Huh? No, that's just common sense. 'Sides, giving out power was part of my job once, and you don't wanna know what I did with some of the people I rejected.

[sengokus]

[a beat]

No, I probably don't.

[but he'll just sigh a bit and nod along.]

Yeah... Well - I hear that some people are getting more useful powers at least. Kinda wish that was me, but hopefully we can rely on them a bit more tomorrow.

[enfangs]

Or they could've been used to kill people.

[sengokus]

[ . . . ]

Ashiya-san's acting weird today - if you run into him. He's kicking stuff, but really suddenly, and it seems like it's just whatever's on the ground.

We don't know why.

But maybe it's nothing.

[enfangs]

Huh. Well, that guy always seemed like a weirdo, so it wouldn't surprise me.

[sengokus]

I think Ashiya-san's pretty cool....

But - yeah. Just keep it in mind tomorrow. I don't know if any of the... victims had access to a secondary power or not.

[enfangs]

You think everyone's cool in some way. [...] You, uh, doing okay, by the way?

[sengokus]

Depends. I can really hate some people.

[but he won't go into detail about it. instead at the question he just pauses.]

... No. Luca-san was my friend. I liked Vlad-san, actually, even if everyone else thought he was weird and... Starphase-san.... He reached out to me even after we fought. We were probably never going to get along... but he probably didn't deserve to die.

[enfangs]

[...]

Well... we'll see what we can figure out tomorrow.

[sengokus]

[ . . . he nods.]

You know, it's gonna get harder from here. Vlad-san was everyone's back-up vote anyway.

.... I hate that we all have the responsibility of choosing who's gonna die. That's not right.

[enfangs]

Which part: that it's on us or the dying?

[sengokus]

Both.

[just. yeah.]

None of us are qualified to make a choice in nine hours.

And death is an extreme punishment regardless.

But I've been saying that for weeks now, and I'm not sure if that's ever meant to change.

[enfangs]

Honestly, probably not.

[sengokus]

[ . . . . he hates it.]

.... but is it really supposed to be this straightforward...? Maybe it is. Maybe it is just a stupid race....

[enfangs]

Maybe someone up there just enjoys watching us pick each other off one by one.

[sengokus]

[ . . . . he just scowls and shakes his head.]

Then we better get a chance to punch them in the face when we're done.

[enfangs]

[he grins.]

Hey, I can get behind that.

[sengokus]

[there's just a huff]

I just... keep feeling like there's something more, you know? What with all the weird stuff that can happen that the Avatars don't even expect....

[enfangs]

Probably. I mean, when you think about it, what does whatever brought us here get out of helping us?

[sengokus]

That's what I've been asking and nobody's given me an answer yet! Am I just asking the wrong people?!

[enfangs]

Can't help you there, I don't know shit.

[sengokus]

[he's just

sighing]

If you don't know shit... and I don't know shit.... who knows shit....

[enfangs]

Takeru and Endorsi don't know anything either?

[sengokus]

Hmm.... Takeru might know stuff but he still lies to me sometimes.

Why would Endorsi tell me anything?

[enfangs]

... Didn't you say you trust them?
