Right.

I'll put it on my thinking list.

[zauneyete]

I am capable of digging in myself as well, Jinx. You know I cannot let something like this stand.

[powderkegs]

Ooh, getting in on the action, old man?

[zauneyete]

I've been known to get my hands dirty. Just because you and Sevika were doing work these days, doesn't mean I can't.

In fact, we need all the hands we can get on something like this. Two pairs is better than one, yes?

[ For a long while, he was doing it all alone, and it had been... well. Even with his lack of self-reflection, he knew it hadn't been good. ]

[powderkegs]

I'm not complaining!

Let's put those heads together and come up with a plan.

[zauneyete]

[ Jinx are you not ashamed to work with your dad? No, don't answer that ]

We will.

And then we'll see what LILITH will do, when we start picking at the threads, hm? Maybe we can draw a reaction out from them.

[powderkegs]

[ way past shame now. ]

What we need is a patsy. Someone to take the fall and push our agenda.

[zauneyete]

Oh, well, we have the pick of the litter here, don't we? An entire flush of people who fashion themselves as heroes, practically chomping at the bit.

They would be ready to convince.

[powderkegs]

We should rank them from 1 to 10 on gullibility.

[zauneyete]

An entire list of options. Everyone from Itadori to that brash loud one, though we should aim for one with a touch more discretion, don't you think?

[powderkegs]

The puppy's out. He's watched. We need someone dumb that doesn't rouse everyone's suspicion.

[zauneyete]

The children tend to all come together and watch over one another. Perhaps one of the creatures? The turtles or the kaiju. They tend to be more... easily led, let's just say.

[powderkegs]

Oooh, those could work. The kaiju are especially a bit wonky in the head. And they kinda do their own thing.

Less of a hassle should the truth come out.

[zauneyete]

They might also be troublesome. The lizard tends to be explosive if he catches wind of trouble.

The turtles, however, fight as much as they are linked. They could be used. One of them is... smart enough to see the logic in a plan like this.

[ he means leo ]

[powderkegs]

Really?

I hadn't detected much in the way of intelligence between them all. I figured they were all sharing the one brain cell.

[zauneyete]

That's because you're smarter than everyone else in the room, Jinx. I don't discount that two of them are simple enough that they could be used. We just have to avoid the one that, as he put it, knows how to put them into position.

Distract the planner, if he can't be brought on board. Easy enough to do, hm?

[powderkegs]

Not a problem. He's easy enough.

Time to make some turtle soup.

[zauneyete]

Ah, so you're familiar.

That makes it easier. We can take this and run with it, Jinx. Do what is necessary for us to come out on top before they use us.

[powderkegs]

Gotcha. No need to rush into this.

[zauneyete]

After last time? We can't afford to dawdle.

No rushing, but we don't have all the time in the world, either.

wrap?

[powderkegs]

[ hm. that's . . . odd. ]

You're the boss.
