Are you familiar with rebuses? They're a type of puzzle https://what.thedailywtf.com/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji-one/static/images/1f600.png" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-parsed" data-set-id="emoji-one" data-emoji-id="grinning" alt=":)" title=":)" /> The meaning is non-obvious but, having seen the solution, I quite liked it. I figured I'd see if either of you can solve it before I divulge https://what.thedailywtf.com/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji-one/static/images/1f603.png" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-parsed" data-set-id="emoji-one" data-emoji-id="smiley" alt=":D" title=":D" />



CalamityJade

Ugh...what kind of puzzle does that



yamikuronue

A rebus https://what.thedailywtf.com/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji-one/static/images/1f606.png" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-parsed" data-set-id="emoji-one" data-emoji-id="laughing" alt="XD" title="XD" />


Some examples that are easier:





CalamityJade

"I Under Stand you over take to over see my under takings" if I understand correctly



yamikuronue

you undertake*, but yes, the answer is  "I understand you undertake to oversee my undertakings"



accalia

pass. Julia's waiting for a response to her siggestion from lance/obsidian.



yamikuronue

poor Siegfried...


Seems like a FF point?



accalia

probably. i'm no beancounter and there's only so much i can talk about



yamikuronue

seems like a great time for any of the characters to sneak up on poor Siggy



accalia

what you want echo to do that?


he's absent for a reason.


i suspect that will become clear when Julie and Echo have a schene where they're both in the same room



yamikuronue

Please hold, my husband is yelling at Discourse https://what.thedailywtf.com/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji-one/static/images/1f606.png" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-parsed" data-set-id="emoji-one" data-emoji-id="laughing" alt="XD" title="XD" />


There should be a badge for that....



accalia

there is. it's called "Welcome"



accalia

also hope Julie's advise isn't too far off the mark for what you were looking for.



accalia

more advise, she doesn't back down easily.


I'm interested to see how she ends up dealing with Lance.


and how long it takes anyone to guess her secret and the secrets of her partners.

yamikuronue
