That would've made my role in all of this a lot easier if they'd been upfront about that from the start. [He rolls his eyes.] Now that we know twelve out of the thirteen, I'm thinking we might need a meeting just so everybody's on the same page. Get everyone caught up to speed on what needs to happen and make sure everyone knows who they might be able to work with or coordinate with. Maybe I'm crazy, I don't know.
[...Escha's name gets a soft, kind of bummed look though but.] ...she's still okay, right?
Yeah. In games like these trust is one of those really fleeting things. [Since she's doing that, he'll just play with the ends of her hair. It's fine.] But I'll take it. Shiraishi told me about a message he heard when he broke into a room with Hizamaru. "Mistrust and deceit are your enemy, you're running out of time, and we are thriving." Real cheerful.
[There's a shrug though.] Another party might be what we need, but just a little more lowkey. Or we feed everybody after the trial in the conference room that's set up and go from there. Gathering that many people myself might be a problem, so...I could use the help. Let's see how tomorrow goes.
[At least at the news about the dead he perks up a bit.] They're supposedly on an island and that's what we're circling around, so...I'd be having a good time if I was on the beach, too. I try to keep in touch with Carlos to check on stuff but...y'know. They're busy. She say anything important?

Don't blame them. You know they got roped into this same as the rest of us. Nathan seemed surprised trusting each other was even up for debate.
[She sips at her beer and leans to rest her head against his arm.]
Getting everyone on the same page. I like the sound of that. Need any help with that?
[And then she lets out a soft laugh.]
Escha's just fine. She looked good. Everyone else is okay, too. I get the impression the afterlife's treating them real well.
