[is it sad, mahito. is it]

No.

[touchups]

[Yeah he's crushed!! It's so sad.]

Is that just 'cuz so many people aren't killing...

[THEY STILL REGULARLY HAVE AT LEAST TWO BODIES A WEEK.]

[probe]

[dryly:] I wish all of you were dead.

[touchups]

[HE JUST LAUGHS. Terrible. Hate that Pride is a fav.]

Maybe you'll get it!

[probe]

I can only hope.

Thought you'd be faster than this. You, specifically.

[touchups]

[DON'T OPEN THE FLOODGATES PRIDE... Mahito's immediately looking so sulky, throwing his hands up into the air, good lord.]

Yeah! Me too! But then Endorsi went and got attached to like, twenty-five whole people when we need her for cover, and everyone else decided they wanted to be cops after all! What the hell's up with that?! Now they wanna set traps and solve every murder? What's the point if they won't even vote for the killer if it's someone they like or someone whose reasons they agree with, anyway! [HUMAN EMOTION!!! VILE.] And now I have to be extra careful, ugh... It's way more fun to stick around and not be dead and all, but killing a couple every other week is sooo boring!

[HIS INSTINCT VS REASON BATTLE, PRIDE!! He's literally just complaining about not being able to copiously murder in the same way someone would complain about an inconvenient holiday family dinner...]

[probe]

[god i hate that icon so much put it in the dirt

pride seems amused, though.]

You could just kill Endorsi. Then you wouldn't have that problem.

[sighs]

[touchups]

[STOP IT'S SO FUNNY.

Also funny they should mention that.]

Yeah, I was kind of thinking about it... But the reward she got is so funny! I wanted to see her use it.

[This may just be the only reason he is not killing Endorsi so he can get at the cops.]

[probe]

[MAHITO

pride huffs out a laugh.]

You could see her use it on you. [...] You could watch her use it on someone and then catch her while she's unaware.

[touchups]

[HE'S NOT GOOD!!!!

APPARENTLY NEITHER IS PRIDE WHO CONTINUES ROCKETING UP ON MAHITO'S FAVORITES LIST.]

Wah, that's harsh... [As if he wouldn't absolutely do this.] There are some other pretty funny ways to use it that she'd need to be alive for! But that's not a bad idea, mm.

[probe]

[hate that they have the same bad opinions]

What, making two people fight each other to the death wasn't harsh?

[touchups]

[SOMETIMES... YOU JUST VIBE WITH A CURSE'S BAD OPINIONS. Too many people here do.]

Maaaybe, but that would have been really funny if it worked out! I mean, it was still pretty funny.

[Please... their villain monologues... He was trying so hard not to howl.]

[probe]

It was stupid.

[but they don't sound that critical, honestly. it was pretty funny.]

[touchups]

[He notices the lack of critical tone and appreciates that Pride can enjoy the terrible chaos he sets into motion. At this rate Pride might outrank Gluttony just by virtue of not being constantly exhausted by him...]

It was, yeah! [THAT'S WHERE THE HILARITY LIVES.] But I really hope the next plan doesn't go so far off the rails, hah. I was gonna talk to Greed about it later, but they really don't seem to like murder?

[Wow, weird.]

[probe]

They're on the other side of the law, so no. They don't like murder.

[sniff.] Still. They're supposed to help, so they will.

If they don't, I'll see what I can do.

[touchups]

Yeah, I got the feeling it was something like that...

[A SIGH. Can't believe some dingdong ace attorney decided it was a good idea to pick a murder goblin for their team.]

They do help! But it's kind of... [Trailing off........] --I still reeeally don't get why they picked me! It feels like I get along with almost literally the rest of you better because no one else seems that fussed with stabbing?

[probe]

Some of us are more sentimental than the others.

[touchups]

[The expression he makes is one of vague disgruntlement... He understands sentimentality in a "I know what it is" way, but he will never truly get it.]

Sentimental... [A considering beat, and then a sigh.] It's so weird.

[probe]

It is weird, yes. There's not much room for sentimentality here.

Still. It helps meet goals.

[touchups]

Does it? What kind of goals does it help with?

[He doesn't sound too surprised or disbelieving, though. It takes all sorts...]

[probe]

Indulgence ones. If you all care about each other you're more likely to fulfill the indulgence requirements.

[touchups]

[SOUNDS FAKE TO MAHITO MAHITOSON who cares about no one and indulges daily, but he might be spiders georg here.]

Is that how it works? Eh... [EH......] Better for them, I guess. And you! The sooner we're gone, the better.

[probe]

The sooner you're gone the better, yes.

[they repeat, dryly.]

[touchups]

O-kay, we'll work on it, then!

[Good thing Childe learns more than he does because he gets distracted talking about the nature of humanity again. GOD.]

Anyway, that's all - I just wanted to give you that. I'll talk to you later, okay?

[probe]

[they give a little half-assed wave and then... vanish, bye flea]
