[ law will just raise an eyebrow at the admission but won't comment on it because, well, looks at one piece and nods. ]
There's still the possibility of it being a red herring that's meant to throw us off with things just being that convenient in terms of timing and location.
[ he'll pause for a moment to consider that possibility a bit more. was it really that likely? hmmm. ]
The only way to know is to try to replicate the same results as the first time it happened.
[ tilting his head. ] So, next week, it's even more paramount that we spend the night out of the rooms. In varied locations, with different people. I want to know what repeats, and what doesn't.
[ he grins a bit, turning his head to look at law proper; there's a twinkle in his eyes. ]
Do you think I have that much authority?
[ honestly, if he wanted to, he probably could. ] I won't coordinate anything, but I will be keeping my ear to the ground for situations like that.
[ aka thanks for helping ♥ ] You should make sure you find at least one other person to stay with you, though. After this, I think many will be even more suspicious; a lone soul is a person with no alibi.
[ blech. he helps but not because he wants to!!! he has his own agenda...probably. ]
You seem to have the ability to either annoy someone enough to get them to rebel against your wishes or the ability to get along with them enough to get them to do what you want them to do.
[ you know. ]
We might want to be careful about making the latter too wildly encouraged. Co-conspirators can make use of that to make them less obvious. [ it's good thinking but he'll always want to offer the flips side. you know, just food for thought. ] If it already hasn't become obvious to them.
[ IM IN TEARS THE WAY YOU JUST NAILED HIM IN ONE SENTENCE ]
Hm.
[ that's it. that's all the response law gets to that, apparently! that twinkle in his eye remains, though, mouth quirked up in a smile. ]
I agree, though. [ co-conspirators, he says, while saying "we" not a moment later, law... your tsundere. fufu. ] Best to find someone you feel is trustworthy... or someone you don't feel like will put a knife in your back, anyway.
[ LOOK.....it. wasn't that hard to do. i'm sorry. law will make a face at the consistent twinkling. it seems shady—stop. ]
The latter might not be too hard to find. If worse comes to worse, there's always the others [ their ""teammates"" ] to consider talking to.
[ admittedly as soon as he says that, law feels himself age like 4000 years because of vlad and molly. ...though molly is more on the terms of what happened just moments ago than molly as a whole. ]
[ MY CHAOS TWINK anyway he is kind of shady so that's fine. ]
Hmm. [ some of that mischief falls away from gu yun's expression, though, as law brings them up. vlad's one thing - unfortunate about the whole voting thing, but he can probably see where it came from - but molly's situation is another. ]
We're not a team. [ he says, idly, quieter. ] Our goals just might, or might not, align. We're supposed to be a rather prideful bunch, after all, bad at accepting help.
Though, I do think Masters means well - somehow. [ even if he's just bad at it. probably? gu yun's had like two conversations with him and he's also not a fan. ]
[ YOUR CHAOS TWINK...they're both shady, let's be real?? ]
We're definitely not a team. [ he's going to repeat it firmly. he doesn't want gu yun to mistake where law stands in all of this. ] I don't see any of you as my teammates, but I do acknowledge that if there is even the slightest bit of boon from us working together then I'll want to take advantage of that.
[ do pride indulgences stack in points(???) if it's with another pride??? :thinking: as for the avatars.... ]
[ ooooh, mysterious *~*~ there's a bit of a tease to that, too. it may never vanish, at this rate.
but! he seems to acknowledge the point, nodding along. seems he's of the same mindset. ]
Who, our other 'teammate'? [ a snort. vlad masters... ] Inevitably, he seems a rather troublesome person, but I don't think he's necessarily attempting to make anyone uncomfortable on purpose.
[ gu yun's current assessment on vlad is that he just has literally no tact at all. or he's a sociopath. or maybe both? who knows. ]
[ because law actually refers to people by their last names or their nicknames which he doesn't come up with on his own so! here we are. ]
...and I don't think you're wrong but he is— [ desperate? always down to fuck? hmm. ] —eager. Whatever he wants is enough that he certainly has no qualms about getting started on doing what the avatars encouraged from the start.
[ unless he's really that horny on main which law heavily suspects too but YOU KNOW. ]

[ so, you know, like bunk out here. ]

You think it's going to happen again, too. [ it's not a question. ]
no subject
[ easily because, yeah? yeah. ]
Something like this won't be a single time occurrence whether there's foul play or if someone else's hands have gotten involved.

[ which if he does, power to him, but law will do his own things... ]
I plan on staying in this room the same time next week to see if the results are going to be the same, or if I'll be met with something else.
