...Then we need to figure out exactly which parts are from which experiences. That will make it easier to prepare for whatever else they're going to throw at us.
Beau did, yeah. Though I don't know that that list has specific experiences on them. We have a lot of things in common already-- scheduling wise, it sounds like everyone experienced those trials on the weekends, some kind of curfew forcing everyone asleep the night a murder would happen, etc.
Some things are obvious, yeah. But it might help to look at how things were different too, to see if it gives us any hints on what's going on in this place.
No, I agree. That's why I was asking about people's experiences back on that bus. We're going to need to go over with every group exactly how things worked if it looks like everything we've been through has followed us here, though.
We were disoriented and crowded on that thing. Now that we're here to see those similarities, it might be worth giving it another shot, to see if we can get more accurate answers.
[ he's shoved his hands in his pockets, so it's hard to tell that they're balled up into fists. ]
Me either. And believe me, I'm not. I've tried to-- to make plans and gather information, but until the other shoe drops... we're stuck in this, this limbo, just waiting for someone to lose their life. After everything we've just been through.
[ he still can't fucking help people probably! so that sucks! ]
[ kara doesn't need to see his hands to realize what that reaction means. this one - he's trying to help in what ways he can. they're all very limited right now, but this is better than waiting around and doing nothing.
ookurikara can work with this, he thinks. ]
If there is something I can do to stop someone else from being killed, I'll do it. If that fails, we'll just have to do whatever we can to find the ones responsible when the trials come. It sounds like your ability will be of good use for that.
If I use it right. [ it's muttered, but dick shakes his head. sometimes you spend six weeks feeling worthless and it sticks around. ] Whatever happens, I'm not interested in lettings things go the way they did when we were on that ship. I'm willing to do whatever it takes for that.
Once we know it's safe to share, I'll tell you more about my power. I don't know if sharing factions is safe yet, though... but I don't really care about what they've assigned me to, anyway.
I've shared both. But others have shared just their power with me, or their faction. So one way or another, we should know if anything will come from that soon.
I don't like it, either. [ kara shifts and rests a hand on his sword. ] The least we can do in the meantime is figure out what sort of magic is available to us, and what's similar from other experiences. It might give us a hint of what else to expect, at least.
Right. [ there's a tilt of his head as he considers ] I'll start by asking Stephanie what sort of powers they had in the castle. She's mentioned a few already-- including being able to create fake evidence and being able to analyze a piece of evidence-- but getting a full list might give us a potential idea of what we might be able to expect. And any other group that might've add abilities as well, obviously.

Someone made a list, right? We can use that.

[ he straightens, enough to properly meet dick's eyes. kara is a little shorter but it's fine, he has the presence of a taller person maybe. ]
You'll help me, then?
