don't wait for a knight in shinin' armor, your savior's reflected in the mirror

[That sure was a fucking thing. That execution was a fucking thing. Those secrets are a fucking thing.

Cabanela retreats to his room, but not for all that long. Everyone will get a note eventually, written in very neat handwriting

I do not plan on bowing down to threats and intimidation. If you did not act, it means you were, like me, aware of the risk, but decided against it. Your reasons are entirely your own.

Join me in the dining room if you agree enough is enough, and that you won't acquiesce to threats. I don't plan to let this stop me, and neither should you.

In the dining room itself, Cabanela has set up coffee and tea for those who want it-- there's no food, because to be honest, he doesn't know how to cook. Two more candles have been lit-- he wasn't really sure what to do about the whole... parasite thing... so Fern's candle will have to make due.]

Exactly. I don't believe you would murder a guy for, like, no reason. I believe it happened and stuff, but there's a bunch of things on here I'm pretty sure are, like, worded carefully so they're super bad sounding.

...I'm sure that's true for most of these. There's no room for nuance in these secrets, they way they're worded.

It's 'cause Maraschino Jerry is one of those, like, real annoying Lawyer-y types? He's all about the straight meaning rather than, like, nuance. That's why I asked you the other week about the rules.

I'm certain it was him who must have put those secrets on the wall.

He does seem to be the type.

Oh, definitely. I dunno, but I get this vibe from Laney, like. Yeah? She's here and she's doing this for whatever reasons but, like, if she could be doing anything else she would be. Jar-Jar is the complete opposite. He's really, like, into this.

...It is on her profile, isn't it? "Dislikes murder."
