Okay.

Were you approached?

[stillnot]

Yeah. I tried to say no, but...

[ shadows care not for rejection. ]

[preowned]

What is even the point of asking in the first place then...

[ stupid ass shadows ]

[stillnot]

That's what I want to know. Why bother?

And why bother with hostages and motivations if people aren't choosing things for themselves anyway?

[preowned]

Right... it's probably just backups after backups, since I think everyone would be too wary to just try killing on their own.

But it's just going to make people more suspicious.

[stillnot]

I wanted to know what happens if we don't catch someone that's possessed, but... Guess we still don't know.

[preowned]

It's hard to say...

I know in the village, the person would just continue killing over and over again. But that's just one place of many.

[stillnot]

It's possible.

The contract kind of says not to bother killing more than once, but... I don't know how much the Shadows care about it.

[preowned]

Mm. And you don't have to get away with it, too...

But who knows? You would assume it's more entertaining to do more kills.

[stillnot]

Maybe it gets boring to watch the same person get away with it over and over.

[preowned]

It could...

[ he sighs. ]

It would be easier if we knew what they actually wanted.

[stillnot]

I thought it would be clear with the contracts, but... Everything they do doesn't line up with them.

[preowned]

No...

But, at the very least, your hostage should be safe.

[ as long as that's true. ]

[stillnot]

He'd better be.

[ imagine going through all this for nothing!!!!!!! haha!!! ]

[preowned]

He will. There is no point in thinking otherwise now.

[stillnot]

... You're right.

[ she doesn't like undue optimism, but supposes she would rather die thinking one positive thought. ]

[preowned]

... you're probably going to be sent to another place after tomorrow.

So, just take care of yourself over there.
