Max walks out to meet Dave and Jack, handing them cookies he stress baked and talking about wanting to leave the mansion and have control over the body. Dave suggests he just comes back to the mineshaft, and just as Max is agreeing Jack mentions they have 'another one' coming.

The other one Jack was referring to is Prince, who's entranced by how pretty Jack's eyes look and follows them out to the living room, where faer stopped by Jay. Jay asks the eyes if they're kidnapping Prince, and after an uncertain answer, asks them to just be careful and have faem back soon. Prince then leaves the mansion, still following the eyes.

Linked transcript proceeding this: Baroness asks Jack about her coronation. Max is still having a panic attack when the rp resumes.

Pants has followed Baroness outside and is now cuddling with Dave, and Jay has also followed them outside. Dave and Jay talk about Pants and cats in general, while in the background Max starts purring along to Pants' purrs. Jack returns from his talk with Baroness, and him, Max, Dave, and Pants prepare to leave, with Prince still following the eyes and eventually catching up to them.

Max and Pants (the cat) arrive at Baroness's room, saying that Jack wants to speak to Baroness.

The three head outside to Jack and Dave, where Jack asks to hold Pants, and then promptly passes the cat to Dave.

Baroness asks Jack about her coronation, and Max and Jack both tell her to stop talking, as she was not aware it was a traumatic experience.

Unbeknownst to Baroness, Max had watched her coronation during her trial (with Mona), and Jack was at the trial when it occurred. Jack also had a very close relationship with Syd, so both Max and Jack have a negative reaction to the topic being discussed.

Max panics, and Jack gives Pants to him to help him calm down. After that, Jack takes Baroness to the garden so they could discuss the events of the trial and proceeding coronation privately.

Jack then explains that Syd had gotten sick in prison around a week leading up to the trial, but her sickness worsened when Crown came to visit her cell a few days before the trial.

He also mentioned that while Syd had some "ominous" ideals before she was imprisoned, she was vehemently against joining the Family during prison.

He also told her that Syd was taken directly after she was found guilty of her crime (but her sentence had already been served, so she would have been freed otherwise).

Baroness is shocked by this, as she always believed that Crown had saved her from an unfortunate fate that day.

Jack also mentions that he did not care if she left Crown or not, but Baroness promised Jack that she would give Syd's body back if she ever asked.

However, Baroness said that she would not leave Crown though, saying that she believes he loves her, and talking about the effect it would have on him.
