foxicide | fei du

[he slants fei du a look, thinks about how strangely funny it is that they're here now, when just last week they were watching Guifei and Lambda,]

I'm hoping to see how it ends with my own hands, of course.

[ this is about the answer he's expecting - though, when rang looks at him, fei du's looking back, expression inscrutable. ]

With who?

[at that, he winks. horrid.]

Wouldn't you like to know?

[a beat, then]

Though I suppose you might, if you decide to volunteer.

[ hateful ]

If I did, would you accept it? [ fei du hums a little, that same inscrutable look on his face a moment longer before he looks away; there's a twitch that might be a smile. ] One last hoorah, before you're sent off.

[ ... one less pain to be felt by his teammates. ]

[at that he laughs, abrupt and loud]

I'm tempted to, just to see the look on your partner's face.

[not ylfa, or maybe ylfa as well?]

But who knows? A lot of people are upset over Rin. There's a wealth of options to choose from.

Wenzhou likely wouldn't be able to handle it.

[ just going to be real there but anyway. ]

... And your teammates?

[NOT OUR WENZHOUUUUU

rang dips his head a little in acknowledgement of the statement, because he is NOT blind he can SEE the gays, then he raises an eyebrow]

...What about them?

Are you expecting one of them to do the job?

[at that, he laughs]

Maybe. Buzen did tell me from the beginning -- that if I killed, then he'd break himself.

Imagine having to sit through that tomorrow. Showing up for one execution, and just getting two.

I can't say I'd be that surprised.

[ considering what kind of person buzen seems to be. or. sword. ]

Did you expect them to cover for you?

Hm. Let's flip that around.

[with a hint of challenge,]

If you were the one who erased, would you expect your teammates to cover for you?

No.

[ that answer comes fairly quickly and confidently. ] In fact, I'd prefer if they didn't know at all.

[he clicks his tongue,]

You're terrible. [HE SAYS. LIKE HE'S IN THE RIGHT] Then again, I expect you'd try your best not to get caught. So it's not hurting them really, if they never get to know.

[ i love you rang

that gets fei du to smile, and he shakes his head, amused. ]

I am. [ terrible, yea ] Did you have any intentions at all of hiding it?

[stop don't love him he's stinky]

I definitely wasn't planning on helping. But I thought it'd be pretty obvious, like the hallucinations we were having, and our psychs.

Hallucinations are played off easily, really. Enough to shift the blame. There wasn't much physical evidence, so we were left with the circumstantial, and with a lack of full understanding of our psychs, we're left to guess and extrapolate. It's a bit frustrating.

[ ... ]

I thought it was interesting that the entire case was completely bloodless.

[rang figures that's true enough, considering he had the benefit of previous knowledge beforehand when seeing the case. he's still ornery though because he's annoying,]

Eating him would have been too obvious a hint.

[ thats okay he's allowed to be ornery.

also help. he snorts, a little, at that. god. ] You know, when I woke up nauseous the morning of the trial, to a completely bloodless murder, my first thought was that someone might try and frame me. Less so when I spoke with Kyoko and Wenzhou, but still. Wouldn't that have been exciting?

[hmmm....]

It's not a bad idea. [he looks down at fei du's... (nu voice) feet] And you're around the same size too.

Maybe if we had a little more time. Though I don't know how it would have worked out, once you started healing people.

I think I might have outfoxed you, darling.

[ heh.

the joke's a little dry, as he turns to look at rang again. ] But I'd appreciate a go around with you any day.

[he gives fei du a Look at the pun... wow..... time to commit a MURDER, then he scoffs]

You just might.

Guifei died willingly enough, but there's nothing in the rules saying the murderer can't fight back. And considering the options... I think I'd stand a very good chance against Haru.

[ there's no real reaction, short of an eyebrow raise. ]

I guess so. Seems predictable of you.

Well, according to the rest of you, that's all I've ever been.

Is that what you want to be?

I can't control what you all think.

[rang like i do not control the die

the die as in object,]

But it's true that I haven't found much here to try and be anything else.
