[newlydead r3] day 11 - simon

[ibedeadpeople]

[unsurprisingly, the walk they take ends up going past the dressing rooms, though she hesitates before just slamming on in]

...I wanted to ask you some stuff, actually. Did you want to come in? I understand if you don't.

Comments

[court_chesster]

I don't mind. We can talk about whatever you want.

[ibedeadpeople]

Okay. [she invites simon and bargie in, then, offering him the chair, choosing to lean against the wall in a manner that doesn't quite seem relaxed. the room barely looks lived-in, save for a few water bottles and a folded blanket in the corner, and of course the empty serum bottle on the vanity.] Um, so, you knew a bunch of the people here from before, right?

[court_chesster]

[Takes a seat and has the dog do the same.]

That's right.

[ibedeadpeople]

What do you think of who we have left? I mean, with all the crazy stuff going on, it's hard to know who to trust.

[court_chesster]

They're all right. Corrin seems like a nice guy.

[ibedeadpeople]

What about Engarde?

[court_chesster]

I wasn't in the same round as him.

[ibedeadpeople]

But you're in this round. What do you think?

[court_chesster]

[leans in a little]

I-I don't think you should trust him.

[ibedeadpeople]

Yeah... There's the Miss Natsuhi thing, or Azura. Or what he tried to do to Yuzu this past voting round. It's...not really fair, right? That someone like that gets to stick around making victims of the rest of us.

[court_chesster]

And now it's like he's just laughing at everybody...

[ibedeadpeople]

Yeah... I've been wondering, what would happen if we gave him a taste of his own medicine. If we got the last laugh. Then, maybe... I mean, it wouldn't be that bad, would it?

[court_chesster]

What are you thinking? Pretending to vote for him?

[ibedeadpeople]

It seems the simplest way. You think it's a bad idea?

[court_chesster]

Do you think he's going to believe you?

[ibedeadpeople]

...That's why I need your help. Would you be able to? ...I understand if you can't. I'm pretty scared, too.

[court_chesster]

M-me? I... I think I could do that!

[ibedeadpeople]

It's really okay? --I mean, you don't have to do anything to get in trouble, I don't want you to get hurt! But just, if he asks to trade with you...think about it, alright? I know I should've said something a long time ago...

[court_chesster]

[looking SO DETERMINED!!]

I don't know if he'd ask me to trade, b-but... I'll think about it!

[ibedeadpeople]

...Thank you. I really appreciate it. You're a great guy, Simon!
