You think? I haven't actually talked to her that much so I'm not sure how much she's keeping to herself. [ but he frowns a little in confusion at that. ] Are you asking if I could slide and ram straight into somebody if I tried...? I--maybe? I haven't exactly tried it.
Fair enough. I don't always like humans either. [ he says, as a human. hysterically this is actually interesting to him because his conversations with lambda have been very different. also don't be confused about that? rang??? ]
[ help. desperately want to know how that went, but that's an endgame problem. for now, jonas doesn't think he's said anything different or remarkable and focuses more on the question. ]
We've tried it out a few times. We're supposed to be practicing as a team, too, once things start settling down again. We were going to on Thursday but then...you know. Doors locked, Hikari died. Everything over the last few days picked up.
[ he takes a moment to stare at him like he's debating what to say before neutrally asking: ]
Why're you asking anyway? [ he doesn't particularly seem to mind, he's just curious if it's out of curiosity or what. ]
Because if you said you weren't, then that means I've been overestimating everyone here.
[Because if Jonas, who so far seems both sensible and far more cautious than most, wasn't figuring out how to use his psych, then there's no way other people would be doing it. Rang really picked Jonas as outlier human to gauge the rest with.
But he doesn't push any harder on that, since that's apparently not the case. He is still a little huffy though,]
That, and it's annoying to think of people not appreciating the psychs they have.
[what use is HEALING for MURDER??? damb..... imagine what he could do with drift.....]
I don't know, man. I'm sure there are other people out there who aren't and are waiting for people to tell them how to use it. [ the tone is a little flat like he's thinking of a few people in particular, but it's fine. ] But I've been trying some things to see what can and can't be done. Our team's come up with some ideas we want to test together, too. It seems...really stupid to just sleep on it and not try.
[ so like. yeah. he kind of agrees even if it's less "i can totally use this to murder" and more "i have never had a power in my life." ]
Sort of sounds like you're a little disappointed with yours though?
Yeah, I was kind of watching it but...might depend on the severity of the wounds and how much effort you're using. [ he's not a healer, the fuck does he know. ] Sort of seems like there has to be a better application for that sort of thing to make it more even.
Tell me something I don't know. [ dry. it is extremely obvious and yet jonas is. still here? engaging with this? why. there are reasons but he mostly thinks because it's a little interesting to see what rang's opinions are. ] You could probably just ask. Not like people weren't just volunteering out of nowhere yesterday.
Nope, my schedule's pretty booked. [ lol. ] But you can't tell me there won't be people probably doing something dumb and hurting themselves along the way anyway.
I'm not a healer, but...pretty sure it's about opportunity. We're gonna have more missions and new places are going to be available to us. Something perfect might just drop straight into your lap.
I am pretty sure you and I have really different ideas of what counts as funny, Rang. [ lightly. and yet... ] Then again? It'd make just as much sense as anything else in this stupid place, so you might be on to something. Other than what happens at night, there's not, like, a lot of remarkable stuff that happens on Thursdays.

[JUST OFF THE BAT, he'll give this info to jonas for free!! it would be more valuable if lambda didn't make both of those things obvious.
he tilts his head, and then in the confused tones of someone who doesn't understand why jonas hasn't been ramming into people]
Why not?
no subject
I think the better question is why. Should I be?
no subject
that's very open-minded for a human to say though. maybe rang will understand why lambda is nice(????) to jonas, for now, he raises his eyebrows]
If not that, then you should at least be practicing other things. [...] You are practicing, right?
no subject

But he approves of the rest of this, even if it means his murder job in the future is now a lot harder. But that's what makes life fun?]
It's healing. You saw how Kyoko was doing after she helped the prince, and that was just a cut.
[it was on his leg and it was pretty bad????]
It's just get stabbed, heal, get stabbed again, and then you're dead.

no subject
I don't want it to be even. I want the advantage.
[as if this wasn't already very obvious, but he stops complaining long enough to eat a meatball,]
Also, there aren't enough people getting hurt to practice on.

no subject
Would you volunteer?
[that is not remotely what Jonas meant]
no subject
Nope, my schedule's pretty booked. [ lol. ] But you can't tell me there won't be people probably doing something dumb and hurting themselves along the way anyway.
no subject
Sure, but they'll probably all be healed by the time I get there.
[but he sounds less whiny than before at least,]
no subject
I'm not a healer, but...pretty sure it's about opportunity. We're gonna have more missions and new places are going to be available to us. Something perfect might just drop straight into your lap.
no subject
Mm, that's true. How funny would it be if that opportunity came on a Thursday?
[rang, laughing, as he eats a meatball like a weirdo]
