Compulsion has its own problems, too, doesn't it? Because if they're compelled there's no telling where it'll stop. It's too convenient for them to be compelled and their will to break free right after a kill.
There's no good answer. What the hell is the point of a school if we aren't learning anything?
It's not that I don't like the classes. It's that I think a lot of them actually aren't going to help us do much of anything except distract us from what's happening.
Maybe just make sure to go to one anyway. We still don't know what happens if we do skip...and with everything else that happens here I don't know if that's a risk we should take yet anyway.
You and me both. [which is, as usual, annoying.] But now that we know that's a thing, maybe we should be keeping an eye out for anything unusual. It might give us a lead or something.
Yeah...if we know each other better we can pick up on things faster. [...] Should I take that to mean you've been trying to be nice to everybody still?
[...there's a nod. hilariously that isn't at all applicable to why he was asking, but it's very applicable to something else he's thinking about so he goes quiet.]
...I wouldn't disagree. I was just wondering. [...] We still don't know why this is happening. So I'm wondering if maybe there is a reason that...
[that the killing is helpful. he doesn't say that out loud, and he would normally not float the question, but he does wonder a bit.]

I like the idea of it being compulsion. I prefer that, to the idea that there are those who could rest easy after what they've done.

[ but - she shakes her head. it's all just guess work anyway, so there's no point getting caught up in potential details. ]
... What - you didn't enjoy "bees" class?

Would you believe me if I said Crow and I snuck out of class to go make fish burgers?

However, I consider myself a deeply loyal person.
no subject
[he...does not elaborate on that, exactly.]
But it's not a bad thing to be. Loyal. And nice to people.

Luxanna, let me ask you something. If you were torn between two different loyalties, how would you pick between them?
no subject
... That... Would depend on what is at stake. I will always choose the path that puts the least people in harm's way.

A reason that things have to happen like this? I can't wrap my head around one, but it is a possibility I've considered.
I don't know what to do differently, even with that theory on the table.
no subject
Sorry. I didn't mean to bring it up like that.
no subject
It's something we must be aware of as a possibility. Better not to be blindsided by something we hadn't so much as considered.
... I think that... Duty can make people do very unfortunate things.
