[ oh. the question surprises him, and it takes him a moment to answer as he thinks it over.

he does smile eventually. ]

Yes. I was right that I don't actually kill Miki, but it's still my fault she dies. It's my fault our entire world ends, basically. I kickstart the apocalypse.

[nascens]

[Gotdam, Ryo's out here doing what he couldn't. There's a little faint hint of a smile in return.]

Most worlds aren't worth preserving, anyway. [He will DIE ON THIS HILL.] You aren't human, correct?

[preordain]

[ theres a nod. ]

I'm not. Admittedly, I thought I was, but the fact that I'm not makes more sense.

[ definitely a 'oh yea that explains things' moment ]

[nascens]

[HELP him really just out there like "oh yeah, huh, makes sense" about this girl help he's so funny. This is why Ryo was his second favorite.]

It's a shame we didn't get to speak a little more about it. I didn't dislike talking to you. I don't dislike you.

[Which is as close to liking someone as he GETS.]

What are your plans?

[preordain]

[ yeah sometimes you're just like i see! wow! and then go end the world

it does feel kind of like a waste. ryo thinks they really should have just scapegoated filbo. ]

As of this point, I'm not sure. I do really want to kill Harrowhark, so I'll think about it.

[ he is still so cursed because of itto. help. ]

[nascens]

[Honestly valid, same hat, would do the same if he had cosmic world-ending powers. Did try to do the same, actually?? also the way he voted for filbo for real

ANYWAY ITTO REALLY DID THIS TO THEM.]

Don't be too hasty.

[preordain]

[ he frowns. ]

It seems like a good idea.

[ truly was barely holding himself back all trial. itto was complaining about a lack of a fist fight but it would have not ended in just a fist fight. ]

[nascens]

[Truly wished Ryo had harpooned Harrow in the middle of a trial in front of god and everyone. She could have matching shoulder wounds with Itto.]

It will likely seem like a less attractive idea if you give it a little more time. [HE. ASSUMES. Imagine if it was a forever pumpkin.]

But in the meantime, I can give you something.

[preordain]

[ as of right now he doubts it'll last forever but it's fine.

he tilts his head at the next comment. ]

What is it?

[nascens]

[IS IT FINE.

Well, yeah, probably. Anyway, he'll reach into his shirt because of course he's hiding like fifty fucking things in here and no one ever checked him. He'll slide out a piece of something, passing it over from between the bars. It's... licorice flavored gum! Gross.]

I'd still suggest saving it, and it's not anything that will sate bloodthirst, but it should be a little amusing. I got it from Chandra. A piece of gum that makes someone ridiculously happy and also a bit stupid for forty-eight hours. Not that it'll make much of a difference for many here, but still.

[preordain]

[ oh. this is so funny, actually. he takes it, giving it a look, before tucking it into his pocket. ]

Still, it could be useful. You never know.

[ right now he's like, i can use it on harrow, unfortunately. on sunday he might still feel the same simply because it's hilarious. ]

[nascens]

[Honestly he thinks Ryo is fair and valid and this is why he is leaving him with a parting gift, this shitpost ability. Be free, freaky man, be free.]

It could be, especially if someone decides to try taking you out. Just be sure to tell at least one other person what it does.

[Though Chandra tried that and the one person he told was fucking Scaramouche so here they are.]

I think it might just be funny to see someone acting out in a trial though, personally.

[preordain]

[ he thinks about telling akira, but also, akira is the most likely to try to kill him so there's a problem here. ]

If no one ends up attacking me, who do you think would be the funniest person to use it on?

[nascens]

[YALL. BLEAK.

He also just laughs.]

Whoever's the exact opposite of blindingly happy and somewhat stupid, most likely.

[Just say Harrow.]

[preordain]

Oh. Harrowhark.

[ yeah he'll just say it ]

[nascens]

I don't think she'd be a bad choice.

[He's lashing out in no particular direction for being handheld cursed literal weeks ago.]

[preordain]

I do think some people need to be humbled every now and then.

[ these two get extremely humbled tomorrow, so, ]

[nascens]

[IN FRONT OF SATAN AND EVERYONE damn.]

I just think it'd be entertaining.

[He likes Harrow but unfortunately, he also likes Chandra, so you can see how well Scaramouche liking you works out.]

[preordain]

Well, there's only a few weeks left until the party, so if anything it might just make something into an interest trial later.

[ he is just assuming someone else is going to end up dead. maybe three people now. ]

[nascens]

[He would laugh so hard if they upped the ante. DON'T LET HIM DOWN.]

True, true. Hah-- That's one thing of many that I'm not going to miss. Those nine cramped hours watching everyone run around assigning ridiculous theories to straightforward things.

[ENJOY YOUR TRIALS SUCKERS.]

[preordain]

[ he makes a slight face. god he still has to suffer that. help. ]

Or the weekly bonding exercises they make us do...

[ mini event... ]

[nascens]

[This is his penance for getting away with his little murder paws.]

Haha, true. I won't miss that, either. [LITTLE DO THEY KNOW IT'S ON BOTH SIDES.] I may be dealing with Childe over there, but more of the annoying people are over here, too. To be honest, I think I got a pretty good deal.

[Outside of the whole losing his shot at revival thing but literally all he was going to do was go back and try to kill Nahida again anyway.]

[preordain]

[ HELP ryo actually shouldn't be revived either someone really needs to kill him.

but that's true... most of the people ryo complain about are on this side. perhaps he got the worse deal after all. ]

The messages from the others do make it sound like they're pretty alright over there, despite everything.

[nascens]

[LET HIM BE FREE TO WREAK HAVOC.

Ryo is truly cursed though. RIP to Marshal.]

As far as I'm aware, that's because that side is the "real" Hell. This is more of a holding pen for acclimation or some such nonsense, meant to keep us and our damage contained.

[preordain]

I guess that might be why this side has the chance of being revived? You're not with the rest of them just yet.

[ like

honestly this seems like the only reason to not just take yourself out and immediately go to that side ]
