[ good i hope it's awkward as heck. until ash opens his big ol' mouth. ]

D'ya wanna keep avoiding the topic of what happened today, or are we gonna swing around to it and talk about it?

[applechemist]

[ ... called out... ]

... We can talk about it. I just don't know what there is to say.

[voidbreaker]

Probably better not to dance around the fact we’re definitely stuck in a kill or be killed situation again.

[applechemist]

Do you plan to kill anyone?

[voidbreaker]

No, I don't.

You?

[applechemist]

[ She shakes her head. ]

No.

But everyone is going to say that. That's why... I don't know what there is to say about it.

[voidbreaker]

The trick now is figuring out who means it, and who'll buckle.

Or maybe figuring out how they're gonna go about twisting our arms.

Even the people we know from our last games - that's still just a small handful of people. And in my game, killers were possessed, so...

... It's so hard to predict anything when even our frame of reference is different.

[ he shrugs. ]

So, trust everyone but trust no one. Bit of a mixed message, isn't it?

[applechemist]

Basically.

And trusting someone or not trusting them - either one of those could blow up in our face.

[voidbreaker]

You could say that in any context.

It just comes down to if you feel it's better to trust people or not, I guess.

[applechemist]

I think it's better to. If we aren't dealing with possession, then there's no reason not to.
