a smile, taking one and biting into it. “With our state of affairs, I don’t mind.”

Eric smiled, talking a bite of his own.

“Okay.” She said through a mouthful. “You want to help Kathleen before either of us, right?”

He nodded silently.

“Reminder that we don’t even know when our dates are. It could be tomorrow. Or…later today.”

"I know." He muttered, shaking his head.

“So…you wanna do Kathleen. Okay. So I was thinking.” She cleared her throat. “If they took stuff from her…we have to put it back…and cut them off.”

"…What?" He asked, blinking.

“Like I said. They took stuff from her. DNA souls, or whatever you said. They might be destroying whatever part of it they have soon. So, we need to get it, return it to her, and cut them off from her.” She let out a breath, looking up at him from under her eyelashes. “In four days.”

"Okay." He said, nodding.

“So,” She said, finishing her roll and going back to the briefcase, “We have to figure out what everything is before anything else.”
