Do you really think Itachi-san would have 'fessed up if he wasn't caught? It's...unfair, sort of, but it also means we ultimately get to decide who to take out of the game and bench on the sidelines.

[...well.] I'm sorry I gave you a sort of complicated task. I didn't realize things would get that out of hand. But what would really help is trying to convince people to stay on this team, or join it if they aren't. Find where people are aligned and get their thoughts on their gods. I can't talk to everyone myself, but you may be able to help there.

I know, I know. But how else do you want me to say it? [Huff.]

...I can't. Not yet, anyway, but...I'm sure you've spoken to some of them already. You just have to get them to confirm it.

Okay, well, I don't want to be the one killing them so I'm not saying it. [Hmm...] And I don't think you have, no. It's still pretty early in the game but you're making progress and alliances.

Who's stood out to you?

...sort of. I can at least choose sometimes. [Sort of. It's complicated.] People are always going to have to die, Zoe-san. It's just that sometimes it doesn't have to be the person guilty.

Either or? I'd like to hear both.

I see. [No comment on that, but Love seems to take that into consideration.] It's still early, but judging by how the trial went that seems pretty accurate. I'd like to speak to some of them sometime just to get a better understanding of who they are.

...do you know who they might be aligned to?

[Hm.]

Okay, sooo...I know everyone's alignments. We all do. We were all present when you guys chose, but! I'll make you a deal. You find out their alignments and earn their trust, I can grant you a small favor.

Yeah. Let's start with them, and if you're feeling really ambitious you can do the rest for a bigger reward.

Do you trust them enough to do so?

I see. I think it's safer if you say that I'm asking you as a way to try and bring more people to our numbers. It can't hurt, right? It'll only make them think less of me and not you, and it's my competition. I bet some of the other gods are going to start doing the same thing.

Hm...if you think it's going that way? You could always convince them to come talk to me themselves to get a better idea. Then the ball's in their court.

I have. He's a brat. [But not negatively? That's actually sort of a compliment.] He's been grilling all of us which I'm going to guess he told you anyway. But...I think so, too.

I do, too. I worry a little because he's still young, but he seems more mature than some of the others...

A lot of you have been through a lot...but at the same time a lot of you haven't. That's what I worry about, too. I don't know how to make sure you guys are prepared for whatever happens next.
