[ i like how i was on the suspect list in a week i wasn't there, damn i could've played that up ]

It is what it is.

Unless we're spiralling and running out of time, you'll have nothing to hide. Ultimately, we're looking for answers and the truth, but there's a saying about the truth hurting.

[applebough]

[ you could have destroyed yuri more ]

The truth only hurts when we want to deny it.

[ She shakily breathes out. ]

... Is that from experience, Shu?

[roseoftexas]

[ luckily for everyone, i was absent last week lmao. yaywon yelling at me like aaa you weren't there. ]

A lot of people do, because of the whole confronting thing. [ he looks thoughtful. ] The truth is complicated sometimes. It's easier to focus on a lie sometimes, even if you know the truth is something different.

[applebough]

[ Yuri is quiet as she seems to contemplate on something. ]

How do you deal with it?

[roseoftexas]

[ ha. ]

Poorly, apparently.

[applebough]

Really? You seem like you have yourself handled all the time... I was wondering if that was from plenty of experience.

[ Shu? Freaking out? Hasn't crossed her mind apparently. ]

[roseoftexas]

That's maybe more of an attitude adjustment, but... a few years ago I didn't cope with something very well. Took me a while to realise I was wrong, but I lose a lot by admitting that.

[ he shrugs. ]

So I don't. Not yet at least.

[applebough]

Oh.

[ ... ]

Even so, you're very calm about admitting that already... I wish I could have that degree of control.

[roseoftexas]

[ he tilts his head. ]

It's not so hard to talk around things.

[applebough]

[ :pensive:

Yuri thinks that Shu tilting his head like that is a little cute. ]

As opposed to directly talking about things?

[roseoftexas]

[ shakes this kind of character i play around like a maraca

help ... his little head tilts. ]

Direct is fine sometimes. When there's no point in keeping it quiet.

[ violently shakes the type ]

... I suppose you are that sort of person, Shu.

[applebough]

[ She smiles a little, but the smile becomes a little strained. ]

... Is that why you just took your shirt off so casually in front of everyone?

[roseoftexas]

[ ? ]

We were getting down to the wire, and it was just easier.

[applebough]

[ aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Yuri just grows rabbit ears that droop over her face. Goodbye. ]

That's so... bold...

[roseoftexas]

[ ... hmmm.


tugs one of her ears down. ]

There were plenty of people stripping off.

[applebough]

[ WEH ]

Y-Yes, but...

[ she's going to die off schedule ]

[roseoftexas]

[ stop trying to die off schedule. ]

But?

I remember Owner giving everyone a full eyeful.

[applebough]

... I told him not to do that anymore.

[ It was a part of the reason, why Owner probably refused, but. Yeah. ]

So it's... different.

[roseoftexas]

...

I can't really say anything, because I'm not exactly eager about the whole strip check thing myself. But we probably need to make it easier to persuade the few people who won't when we need them too.

[ ... ] I guess he did when asked though. In the end.

[ none arm. ]

[applebough]

Oh, so... you did that to be an example?

[ Or something. Yuri was also shocked at what was under the blanket aside from the no arm thing. ]

[roseoftexas]

[ well. ]

No. It was just quicker, like I said.

[applebough]

[ ... ... ...

The rabbit ears droop further down over her face. The one that Shu is pulling is definitely way down. She can't tell him not to not take off his shirt in the future then?? ]

... Okay, then I'll just... not look.

[roseoftexas]

[ it is now a roulette if he will or he won’t. he stops tugging that ear and pats it instead. ]

You can look or not look, the context makes it pretty clinical either way. I’m not sure how accurate injury checking will be with medical pods available, especially if someone uses one during the night. But we did use that knowledge effectively last week.
