[ch. 2] post-trial, w/ varian

[asswipe]

[Hey, Varian. Sometime after the trial, Veronica's going to be pulling him somewhere secluded.]

I hate that we had to watch someone make out with a corpse to get the names of two of the special roles.

Heroes and villains is still the running theme. [ he frowns in thought ] If we have people designated to kill, then wouldn't it make sense to have a group designated to catching them?

[ fuckin bloody shoes are another thing entirely ]

[asswipe]

Like a group of detectives. That makes sense...

[She hums, thinking back to the trial.]

... But not so much if they're meant to catch the Blotters. Those change every week. [but...] Remember what Dragon said when she brought the Historians up? There are some people who think what they're doing is good, and others who think what they're doing is bad.

[alchemenace]

[ what the fuck is a detective that isn't akechi ]

... Whoever they are, they might be trying to stop this entire war. Is that what you're getting at?

[asswipe]

[... why are the two detectives here a murderer and a furry. okay, moving on.]

Yeah, something like that. And we know there are multiple "win" conditions.

[alchemenace]

What if all those "special roles" have their own ending, then? Their, their own "win conditions"?

[asswipe]

[...]

Then we have to find what those conditions are, and what kind of ending they guarantee. Some are bound to screw us over more than the others.

[alchemenace]

But how do we figure it out? Outside of what we received, it sounds like the Blotters are the only ones who are getting access to information right now. [ a beat ] If they live.

[asswipe]

[a beat.]

Maybe we should beat up Akechi and Fitzgerald.

[SHE'S JOKING and yet]

[alchemenace]

[ ... ]

I hold them, you punch?

[ varian is five feet tall this is clearly a real option ]

[asswipe]

Good thinking. They'll never know what hit them.

[clearly this is a real option and the real reason they won't know is because

they're both short as fuck rip]

[alchemenace]

[ god they're so short ]

... Though we should try for Akechi. He's shorter.

[ FITZ IS SO TALL ]

[asswipe]

... I'd say hell yeah, but somehow I don't think Eichi would be happy about that?

[WHY IS FITZ SO TALL.]

[alchemenace]

... Unlike Ion, who might be okay with it after this weekend.

[ damn it ]

[asswipe]

Unless he's taken matters into his own hands, already. We've been foiled again.

[no punching for them. sad.]

[alchemenace]

I would pay good money to see that.

[asswipe]

So would everyone else, I bet you.

[alchemenace]

It would be really satisfying.

[asswipe]

Cathartic after having to deal with him tonight.

[alchemenace]

Not that I'm complaining that the murderers keep confessing, but... Have they considered doing it faster?

[asswipe]

If only. What the hell is up with all the last minute confessions?

[alchemenace]

A very sudden onset of guilt?

[ doubtful ]

[asswipe]

Their onset would be more helpful if it didn't keep happening right before we have to vote.

[alchemenace]

At least it happens at all, I guess.

[ week 3 laughs ]
