They're not more than that. [ they're. not answering the first question?? ] It's a congratulatory gift on first place. It's... meant to be cosmetic.

[lionson]

And yet I get the feeling it's a bad thing. Who gave it to me?

[retellers]

It's a bad thing because it's stupid.

[

it turns out wolf is just embarrassed their entire team is getting children's accessories ]

[lionson]

[WOLF PLZ]

You gotta stop scaring me, I thought you were gonna say it was a cursed item or something!

[retellers]

If I say it is, will you stop wearing it?

[lionson]

Okay, full disclosure here: I was kinda expecting the reason for all this killing nonsense to be "one of the Leaders is telling people to kill", so I'm already on edge here. So please don't.

[Shiro, noted conspiracy theorist.]

[retellers]

[ there's a pause ]

That might be true for some of them.

[lionson]

For some of the leaders? As in, more than one might be telling their people to kill?

[retellers]

For some of the deaths. [ they put a hand to their forehead ] Sorry.

[ they don't mean to aggravate your conspiracies shiro ]

[lionson]

...

Why? Why are any of you telling us to kill? Is it- is it part of this nova-gathering or something? Because there's gotta be a reason for it, yeah?

[PLEASE. HELP HIM UNDERSTAND.]

[retellers]

I don't know, but it's what the kid implied that first week. Someone asked him to kill. If it's true for the other deaths last week, I don't know any more than you do. Don't even know if it really was his Leader, but it's what makes the most sense.

[lionson]

But it wasn't you for sure, yeah? You didn't ask anyone to kill?

[retellers]

I can't confirm whether Virid was on our team or not, but I haven't asked anyone to kill. [ they seem to think about it ] Didn't mean to confuse you there.

[lionson]

[He just. lets out a HUGE SIGH. Mostly because he was asking about the latter, and hearing that Wolf's not doing that is a relief.]

Yeah, it's fine, don't confirm nobody's team. As long as you're not the Murder Leader, I think I can deal with all of this.

[retellers]

It's fine if it's another one?

[lionson]

It's not fine, no. But you're my friend, and I'd be really upset if you had been manipulating me all along.

[retellers]

[ uh ]

I am?

[lionson]

Sure. I'd say we get along pretty well, even if you're still pretty firm on the 'tsun' part of 'tsundere'.

[He's fluent in tsun, it's okay.]

[retellers]

Quit calling me that.

[ >:| ]

[lionson]

Sorry, no can do. We're friends now, so I'm gonna call you my friend.

[He will stop calling Wolf a tsundere though. For today.]

[retellers]

Feels like that something that should be a mutual thing.

[ so dry ]

[lionson]

Whaaat? Are you saying you don't like our little chats?

[retellers]

I never like chats.

[lionson]

Yeah? What do you like instead?

[retellers]

If I say nothing, do I get out of the friend thing?
