[it's fine!]

Maybe I'll hit Envy up sometime, then...

Though "special" doesn't sound very flattering when you put it like that.

[probe]

They'd like that.

[but they shake their head at that.] It's not like that. It's just...I dunno. I trust Pride with my whole life even if I'm pretty sure they still don't think it makes sense.

[enfangs]

... Well, I guess I can kinda get it.

[probe]

Yeah? [hmm...] ...wait from their end or mine?

[enfangs]

Heh. Which do you think?

[probe]

As much as you and I have in common? I'm gonna go with you being in Pride's position here.

[enfangs]

Bzzzt—but now that you mention it, yeah.

[probe]

Hey! That's cheating if it's both sides! [rude?] ...but it's nice to know you have people like that in your life, too.

[considering. white's history.]

[enfangs]

[sometimes you imprint on the only people to be kind to you and then run off and die for them yea]

Hope Pride isn't as much of a pain in the ass as that guy, though.

[probe]

Pride's a pain but, like, in a tsundere kind of way. You just have to know how to talk to them to get anywhere.

[though now they're just going to hum in thought.] Which guy are you talking about though?

[enfangs]

[JAN SQUINTS HARDER, WHO IS THIS WEEB]

... Lord Lessa. The geezer's the biggest moron I've seen, but...

[for all that lessa seems to create problems just by existing and being near him inevitably means getting dragged into them, it wasn't a difficult choice to follow after him—the one person to truly act as if white's life was worth anything at all.]

[probe]

[nyaaa.]

But he's important to you. [...there's another little moment of silence where lust seems to think.] He would miss you a lot if you were gone, wouldn't he?

[enfangs]

[...]

I don't even know what's going to happen to him from here, so... who knows?

[white might be the one flat-out dying, but lessa's survival is still precarious, even if they manage to prevent the universe from being destroyed.]

[probe]

...all the more reason to indulge and earn as much as you can, right? [that's very sad actually.] I think I understand how you feel though.

[enfangs]

[he tilts his head.]

Yeah?

[probe]

Yeah. [but they seem like that's all they want to say about that.] It's not that important though. It's just...kind of nice, I guess.

[to be able to relate.]

[enfangs]

[well, he won't pry.]

Misery loves company and all.

[probe]

Something like that. [...but anyway.]

...so. What are you going to do now, White?

[enfangs]

... Well, guess we gotta figure out what really happened. Not exactly easy to sleep at night when there might be an unknown threat around, right?

[except it definitely won't be him figuring anything out! finally, the no braincell life]

[probe]

[congrats on no braincell.]

I get the feeling some of you will sleep easier than others. But it's up to you, you know? Some people are going to want to find out what happened and others aren't going to care.

And maybe...people will change their minds later anyway.

[enfangs]

... Well, I'm not gonna pretend I'm morally offended that someone's going around killing. [he shrugs.] But when it could be my corpse next, it's worth putting some effort into.

[probe]

Then okay. [okay?] If you ever need my help, all you have to do is ask. I'll see what I can do.

[enfangs]

I'll keep that in mind... although I'm guessing the killer's also free to ask for favours from you guys, huh?

[probe]

[there's a shrug.]

I don't know. None of us knew someone was going to kill Tamaki, so we don't really have any experience with something like that. If they did ask, we could always say no just like the others could say no to you for whatever.

[enfangs]

So you don't have to be impartial or whatever? No boss overhead gonna come and smite you for not doing your job properly?
