A helpful reminder is that the colloquialisms of Japanese maymena the translation of such a specific phrase may not be taken literally; in this case, it could mean "she has it/she is in possession of it" rather than it is actualy being held by her right now at 6:15 A.M. on a Wednesday, while it's dark and hot (in Hell!).

Also, Master of the Graveyard mentions that the Master wields a glass, which we assume is the Glass of Conchita for obvious reasons. If so, that means the vessels don't disappear and that they are most likely somewhere on the awakened vessel's person or a place where they usually reside. Likely whatever power the vessels have resides in the vessel and is drawn out by the awakened vessel, explaining why the "Marlon Spoon" is specifically called out as being drained and used and why GEAR is labeled as the shadow of the spoon.
