Yeah, we saw them. [he's not thrilled either way.] Kairi said that she and someone else got a heads up that something big was going to happen Saturday. That was on Monday, before Iris even died. If the deaths weren't planned before that why would they get a warning?
[so. he has to wonder how tragic "management" truly finds these things. that's an interesting question though and he sort of mulls it over. it's not like possession is a new concept to him.]
...it's a possibility, sure. And if someone's possessed they might not be able to even tell us they're doing these things. But then we would have to figure out how to break the possession, wouldn't we?
[Ugh, that's a fair point. He nods, thinking it over as he explains his thought process.]
We're meant to be customers, but I haven't seen anyone from this place anywhere. [No shopkeepers, no cleaning staff, nothing.] If I understand the meaning of the phrase correctly, and your theory is correct, the station may be taking control of us in order to complete that task.
[Since it's not like trucks have hands for moida... but he sighs, because this is, of course, all totally guesswork. And Sora's right--even if it's a correct theory, what can they do about it?]
After last night, I suspect more of us might've begun searching for answers. [Because haha hoo boy being locked in and forced asleep was not fun.] We'll have to ask tomorrow, if we can.
[If it's not like. A surprise death match like Nuwa predicted and they aren't all busy trying to survive or something.]
It's possible. When Riku and I were in that office, there was a mug on this warmer thing sitting on the desk. Like someone had been there recently. I don't know if that means someone else really is here or if we're just supposed to think so.
[neither answer is great.]
Have you heard anything from anyone else yet? Kairi, Riku and I were going to try and get everyone together today to share information and stuff, but...that didn't happen. [hard to care as much at the moment when your best friend dies!]
[Well that's concerning. And it kind of points to the idea that their captors have been here all along, observing them--okay, no, now he's looping back around to the mass experiment theory. Not the time for that.
He shakes his head slightly, though.]
I spoke to Miss Nagiko earlier. She didn't say anything specific, only that she might have a some way to find a clue. [She didn't seem super confident about it, but he won't say that.] I haven't spoken much to anyone else.
[Or rather, most of the people he has spoken to are fucking dead or assholes, so.]
[now is not the time to loop back to that even if leo might be on to something. instead, there's a hum of understanding or acknowledgement from sora. ]
I think Kairi has something to help, too. [... ] If we are supposed to figure stuff out tomorrow, I know we should try to help everyone. But Kairi and I need to find out what happened to Riku. We need to know so we can bring him back.
[so. sorry everyone else. sora will be helpful to a point but he does have priorities.]
[Leo is absolutely rude enough to say "yeah I don't care about everyone else either", but he won't. It's not entirely true, anyway--he cares about Iris, and Hyth, and... honestly even the strangers, a little bit, insofar as it's likely their deaths will give them more answers overall.
But otherwise... well, look. Sometimes the pieces of the game fall a certain way. And Leo's always done what he wants, which isn't about to change now.]
No one will hold it against you. [He doesn't think anyone will try, but if they do, they'll have Leo to deal with.] Do what you need to do.
[leo...normally sora would encourage everyone to care about what's happening but. you know. there sure is something happening here that he can't exactly comprehend.]
Some people might. [he can definitely think of some people who might.] But I don't know if I care? ...thanks though. Really.

[Sora saw him beat up Sei for jumping on his head so like. Gestures. Sora is not the only feral person in this room right now.]

...follow our lead, but if you can help us look I would appreciate it. We have some ideas of what happened, but no way to prove it yet.
