post-trial garbage feelings

[ballisdeath]

[ The campfire is still roaring. S'mores supplies are hanging around the area. There's still a faint scent of copper on the air, for those who can really recognize it.

Leon is leaning against Mami on one of the logs around the fire. He's been acting like he's uncaring-- and a lot of it stems from bitterness that this happened to him and he had to watch it AGAIN. But he's calmed down now. He actually looks rather peaceful, if a bit weathered.

There's also now a pizza sitting on another nearby seat. It's cheese and a little cold. ]

Spell didn't work. Delivery man practically blinked out of existence. I thought I'd try since... look at all of us now.

[ That's all he murmurs. Join the campfire? ]

I don't think she's interested in killing us herself. The food should be fine unless someone else decides to lace it with hemlock.

[warmyyarny]

You say that now, but just wait until she has to "facilitate" somethin' else.

[If she gives someone a reason to kill and someone dies, that counts, right?]

[killtheanimals]

Then it will probably be indirect instead of poisoning us all personally.

[Nom.]

[warmyyarny]

Yeah...maybe you're right. [...] You think...it could happen again?

[killtheanimals]

I don't see any reason why it would stop after this one.

[His voice is cold and blunt. It's simply the truth of it, in his eyes.]

[warmyyarny]

We all just saw killin' someone means you die too. That should make some people stop, nobody wants to die.

[killtheanimals]

Unless they come up with a reason that would make people risk it anyway, just like this time.

[warmyyarny]

Like what reasons?

[Got anything specific in mind already? You seem like quite the pessimistic person, pal]

[killtheanimals]

Who knows?

Everyone's got something they'd risk their lives for.

[Maybe even kill for.]

[warmyyarny]

Like what? What'd get you to risk your life for like that?

[Kanji sounds somewhat confrontational. Most likely because, well, it's a reason to kill, that's an ugly topic]

[killtheanimals]

I was already risking death before I came here.

[His voice is cold.]

Shouldn't you be asking yourself that?

How do you plan to survive this?

[warmyyarny]

The usual way! Fightin' back whatever tries to kill me!

[And he has full confidence he can do such thing]

[killtheanimals]

Then do that.

[Go forth and survive, Kanji.]
