Mnemonic


[ch-] Charlie Brown is [2] inside the [-ang] chapel working alongside 亻 Slenderman and a 貝 shellfish to 償 repay the chapel by repairing the pews. This is because they all accidentally set off a glitter bomb earlier that destroyed those very pews. Actually Charlie Brown was not involved at all, but somehow got associated with the troublesome 亻 Slenderman and his dangerous 貝 shellfish friend. He could not talk the priests out of letting him off without 償 repayment.
