[ he just nods, he's been thinking about this. ]

Yeah. She'd die like, immediately then. But we can't bring her in here, can we? Can't give her the same deal? It... makes me feel a little sick, actually.

It may help us increase our group's chance of survival, however--which would ultimately be good for Selena, even if it meant focusing Mammon on her. [Lithuania would potentially be willing to maybe sacrifice Selena temporarily to a crazy greed demon, that's what she's saying.]

[ !!! wow have a grimace ]

That... is a terrible thing to think, Lithuania. Kind of expected that from me, not you.

[ a pause ]

... Yeah, still couldn't do that to her. I don't want anyone to die because of something I did. We'd be responsible for her death then.

Well, maybe not. Mams probs wouldn't know about the switch, would she? That'd kinda ruin Levi's plans, I'd think.

Dunno. She might sense it. The demon -- Levi. Levi never explained it that far. We'd need to ask.

Add it to the chalkboard. Make a section for "SHIT TO ASK LEVI BEFORE WE GIVE HER OUR SOULS" in case we come up with more shit we don't know.

I'm not a good person. [A good nation, yes, but that precludes being a good person. The way she says it, it's like she believes not being a good person is written into her DNA or something.]

Ignoring if we're already responsible here by virtue of voting for people to die, I believe in this situation we may have to be prepared to get some blood on our hands. ...Though if I can prevent the rest of you from having to do things like that, I will.

[ he'll give her a wary look and there's quite a few things he could say to that but. he won't. he knows all about scales of morality and spitting on them. it's kind of what he does every day. ]

... Yeah. [ he thinks for a moment. ] I guess it is more important if we survive more than anyone else. If we survive, we can get everyone back. Taking the deal with Leviathan would secure the two of us for maybe a bit longer than we have already. It would be... a good thing.

If you don't feel alright doing it, I don't think anyone will judge you for refusing it. [She's not a good person, she's not--so she shouldn't feel bad about trying to lead others toward the most pragmatic solution, and yet she continues to provide other options for them, at least. Let her be the hypocrite. Let her be the villain. She hates that Inaba and Rhys often take the role from her.]

I'm -- I'm not. I'm just... thinking about it, first.

[ it's weird for rhys. he doesn't want to be a bad guy. he wants to be a good guy! he wants to... well, he doesn't want to help people but he wants to live and he'd like it if other people lived too. being directly confronted with the ability to help other people live -- that's the problem. he's never sure what to do with that.

logically, pragmatically, this makes the most sense. he runs his fingers through his hair and sighs, looking up to the ceiling. ]

We have till Sunday, right? We decide Sunday.
