[ She's fiddling with a record player, now. Where did that come from?

Mikazuki's sword and Kurisu's weird invention are now sitting on the table. ]

Who is connected to greed. ...Which is what Sisuca's designation was. [Lithuania isn't sure if that's related, but it's something to note.]

[vicedirector]

[ More nodding.

Interestingly, while she speaks, she's mostly stationary. Leviathan hasn't moved once from the chalk circle. ]

She a b s o r b e d Sisuca upon her death...as her sin implies.

[jackhole]

[ the most aggravated noise ]

Oh my god, why are we on this shitty team? The fucking Pride assholes still live and yet we get this shit.

[vicedirector]

Your own greed has d a m n e d y o u.

[ Leviathan suddenly seems a lot scarier. Do not provoke Envymom, Rhys. ]

...if you wish to view it like that.

[jackhole]

[ oh my god, why did you have to red text? he jerks back, kind of fearful before finding himself again and. you know what? no. ]

I'm a greedy guy! So what! Why the hell should my life choices dictate whether I live or die in the most fucked up game of clue in the universe? None of you know what my life is like and being murdered by some freak show in an alternate universe just because I was living life for me -- that's not fair, at all! Take care of your own shit, asshole!

[vicedirector]

[ His robot arm starts wigging out now, congrats. ]

Cease your babbling, you sniveling child. I have no interest in your morals.

[jackhole]

[ WHYYY. he sort of jerks his robot arm to his chest and holds it there. stop messing with his arm, god damnit! ]

Then let us go! Let us go home, all of us, if you don't care about us. Why should you even care? It isn't fair and all of this is so fucked and if there's more of you, then I just -- what gives you the right to jerk our lives around like this?! What gives ANY of you the right?!

[ this is not a good day for rhys and the whole "there are sinparents for everyone" bombshell is not dropping well. he was sort of okay with the witch on bitch battle (except not really) but this is too much. ]

[herbgrace]

Rhys. [Sinbro, chill.] This isn't the time to be shouting at her.

[jackhole]

[ ARE WE FAMILY NOW ]

It's just -- we're just going to be asked to do more dumb shit and the only benefit of the whole thing is that we don't die. And I am so, so tired.

[ he sort of deflates then and just kicks at the ground, looking pretty worn out. ]

[herbgrace]

Our position isn't fair. [Lithuania agrees with that.] But we do want to live, and so we have to play within the rules. It's frustrating, I know, but our options are limited. We're simply lucky enough to know exactly how limited we are, compared to the others.

[Lithuania is probably being sarcastic by saying they're lucky.]

[jackhole]

It's -- It's stupid.

[ but that seems like all he's got and he's just going to leave it at that. he'll just stick to listening then because he really isn't in the mood to, well, not yell at the sinmom. ]

[herbgrace]

[...] Are Rhys and I in danger from her?

[vicedirector]

Not at present. But the risk is still there.

[herbgrace]

There aren't many of us. Two of us are here. [You have the advantage of them in this negotiation, and Lithuania's face says she's 100% aware of that.] You say you can reign her in. What do you need from us?

[vicedirector]

To a degree.

[ ... ]

I have no interest in taking...Kazunari Takao and Zelos Wilder. Nor any of their c o m p a t r i o t s.

[ She turns to Miata ]

You. I grow tired of your...e m p l o y e r. She is...sycophantic in the most tiring of ways.

2/2

[vicedirector]

[ Miata takes a deep breath, stepping forward. ]

What, then? You wanna backstab her?

[herbgrace]

That sounds a little dangerous. [Lithuania isn't saying no or anything, she's just pointing that out.]

[dereban]

[ To Lithuania: ]

What we're doing sounds pretty dangerous too. [ They're like Secret Agents. But she can't help but shrug her shoulders, relieved as she looks at Leviathan. ]

Good to know that you don't plan on doing that to anybody in your group, though. There's someone I actually like in that group.

[ AS A FRIEND, OF COURSE!!!! If he... ever forgives her for fucking up. ]

[muties]

Oh, remind me to harass you about whether you and Hajime are a thing, later.

[ WAS JUST REMINDED OF THAT ]

[dereban]

[ Hissing: ]

We're definitely not.

1/2

[vicedirector]

Of course it is d a n g e r o u s. There are six of the others.

What did you think you could do, M i a t a J a n s o n e ? Take us on? All by yourself? Or did you want to stop the ritual before it began? Whose side are you on?

[ Leviathan hooks her thumb underneath her blindfold and lifts it away.

Underneath are three pairs of red, unblinking eyes. ]

2/2

[vicedirector]

[ Miata gulps, but maintains her stance. ]

Stopping it was what I was kinda going for, yeah. Before she had the chance to narrow it down to 7 people.

Are you saying you can? You can't even get out of that circle, right now.

[herbgrace]

[Lithuania moves closer to Miata again, and the fur on the back of Laima's neck rises. Even as she was telling Rhys to calm down, if it involves Miata, Lithuania can't help herself. She doesn't attack, of course, but she doesn't like how Leviathan is speaking to Miata at all.]

What are your terms, Leviathan?
