probe | Audience: Sheila Hammond

Yeah...especially if it's a Wednesday. [she shudders at the thought.] But just making sure! I wouldn't want anybody being neglected on accident.

Or a Thursday... [Wrinkles her nose.] Neither do I. Wonder if I should think about keeping a social calendar...?

It's not a bad idea to be honest. There's too many of us and some of us don't always like talking, but then some of us get sad when we're ignored.

[she knows a little too much about the social dynamics of everyone.]

Aw... That's sad! I hope everyone is at least spending some time with you guys. You're so fun to hang out with.

Even the more difficult ones like Despair and Gluttony? [just raising both eyebrows here, teasing.]

... I can't talk about Despair, but Harrow likes them. Why not? And Gluttony's not so bad as long as you have table manners.

No offense to her because I like Harrow, too, but it's not like she's always the easiest person to talk to either. [but she considers that.] A lot of people think Gluttony's pretty scary, but it's usually the people who're rude. If you're polite, they're...less scary!

[gluttony still scawy.]

You think so? My definition of scary may be warped. [It's because you also feast on humans, Sheila. But she thinks about it.] Though, they do curse people with no warning. That's not super great.

It's really not! But I guess maybe their whole personality is a warning sometimes? You aren't like that, so it's different.

[scary warped or not, sheila's better.]

[mods love yourself and grant your character journals permission challenge]

Aw... That's so sweet! Though, I would call that a strategic advantage.

[no]

Well whatever it is, it's working. That has to count for something right?

Thanks! Every girl needs a secret weapon, you know?

You bet! I'm still not totally sure what mine is though.

[she has an idea, but hm.]

Whatever it is, you'll find it! Sooner or later. You don't have any ideas?

Maybe one or two...but that comes with being an idol anyway.

And you think those don't count as secret weapons?

It's not really a secret if everyone knows, right?

Some of the best secrets are hidden in plain sight.

...like ninjas? [no.]

[... she actually thinks about this.]

I mean... You know what a ninja can do, but they can still surprise you with their skills...?

I think so. Have you ever seen a ninja at work?

Nope. But it would be so cool to see one someday.

Wouldn't it? I kinda want to see if I can spot one in the wild, too. But maybe that would mean they aren't so great at their job...

[She nods, sadly.]

If you spot one in the wild, they're either terrible at their job or dead.

Yeah...I've never met one, but even the mafia's good at hiding out in the open. So ninjas have to be even better.
