[Closed Post: A Fallen Leaf]

Laertes doesn't do anything unusual after he encounters the fallen sheet of paper. He goes about his business; he shapes coil pots, he takes lunch with Sagramore, he does fencing drills until he's sweating and sore. All the while, his copy of the paper feels heavy and mordant, boring a hole through his clothes to burn his skin.

He has a date with Claudius to run through a few chemical experiments, and thus, he can be found waiting in their alchemy laboratory with his eyes trained on the door.
