I always put myself in destructive situations [W5, Friday]

[It took time. Everything took time as it always did. It took time for them to all calm down, it took time to heal physical wounds, it took time to properly remove the evidence of obscene crimes...but in the evening they were able to gather in one place away from everyone else. It hadn't been easy coordinating everything, but it was necessary.

And so here they were. All seven of them.]

...I don't really know where to start. [His voice is tight, but determined.] But we need everybody on the same page. Who wants to go first?

Because if he died, like ten other people would die when he wasn't around to patch them up.

I guess. [...] Though I think it might not be a bad idea to change that name to Damian.

So I've heard. [A small pause.] I see where you're all coming from, seriously. I just...

[N A T A L I E.]

Those people can deal with it. I don't think reviving Dr. Lecter should be our priority if we want to end this shit show once and for all.

I know, but I haven't really seen anything that proves reviving Damian will, either. We don't know if he can do it, Jason.

[...]

Are you sure your decision about Dr. Lecter really has anything to do with his capabilities and not more that you're just fond of him?

Yes.

[A pause.]

...No. Maybe? Probably.

[literally why did anyone choose her for this]

[he can't say this is surprising and he supposes he can't really blame her but

he's just sighing]

[She sighs too, shaking her head.]

Look, I made that choice before I knew about Damian. If I knew about him first, I probably would have given Hal his name. I just want to be certain it's the right thing before I change it.

[she's absolutely going to change it because if she didn't i would cry blood though]

Yeah, I get it. If I'd been given that choice, I... would've picked the person I disliked the least here, since I didn't know about anyone's role yet. I get it.

[but oh god let's not revive hannibal]

I don't dislike him the least. I'm not that selfish, it just seemed like the best choice a few weeks ago.

[A shrug.]

Except we know now that murder isn't the only way to end this game. And I have more reasons to trust Damian with our lives than Dr. Lecter.

[he's

biased for some strange reason, huh.]

You might, but I don't know if...

[Ugh!! She scrubs at her face.]

I am thinking about it. I promise. I just want to really think about it, you know?

Don't think about it long enough that it becomes to late to take it back. Keep in mind we don't know if Dr. Lecter has a role, even IF he's saved our asses a couple times already.

[They're running out of obviously sketchy people to point a finger at. He's paranoid. Five people are dead. He's sorry, Natalie.]

...Do you have a reason to think he does?

[Share with the class, Jason.]

[Since this is before Percy shares his note:]

Not particularly. But we're running out of obvious assholes to sacrifice during trials. Maybe not HIM, but someone's going to be a backstabber.

Nothing on his profile mentions him being a doctor. If he didn't want to help any of us, he could have fucked us over from the start and nobody would have known better, right?

[WELL SHE CAN'T BLAME NATALIE FOR HER LOGIC. . .]

As much as I hate to admit it, I agree with Shinnosuke and Jason.

I think we all just need to be more careful from here on out. Damian is our key to ending this game quickly. We need to protect him at all costs.

Edited 2017-02-18 04:26 (UTC)

He could end it, yeah. I know that. I'm waiting to see if it seems like there's any chance of him actually doing that, though. Do you think he's going to be able to kill anyone?

No.

[HA HA. . . HA sorry Damian]

But I've received confirmation from the Sheriff that killing the Deputy is not the only way to end this game. If Damian gets creative, I believe he can find another way.

Either way, we need him.

[I mean. they need Dr. Lecter too, but. . .]

I know Percy knows another way, but from what I've heard, that other way doesn't need one specific person to still be around.

[She sighs.]

I just... It makes sense, it does. I just want to know I'm making the right choice.

[poor Natalie. she's been given a pretty big role in this game, huh. . .]

I know. I believe whatever choice you do make will be the right one.

[She almost asks why, but it's probably not the time for that.]

Thanks, Milla. Seriously.

[because she believes in you Natalie!! you're strong]

Of course.

[annnd something else occurs to her]

When do you usually make decisions about your items? Come to think of it, the Sheriff was carving a wooden deer at the last trial.

On Wednesdays.

[She hadn't thought of that, though. She pauses.]

I picked days after the trial was already over. He must have picked something from the list at random.
