[vigilantics]

[ so, after investigation stephanie will try to track varian down to see how he's doing. she does not know that he found fingers yet, but she's pretty protective of the kid at this point so of course she will want to check in on him. ]

So... Fridays.

[vigilantics]

...

We never did solve that mystery.

[alchemenace]

... Yeah, I. I guess not.

[ ha ha anyway!! ]

Stephie. What's your objective?

[ since they talked a lot about actually... doing those ]

[vigilantics]

[ there's a long pause before she answers. ]

It's not a good one.

[alchemenace]

... How bad is it?

[vigilantics]

There is a high chance that someone might end up dead if I do it?

[ so. bad. ]

[alchemenace]

Ha. Heh. Well. That makes two of us?

[ surprise! ]

[vigilantics]

[ she actually starts laughing. ]

I! Hate this!

[alchemenace]

[ well this isn't fun laughter. ]

I know. I... I believe that's why I received the letter. Which means you might get it sometime too?

[vigilantics]

Maybe...

I have to make someone vulnerable on murder night, so that potential killers would be likely to go after them.

[alchemenace]

... [ hm ]

There's, there's ways around that. If you are, or if someone tells you they are a Blotter, that doesn't mean who you make vulnerable has to die? But.

[ but that's a big if and someone still dies in that scenario. wow let's move on from that. ]

Um. From my experience, objectives and titles are linked. But it's... [ he learned half these fairytales last week this is 2hard ]

[vigilantics]

[ there's another pause before she sighs. ]

I'm the Bear.

[alchemenace]

A... "singular bear"?

[ oh my god. uh. uno bear jokes aside-- twice is pattern, so. ]

Then that confirms it. The more objectionable objectives aren't confined to just one side. Which means there's still a high chance one third or more of us have more difficult objectives to achieve, explaining the need for people like the Historians in the first place.

[vigilantics]

I had no plans to even look at my objective until the whole that whole reveal about them being important happened.

... I can get the mirror fixed. I need to get it back from your partner.

[alchemenace]

You can? How?

[ if the bear's gift is fixing things he's going to go ??? forever ]

-- I can ask Fane. I doubt he'll object either way, but.

[vigilantics]

Dragon. She said she can fix it from afar, but it wouldn't be a complete fix and we won't know if it works properly. If I bring her the actual mirror though then it can be restored fully.

[alchemenace]

And if you fix it... Maybe you could change your title and thus, your objective? Is that what you're thinking?

[vigilantics]

That or give it to someone who has one worse than mine. Either way, I think it's too valuable to keep broken considering how important objectives seem to be.

[alchemenace]

You'd still have to know a title's objective before switching, but you're right. I'm... Actually, it makes sense Dragon would be the one to repair it.

[ since the whole fulfilling objective thing is ... her preference ]

[vigilantics]

[ there's a pause. ]

What's your objective?

[alchemenace]

[ uh ]

Uh.

[ ... he looks away ]

I... have to set someone on fire.

[vigilantics]

...

Uh. How much. Fire?

[alchemenace]

Oh, um, I asked. It's horribly disfigure at minimum for the living. ... And it can't be myself. [ look. ] Or I could burn a corpse.

[ which would go over great. ]

[vigilantics]

Mine can't be myself either.

[ it's good to know that both of them immediately went WHAT IF I FUCK MYSELF UP INSTEAD. ]

But those options are... hm.

[alchemenace]

Not great? Yeah, that's what I thought too.

[ it's bad. ]

[vigilantics]

I guess we can try to... figure something out...

[ she doesn't sound too sure. ]
