vibe in angry justice
who knows if i'll put something here by endgame
[ Wherever Lili is, Shinobu will also be. She's just like that. More like, Shinobu is checking everywhere because it's better to know than not.
She waves a bottle in greeting. It's full of ice and not water. ]
An-san. [ Sounds like anpan. ] How do you like this camp?

He had some previous transgressions to pay for.
[ As if Shinobu didn't try to knife him on the island before showing up on the bus. ]
Yes. As soon as the scrunchie left my hand, the bus moved in such a way that led to this.
[ Mysteriously. Magically. Whateverly. ]

That's what he said too, but he was pretty vague about why. I still need to ask him if he'll tell me more...
[she's so fucking nosey she's gonna get taken out quick]
That's horrible - have you gotten it checked? Is there any way to make it feel better?

If he doesn't want to tell you but says it's all right for me to tell you, I don't mind telling the story.
[ She'll doxx him with permission. He hasn't annoyed her enough yet that she'll doxx him without it. ]
It's broken. For the moment, icing it is the best for it. It should't take too long to heal.

I'll keep that in mind. Thank you.
[she's damn curious what went on with all of that drama, but she can understand respecting boundaries and permission]
Ah, okay. That's good - even though I'm mad that they made you suffer over such a stupid rule in the first place.

[ . . . right. well, shinobu told her this much so - ]
... not all of them are that firm, so far.
I told someone my power and team [because she's lili an, so why wouldn't she] and so far nothing's happened to me. But I'll let you know if I suffer a punishment.
When I spoke to a director about it, they said that secrecy is still something to keep in mind. But I personally think it's immoral and wrong in this case.

The rule doesn't say that there'd be a direct punishment about revealing your power or team. I hope nothing does happen, but that would be good to know, if something does. Thank you.
[ She smiles and nods. ]
I asked, too, and the one I asked said they'd advise against it since they don't know why we would, but there's nothing they can really do to stop us from sharing. I'm still not sure why we shouldn't. If this is supposed to be something enjoyable to pass the times, what harm will there be in sharing this information?

I thought the same thing.... which actually makes me wonder something - would you consider the power that you were given to be something that's meant to be offensive? Could you hurt someone with it?
[admittedly she knows that some powers could possibly be used in different ways for different reasons but,]
Something unmistakably hurtful...

[ . . . hm.]
Not inherently... but it could be. I've been asking others, and it seems like maybe half of us have non-offensive powers... even though they can be used creatively to possibly hurt another.
But in the setting I was in last, we were at least given a list of possible powers people could have, and what they were capable of. They varied from simply annoying to destructive.

I wonder, with all of us paranoid and distrusting of this place, where that creativity will lead?
[ It's both a real and rhetorical question. ]
Can I hear examples of the powers from your previous location? I'd like a better frame of reference even if the abilities given to us here are nothing like where you were.

Of course. We were given elemental powers along with more specific powers. For myself, I could wield ice and summon poison. Another could summon meteors out of the sky, another could make someone act stupidly. One allowed you to turn into mist and another allowed you to suppress someone's emotions.
[fun fact she hates all of these]
They're all rather horrid. None of them were ever truly useful.

They're useful for murder.
[ Haha. Yeah, they're horrible. Shinobu can see where that went. She doesn't hate the idea of all those powers, just the context of them. ]
But as much that can harm can also help. I can only hope if people use them, it's not for the obvious.

... I also hope for that.
[even if she struggles to entirely believe in it.]
However, in this situation when we're not expected to be doing anything but play idle games, and the directors were the ones who bestowed their powers upon us - why would they be dangerous at all?
That's what I wanted to discern.

It is - and it's why I've told them repeatedly that I'm not going to trust them until they prove that we're really here for... I don't know. Any decent reason?
[and it sure is hard to believe in that right now]
I'm giving them a week - but if they disappoint me, I'm not going to forget it.

I doubt they expected any good reason either. Didn't they say something about a portal malfunction?
[ Whatever that means.
Shinobu very much wants to be anywhere but here. ]
It's better to keep expectations low. I don't want to hate them, but if us being here is as out of their control as they want us to believe....
[ Well. You know. ]

[ . . . . yeah. she sighs and lets her shoulders droop]
... I told them as much. That if I end up disappointed after all their promises, I'm going to be even more furious. So until we find out what happens, I'm not going to believe in them or else I'll be all the more tempted to knock them out.
If they know everything about us and what we've been through, they should at least be more understanding about how unwilling we are.

[ She nods. ]
You would be right to be furious. [ Shinobu would be equally as furious. ] I'd hate for them to be more understanding only when we all have to experience all that murder again.
I'd hate it even more if they truly are trying to pull the wool over our eyes.
[ After all they've been through. ]
