week 5 sunday

[catraclysm]

[ making her way downtown, in the inn, walking normally and taka's here now

DA NA NA NA NA NA ok I'm done ]

Oh. Hey.

[ why does she look surprised to see him ]

[bakaomi]

Hey. You.

[catraclysm]

I have a name.

[ it's? a very simple one?? damn taka. ]

What are you doing here?

[ it is an inn, catra. people go places. ]

[bakaomi]

...

Do you think I sleep outside?

[catraclysm]

[ yes. ]

It's the middle of the day.

[bakaomi]

But why wouldn't I go to where I'm staying. It's an inn.

[catraclysm]

[ :/// ]

Okay, I get it, it was a dumb question, can we please move on.

[bakaomi]

Moving on.

How did you think we did?

[catraclysm]

[ she stares at him for a second ]

Great, clearly. Nothing beats getting someone by complete and total luck after a guy breaks down in the last ten minutes. So fun.

[ it's been a long day ]

[bakaomi]

Well, yeah. Besides the obvious.

[catraclysm]

I dunno. It started off... okay? You guys were trying to be organized, I guess.

[ she's not gonna include herself in that because she knows, jack shit, at all times, but ]

But it became a mess pretty quick again the second Yu got hit.

[bakaomi]

And the eyeglass kind of fucked things up, too.

[catraclysm]

Yeah. I don't know why Indulgence told Senri to use it. [ ... she huffs ] Guy found it, right? But he didn't kill the kid.

[ she didn't trade babysitting duties with ludger to not get the story out of luke :T but ]

[bakaomi]

But maybe he ran into whoever did?

[ hmm ]

We already know killers have run into each other before during curfew.

[catraclysm]

So... what, you think they were working together? Like Luna and Newt?

[bakaomi]

I don't know. It might be less working together and just more... wanting to watch your own ass by not pissing off someone who could out you.

[catraclysm]

I guess... Luke seemed pretty convinced that he was just messed up by someone else's power, but...

[ but luke has a widdle bias ]

[bakaomi]

Hm... well, Zoe was a Love follower, and it kind of seems like Guy was hit by Hopelessly Devoted? So it would make sense that she used her power on him to make it easier for us to figure out he was her killer.

[ except he did a really fucking good job of hiding it ]

... but if that's the case, it'll mean he still chose to kill her and Jude on his own.

[catraclysm]

... Yeah. I don't get it. He only switched to Cunning recently, right? And I don't think Cunning would've asked the newbie to prove himself by killing two people.

[ like. she won't put him above "by killing", but, two is? a lot? ]

[bakaomi]

I don't think so. Cunning is the kind of person who wouldn't say no to people killing for him, I think, but he also wouldn't really try to make people do it. It makes him look too bad.

[catraclysm]

Right, he's still trying to win over people with his own merit. [ and not... ambition crying about it ] So... why those two in particular?

[ jude and zoe have... nothing in common ]

[bakaomi]

Maybe he... thought they would be easy...?

[ squints ]

[catraclysm]

Zoe, maybe, but Jude was a fighter, wasn't he? There's a bunch of easier targets still here if he wanted that.

[ she is nice enough to not mention, anyone, directly, ]

[bakaomi]

Yeah... he makes less sense.

Although he's also one of the few people who has real medical knowledge that goes beyond knowing how bandages work.

[catraclysm]

So... usefulness? I guess now that Jude's gone, the few people left with that knowledge are...

[ ... ]

Entrapta and a robot.

[ BAD ]
