What, it is? What an advanced metal doll. The fact that it could lie like any human...hm! And what did it say the night before?

[HK YOUR LYING???????]

...Mmm. If it happens again, though, it might give us clues as to what happened during Kaz's death. And it might be the same murderer. But I'm not eager for that.

[shiftingwinds]

When I asked about the first week, he said he hadn't been given any instructions to kill people. But he sure made it sound like he did at the execution, right?

[when she was too wounded to contradict him, even!]

...I'd like to figure out what happened to him, but I definitely don't want someone else to have to die for us to do it. I just wish there was some better way.

[commedia]

It did, yes. I certainly believed it.

[Probably others did, too.]

Have you asked the Avatars anything? All they tell me is that to look at the clues we have...

[shiftingwinds]

I might have believed him if he hadn't told me something different the night before. I... I think he's just trying to rile people up. Everything else so far, our indulgences and all, it's been about things we choose to do, right...?

[she sighs.]

That's what they keep telling me, too.

[commedia]

...

[Douman heaves a sigh, letting themselves slump back against the bench.]

In this mess of lies and indulgences, its any wonder we'll succeed.

[shiftingwinds]

I'm getting really tired of failing.

I don't want to fail again.

[commedia]

...

[A strange look crosses across Douman's face. Almost...bittersweet?]

I feel the same way.

[shiftingwinds]

[aND THEN THEY FAILED AGAIN.]

...then... this time for sure. We'll get it right.

[lol no they won't]
