Private Conversation: Akane and Holden @ 10am, Cabin L, Akane's Room.

[ She lets him lock the door and as soon as it is she says: ]

Someone is trying to kill me.

[Huh, looks like she's done writing. Sweet. He sits on the bed Indian style with his hands on his kneecaps, looking at her.]

Bruce was really obvious to all of us about not wanting to play along. But he did. Probably even killed Kanaya himself or that's what the Einsteins are assuming. And you heard how much his son freaked out about how he'd never ever do that.

If the hunters are somehow bribed or threatened making them do stuff that bad, then it doesn't seem too unlikely it could gag them too, does it? If there weren't some rule about whether the betrayal was intentional and serious it doesn't sound like Poland would have kept it secret from Lithuania. Though for that matter it could just be playing along with critter considering the hunters only really have to kill a third of the prey and the prey have to lynch just as many hunters to win and all...

[Stares..... wow he is UNABLE TO READ HER FACE...] I guess I wouldn't mind hearing about it if you don't mind. No game stuff that puts anyone in danger, right?

[Well.



That knocks him out alright.

Deep breath.]
You sound like you're uniquely positioned to take a big picture view of this whole game. With all the wolves hunting and rabbits lynching and vultures scavenging. And friends on opposite sides and all...

I guess I'm lucky not to know you that well, if this is really gonna be the case, but it sure doesn't feel that way to me. [Really doesn't. His voice is awfully sympathetic.]

Yeah... [Thinking about James Sunderland, Kanaya, Damian.] They picked off everyone else who voted funny, didn't they? Hehe.

[No that's not funny and those are just noises. But unlike the night they allied up, he doesn't shy away from her touch very much. Instead he puts his hand on her shoulder and awkwardly looks rather earnestly not quite at her.]

Don't worry. I'll do my best for your sake, Akane......

But that's at the trial. We got hours till then. Wanna... talk about something a little less morbid?

[Plz a return to ramblebabbyhood.]

[No we have graduated ramble high school and are now sad ramble emerging adults

We aren't going to the same college]


No, I haven't... it sounds kinda like the Titanic shipwreck, have anything to do with that?

[He dials her number but it's the wrong one... the line is dead

Chinhandsing.]
That's really freaky. Maybe the real conspiracy is that somebody liked Futility a lot and controlled the iceberg in the future. I guess we'll never know. Unless the author gets dragged into this game or something. Which isn't impossible.

Man. Have you ever heard of D.B. Caulfield? He's my older brother, he's a big writer in Hollywood but his books are much better. Maybe since it was 1951 when I left if I get out of here alive I'll tell him about this whole game and there'll be an anachronistic book about it.

[Probably the wrong witty remark to make in this situation. His lips twitch and he charges on.] His best story's called The Secret Goldfish. It's about this kid who buys a goldfish at the fair but then won't let anyone else look at it. Because he bought it with his own money.
