I'm going, I'm going...[he's dragging himself and his sword back to lup's pod, but at least the sword's dropped on the floor with his shoes before he just burrows his face into the bed.]
[he's not seeking them because he's a teenager, but also, he is by nature of being comfy so now they're cuddling.]
The emporium was totally trashed. Everything was knocked off the shelves and on the floor, and we found this bloody t-shirt and somebody's hair. [a pause.] We also found Alyssa asleep on the ground outside.
Yeah. Pretty bruised up and she had some cuts on her in this weird spiral pattern, but she was alive and breathing. We don't really know what happened.
It isn't. Because somebody who was going to commit a crime like this wouldn't ask me to trade teams with them. Or let me sleep here. Or help me figure out how to stop us from losing more than we have to.
You still believe we have other options. That's how I know it wasn't you.
...Tiger told me we get nova when we vote. So...there's that, too. [he hates this.] I almost made the wrong decision last week. I don't want to do that again.
Must be how Wolf's team won? They voted the most correctly and also had the most strong emotions, I guess. [ maybe. she's just flinging spaghetti at the wall. ]

Lay down, you dingus. You're going to give me an ulcer.

Where'd you go?

The bridge, and the kitchen. Found some weird stuff that didn't make any sense, half drowned, nearly bled to death.

That's a pretty confusing summary, Lup. Did people throw sharp stuff in the river again? [there there, she can be dramatic.]

There were weights with a wire wrapped around them. The wire was sharp and it got me. [ she closes her eyes. ] ... Did you find anything?

Weird. Maybe she got caught in the crossfire of something? [ ... ] You found hair, you said?

[ she points out. ] Okay, okay, then if it isn't me, who do you think it is?

Right. [ she's quiet for a moment, then: ] I'm sure you'll make the right decision when it comes down to it.

Two killers. And we can only get one.
no subject
How do we know for sure we can only vote for one? Maybe the rules will change. And...we don't know it was more than one killer anyway. Do we?
