[hello date! kuranosuke is on the island with the execution bar, getting some fresh air - well, as fresh as the air can really get in hell - and drinking from a giant fishbowl while eating fried pickles. this is just how things are now.]
Oof, am I right? What the hell was all of that?

[ hello kuranosuke!! it seems as though life (death?) is going well at least there are fried pickles. ]
Some kind of statement? Really shitty performance art that ended with a man dead?

That's no fun though, is it?
[ "fun" ]
It's more fun to have a couple of people suffer, and from the way things were going? Maybe even have both of them die up there. Again. [ fuck this double dying thing is exhausting. ]

I dunno, I think it'd be plenty of fun to watch a child murderer get the shit beaten out of him by ... uh, himself. His inner demons? Whatever.
[sighs and eats a fried pickle.]
The question now is, how long until we have to deal with this crap again?

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.

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.

... 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.

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.

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.

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!!

[ 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?

Think we’ll get lucky and time’s just frozen where we came from? Or moving at a really, really slow rate?
[ kuranosuke... no.... ]
Stop, I want to believe....

It’d be better than assuming. Even if we don’t like the answer.
[ wow. i mean, probably. ]
Huh. I think this is the movie Zagreus and I watched last week?
[ hmm. ] The one with miserable BDSM practices?
