Just a friendly reminder that you idiots elected this team again. This was the choice the majority of you made.
Where's Grell? Or was this her idea?

DEPUTY RECAP:
Maribelle- both deputy (person who arrests people) and the public defender (how terrifying is it that the person who arrests you is who your life is dependent on? not fair to anyone who needs legal representation whether they're criminal or not, bias, horrifying)
Marco- about 90% sure he set that fire, threatened to do it again
Remilia- so egotistical she had to come try to rub it in my face after they won, then acted surprised when she got treated like shit for being an asshole. an immature bully who threatens anyone who questions her. definitely the kind of person you want in this position.
Don't know about Hikaru Takeda and Seth Rim yet, but I am sensing a pattern here lol

You're right. It's exactly the sort of thing you shouldn't shy away from. I kept telling you to stand up for what's right and now I'm telling you to stay out of it.
I'm sorry.
I [ Fact is, that had been easier before Kay died and he was reminded how much it hurts to watch the people he cares for sacrifice themselves, good cause or not. ] I just don't want to find your body.
It's not about you accusing Grell. It's because today Marco threatened to start killing people and he has reason to hunt you down.
A bodycam won't spare you a painful death.

"It's not about overpowering an enemy. It's about taking away what power they have."
People don't think I'm the one who should have it and that's fine. I don't need power. I didn't tell you, but a few people came to me after I lost asking for.. well, more. I don't know how to do this without doing it her way, so instead of disappointing everyone again maybe I should let them make me into their own breaking point. The bodycam isn't to spare me from it.
1/2
That is a logical course of action
2/2
I don't want you to goad him into violence when you're the one who will have to suffer the consequences.
[ But. It is a logical decision. It's the kind of decision he would have supported and made back home. It's just... He slumps. It was supposed to be better here. Nothing's been better here, other than that killing your enemies first doesn't help... and friends and foes are even more complicated, too. ]
I'm sorry. It's a good plan. I'm biased.

It's a good plan. But he doesn't want her to do it. That dull ache is back, in both head and chest. Why does it feel like her stomach is dropping any time she has to make a decision lately? She just wants to feel like she isn't failing at this point. The only way she knows how to do it is through what Cinder taught her, and that way is just going to upset him. Probably Mercury too- Merc's probably going to get involved if someone kills her, she knows she would if someone did him. ]
Forget it.

I don't want us to fight again. Not over this.
Kriff.
I'm bad with this. You know I'm bantha shit with words unless I'm telling people whatever they want to hear.
[ But kriff. Maybe he should just do that. He rubs his hands over his face, taking a moment to just stew in his frustrations. Sometimes he really wants to go back to speaking her as a spy would as the other Cassian had the whisper at the back of his mind goes. The other one, who had woven a pretty web to catch his Emerald in, he hadn't messed up. Of course, he had stuck to what they are actually good at. ]
I know it's on me. Getting attached is my problem. So I'm not telling you not to do it.
I realize it doesn't look like it but I'm trying here.
It's a good plan.

There are some things that make it pointless, good plan or not. I'm mad at a lot of things right now, but you aren't one of them.
no subject
Am I allowed to say I hate how things work here? I knew the rules at home. Here I still feel like I don't know a thing after ayear
no subject
you can say whatever you want i'm not the thought police but i think you might want to re-examine what "hate" means to you
no subject
What I meant is I hate that there are no clear cut lines here. Good and evil are more blurred. There is bad not absolute planet-destroying evil. That makes it harder to tell you to go get yourself killed for a cause.
And pendant bearers don't stay dead so I couldn't even kill people who are a danger to you
no subject
It's sweet that you want to kill people to protect me :P
Gonna send me a Valentine's Card next?
[ Teasing is so much easier than actually being flattered. She's going for teasing. Sorry Cassian. ]
no subject
You wouldn't enjoy that unless it's an exploding one.
[ "Thank you" would have been nice but he's okay with deflecting and not talking about your feelings.
Especially when he knows the answer is yes, he would kill for her. ]
