Afterparty 5.0

[forcegalactic]

[There's not much that can be believed about that trial. Or that execution. Still, like before, two hours after everyone leaves, they'll find a note slipped underneath their doors.]

We have to stick together. The dining room is there for anyone that needs a quiet space, and I cooked dinner.

Hibiki made some coffee and dessert for all of us.

-Mordecai Benmont Jiminy and Hibiki Ganaha

[Today's selection includes potato pancakes and a light coffee cake. Hibiki has lit two more candles in the dining hall. It doesn't take long before Mordecai lights a third.]

Nah, whenever he doesn't want to say something, he just doesn't say it. I guess you could still say he's lying by that definition? But I don't think he lies in the straightforward way.

[ he can't believe he's saying this but HE'S PRETTY SURE HE HAS THIS RIGHT... What did he draw that dick pic and send a bunch of other embarrassing letters for if not to get a character assessment, god knows (God knows?) he is barely being productive otherwise. ]

... That's not that unbelievable, except the time and space part.

[Logan tips his head a bit as he considers that.]

All of it is incredibly difficult to imagine, but as being here has proved, all of our worlds are vastly different. Who is to say that he is not from a world where something like this is possible? Perhaps we're still looking at it in terms of our worlds and not his; maybe our concern should not be how this happened, but why.

[ Youko boggles at Bakugou's nonchalance, but then Logan says his piece and... well. He's probably right. ]

...Since he's referred to this as an experiment before, I asked him if he really wanted to just observe - or if there was something he wanted to prove, either to himself or others.

He said... [ Wording, wording, what was it... ] It was mostly the former, but the latter did "factor in". That it was a bit of both.

-Oh, and that the group was already providing the results he'd wondered about? I asked him what those were in case he'd actually answer if I asked, but he didn't.

See, that's what I mean. When he doesn't want to reveal the truth, he just doesn't say anything, it's different from straightforward lying.

[ It's weird, in Bakugou's opinion, because the Conductor doesn't even have to talk to them at all... ]

Anyway.... he did tell me this is related to some kinda project he was working on, so that all lines up.
