How could this happen? (afterparty)

[folkscallmewander]

[Wander has reeled back from this execution faster than Mulan's. This murder wasn't an accident, but it was still terrible all around, and it wouldn't have happened under normal circumstances. Knowing that Tadashi planned this out made it...a bit better, but it still made something awful eat at his stomach.

Speaking of which, everyone needed to eat something light today. Right after the trial, he heads to the kitchen and prepares twenty bowls of fruit salad and mixes together ingredients for chocolate chip cookies. While they're cooling off, he slides a note under everyone's rooms.]



There's fruit in the lounge, cookies coming soon. We should stick together, especially after this.

You aren't the only one to fall back into bad habits.

The wrong behavior got punished. Everyone learned a lesson. All there is to it.

[She makes a disgruntled noise. Look she's trying to be nice for once why are you making it so hard for her.]

I dunno, I guess I'm glad we had to punish an actual murderer instead of a victim of an accident, but II don't get the point of these public execution. I know it's not our fault he had to die like that but his execution seemed so cruel.

[whistlenotchirp]

[He has to be the moral authority at all times.]

...Well, sure. That part's. Unnecessary. Needlessly horrific, really.]

[thetimebomb]

It's torture, that's what it is. I know they wants us to break but flab drassit I can't think of a good reason why.

[She's still hung up on this. She doubt it would be any comfort if she ever learns why this is all happening so horrifically but it would provide a good explaination.]

[whistlenotchirp]

Sick perversion. The desire to corrupt. Financial gain. The usual motives.

[thetimebomb]

Can't be the third one. Wander and I don't really have a whole lot of money in the first place. We're not broke, but there are millions of people in my galaxy who are a lot richer than we are.

Plus I'm not sure anyone would accept any ransom people would put on us.

[Sure they're famous but they don't know a lot of people who would be willing to fork over that much money... she thinks.]

[whistlenotchirp]

Well, there's also...

[...Does space have chickens? Wait, there was Honey Nut, they at must least have an idea.]

Ever heard of cock fighting?

[thetimebomb]

Of course I've heard about that, why-

[-Oh.]

I... actually can't put it past these guys to do something like that.

[whistlenotchirp]

If its any consolation, the bets on you beating me are probably much higher than the, uh, other way around.

[Poorly timed joke?]

[thetimebomb]

[Very poorly timed.]

Buddy I don't think you know this, but I really wanna survive all of this without having to kill anyone.

[whistlenotchirp]

[He feels somewhat patronized]

Yes, obviously, keeping death to the minimum would be. Appreciated.

[thetimebomb]

[She's totally doing this on purpose. Is it petty? Totally, but she doesn't care.]

I've said this day one that I am clearly one of the least likely people. Trust me, you guys will never have to worry about me killing anyone.

[whistlenotchirp]

[Uh Sylvia you did a DAMAGE against a PROPERTY and that is very bad, almost bad as a murder, and very suspect in Jiminy's book.

But he's tired so. A later day topic.]

If you say so.

[Or he'll still be sassy and vaguely insinuate things, that works too.]
