[Week 3, Friday: 2B]

[doublecrows]

[there is only one person Akechi seeks out after the announcement]

[hi, 2B]

I assume Monika wasn't you?

Comments

[function]

[ look, she's fine? everything's fine ]

Don't patronize me.

[doublecrows]

[he didn't think she was responsible, but nevertheless, the verbal confirmation causes his shoulders to droop]

Fitzgerald-san, then.

[how apropos]

. . . I suppose I should be thanking you for preventing me from having to commit that murder myself.

[he says, but his tone is flat]

[function]

He was the most logical target.

[ man, this is a very detached conversation. she pauses, then, ]

I didn't think you'd kill again.

[doublecrows]

[detached is just the way Akechi likes it]

I have a new objective which asks me to.

[he answers simply]

Fitzgerald was, as you said, the most logical target.

[and he's still pissed about Natsuo, so you know]

[function]

[ mood ]

What is your exact objective? Just murder someone else?

[doublecrows]

Murder someone via drowning.

[oh]

[pleasant]

With Fitzgerald gone, I'm not so certain I'll find another suitable victim. Unless. . . of course, Monika's gets away with their crime.

[and here, he's torn. on one hand, he wants them found, he wants them executed. on the other hand?]

[he wants the pleasure of doing it himself. just as he did with Natsuo's killers]

[function]

[ 2b's eyes flash with anger at his suggestion, but of course he can't see that. he can hear her growl, though. ]

If anyone's going to kill them, it's going to be me.

[doublecrows]

Oh?

[ARE THEY GONNA FIGHT]

I see now reason why we can't work together.

[function]

[ don't killsteal!! that's bad team etiquette ]

. . .

If that's gonna be the case, at least we don't have to worry about accidentally choosing the Frog Prince.

[ r i p ]

[doublecrows]

[it's not killstealing if they do it together!!]

That's Monika's title, isn't it? She shared it with me earlier this week.
