... mm. It seems like three of the deaths were connected. Except Julius, I guess?

[ he sighs ]

They're not going to tell us if all of the killers are alive or not, and the loophole that saved Ishikirimaru most likely won't work again.

[usogi]

You don't think so...? Why wouldn't it?

[WHO CHANGED THE RULES,,]

We could ask that too.... but I don't know. [they were on that rollercoaster recently? he actually doesn't like thinking about it being so dangerous] We know so little...

[bakaomi]

I spoke to Ambition about it. She said that allowing it to happen in the first place was bending the rules by a lot, so we shouldn't count on it happening it again.

[ or, at the very least, they should proceed with the assumption that it won't work again. if they just assume there will always be a safety net they'd probably get screwed over. ]

[senri groans]

Bambiiiii. Getting around the rules is your specialty!

[HE'S SO TIRED]

[bakaomi]

Yeah, which implies that it's even tricky for her, so...

[ PROCEED ASSUMING IT WON'T WORK ]

[usogi]

Ugh...

[he makes a face and just clings tighter onto taka]

... fine.... I mean - we should find out who did it anyway....

[bakaomi]

[ his frown deepens ]

... yeah. We should.

[usogi]

[ . . . he pauses for a second to give taka a brief kiss]

We will.

[bakaomi]

I already let her down, so I'd rather not do it twice...

[usogi]

[and senri winces quietly at that before reaching up to brush taka's bangs aside so he can look him in the eye]

.... we both let her down. I thought - no one would try anything before trial, so I...

[ . . . ]

If you're going to try to carry this, let's carry it together, okay?

[bakaomi]

[ the urge to argue is still there, but he manages to ignore it

instead, he takes senri's hand into his and squeezes it lightly. ]

Partners, right?

[usogi]

[senri will just smile softly at that, interlacing their fingers as he presses their lips together again]

Partners. And don't you forget it.
