Snap, twist, crush. Sure, he could take a drubbin’. Dave’s grip tightened on his bottle. “Look, I just don’t really feel like more fucking fighting right now.” There was an unexpected tremble to his voice and he looked away, took a stiff breath. What the fuck. Shadow raised his head, ears...

“A beer’s not going to break any of your bones. Or, you know, temporarily kill you. That’s a plus.” Shadow let out a quiet whine that he ignored. Brisa did fight a lot. She sparred with Mia a bunch, which was good because the rest of the time Mia loved to be sparring with fucking Nate or his...

Dave glanced at her, sipping his beer. “I don’t know, I’m not quite Pokémon enough to be dying to fight people just for the hell of it. But more power to you.” Brisa often talked about this idea of understanding and communicating with people through fighting, and had a literal move to do that...

Dave raised his eyebrows. It checked out that that was a Pokémon’s idea of therapy, he supposed, in the sort of way it checked out that Pokémon flirted by beating each other up. “So you, uh, enjoyed it?” Did people enjoy therapy? Maybe Pokémon would enjoy therapy by combat. That tracked.

"No idea who that is." Dave sipped his drink. "But, uh, I'm guessing they're not secretly an emotionless husk putting up a fake-cheery front? Because that's what Bean is."

Dave raised an eyebrow. "Therapy? I hope it's not with fucking Bean."

"Yeah, no shit." Dave rolled over again and shook his head, accepted the beer and cracked it open. "What have you been up to since the Worldcore, anyway?"

Dave let out a long sigh, rolled onto his back. "Well, Bean's not a spy. Interdimensional organization of god accountability is apparently too busy liberating souls from all the eternal torture dimensions to deal with genocidal tyrants extinguishing all mortal life, which is a real fucking...

"I'm home." Dave shut the door and collapsed on his bed without waiting for an answer. Talking with Bean had been kind of a dead end for the most part. Didn't seem to have a clue, or at least acted like he didn't have a clue, about the scale or origins of the organization. They'd learned a few...

...What in God's fucking name. Who's going to get Diyem? No offense but somehow I'm not sure a fucking Mudkip can drag him back to Destiny Village on his own.

Like whether he was the spy was even the main thing. Bean might claim all they did was liberate Hell-dimensions, but somehow he wasn't thrilled by the creepy organization of all-seeing emotionless overlords. All the same, they probably weren't going to get much more useful out of Bean. He...

[[not Firefighter though]]

[[Yes]]

[[I am also a Reluctant Something which makes me believe Wes's claim; doesn't prove he's not mafia but that all checks out]]

[[Some other stuff that I was thinking on my reread: - I was thinking I might come away from it convinced Wes was town, but I was left at kiiiind of a null on him. Really determined to trust Chappie, which is worth a side-eye if Chappie flips mafia. - Vague suspicion of Kyros - Maybe mafia...

[[Chappie already claimed to have swapped Mewtwo with Namco last night, for what it's worth. This whole theory seems kind of overcomplicated to me - not sure what it explains that isn't explained by our current assumptions? I may need to reread this later.]]

[[The mafia doctor's role wouldn't be useless even if Wes couldn't be a doctor until D2, though! There is another doctor, just one that (the mafia presumably doesn't know) won't be able to act until D2; and also, the mafia doctor could protect other mafia members against vigilantes. It does...

[[Don't worry, we're not voting for you now, if we even tried the day would just be extended thanks to the rule preventing new trains emerging less than an hour before the deadline. Yeah, the idea with mafia!you assuming Wes doesn't know about overdosing would be that scum in general have more...

[[I was already feeling a good bit lot less trusting of Mewtwo before I got to that on my read, so maybe if I'm being way overconfident there, it's because I was already starting to side-eye them a bit. Main reasons I noted down: - Mewtwo's softclaim from D1 was something I'd been wanting to...

"Hold the fuck on," Dave snarled suddenly. "If you figured that as soon as you saw Wes's reaction, then why didn't you fucking say so?" "You're not just not saying it, you're saying someone somehow circumnavigated your protection. The fuck's that supposed to mean, if you actually knew it was...
