No fun for the child who got dragged up there to deal with the child murderer's consequences though.

[ our poor walking cps advert, hunter. ]

Too early to say in exact terms. Someone'll take what that guy said to heart -- and then there's the fact the doors locked, we were all knocked out. Like it was planned. Either that guy was insanely well prepared to commit murder, or there was some kind of help.

[ontrend]

Ugh. Like, what the hell, though? Even if he was telling the truth... Satan'll only invite 20 of us to his party. So what? It doesn't sound like Satan's only ever gonna throw one party. If we don't score an invite this time, we can just score one next time.

I would hope people are smart enough not to jump straight to murder after hearing something like that.

[psynchronise]

... Some people might've been in pretty difficult situations before they ended up here. "Time is short" kinds of situations.

[ he sips his drink through his stupid straw. wheeee. ]

Not everyone's gonna have the luxury to wait for the next one -- especially if the seven weeks thing is already going to be more than they can afford to lose.

[ontrend]

Yeah, but if they get caught and double-die after all that? Bzzzzt. That's it, game's over, do not pass go, do not collect $200.

And it's not like killing a dude's gonna get you there any faster than seven weeks! The party's happening when it happens.

[psynchronise]

Again, some people would find that to be a risk worth taking.

Imagine going seven weeks, not being let in, and then finding out you have to wait again with another group of people, to maybe not get in the second time? Third time?

[ he shrugs. ]

It’s not like we have any reason to assume if we do make it back, we’ll make it right back to where we left.

[ontrend]

Well yeah, but if we're dead already, any chance at all is better than a zero chance. Like, I'm all for taking risks when it makes sense, but not the kind of risk where if I screw it up I can't ever try again.

[kuranosuke shrugs.]

We'd probably, like, rise from our graves or something. Which would totally freak out-- oh shit, they better not have cremated me, I don't want to become a sentient pile of ashes!!

[psynchronise]

[ it feels a bit like if he keeps this up they'll be arguing back and forth forever. ]

... I'm not saying I agree with it, I'm just saying I can see why some people would think differently and actually worry about that supposedly invitation limit.

[ there. ]

...

[ ah ]

Shit, do you think they'd do that that quickly?

[ontrend]

Fuck if I know! I hope they wouldn't, but who knows?!

[psynchronise]

I’m too good looking to be incinerated.

[ontrend]

Same here, dude!

[psynchronise]

Think we’ll get lucky and time’s just frozen where we came from? Or moving at a really, really slow rate?

[ontrend]

I can't think of why it would do that. If we were lucky, we wouldn't be in hell.

[psynchronise]

[ kuranosuke... no.... ]

Stop, I want to believe....

[ontrend]

Maybe we should ask one of the demons about it?

[psynchronise]

It’d be better than assuming. Even if we don’t like the answer.

[ontrend]

I guess so... I really can't imagine he wouldn't throw more than one party though, from the sound of it.

[kuranosuke has definitely been Assuming this whole time.]

[psynchronise]

[ yeah so they're gonna have a fun chat about that in their current pc ]

Maybe Satan's a real party animal?

[ontrend]

That's the vibe I've been getting!

[psynchronise]

So. We have to out party the party king.

[ dammit. ]

[ontrend]

That shouldn't be too bad, though! I party all the time. Live it up! Satan's about to see just how hard a connoisseur of Tokyo's nightlife can go!

[psynchronise]

“The connoisseur of Tokyo—“

Oh, another person from Tokyo?

[ontrend]

Yep! Seems like there's a few of us Tokyoites, huh?

[psynchronise]

Tokyo, but a littttle bit off. Everyone’s been from a different Tokyo, when we’ve got into the details.

[ontrend]

Weird how that works out...

[psynchronise]

Maybe Tokyo's secretly the centre of the world.
