private conversation, day four: oz

[cakelover]

[ IT HAS BEEN. A DAY. That is all that can really be said. Kyouya, dead. Legion. Francis. Miko. Nui...

Four in one day. Again. They're not doing so well, as a group. Honey isn't even snacking on any of his candy stash, for once. ]

That...didn't go well.

[Oz is also free of snacks today and looking pretty legitimately upset. He doesn't regret his decision to hold his vote, even if some people are trying to console themselves by pretending it's a cut loss, but he knows that a handful of "no ones" wouldn't turn the tide at all.

The blood of all of those people are on his hands too, and he isn't going to run away from that responsibility.]

No, it didn't. ...Is that what's going to happen every time Missile or the buddy cops don't have a name to give? Start pointing fingers based on scraps of information as small as "he agreed with a VIP"?

[cakelover]

I...think that might be the case, going from this night. No one really spent too much time discussing the murders, but rather...

[ Most of the discussion was on "who do we kill". Honey bites his lip. ]

Conversion...I don't think it would be worse than what happened tonight.

[harepiece]

I agree.

[Obviously, as his vote for no one clearly says.]

But... I'm not sure that anyone else will. People are so afraid of the VIPs now that they're willing to kill a proven innocent if it means that a conversion won't happen. I... can't agree with that. There's no way that I could agree with something like that.

[Oz isn't even sure that the actual VIPs can even be blamed, considering something might have altered their minds.]

[cakelover]

[ LUCY MISUNDERSTOOD ABOUT PARTNER VOTES...HONEY CAN VOTE NO ONE TOO I GUESS NEXT TIME i'm brilliant... ]

I...don't think I do, either. That's twice that someone innocent has been voted dead. Even if it means they're allowed to convert, I...am never voting again unless we have confirmation.

[ Though Peko will, so it's...pointless................ ]

Even then, I...do not think that killing Edea-chan was the right thing to do.

[harepiece]

[AKI ALSO MISUNDERSTOOD PARTNER VOTES so hi5 basically....]

I won't, either. Even if some people think that it's suspicious or cowardly... I said at the start that I wanted to pursue the path of fewest casualties, and I'll want that until the end. [Even though Belgium is also much less gushyhearted than he is so that might not work out whoops...]

...I agree with that, too. We should be trying to find out what changed them so much, or what's made them decide to do this. I don't think that Edea was a bad person, so we should be trying to find out why she was driven to do those terrible things.

[cakelover]

I still think Takashi might have been right about that...what else are these scars for?

[ If not messing with brains which tbh if Tamaki is a VIP Honey will just believe wholeheartedly re: brainwashing surgery or something. ]
