... is it okay if I say I got better?

[skyagain]

... It's not worse, but...

[ he's squinting like he is unsure if tsuru really did get better. this is.......a concern ]

[preowned]

I am wearing white, which means it's fine.

[ that's it

that's his argument ]

[skyagain]

... Tsurumaru. [ :| ] Because the color's the only way to tell?

[preowned]

Yes, that's how it works...

[skyagain]

So how'd they separate the armor from you, then?

[preowned]

Oh.

By stabbing me a lot.

[skyagain]

I don't know that I'd call you fine after that.

[ TSURU ]

[preowned]

It was either that or I killed them all...

[skyagain]

...

[ fair enough... ]

... But you got better? I don't know how healing works with the... sword thing.

[preowned]

I promise!

[ he raises his hands. ]

It worked out logistically for us. On its own, the armor was just too strong for us, but possessed... I was able to keep it still just long enough at one point they could hit me.

[skyagain]

So you knew what was happening in there even if you weren't in control? [ hm. that sucks. ]

[preowned]

... yes.

I suppose it's like a puppeteer controlling your every move. [ a pause ] Even if it's not the exact same that's happening here, I wonder if the killers feel similarly.

[skyagain]

... Probably. They might be more in control, but they're still doing stuff they wouldn't of their own volition.

[preowned]

[ he nods ]

The one who got away with it last week... I wonder how they feel.

[skyagain]

... At least guilty enough to either confess to assure people the shadows were gone from them, considering that note, or they haven't spoken up and they found out some other way. Either way, I doubt they feel great about it.

[preowned]

... I guess it's something all killers who get away with it have to deal with after.

Interacting with everyone else and lying.

[skyagain]

Yeah. I don't know what it's like in cases of possession, but... Some dealt with that better than others in the Realm.

[ ange your murder hands ]

[preowned]

I'm not sure either... in the village, when you were possessed you remained so until you were caught, so it's a different case then here...

[skyagain]

Yeah. Apparently another place was like that. Glad it's not the case here.

[preowned]

I can't believe we have to be thankful for this.

[skyagain]

No shit. It's exhausting. Not like we can get picky about good news in the murder hotel.

[preowned]

It would be nice to have a single good news.

... new? News?

[skyagain]

... I think it's still news when there's only one...?

[ this is stupid. ]

[preowned]

Huh...

That's weird...
