They mean well, but I don't think they quite understand this competition is... hard on everyone's trust. Or that blind faith can be even worse than arbitrary skepticism.
[ also people maybe have listening issues. ]
As far as you can tell... are Disorder and Cunning both safe for the next week?
...Cunning is probably safe because it looks like he's going to lose a follower tomorrow. I don't think... anyone is going to leave him, knowing what's happened to every god who's hit zero so far.
Then... Would you mind if I switched to Love? She's lost one follower, and I know two more are being forced to switch.
[ which leaves uno, who could also easily switch. ]
And Sieg... doesn't care about the game very much, he just wants to stay with her. If he won't join us... then at least he won't join anyone else, either.
You heard them at the trial even after everything with that glass, didn't you? "One of her followers definitely did the other murder," and all that. I mean, I don't get why they just accepted it as me being innocent when he said it, but not this week, but... [She makes an aggravated noise in the back of her throat.] The point is, now is really not a good time to be one of mine.
[...]
Maybe I should talk to some of the others... see if I can get them to go temporarily and come back to me in a week.
I'm pretty sure we don't have to worry about any of the participants killing me now that the doctor and the robot are gone, but sure. I'll be careful. [...] I'll just have to warn the ones who stay that the drop is intentional.

I think Disorder is probably safe, too.

She and I don't get along.

Of course I am. But why is it such a big deal if I switch to someone she doesn't like?
[ are gods... that pett- no, he knows the answer to that, doesn't he. ]
... What's the worst thing she could curse me with?
no subject
...I don't know what the worst thing she'd do is. But whatever it is, it'd only last until the end of the week.
[She pauses.]
It's... not entirely a bad idea. They're looking for people who are working with me, you know. Love's team is the last place they'd think to look.

[ is he being too dismissive of this? probably. ]
... What? Why are people targeting you? You haven't done anything wrong.

[so they're good there.]

That's smart, but please be careful? I don't think any of us want you to leave yourself vulnerable.
