I didn't know about the little machine, either. But we ought to have asked about all of those items sooner.

...I do understand it. You wanted to have a trial where we looked at it, at all of it.

[hardrocklife]

[He nods.]

Yeah... I didn't want us repeating the mistakes we made last time.

[The mistakes that got Tuuri killed.]

[outsidebones]

Thank you for telling me.

[she does get it. she wouldn't have played nice and waited for trial if it was gideon. besides, it isn't like she reached out to him after tuuri died.]

[hardrocklife]

[he takes a drink of his beer and glances away. some of the tension has let up, now.]

Thanks... for not giving up on finding the truth. Glad someone would have gotten him, if I hadn't.

[he didn't know anyone else was still looking for kon and tuuri's killer. or that anyone was even close to figuring out who it was.]

[outsidebones]

A few of us wanted to find him. Tuuri asked me to, and Kon sent a letter to me trying to help. But...mm.

[she doesn't know how to talk to people who are grieving, so she didn't tell him.]

[hardrocklife]

[he looks a little thoughtful at that. hmm.

but most importantly...]

That plan you told me about yesterday...

We have to try it.

[outsidebones]

[she nods.]

Agreed.

Have you had the chance to think about it at all? We need a proposal to bring to Lord Satan that will convince him to let all of us go - including the dead and the personal demons - that will not disappoint or appear overly lenient to the bloodthirsty but drunken viewership.

They like seeing us kill one another. Notably, Lord Satan does not - I was startled by it, but he was upset about last weekend, for instance. But he is the boss, and he can't suddenly make hell no longer hellish without causing trouble for himself.
