No. I believe we're going to get out of here and no one's going to die, but I also believe adding something that could be a risk isn't smart when we don't know what could come from it. Both of those things can be true, can't they?

[halved]

[...

with the look of someone who totally expects something to go catastrophically wrong at any second:]

Sure.

[no optimism in this house!!]

What other risks do you think there are, besides dying?

[residentflorist]

[she is so deeply concerned about asa's life and what might have happened to her.]

...depends. You mean a risk for finding your partner? Or for being here at all?

[halved]

[she is unfortunately a protagonist in chainsaw man]

... Partner, I guess. Everything about this town is risky.

[residentflorist]

It would depend on the power and how it was boosted, I think. [she like. isn't super thrilled with this possibility and seems hesitant to even suggest she's thinking about it, but...] If there's something so powerful that it could change how a person thinks or feels...there could be a risk of a partner finding their match and then not caring at all what happens to them so long as they get what they want out of it.

[it is entirely possible someone could get their boost and make their wish and then still do something risky to take them both out or even get corrupted enough and take out their partner themselves. there are all sorts of fucky possibilities here.]

[halved]

[she raises her eyebrows.]

You think there's a power strong enough to consume someone like that? I thought our wishes would only come true if we survived, though...

[residentflorist]

Maybe. We're really only going to know our own powers unless people feel like sharing later. Who knows what the balance is. [but she shakes her head.] That might be something we need to ask them though. About the wishes.

[halved]

... Well, I already planned to ask about the monsters. So I'll have to remember to ask about the wishes while we're on the subject.

[residentflorist]

It can't hurt. Maybe you'll get a different answer depending on who you ask. It could be smart to compare with each other later.

[halved]

Right. Then... I'm going to talk to War. If you have that conversation with one of the others, will you tell me about it?

[residentflorist]

Yeah, of course. I did mean it when I said it would help to compare. I don't think any of us have anything to hide from each other when it comes to what we can learn.

[halved]

... Alright. Let's compare notes later, in that case.
