WE ALL SEEK JUSTICE AND NOBODY IS OKAY

[tenrules]

[Another murder, another investigation, another trial, another execution. Unlike last time, it wasn't self-defense, and although they caught him, she's pretty sure nobody is happy. It was sentencing someone to death, after all.

Knowing that, Dlanor writes something on the back of profiles she took from the bulletin board, passing them under the doors. When in a hurry, use what you have, and those profiles will be back sooner or later, anyway]

Please come to the train station. Let's spend some time in each other's company, for our sake

[If you decide to come, you'll find whoever wrote that note has been working hard to make things somewhat nice. There's a few...whatever we all have been using as cups all this time...filled with milk -- evaporated milk with some water, it seems. Tastes almost like normal milk. Dlanor also brought a few twigs and a small piece of log from the sawmull, and seems to be currently trying to make a fire. Some warmth should be nice, right?

Come on, everyone, let's sit around this bunch of wood and strengthten our bonds]

You know, I only caught part of that while it was happening...he said Peter Venkman was his name, right?

[junosteel]

I think we can assume that, yeah.

[Technically he didn't exactly...answer the Narrator as so much shout out the name.]

And he's a doctor of some sort. Dunno what, but what would a doctor be doing out here?

[pegathesis]

I couldn't tell you. Maybe he was a doctor before he died...? But he claims to be the Mayor, unless that's just something he made up once he became all...ghosty.

[Guy doesn't seem to be all there.]

[junosteel]

It could be that he forgot who he was and just...took on that persona. I was talking to--

[He stops. He told Sol he wouldn't say anything. And after that whole ordeal with John...]

--Someone said that ghosts can sometimes forget who they were in their past life.

[pegathesis]

Really? Well...that would make a whole lot more sense, then.

[She frowns down at her hooves.]

I have no reason to be inclined to feel sorry for the Mayor, but...it would be bad to find out that he never really intended to do this to any of us in the first place.

[junosteel]

Well, clearly, something is manipulating him in some way.

[He shrugs.]

Even if he never meant it, he's still responsible for the death of four people. We can't forget that.

[pegathesis]

Oh no, I absolutely agree. I just hope that if some sense ever does get knocked into him, he'll realize how horrible all of this is.

[junosteel]

Hopefully, we'll be the ones knocking the sense into him.

[mae would probably get dibs]

[pegathesis]

[Mae gets dibs with all the sense knocking, that's for sure.]

Maybe if we're lucky something else will happen to give us more insight into what's up with him. It didn't take much for Mae to set him off, did it?

[junosteel]

I'm all for pissing him off again, to be honest. Just not entirely sure if that's safe, given our situation.

[For all they know, the next time they try something like that, he'll start running at them with a chainsaw or something.]

[pegathesis]

[Yeaah...and unfortunately, the Mayor has nothing to lose. They're a lot more vulnerable and squishy in comparison at the moment.]

I'm sure we can figure out some better way. He can get to us easily in that trial room, but not so much when we're spread out all over town. Never mind the fact that us murdering each other is rendered pointless if he goes around doing it for us.

[junosteel]

He did threaten mass execution at one point. I don't doubt that he'd be able to pull that off. [He scratches his chin, thinking.]

So, what you're saying is that completely isolating ourselves is the solution? I can get behind that.

[pegathesis]

Not entirely... [Twilight gives Juno a wry smile.] I think we'll all start going mad if we're alone for too long.
