[he sighs.]

As shitty as being forced to kill is, at least there's some leeway in picking a target... On the other hand, if it's possession or whatever, then our hosts can claim some modicum of innocence.

I was thinking more, like... If someone got possessed, it sucks even more for them in some ways, but at least they didn't make an active decision to fuck us over.

[She shrugs.]

Well, that too.

...I guess we'll find out tomorrow if they were possessed or they're just a piece of shit, anyways.

Unless we manage to screw the whole thing up so badly that we never catch them, at least.

[After a few seconds:]

Oh, is that not normal for you, or...?

No, it was pretty normal for us. Though we did at least catch the first one at the last minute?

You know, normally I would say 'at least it wasn't us', but that's too much of a dick move even for me.

[he shrugs.]

Death sucks, no matter who it is. [a beat, and wow time for a subject change.] By the way, have you heard about the effects?

Like, the stuff with all of us accidentally getting stuck together all week? Yeah, Beau told me.

[he shakes his head.]

Aside from those who were awake on Thursday night—that is, the killer and the victim—people wake up on Friday suffering weird effects. Something they've copied here from the house, apparently.

Experienced anything like that?
