[It's fine, this is a safe space for gays. Also he's quietly perceiving Steven and Law. They're good together and they work together well. How different would it have been if they all made it to the end without dying?]
Why do people think you're killing your friends?
[He continues to hate it.]
It's fair to be frustrated, even with how things are here.
[Gojou lost so many friends, so quickly. And people weren't exactly hiding how biased they were.
Because they're stupid, and probably desperate to find anyone they can actually pin down for their crimes. Given the three weeks in a row where people failed to get the proper person, and Law didn't put up much of a fight to defend himself.
[ Steven's still not entirely happy about that, but it's a thing of the past. And they'd done a good job so far. ]
The last trial was bullshit for a lot of reasons. The Ken Rex McElroy style execution where nobody wanted to care, the damn bits and pieces of past trials... Mineo confessing like that was the right thing to do, but only when he was assured nobody would vote for him. I don't dislike the kid, but it was incredibly dishonest, and if those greatest hits were a hint to try to talk about past murders, it was also a stupid way to do it.
[ LOOK!!!! he gets that steven wasn't thrilled to see him and pride threw a fit but....... it worked out for the best??? ]
I didn't want to waste anyone's time chasing me around while Omi's murderer was set to be at large. Of course, at that time I didn't realize that Douman was the one who killed Omi.
Which is more decency than anyone else offered. [ "so and so is valid" are they tho? ] Yeah, as though the living murderers would even think to implicate themselves for any kind of moral upstanding. The only valid murder is the one where you kill a murderer?
[ cue law rolling his eye and leaning onto steven. ]
[ damn... Gojou did bitch about all of this to Greed, though not much from an emotional standpoint, instead logical. It's how he understands most things, how he tries to stretch his sympathy. Either way, he thought he was insane for a weekend to think things were fucked up with the living people. ]
Law is actually such a good guy? It makes everyone look like villains—except for Omi and Aoi.
[ And that's weird considering he knows Law would kill people if he wanted to. Not that Gojou is too different. ]
[Omi's an emotionally driven person. He just tries his best to keep himself open to other people's view points. But... It was hard to sympathize with most of the living as the weeks went on.]
I think Law's a great guy.
[What do you mean him and Aoi? Aoi's never killed anybody, Gojou.]
Well, he's the one who gave away the answer to surviving the execution, even though he absolutely didn't have to. [ Reaching up, he doesn't even need to see to pinch Law somewhere. Possibly around the cheek. ] Amidst other things.
Not to mention, he stuck around to try to find Omi's killer despite everything even when he owed the living nothing at all. [ It's doxxing hours. ] Compare that with the last trial, for example.
WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS??? WHY ARE THEY ALL GANGING UP ON HIM ALL OF A SUDDEN??? also steven is allowed to pinch his cheeks for the sake of "EXCUSE". actually holy shit what does he even say about any of this.
he's just going to slap steven's hand and pull on the bill of his hat over his face. please do not. ]
[ he snorts at Law's reaction... Gojou didn't say it as an opening to BULLY HIM, so he gently taps his shoe against Steven's. BE NICE!! JUST A BIT!!!! damn, i oocly defend naru and gojou is going to defend law now. ]
Mineo is young and he had good intentions, but I'm surprised no one else that knew about it saw his plan and thought maybe not to go through with some of this.
[ He gives Gojou a look. WHAT? He's telling the truth and Law won't take credit for it himself anyway. And what do you mean DEFEND LAW, HE NEVER ATTACKED HIM...!! ]
I think we can all agree that the entire concept of trials here is a total farce. All agreed on that end, I presume?
[ Hey, look at how many chips they got. Could totally buy an entire toy mansion with their M*nopoly bag. ]
[ what credit!!! there's no credit to be taken here!!! but he's glad for the topic change so that he can be happy with the redirection of conversation. he didn't mind talking about himself but not about things he couldn't control. ]
It was all a farce from the very beginning when we didn't have to vote. We could have called it quits and done anything else during those times.
[ oh. congrats on your chips steven....if only it was real(?) money(?) ]
[ Just take a nap, Gojou. Fuck the trial, since voting isn't mandatory. He does seem to agree in gneral that the notion of trials and the like were exhausting, though, just shaking his head shortly. ]
I don't know, I don't look at prizes... or gamble really that often. It's a wonder that some people consider this a serious hobby of theirs.
You can pick whatever you want. Maybe they'll have a nice champagne, or a stuffed animal like a carnival.
[ law was fine to let the whole matter of shitty trials and wasted time go as he thinks about the matter of stuff they could buy with the "money" they've won. ]
I'm not sure either, but I'm fairly certain it has to do with the thrill of winning.
[ which is coming naturally for both gojou and steven but hey! not a bad thing. ]
[ because. uh... wow i wish one piece was a little less "oh okay" about reanimating the dead but here we are. it happened in canon. to the prize board?? which is....apparently filled with what you can expect from one of those game arcade places in terms of prizes and honestly? law isn't even sure where to begin with it.

[ Tilts his head. Is that right? ]
no subject
Except, he's just a simple tsundere. Omi's done a little bullying somewhere else, so he will let Law go on this one. No dog-piling right now.]
He discussed it with people too?

[ But he waved it off? He doesn’t want to think about it anymore. ]
To be honest, nine hour trials on a Saturday isn’t worth the extra benefits you get from killing to me.
[ But Gojou doesn’t really care for the system... His wish is also something he can attain himself, but god.
Their whole Saturdays. GONE. Cause of murder. ]
Did we want to go buy some prizes now?
