... People were talking about being affected with something. While I understand it's to the point of having the urge to murder someone, what... what are you talking about, Gregor?
What happens to them? What did the HER-MES message mean about "tying is the best solution"? Do we really have to off everyone that actually gets affected? Why?
It's not-- for sure. But we know what happened when they tied, right? Both of 'em died. Then we got that message. So we're just--
If we leave someone who was... pushed to kill, however you want to say it, we don't know what happens. We're risking them being forced to kill again, and we know they're still struggling with themselves after we find them out.
[unsurprisingly, this sits badly with gregor in particular...]
...yeah. But if there's anything that we can do for her, I don't know it, Yuri.
[the look he gives her there is-- apologetic. sad.
he doesn't want to see her die either, he's hoping someone finds something out, but what else do they do? leave her to kill again? on a ship that disables everything that should stop that from happening?]
... I'll go talk to her. I'll wait in the medbay for her to wake up. If she's still angry at me, then that's fine. I have to let her know about her options.
[ ... ]
... As long as she's allowed to have them, at least.
She wasn't a fan of all the tension and drama at the last minute. ...or Bradley getting voted for when he wanted to live.
[they don't see eye to eye on Why they're frustrated, exactly, because gregor still wanted rosamund to have her say if both were afflicted... but he can agree with her on a lot of it. it didn't have to be like that.]
I usually expect things to get out of hand when the trial is about to be over. It keeps happening... But this one truly was... out there, more than usual. I hope Rodya will feel better soon.
[ ... ]
Also, thank you, Gregor. I saw how you tried to divide the people from me when I told Rosamund.
the thought of cutting down yuri. the thought of someone else doing it, of watching her die. she's asking about his and rodya's promise but all he can think about is--]
...well, usually it's unintentional, but we've killed each other before. In a case like this, I could do it for her. We-- agreed we don't want to live with it.
[ Otherwise she will lose both of them and she doesn't want that. Preferably, she wouldn't want it to happen in the first place. But sometimes the world is a bitch. ]

[of course he would.]

... that she should do whatever she wants without anyone stopping her.

How was Rodya doing? ... I heard her tone change in the trial, so it must have been really serious.
no subject
[he exhales a sigh, there, smoke going with it.]
Took her to the sim rooms, worked some of that out with her-- I won't say that I didn't need it too.
no subject
[ It seems like there are so many different reasons as to why everyone is frustrated or sad about this trial to her. ]

[he was ready to run interference for rodya to do a little violence, before, so.]

I see. I...
[ They're used to it. They must have watched each other die so many times. ]
... alright. If that happens, I'll do my best to not let anyone interfere.
no subject
I'm- hoping it doesn't come to that. But if it starts looking like it's Rodya, or me, we'll take care of it.
no subject
... If that happens during trial, I hope that whoever does the killing won't get voted for.
