week 6 | saturday, post-trial
[When Sanji enters Eichi's room, Eichi isn't inside yet -- but that's only because the chef is carrying him, having fetched the teen from the dungeons at Akechi's request.
To be honest, he feels a little guilty ripping the two apart when deep down, he knows the sentiment, knows that if not for Zelos shooing him off, he would have spent every hour until noon at the other's side.
... But they have to keep their heads up, don't they? The war isn't over yet.]
You gotta rest, alright? If you wake up early enough, you can get back to the dungeons.

Of course, from the way I acted, everyone still wants me dead. I'm familiar with receiving that sort of attention, as well.
[He says it so casually, though, it's like he has no problem with it at all? He's busy, anyway, making sure Sanji stays tucked in, and that he RESTS.]

Another sigh of a laugh. He stares at the ceiling.]
If anyone tries, I'll kick their ass.

What happened to Varian wasn't great, but he made his choices, same as everyone else.
[Sanji loves his kids but he won't make excuses for their shit, either.]

[He doesn't say anything to the first comment. To be honest, he thinks he can be prepared to die by now, for the sake of this "game," but now he's worried about Sanji and Akechi outliving him. If that happens... will they be okay? He doesn't want to have to find out. He doesn't want to tease it or bring it up, so he doesn't talk about how he thinks it's very likely he'll be the next target in any more seriousness.]
I'm aware that I was being nasty, but Varian-kun's own personality showed itself at the end, as well, didn't it? He outed Goro, who had nothing to do with it. Who only wanted to protect him. Goro trusted me, thinking that I wouldn't say a thing...
It was me who did something so terrible, and it was Varian-kun who fed into it, so I don't understand how things ended up this way. How...Zelos-kun got any votes at all.
However... if what's being said is true, then they can all be saved. Though I never was one to believe in things like fairy tales and happy endings, it's all we have. Either we focus on the horrible things that continue to happen, or we set that aside and lift our chins, hiding our fears and exuding unrivaled strength, all to carry ourselves to a goal that may fix things.
I believe in that.

[Closing his eyes. There's no point in denying what Sanji sees as the truth.]
And most people here don't like him. He's mouthy and says what he wants -- shit people don't like to hear. Doesn't matter that he's usually right. It's easy to band together against someone that everyone views as a threat.
[And they were wrong -- dead wrong -- and the price they pay is losing a Villain who was actually pulling his weight, completing objectives. Ironic.]
Heh, but you're right. Don't know if the rest of the shitheads here will follow that example but... if there was ever a time to put aside petty grievances, it's right now.
We got a responsibility to bring them back.

[He was a fool, too, for taking so long to notice.]
I'd like to believe that the chosen Blotters will make the correct choices. However... trial is what I'm concerned for. It's not so important to solve the deaths, is it? It only leads to hate, to pain.
We should carefully select those we know as heroes and civilians, until we're left with three each.
