Oh, so we're polite arsonists now.

Maybe if we ask first, we'll have better results than the riot squad.

[ windmilling... ]

[vigilantics]

I don't know how anyone could look at us and think we aren't polite? You need manners before overthrowing a camp.

[recrypt]

Maybe it has something to do with all the talk of revolution and riots and punching things in the face we keep throwing around?

[vigilantics]

[ she seems to think about it

and then shakes her head. ]

Nah. Can't be.

[recrypt]

Hm.

Then I guess it must be Asch's fault.

[vigilantics]

That's the... yelly redhead, right?

[recrypt]

That's him.

[vigilantics]

Was he always that loud?

[recrypt]

I think he's gotten a little better, actually.

That said, he's probably doing it on purpose.

[vigilantics]

... on purpose.

You know, after everything, I can't say I'm surprised.

[recrypt]

What, that someone as prickly as him has what I suspect to be quite the martyr complex?

[ sorry not sorry asch, you do this to yourself ]

[vigilantics]

If he's loud enough they'll go after him instead?

[recrypt]

If he's unlikable enough people won't feel bad about him dying. Or so I assume. He did take the vote on himself one time when it didn't seem we were finding the monster fast enough, but that was a slightly gentler ordeal than just yelling a lot about it.

[ beat. ]

It's either that or he's afraid to look stupid making friends and being bad at it.

[vigilantics]

If it's the last one, then he shouldn't worry.

There are so many people here who are bad at making friends.

[recrypt]

Since when were people logical.

[vigilantics]

Never.

But I can dream.

[recrypt]

So long as you realize it, at least...

[vigilantics]

Well... I think that we have our good moments, too.

[recrypt]

... regarding what, specifically?

[vigilantics]

[ she considers... ]

... after everyone realized what was going on, they were kind to Evan.

I appreciate it.

[recrypt]

... I think most of us have had our fill of cruelty for the sake of it in itself. If we ever cared for it at all.

It was an accident. Regardless of the consequences, I doubt many of us would have forgotten that.

[vigilantics]

I know. But it's still something I appreciate regardless.

[ she knows that there are probably people out there who wouldn't have cared if it was an accident or not, so it's nice to know that the ones who ended up in the camp aren't like that, from what they've seen. ]

[recrypt]

Hehe. When did common decency become so rare in the world, right?

[ granted, they have pretty justified reasons to be angry at ending up in another murdergame, and maybe if they'd tried to go towards the camp and call for help instead things might or might not have been different, but

lamenting what's already happened isn't going to do much. ]

[vigilantics]

I guess you can say it's a sign of the times, but...

[ ... ]

We'll be fine.

[recrypt]

... I sure hope we will.
