You tell me. I'm kinda shaken up by having come under fire there for a while. Pretty sure some still will think I did that to someone.
[It's a wake-up call of some sort, truthfully. Sigrun isn't sure of what, but...it feels like realizing something she hadn't before. If only she could figure out what it is]
Can't blame ya for that, that kind of thing's always rough. I still feel bad about lettin' that spotlight land on Adlet for a while last week.
[ and now he feels guilty about adlet for a whole new reason!! man ]
...And yeah, when they never find out who really did it... lots of room for suspicions to take hold and grow. I know how that is.
[ ... ]
I know you can take care of yourself, but. Probably best to be extra careful for a while, y'know? And try to really let people see that you're honest and all that.
It's not like I can do more than what I have already done.
[She has no idea what she's supposed to do to make herself seems honest. Her behavior has been nothing but transparent -- and although she's really good at lying, it has never been for her own advantage, it has always been for someone else's or her crew's sake. Sigrun Eide is as straightforward as she can be.
So she's at a loss of what she even is supposed to do]
But if anything happens I'm not gonna go overboard. Don't worry, no one's getting hurt if they get so suspicious they try to do anything.
[.......]
...I do worry about it, though. Green girl from my team-- [Jolyne] --came to me to ask to my face if I had done it. [And as she sees it, if one of her cherished crewmates doubted enough to need to ask, who knows what those who aren't as close-knit to Sigrun will think. True, Jolyne said she hadn't voted for Sigrun...but still...]
Oof. Can't say I didn't consider it for a minute, between the bow and those clothes... but that's also why I didn't wanna rule out someone smaller wearin' clothes that were a little too big for them. There's a bunch of us up there at the tall end of the spectrum, so it'd be easy for someone a little shorter to get attention off themselves by makin' everyone focus on all of us.
[ sighs ]
Good that she came and talked to ya instead of just letting it fester. Wouldn't expect less from her, though. Not sure I can say the same for everyone.
Think that's what happened? Because I can't lie, if anyone from that suspect list had been... [If any of them had been the culprit there's a significantly nonzero chance Sigrun would have taken advantage of the suspicion on her to draw the votes.
.......]
As captain, my role and duty is to aid in the survival of my crewmates. I'm in no hurry to die and I don't want that at all, but the more happens the more I wonder if at some point I'll have to take the leap and do something so someone else lives.
[Whether it's for someone else in Crimson Phoenix, or for a friend]
I dunno. Everything's still just theories, and pretty vague ones at that.
[ and he's in no hurry to point fingers based on flimsy evidence when they're already sending one innocent person to their death. ]
...Yeah, I feel that. I'm no captain, but I've got a responsibility to my team and my other comrades here. I've got every intention of gettin' myself home in one piece, but I have that same goal for all of them too.
Axel told me there's this guy in white that's probably the one causing it all. As soon as the chance appears I'm gonna go straight to him and face him.
[Probably not by herself, but yeah, point is, Sigrun is already itching to confront that potential mastermind and get this all to have a positive ending, if she has a say in it]
Yeah... showed up around the time the moon supposedly fell, from what I hear.
[ "supposedly" because the moon is still?? up there???? ]
Goldie said the guy showed up out of nowhere, killed those four other heroes when they went after him, then disappeared again... though that news clipping one of the groups came back with the other day kinda makes it sound a little different.
None of 'em have any idea who or where he is, in any case, so finding that chance is probably gonna be a challenge... not that most of us would back down from one.
[She raises her hands, positioning them in front of her like she intends to grab something and push it away from her with all her strength, she indicating he should place his hands there and brace himself, be as immovable as he can]
It's either this or punching, and I don't want to punch you.
[And there's more than enough location destruction going on tonight for her to add more to the pile, hah]

[Looks like just talking of him is getting Sigrun fired up. Maybe because it's a distraction. She just shouts that, and sighs.
.....
You know what, touch week. Sigrun puts her hands up]
Apples, grab my hands and brace yourself. I need an outlet for the frustration!
[And just a very brief bout of physical activity combined with the need for touch maybe will get that done]
