[WEEK 2, SATURDAY POST-TRIAL: Katara]

[spinatalltale]

[knock knock knock on the Katara-Inuyasha hut. the only reason she's here is because someone bullied her into getting first aid]

Heeeeey! I need a bandage! Quick, before I bleed out! Help meeeeeeeeeee. . .!

[ah, yes. unnecessary dramatics]

[spinatalltale]

Oh?

But who decides which path is the correct one?

[seaclipsed]

No one specifically. We all do. That's what it means being part of a group, Magilou. We'll argue, and get angry at each other, but as long as people are trying their best to make sure everyone makes it out of here instead of only concentrating on themselves, we'll be okay.

[spinatalltale]

[. . . gross!! she doesn't want to be part of a group!! Magilou does what Magilou wants!!]

If you say so! That still doesn't explain why your roommate got angry at you for suddenly deviating from your ingenious plan to dodge the rules.

[seaclipsed]

Have you... met Inuyasha...?

[ it's cute how magilou thinks that he needs valid reasons to get angry???? ]

[spinatalltale]

I took his coconuts for my coconut tax.

[that's a yes]

[seaclipsed]

He really doesn't need a lot of reasons to yell at you.

[ she's not even going to ask about the coconut tax thing. magilou is just weird. ]

[spinatalltale]

He's really very loud.

I need to borrow that kid's ear plugs the next time I'm around him.

[seaclipsed]

It's actually really not that hard to talk to him though, once you get used to it.

[ katara is used to dealing with loud, dumb boys. it's fine. ]

[spinatalltale]

No one is hard to talk to if you know how to approach him. Me?

I just wanted his coconuts.

[seaclipsed]

He thinks you're capable of murder because of that, just so you know.

[ listen. LISTEN. they argued about more than just the vote. their hut is so loud. ]

[spinatalltale]

[GASP]

How did he know I come from a world where coconut theft is a gateway crime to murder?!

[she isn't taking this seriously]

[seaclipsed]

[ no katara just called him an idiot and they argued about it so??? ]

He sure is sneaky like that.

[spinatalltale]

[thanks Katara for defending her honor]

A spy, huh. . . I'll have to figure out how to build some anti-spy traps just in case.

[seaclipsed]

What would an anti-spy trap entail?

[spinatalltale]

A pit covered with leaves.

[SAGE NOD]

[seaclipsed]

So... how are you going to get him to walk over the pit?

[spinatalltale]

Put some doggy treats on it.

[get it]

[dog ears]

[doggy treats]

[seaclipsed]

He'll probably try fighting you if you do that.

[ that just seems like the kind of thing that'll make inuyasha attempt fisticuffs. ]

[spinatalltale]

I could take him.

[she disarmed a man with a LADLE]

[seaclipsed]

Or you can rest and stop getting into fights with people.

[ please think of the bandage supply. ]

[spinatalltale]

Truthfully, I'm not looking for fights at all. They just happen to find me.

[seaclipsed]

Jaffar probably wouldn't have attacked you if you just talked to him normally from the start.

[ everyone else immediately jumped into explaining their vote, while magilou was... overdramatic instead of going straight to the point. pls. ]

[spinatalltale]

I did! I told him immediately that I voted for Pal!

[in her dramatic Magilou way]

[seaclipsed]

Did you say it in the same exact way you just told me?

[spinatalltale]

[uuugh]

Maybe not exactly, but who cares! I got the point across!
