Lio can probably read them to you.

Do you think that's likely?

[burningrescue]

Psh. Lio ain't gonna read shit to me. He's just gonna get mad at me if I ask. And yeah, why shouldn't he?

[slobjection]

He'd probably get madder if you refused to vote and died.

[ galo. ]

Does Master Blue seem like the straightforward type to you?

[burningrescue]

I don't know fuck all about Master Blue. Those girls won't say anything about him.

[Huffing, though. He knows Phoenix is right...]

Lio isn't exactly a big fan of me, you know. If I refused to vote and died, he'd probably be like. 'Tch! That idiot! Good riddance!' And then he'd set the library on fire.

[slobjection]

A little telling in itself, isn't it? That the girls are running the show?

[ oh galo. ]

Is that why he suggested you trade votes...?

[burningrescue]

We see things the same way, for the most part. Aside from burning down cities. That's why he suggested that.

[Listen, god bless Phoenix for trying, though.]

Yeah, it's suspicious as hell. Master Blue's kicking back somewhere, making some animal girls execute people. I get that, but there still has to be a way to deal with him directly. If the girls are just following orders...well, maybe we can still convince them to ditch Blue? But it's hard, when they won't say shit about him.

[slobjection]

With the added bonus of you not dying.

[ he tried and therefore no one can criticize him. ]

Nope, not going to work. For better or worse, they're loyal to the end.

Plan B?

[burningrescue]

How do you know? Maybe they're loyal, but they could change their minds.

[slobjection]

If they haven't thus far, I find that unlikely.
