[ gazes at everything that happened today and gazes back here
she can't help but laugh a little at how much he's veiling with well-meaning. ]
You catch on quick.
[ that's one of the things she likes about him, but she makes a face at how many times she's heard someone thought simon could have killed her. ]
If Simon found out it was Ylfa who framed him, I don't think he would've hesitated in plotting against her, so we wanted to make sure the overall objective was safe. It worked out in the end.
[ it's a bit callous for her to say it like that, but truly, tbd came in clutch. ]
Oh, I know most of them will appreciate your care and worry. You can worry about all the fairytales Shenhe has been reading.
[ closes my eyes loudly at today. also he does sort of perk up a little at being told he catches on quick, because jonas may not be booksmart or anything but he does have a tendency to read between lines of things and draw conclusions. he's just glad they're the right ones. ]
Honestly? We were, uh. Kind of already planning on taking care of it even before we got the warnings from you guys. Everything after the trial for you and Shenhe didn't sit right with us, and we had the wrong conclusion entirely, but when we got everyone's letters and learned about what happened with Fukuzawa we went through with it anyway. I don't doubt he would've figured something out and tried to hurt either Ylfa or Haru in general. Whoever would've been easiest to take out to teamwipe. As you said though, it worked out in the end.
[ callous though it may be, he really does not feel bad about it shaking out this way. but uh. hello? ]
...I feel like if you're mentioning them at all and are incredulous about it, maybe I should worry about Shenhe's fairytales. Do I want to ask?
[ the teens aren't alright, but they were doing their best to take action in a way they felt was more meaningful. at least, that's the impression she's getting from what jonas is saying. ]
I won't judge you for when you stared planning it. It would have been a net gain for your team.
[ any way you slice it, killing gets the most points, no matter the reason or motive.
her lips curve in a smile. ]
It's mostly harmless, but one of them should explain why some messages were the way they are. You should ask her about it, if you find the time. It's fascinating what she's latched onto even if I hardly understand it.
We tried, but...you know. Justice killing Setsu really threw a wrench in our plans and lost us some bonus points, so it just kind of feels like...[ unfair. this is another unfair thing, and he just waves a hand. ] It's over, nothing to do for it now. I can't keep regretting things.
I'll ask her when I talk to her then. Shenhe is one of those people who is trying to learn more about being human so I guess that includes reading stories meant to shape humanity. If it's harmless though I won't worry too much. [ me, wondering if somehow shenhe found homestuck honestly. ]
... Yeah. If I were behind the rules of this game, I would've given you the rewards of your action since you didn't get voted for and hardly anyone looked at you during the trial.
[ but that was in part because setsu also died, and it's a moot point since she's not running this game and she's dead. ]
I think she's doing better and better in that regard. [ learning about and being more human. ] Which is a little funny when you consider how many of you decided to target nonhumans.
I appreciate the sentiment, Lambda. [ which, unfortunately, he does actually. horrible. ]
At least being on that side of things sounds like a little bit of an improvement in that case. But it's entirely possible all of the nonhumans are picking up cues from even worse sources. [ . . . ] A lot of people really did target you guys.
[ AND FOR WHAT. ]
Have you made peace with what happened? [ given that. gerard is there even if ylfa is not. he doesn't seem particularly fussed if the answer will be no though either, he's really just asking out of curiosity. ]
[ all the immortals and nonhumans dying means the teens shall inherit the earth. ]
Mm-hmm, so now you all have to shoulder the burden of living.
[ their fates are in teen hands (and 3 or so adults). ]
Oh, I don't hold any malice towards anyone in Froggystyle. If I hated everyone who tried to or has killed me, I wouldn't have any energy left. Their reasons and motives were reasonable, given the game premise.
[ even without the endgame conditions, she would have accepted it. she doesn't like or want to die, but she's no stranger to killing games. ]
I was more annoyed about how she covered up the murder than the actual murder.
[ as if she'd let a monkey get close enough to bite her like that. ]
Between you and me, Lambda, that's been a burden for longer than we've been playing this game. [ he does not elaborate. but he nods because this makes sense to him. ]
I think that's reasonable and that's a reasonable way to feel about it. I can't fault you for that. After all, we're the ones left to look at the remaining damage. [ but he shakes his head. ] It's fine. At least you made it over there.
