[ one hundred percent takes a bow i hate this ]

[shiftingwinds]

[she's just sincerely very happy for her that how extraordinary she is was recognized by the train



that's such a fucking weird sentence to write.]

[alteracion]

[ horrible, but grace beams ]

It's a lot similar to this place in a way, I guess.

[shiftingwinds]

Really? How so?

[alteracion]

An otherworldly place where special people get chosen to go that's kind of dangerous? Of course, people don't kill each other on the train, so.

[ so. ]

[shiftingwinds]

[she makes a face]

Would that this place becomes more like your train in the future, then.

[enough with the murder!]

[alteracion]

No kidding. This weekend was... A lot.

[shiftingwinds]

That's... putting it mildly.

...but what can we do? We'll deal with it one day at a time.

[she'd like to believe they can avoid another murder, but as gentle as she is, she's too old to believe there won't be any more bloodshed now that someone's gotten away with murder.]

[alteracion]

... Yeah. [ grace also believes there's going to be another murderer, so. yeah. ] There's nothing much else we can do right now.

[shiftingwinds]

...I do hate waiting.

[alteracion]

I've never been any good at it, either. Especially waiting for the next horrible thing to happen.

[shiftingwinds]

I suppose the only good thing about it is the longer we wait, the more time we have to prepare.

[alteracion]

Prepare for what, round two of that farce from this weekend?

[shiftingwinds]

Well, the ideal option would be to prepare enough that there isn't a round two. If we can catch someone in the act and prevent them from doing it...

[but that's not likely.]

But failing that - I'd like to not repeat the same mistakes we made.

[alteracion]

We don't even know what those mistakes were, though. Besides believing in what we thought was evidence, anyway.

[shiftingwinds]

There must have been something we missed while we were looking at it all. After all, in the end, there's no such thing as a perfect crime, is there?

[she frowns slightly]

And there was that skull, too. It didn't make much sense at all, but it must have been relevant somehow, right?

[alteracion]

Probably, but the only person with a bone motif here is Harrow.

[ like, she's not saying harrow absolutely didn't do it, but also, well ]

[shiftingwinds]

That alone doesn't make sense either. There must have been something that connected it all, but we didn't notice it or make the right connections...

[alteracion]

I guess. But they vanished all the evidence away, so it's not like we can look it over to figure it out.

[shiftingwinds]

That's the most frustrating part. We're to be told we got it wrong, but given no chance to figure out where we went wrong?

[alteracion]

And they know the actual answer, but we've got to figure it out for ourselves because they can't tell us.

[shiftingwinds]

It's a shame they can't just tell us... I'm sure it bothers them, too. [...] Or, at least, some of them.

[alteracion]

You think so?

[ presses x. to doubt. ]

[shiftingwinds]

They're people too, even if they're Avatars. I find it hard to imagine it wouldn't bother them at least a little.

[alteracion]

They seemed pretty okay with it to me.
