[HE. Gets a pained look for a second, and then he looks away.]

There's probably at least two people involved. Because, you know, the pawprint.

[coastal]

... her power is neither the pawprint, nor the injury transfer.

If those powers do exist, and they are the ones involved - then they're the ones outside of my information circle.

[ . . . . and so.]

Makes you wonder what good knowing does, in a place like this.

[when it means she can't stop anything, when it matters.]

[shortforever]

Knowing only matters if you plan on killing someone on the down-low. If you're going to do things with the group, it's about who you know and how good you are at talking to people. But that puts people like you and me at a disadvantage.

[coastal]

[ . . . . she just scowls at that.]

What's the point of any of this then - why did I even expect there to be one....!!

[she knows just as much as anyone else that these rules are bullshit - but god, she just wanted to avoid a tie, and barring that, she wanted to avoid it being anyone innocent.

and then look at what happened.]

[shortforever]

The point is to make us suffer.

[Because yeah, they know that now.]

If we suffer enough, something happens to the pink thing, and then the game ends. Or whatever. I'm still not sold on the fact that we should be aiding it.

[coastal]

.... suffer, is it.

[well, she feels like she can satisfy that void all on her own at this point.]

No matter how it arrives, I'll destroy it. I'll burn this entire place down if I have to.

[shortforever]

[He nods.]

I'll help you destroy it too.

[coastal]

[ . . . . she's quiet for a bit, and she admits - ]

I probably feel gratitude for that, somewhere between all the fury.

[shortforever]

That's fine, you can express that gratitude later. Let's work on the fury first, yeah?

[coastal]

[there sure is a lot of that to work through.]

... there's plenty of that to spare.

[amongst. everything else that she's feeling - but anger is reliable. she wears it familiarly.]

Some people here are such - fools.

[shortforever]

You won't see me arguing with you there. How spiteful does someone have to be to pass up voting for someone actively volunteering in order to justify their anger?

[coastal]

.... if you discover one of them who did, will you tell me who they are?

[she frowns.]

I'm not so pathetic that I'd jeopardize everyone here with something like a murder out of revenge.

But I also do not think they ought to be easily forgiven.

[shortforever]

I don't know who they are yet, but if I find out, then you're not the only one who won't be forgiving them. I'll let you know exactly whose name should come out of your mouth like you're spitting venom.

[coastal]

[she nods. at least in that case, they're in complete agreement.]

.... I won't jeopardize what we're all working for.

But I can hate them at the same time.
