ontrend | [superhell] catchall for rynlan

He's been difficult every time, he'd have been the exact same way in this case. It's probably how we didn't notice him last week.

Yeah... it'd have been weirder if he was cooperative.

It'd come down to forcibly pinning it on him somehow, or just deciding he was likely and picking him without being sure.

[he just sighs, shifting to rest his chin in his palm.]

There's no certainty we'd make it happen.

...yeah, no certainty at all. And like... he might not've had another video game to do what he did again, but if he got his hands on something else...

[he. sighs.]

...what's done is done.

...it is. And you really can't say that killing him led directly to us voting for Filbo, could've happened a number of ways.

[he shrugs, taking a sip of the beer that's been just sitting in front of him.]

Right... like, I definitely feel like it would've been easier for a lot of people to vote for Mephisto if he was alive. I would've.

Buuuut would we have known what the video game did if he hadn't died?

Considering the way he is? Maybe not.

[a little huff.]

...almost forgot. He left me a note, before whatever happened-- well, happened. Mentioned he thought you'd worked hardest for this party and you have his support. I thought it might be worth passing on.

The fuck? Seriously?

Seriously.

[shrugs!]

...I'm not sure how I feel about having his approval, knowing what he did with Tuuri and Kon, actually.

Figured you might not, but-- you know. Seemed like you ought to know either way.

Well... thanks for passing it on.

[...]

You holding up okay? I know you were, uh... more acquainted with him.

...I'm fine. Strange for the room to be so quiet, but-- can't say I was surprised.

[a brief pause, there.]

If I'd been able to prove my suspicions, might've done the same thing myself, acquainted or not.

...yeah. Like - when you know he's done something like that... what else are you supposed to do?

Hold a group discussion, apparently.

[ryn, this is rude. he does exhale a breath after a second.]

--she made some points, I know. But the facts of the matter are still what they are, and that could've still led to trouble.

...can't believe I'm gonna say this, but I think I might actually prefer politics to murder.

Well, when you're dealing with politics there's-- you more or less know what to expect, it's not an entire group of people who've never done it in their lives getting together to try to rule.

[....hm.]

Mostly. But if it is then you have more pressing problems.

...yeah, no kidding.

[he's. imagining a bunch of randos taking charge of a diet meeting and it's very funny actually.]

...could turn out interesting, though, as long as they're not deciding anything too important.

[thinks about it and snickers]

They'd end up fighting each other to decide who's in charge first though.

[-he laughs too, after a second of consideration.]

Oh, definitely. Nothing would get done.

It'd be such a shitshow.

All right, all right, so-- if our 'demons' had to decide who was in charge. Who would win and why is it Bloody Mary.

Oh, it's absolutely Bloody Mary, no contest. But I bet Blue Hawaiian and Malibu Sunset would give her a run for her money.

Almost definitely. I think the two of them would be a force to be reckoned with, if they wanted to be.
