week 1, friday

[ninjay]

[ a few hours after the investigation wraps up, jay will make his way to room 108 and knock on the door.

if no one shows up he'll just leave because this isn't that important, but. he figured he should check on things. ]

Wow, I wasn't actually expecting you to answer that seriously.

[she chuckles a little, because she's not sure if he's making that up but also why would he?? anyway. she figures the murder part is something he's been asked about, and probably not something he'd really divulge on anyway...]

But my real question is the espionage bit. You're a spy?

[ninjay]

Enough people have asked me about the otters that I might as well answer honestly.

[ as honestly as he can without giving too many details anyway. ]

As for your second question... I collect information back home.

[wristbands]

[she wants to ask exactly what for, but that also might not be an answer she can get.]

So that's why you're so thorough about investigations and finding things out.

[ninjay]

I don't like to do things poorly, especially with something as important as our lives on the line.

[ his patience is gonna get tested so much in the upcoming weeks, he can already tell. ]

[wristbands]

Well... it's good we have you around, then.

It's gonna be hard.

[ninjay]

It will be. We will have to depend on everyone's strengths. If they have any.

[wristbands]

As long as their strength isn't lying.

[ninjay]

Well, that would actually be useful.

[ he shrugs. ]

It's more like... as long as they're not lying about committing murder.

[wristbands]

[and she winces.]

Yeah, that's what I was trying to get at.

[ninjay]

We'll see how it goes. If they're inexperienced, then chances are they'll make mistakes, especially since they'd probably be rushing to kill their victim before time's up.

[wristbands]

Ugh, the fact that we even have to think about this stuff... discussing people's motives and methods like we're talking about what to get for dinner.

[ninjay]

It's a hard pill to swallow, but something we must do regardless of our discomforts.
