Just checking. Ideally, it won't come down to that, anyway.
... In the hypothetical scenario where they're now one of yours and they kill Ruin this week, and we voted for you at trial, would you be offended with us?
I don't know how you ever got the impression that any of us want to lose our followers. Of course I'd be offended because I'd be getting punished for what they did, but I'd probably be a little relieved too if someone managed to kill Ruin and got caught.
[that being said-]
But, be honest, are you guys even going to bother trying to solve it if Ruin turns up dead? You know if she's gone that's one less god potentially being like, "Hey, I'll reward you for killing someone," right?
With all due respect, I recall someone out for Rachel Berry's blood not too long ago.
... If someone kills Ruin, there's a decent chance of it being whoever killed Fortune last week. Wanting to stop a serial killer who poses a threat to my preferred gods should be reason enough, right?
That's different. What's-his-name was someone people actually liked, and he was one of Cunning's followers. She put someone I care about in danger and totally ticked off the people who were close to him. Do you have any idea how hard it's going to be to recruit them to my team now?
[she grumbles a little there. ah well...]
Look, do you think I'm stupid? Of course we'll all be safer if whoever is running around killing gods gets stopped, but I'm not rewarding you for killing someone, especially not when I know you don't want me to win. And besides, if you just wanted the killer dead for everyone's safety, you'd be asking for Love's blessing, not mine.
Easy. I wasn't seriously thinking you would, but since I'm already talking to you, I thought I might as well ask. You're the one who asked why would I care if Ruin dies; I just answered your question. That's all my response was meant to be.
And you're still second place—your chances of winning are hardly low.
Can you really blame me? You've all been willing to believe the worst of me since the very first week. Trying to get me to give the okay on murder so you can go around to everyone like, "Oh, Ambition totally said she'd reward me for killing someone!" so all of my followers will join a god you like is exactly the sneaky sort of thing some of you would do.

Obviously I'd prefer it if people weren't free to run around killing gods, but I'm not going to reward you for going out and killing someone.

Anyway, I actually wanted to know what I'd have to do to get a hint on Fortune's killer—besides them probably having been with Ruin.

Well, thanks for your time regardless. That was all I wanted to ask.
