[ robin is primarily someone who prefers to support more than someone who takes noticeable action, but she can and she will if she thinks become too dire (and when isn't it dire when you're from a video game or in a murder game). ]
I have a feeling there will be so much we'll have to try to understand. There isn't a pattern yet, but... if the afflicted will act up in some way, perhaps that's something we can look for, too, outside of seeing what the evidence tells us.
[ if murderers take mercy and the mods let them.... ]
We'll have to mitigate whatever damage we can. I don't want to tolerate how much blood only begets more blood here.
[ midtrial or post trial me if i'm a culprit please ]
It's just another reason we have to try and get to know everyone as well as we can, isn't it? Knowing what a person's really like...it'll be easier then to know if something changes about them and how to handle it when it happens. [they'll be able to go "oh you are so possessed, aren't you." a little faster. it's a faint hope, and it's not like she wants that to be the answer, but what else is there?]
I wonder if there really will be a pattern or if we're meant to guess so we have a harder time stopping this. [will that stop them? no. but just a thought. also ara i will absolutely midtrial you if you're a culprit.] It's an unfair system, isn't it? All we wanted was to stop the ritual and instead we have to take part in a different one just to save people. And for some of us...that may not even feel like we're saving them at all. All we can do is remember the right thing isn't always the easy one.
I haven't expected any fairness... only a fighting chance, but none of this is easy at all.
[ robin hesitates to say if there is even a right thing in whatever options they have the most. killing to save lives doesn't negate that they're still killing to her. it weighs on her, but she acknowledges necessity. ]
I don't want it to be pattern—or to view it as one. [ that's just her bleeding heart, though. she can come back to some pragmatism in a bit. ] But if there is some kind of way... or logic... to make it less drawn out, I'll take it.
[ whether it's hoping they can spot the possessed in a shot or otherwise. ]
It doesn't even feel like we get that very often. [which is just another thing that frustrates her. how are they supposed to fight back if the playing field is so uneven it may as well be a whole other game?]
...I don't like that this seems to be one. This is two weeks in a row now, and when I spoke to War they seemed to think the cult would continue summoning monsters. It means there's the chance of this happening more and more. But if it's a ritual they're using there must be a way to dismantle it. Even if it's just making one of the steps impossible for them. [whatever that might look like.] ...but I'm not sure what to look for yet.
...maybe we can try to think if there's anything the three of them had in common. Even a small connection might help us understand what would make them appealing to a monster. [and then work backwards to "perhaps this is why a certain monster was summoned, and if we remove what they want they can't anymore"]
