[ okay now i can come back to this. he doesn't like the way astolfo talks about himself, frowning, but he tables the thought.
instead, he's quiet a moment, idly fiddling with his hair as he thinks. they've talked through other achievements. they do this every week, and they do nonsense and it's working, but he doesn't think it's enough to keep looking away. it's not how they got through the reaper's game, and it's not how they'll get through this.
so eventually, quietly, ]
I want you all to keep trying those things. But I think I'm going to try and get rid of Ryo.
[ they should simply joy ride their way to victory... though in this case, it's not just about the achievements. ]
...I'm thinking of what Simon did. Killing his own teammate, even when Fukuzawa was his accomplice too.
[ a low anger, like it's had time to settle down, but it's still there. ]
So it makes more sense for one of us to do it. [ ... ] Besides, with Maya back, I don't want to take any chances. He doesn't care if he gets caught, so there's nothing stopping him from targeting her again anyway.
[ A low simmering anger over Simon. Over Ryo again. He has to take a breath, unsure which point to argue when his feelings about it are so scattered and directionless.
Wow, maybe he should just accept murder is the right direction and chill. ]
Fine. But like Astolfo said, you're not going to do it alone.

Sorry, Rinrin! I forget that people aren't used to it.
[ leaning into him a bit. ]
W took a car for a joyride in Wenis as well! [ if they want non-murdery options.
as for ryo they will give a nod. ] I do think that would be a good idea. He would probably like it better there anyways. [ also his murder paws ]

[ Bristles, but then... calms down. There's a deep frown on his face, and a sense of disapproval. ]
... Why does it have to be you? There's people who would get rid of him.
