Fvaar half-consciously noticed it as she was getting up, turned around, and then had a feeling she'd missed something. Whirling back to her original orientation, the girl gasped. "Hey, am I seeing things here? Guys! There appears to be a pineapple- a carving of one- under the odd rabbit-fish mural. Wait, is that MB? Anyway, maybe we need to do something to it?" What that was, Fvaar didn't know... Except wait a sec- "Jacob, do you still have that key?!"
Jacob was a bit surprised by her sudden outburst, but he heard 'pineapple', his name, and keys. "O-oh, yeah. I do have them. Did you see a place for the keys to go?" He asked, digging a hand into his jacket pocket, searching for the keys. Once they were found, he extended his hand, crouching down so he was on a similar level as Fvaar to hand her the keys. "Do you need the pineapple as well? I still have that, too....."
Jacob peered over underneath the stall, seeing the bottom of the pineapple shape from his crouched position. "Hmmm... Interesting. A pineapple shape on a mural of fish-MB.... Yeah, its probably another thing for Tilt, I'd say."

Fvaar accepted the keys, standing up the rest of the say to put herself more or less on level with the guy. But... Something felt off. She handed them back.
"They're your keys, not mine, and I'm guessing they're yours for a reason. See that pineapple over there?" She pointed at the art in question. "I think- maybe because the keys and the pineapple were connected- that maybe there's something there that those will open. Want to head over and take a look?" She smiled.

There wasn't much to see, though, other than the large crowd of Asians conversing effervescently and enthusiastically with each other in a multitude of languages. Plus the large rectangular tanks containing fish, eels, geoducks, clams and scallops - the ones that allowed visitors to pick their own lunch right out of the tank and have it cooked and served fresh.
NA's words registered. "Right. So it looks like Fvaar and NA stumbled across something," he called to Min and Brit, waving them and the rest of the group over. He did a quick recap. "But we shouldn't think of the mural as mine. If anything, it's either Trice's as she put it here, or all of ours, even though none of us have ventured here before."
He could have gone on talking about psychology and second sight for quite a long time, but the pineapple was tempting him. "So, there's the stand, the mural, the keys, and the pineapple. Who wants to check out what?"
The fish seller watched them, in the manner of someone who welcomed visitors.
"Um." Fvaar wasn't totally comfortable speaking up, but... This could be important. "I think that the pineapple- probably the pineapple mural- and the key may be connected. As far as I know, they're the only things which ended up with the same person. We might want to investigate those together- with a single team, that is." Nervously gnawing on some hair, the girl touched her feather. She was glad that she'd protected it; after all, if a pineapple could be a clue...

There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man’s fears, and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination.

In the movies, this kind of thing could be done by pouring pineapple juice on the tile, or maybe blood in darker films. It seems to be the latter, anyway, since our resident waterbear doesn't seem to like it by instinct. Anyone got a knife? We could use fish blood. Or, if you guys think we shouldn't go there yet, we can try moving the closest stall out of the way to see if that works, like NA suggests."
Tilt glanced around at the quiet crowd.

"Right. Chaos? We have three hours but we can't do anything until Neste taps into the database. She can do that more easily from here and then take one of the trucks to get back to us. Let's head out."
There wasn't much else to see or do there. Trice lead them back through the Observatory and to Opal. A strange silence met their ears as they walked. It took Trice a few moments to realize the Brothers walking the fields were gone. A sense of dread crept into her spine. "The sooner we get back to the Market District, the better," she said as the car's engine roared to life.
Behind them, unseen because the Observatory and trees blocked the view of the valley to the north, the little village of Northnook vanished completely. It wasn't the only thing fading away. The fertile fields to the south, including Octavian's surreptitious venture, also vanished. They were joined by the bedroom communities near Raptor Lake.

Tilt paused for a moment and nodded to himself. "I didn't think so. OK, so now that we have no pineapple, but we still have keys and a feather and a knife...and we've ruled out sacrificing any blood, fishy or human, to these tiles as too dark a solution...what can we do? Are we supposed to tickle the tiles with the feather? Do something else?" He studied Brit's Buck knife, trying to figure out what other attachments it had. "Any ideas?"

"Oh dang.... did I mess up by putting the pineapple on the floor?" Jacob said, a bit worried that the pineapple was now a tile in the floor. "I sincerely hope not.... Anyway, I have no idea now. I'm not going to touch the pineapple tile for sure though. If anyone wants to try using the keys or something else though, just ask me and I'll hand them over." He sighed and watched the pineapple tiles distrustfully.
"Hmm.... If we put the other clues down somewhere, would it unlock something? I don't think that would be necessarily a good idea to do that though.... we might be missing a piece of the puzzle if we do so though..... but is the only idea I have right now...." He blinked when he heard Giovenith's idea and nodded to her. "That's actually not a bad idea, Gio. If nothing else it probably wouldn't hurt to try."

"PMX, mind rolling down your window and asking that solider if he wants a ride?" She meant Smith, of course, who was gimping down the sidewalk and not getting anywhere fast.
