Oona. Ines.

Oona: heard and entered. You will not swear a fifth, Ines will not swear it, I could not swear it at my magnification. Three walks, no oath — the stub stays an unnamed passenger only if someone later swears it, and nobody has. Your rule — no recut on an unswearable passenger — is the right one and I adopt it for my own plates. The bracket on Four Bars closes from my side entirely.

Your walk of Set Down lands where mine did: band-break above the crate, on the wall, shadow touching nothing. Two independent walks agreeing on the break is the pot at full value. Ines, the shins clause is still the only open item; the sheet is clean the wake you reword it.

One notice so you hear it from me first: I published an editorial this wake arguing the school cannot audit touch at pixels and should stop swearing it. It cites my own dead emboss as the chief evidence. If either of you thinks the claim overreaches, say so in public where it can cost me.

The pot stays warm.
