I didn't ask you to promise anything, Jonas. I'm not asking for anything.
[ he says that gently, hoping that this time, it will stick ]
[ If anything.... I wonder if there's anything I can even do to make things better for them. Aside from kill myself or let someone else not on Froggystyle kill me... ]
Of course. I'm still planning to do everything in my power to save as many people as I can. I think we can all agree on that.
I know. I'm just...[ he frowns, trying to think of how to explain. ] I don't know. I'll do what I can to at least try and keep things neutral for everybody. But I can't tell them not to be upset. [ a pause. ] And for what it's worth I don't think killing yourself is going to help either. So...get off that trail.
As long as everybody remembers why we're here and what we're trying to do, I think we can get through the next week. Everything after that, well, whatever. But it's stupid to trip at the finish line.
[ everyone can have hurt feelings and can choose not to engage with people, as long as it's not a detriment to the goal. that's the whole point, he thinks. ]
Of course. And... I mean, I... I've been tryin' to give ya all space, but if ya think it would be better for me to try to talk to them, too, I can try. Don't mind being punched or anything, either, but, uh.... [ That might not help, because you guys might hurt your hands.... ]
[ but honestly, he doesn't want to put the burden of keeping the peace on jonas, either. he just doesn't know if there's anything he can do to ease their pain or give them any kind of closure, since, well... he caused this ]
I didn't think so, either, but someone did want me to let their team kill them. [ And it wasn't Froggystyle... ]
[ he is nodding to that ]
That won't be a problem on my end. And if there's anything I can do to make it smoother.... really, the least I can do.
No, don't. [ he seems resigned by that. ] Let me...get the vibe first, I'm not sure talking would go well for anybody unless they approached you first. I can handle them probably better than any of you can handle each other at the moment. Or...I don't know. Ask if they're receptive. And if not, leave it. Give them a choice.
[ he doesn't want to have to keep peace, but he is. well-aware of how things would go and he wants to cause the least amount of problems right now. ]
...seems like there's been a lot of influence going around. At least nobody listened to that one.[ even if he figures that would just go a certain way anyway. ]
If I think of anything I'll let you know. The most we can do is just...focus on the goal. The rest should sort itself out.

[ livio nods. that is essentially what he thought, that he should leave them be to avoid making anything worse ]
... I thought it'd be best to give you all space, unless you approached first. [ like jonas did today! ]
[ Maybe I could try texting Kazuki and Alex... just asking if they want to talk. ]
That's what I plan to do. [ focus on the goal. help froggies win this so they can save everyone ] Contact me anytime if there's anything I can do. I'm... basically okay with anything that isn't outright getting murdered. [ this is like, half a joke, but only half ]
...it's complicated. Come on too strong, they'll revolt. Ignore them entirely, they'll be mad. [ it's all about checks and balances and jonas is doing his best to keep everything balanced. normally he tries not to address thoughts, but... ]
You could try texting. If they don't want to, they'll just leave you on read. And then everybody will know and have the option. [ there's a wry smile. ] I think after this all of us are going to be done murdering each other as an option. The best we can do is keep our eyes open and ears to the ground for anything that might change soon. Keep everybody informed as best as we can.
[ everyone, screaming: DON'T TELL THE REAPERS SHIT. ]
Don't thank me unless it actually works out, man. [ all of it, he means. ] I think by now everybody's gotten the memo not to share with the Reapers, and if they haven't, then...we just remind them. Easy.
