Pretty sure I elbowed one or two of them in the nose. I, uh, heard a crunch.

[oops.]

Great.

[ proud of you, Will ]

But that's it, huh...
stunwhistle: (065)

[personal profile] stunwhistle 2023-09-24 10:08 pm (UTC)(link)
...yeah. We didn't succeed in getting her out of here.

[softly - ]

Sorry, Hanako.
hanaban: (255)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-09-24 11:48 pm (UTC)(link)
What for?

[ He doesn't want that sorry, doesn't know what to do with it ]
stunwhistle: (093)

[personal profile] stunwhistle 2023-09-24 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
...that we weren't able to do more.

[ he opens his mouth to say "you did enough" but it wasn't enough, not even close ]

...if you feel that bad about it, take that regret and pay it forward.

[ do better next time. Make the system feel the same regret they're all feeling ]

[personal profile] stunwhistle 2023-09-25 12:51 am (UTC)(link)
[he nods.]

That's the plan.

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-09-25 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
You have someone in mind already?

[ who are we killing first? we can make a hit list, with the mayor on top ]
stunwhistle: (053)

[personal profile] stunwhistle 2023-09-25 12:56 am (UTC)(link)
[his gaze flicks briefly to the cops guarding the jail cells.]

...nothing concrete yet. But I'm considering options.
hanaban: (239)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-09-25 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
[ also glances over at the cops and back. yes, okay, he gets the signal ]

I can take care of them.
stunwhistle: (031)

[personal profile] stunwhistle 2023-09-25 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, uh - no, I just meant we probably shouldn't talk about it in front of them.

...I should be out tomorrow. I think. As long as I don't cause any more trouble.
hanaban: (049)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-09-25 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
It's fine if they overhear. They won't stop me.

[ he's got a knife. they don't stand a chance ]
stunwhistle: (007)

[personal profile] stunwhistle 2023-09-25 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
[how is he supposed to hold the child leash from in here help]

...these guys are low on the ladder, that's why they're guarding us. It wouldn't really accomplish much.
hanaban: (177)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-09-25 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
[ Will should never have gone to the bathroom that one time, that's how he lost the leash, ]

...I guess. [ Will's right, but... ]

It needs to be something bigger. Something that will draw out the real mastermind behind this.

[needing to pee ruins EVERYTHING]

We'll get to the bottom of it. And when we do, we'll make them regret everything they've put into motion.
hanaban: (233)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-09-25 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
[ yeah ]

That's right. They'll wish they never brought us here in the first place.

[he nods firmly at that]

They sure will.
