Yeah, I don't know too much about her...

[Getting back to work on creating fixtures for his sand house, he thinks.]

But she's always been pretty nice to me. She has a bright smile, and pats me on the head! I just think she's just an introvert, and she seems to get along better with boys than with other girls.

[selfimmolates]

[so you mean patience is a flirt,]

What do you think about her choosing not to participate?

[divus]

[I mean, maybe.]

I don't think it's that big of a deal. She doesn't really have a vision for the world like we do, so she doesn't want to be a leader. I don't think anyone should have to be a leader if they don't want...

[selfimmolates]

I suppose not. Though... why do you think they broke the tie the way they did?

[divus]

Um...

[Justice brings his hands up to his mouth as he thinks, swaying from one foot to another.]

I think she'd said something about...high rewards warranting high risk? That maybe people would take it as seriously as possible that way, instead of trying to take advantage? I don't think she anticipated that people would actually jump to killing just because it ended up being allowed...none of us did.

[selfimmolates]

[he pinches the bridge of his nose for a moment.]

Is that so...

[divus]

What's wrong?

[Justice can't help sounding confused--not expecting that kind of reaction out of him.]

[selfimmolates]

Oh, it's not your fault. I'm just reminded that yeah, we really jumped to killing right away.
