week 2, saturday, chuuya/caren/assassin

[doublesmall]

[it's a while after the trial, and chuuya's been-- uncharacteristically quiet, honestly. he'd disappeared with caren for a while before finding assassin, and he's had very little to say.

up until he finally shoots assassin a grin, raising the bottle in his hand.]

I did tell you to just wait a little more, didn't I?

[doublesmall]

Probably. I guess there's still a chance they're just trying to earn trust while working against us, but... fuck.

[he huffs out a breath, shaking his head.]

Either way, their information is good even if they turn out not to be.

[shinssin]

Yeah, I'm with Chuuya. I don't know if they're a Reaper or not, but they know how to play the game, at least.

Ah, we can't rely on them all the time, though? We should do our own research. As far as I know, Reapers are those who don't have a fee. Terra told me he lost the Light inside him but...

[...]

Well... as much as I hate him, I don't think that's true.

[Caren nods in agreement. The partnerships are good but have sometimes felt businesslike; the four-of-them-now-three have incentives for working for information together that seem entirely different. And if just one or two people are doing the work, there's no diversity of information.]

Seeing as Reapers are former players, it should not be too hard for their to invoke the memory of that loss.

...Terra might have lost that once, then, we can assume, so he could know what that was like.

[doublesmall]

The problem here is that if they're good actors, it'll be hard to tell if they're lying about what they lost. I mean-- it's difficult to prove some losses in the first place, right? I can't prove there's shit I don't remember.

[shinssin]

I could always try to punch ya until they believe ya.

[sexorcism]

Don't be so hasty, Assassin. Your situations are the same. Just as easily, you could be pretending to not remember your True Name.

[A Servant who's forgotten his name is a tragic thing and weakened by the loss of it, but she's really the only one who would know just how vulnerable lying about his own identity could make him look.]

If you want to fight, do it when you have time.

[shinssin]

Tsk, if I remembered I would've won already...
