. . .

I'm okay.

[ It's not like he arrived in the gy and got his ass obliterated immediately like Estinien. ]

[adorabrawler]

[ ww should've gotten his ass slapped ]

... As much as one can be, considering, I'm guessing.

[crucifer]

[ Really cannot emphasise enough that everyone could have legit gotten Wolfwood in a maid dress on Monday if he just got paid for it. ]

Sure. I mean, the amenities aren't bad. It ain't like I gotta sleep on the streets. Holed up in a hotel room for free and I don't gotta pay with weird digital currency anymore.

[ So, that's nice? ]

And it ain't like I haven't walked the line of death before, so it barely feels like it.

[ It basically felt like the equivalent of one of his escapades where he wakes up in a hospital except he woke up in Shibuya... it's kind of hard to get disoriented when you're used to almost dying all of the time. ]

[adorabrawler]

Wow, okay. So I was worried for nothing.

[crucifer]

Yep, so you can keep all that worry for yourself.

[ Especially given like. Fei Du told him you fucked up Wenzhou so lmao. He doesn't ask because he's not going to just dredge that up out of a 12-year old but it is why he thinks she should worry more about herself. ]

[adorabrawler]

Meh, I'm tossing it in the garbage. If you're all okay, and we're doing fine here, then there's no point.

[crucifer]

Use it on yourself, girlie. Don't let it go to waste.

[adorabrawler]

What do I have to worry about?

[crucifer]

The fact that we're not out of the UG, for one.

[adorabrawler]

Well, yeah. We have another week ahead of us, and then... I dunno. We fix all this?

[crucifer]

I'd say that's the goal, yeah.

Nobody been harrassin' you, right?

[adorabrawler]

... Nah, not really. I guess I'm doing fine if I've only had one conversation blow up in my face.

[crucifer]

Wanna talk about it?

[ This is not mean, it really is like. Do you wanna complain about it while I'm here? ]

[adorabrawler]

[ She pauses briefly, considering this; then: ]

Eiden just—he really ticked me off! If he wants to be angry with me, then fine, but to call me a liar, too...

[ She huffs. ]

[crucifer]

Might be easier if we sit somewhere.

What's he accusin' you of lying about?

[adorabrawler]

Alright...

[ idk, maybe she's in japanifornia or shibuya or something, time to head for a bench somewhere ]

... But, right, I guess you weren't around to see anything. Even after we started fighting Wenzhou never went back for his gun, so some of them got this stupid idea that I pinned him down or tied him up or whatever. He wouldn't believe me at all when I said I don't know why he never used it!

[crucifer]

Right. Doesn't seem like that's the part of the whole thing that's worth lyin' about on top of everything else.

[ HE DOESN'T KNOW THAT WENZHOU WAS LITERALLY SALSA BUT. He did get told that Mizuki killed Wenzhou so he's up to date with that much. ]

...Why'd you go after him to begin with? He didn't attack you first, did he?

[adorabrawler]

[ She plops down to sit, shaking her head. ]

No, he didn't. It was our decision to erase someone.

[crucifer]

So... by "our", you mean you and the other girl.

[ If Monika talked Mizuki into committing a murder, she's going on a blacklist. ]

Can I ask why all of a sudden?

[ Even if it was as simple as 'so that we won't have ended the game doing nothing at all'. ]

[adorabrawler]

We intended on doing it sooner, but then Valerie… [ you know. ] But we wanted to get the points we could in case something happened to the other teams.

[crucifer]

[ Sighs. ]

Did any of you kill before this week? I get the feeling, seriously. But the last week is seriously cuttin' it too close.

[ And now Fei Du is a full Triple-M anti. Wolfwood really just woke up to this. ]

[adorabrawler]

[ Well Fei Du can Fei Deal with it… ]

Weren’t you trying to do the same thing?

[crucifer]

No, 'cause first off, I started almost three weeks ago.

Second off, I was plannin' on a second one two weeks ago, but didn't even wake up. I'd given it up by last week after talkin' to red and swim trunks, but guess I'm unlucky like that.

[adorabrawler]

Hm…

Okay, fine, maybe it was pretty late in the game, but it was better than doing nothing.

[crucifer]

[ He gets the sentiment though he disagrees, so he sighs. ]

Just hopin' that glasses doesn't decide to be too harsh on you.
