It's not that I don't think it's still important to find them, but... I don't know. Don't get me wrong, if they were deliberately trying to frame somebody, that's majorly fucked up. But, like - if their goal was to keep all of us safe for the week...
[She misses when she could just hate this hypothetical person with no strings attached.]
[If that ain't the murder mood. He settles more comfortably against the tree, giving her a quiet look.]
No, I understand what you mean. Though unless this director made the request of them and let them know no one intended to kill that week, it's still a risky move to make.
[Like, what if they ended up with 5 dead people because a bunch of them decided to kill so no one would die??]
Mm, it does. [A little nod.] Not that that's surprising. We're only in our third week of this, after all... There's bound to be a lot of things making this even more complex that we haven't yet stumbled across.
Right. And... Honestly, if they did have that kind of reason, it still doesn't make it right, but - I kind of worry what would happen to them if they did speak up at this point.
[It may be rightfully so, but people sure are mad.]
Well, you can, actually. He's startled about the hug and blinks in surprise as she yells her NONSENSE AS SHE GOES-- And then he's just laughing, bright and fond.]
Hah, thank you! I appreciate you, too! [TAKE THAT, HIS NICENESS RETURN FIRE.] Take care, friend!

Did they imply anything like that?
no subject
They didn't say, and I didn't ask about that. But... It still makes it a little bit more complicated, right?

[There's a little wry quirk of a smile.]
Evan was caught, so he was able to start speaking again. What if the effect stays in place if you get away with a kill?

[It sucks, quite frankly!]

[A LITTLE HUFF OF A SIGH. He closes his eyes, leaning his head back against the tree trunk.]
Unfortunately, there isn't much we can do for it. Even explaining the potential motive won't excuse that person in everyone's eyes.

[She is definitely anticipating Murder.]

[People very rarely, in his experience at least, don't lose their shit when dealing with someone they haven't Pardoned Of Their Demon Crimes.]
But I do agree with you personally, in any case.

I - appreciate you! But only because of the task!
[Goodbye.]
