   Summary

   Purple is about to speak, but Red interrupts with a raised finger, seemingly listening for anyone outside the door; Purple lets out a quiet yet unmistakably frustrated groan.

   "Explain," they demand.

   "Floating magic handcuffs are chaining us together," replies Red. "I don't know what you want me to say here."
