[well, he can't talk because one hand is occupied with the note, so he simply shifts his tablet to under his arm so that he can hand her his note and take hers.]
[Tradesies, it is. She takes his note in her hand, taking a look at its contents.
As for North's note, once Shess flips the piece of paper open, he'll notice that there... isn't really much written in it. As a matter of fact, it's only two letters in indiscernible writing.

Remember that whole thing about not jumping the gun?]
Sort of. The one who decides the contents and the one who decides its recipient may not be the same.
For now, I'd advise to take them with a grain of salt, if you come across any others. From what I was told, Four was confirmed not to have met with any of the victims last week.
But you do know them, on some capacity. [Interesting.] Are they one and the same with the person who confirmed Four's innocence? Or are you just as unsure about that?
[...]
Anyway, they should be thankful the note didn't end up in someone else's hands. There are plenty of idiots here who would have gone after her if they thought the note referred to last week's trial.
... I'd like to speak with them if they're willing. But I understand if they want to keep their circle small because of the corruption.
[Since, uh. Having the opportunity to confirm someone's innocence is too convenient, and exactly the kind of thing a murderer would want to eliminate.]

he just smiles and pulls a piece of paper out of his pocket as well.]

And then she huffs out a laugh.]
Well, that's a nice coincidence. [She holds out one hand, expectantly, while holding her own note out to him.] I hope you won't be opposed to a trade.

Did a teenager write this?
[whomst the fuck shitposted.]

If only.
You were wise not to jump the gun regarding your own note. I believe Four was actually cleared of suspicion, but I'll have to double-check.
no subject
I found the note on Wednesday, if that means anything. Just— Do me a favor and keep me updated if she's not in the clear.
[Pauses.]
You know who's responsible for these?

I'm glad for that as well, and that you chose to consult with me first.
