[ law and his moral gray. sometimes when you're a pirate who kills people.....
also he's really only telling mahito this because he has a favor over this flea's head. anyone else...maybe not so much. ]
If you want to take things down this route—murder can be seen as getting two things done with one stone. Eliminating the number of people you're competing against and an indulgence.
Law gets himself a curious little look at that, though. Then, with a smile:]
Hah, well! You're really not wrong at all! Get a bunch of ambitious people together and there's bound to be some blood spilled sooner rather than later, right? If you want to survive and come out on top, fast action's not so bad, you know?
Exactly, not to mention when I spoke to my avatar, Pride, they made it clear that there were no rules to any of this. Even the part where we indulge is a heavy handed suggestion.
[ so, you know, you could, in theory, just murder everyone in order to win... not the best plan or one that would work out well but. YOU KNOW. ]
[SOME RANDO JUST TPKS WEEK 1. He hums though, nodding along as Law talks.]
Mmhm! The ones I've talked to have all made it pretty clear that our only limits are the ones we set on ourselves. Clearly, someone's already decided to see how far they can go.
However, if someone wants to get away with it, the more people the harder it is to pin it on anyone. Especially, if you don't know the people you're dealing with.
[ so...kudos to them??? EXCEPT LOOKS AT RESULTS FROM THE FUTURE AND :THINKING: REALLY LOUDLY. ]
[touches the ground and touches my forehead and touches the sky]
Yep, that's true. A risky move, but one they probably saw enough reward in that it made things worthwhile for them! And this is the kind of place where fortune favors the bold, too.
Yeah, I've never been one to play by the rules, and fortunately, this place doesn't have any. So, there's really no reason why anyone should be holding back on trying to figure out the best way that they can win.
Depending on how the next few days go it'll be easier to see what would be the better ways to go about moving forward with a method like this.
Also wow. LAW!!!! Though to be fair he's probably one of the best people to deetdrop at, especially for things like this. He just nods... Sometimes you gotta mckill, it happens.]
[This flea absolutely does understand and supports Law's murderous endeavors.]
Mmm. Yeah, makes sense, makes sense. If it's something important, then you've gotta do what you can to put as many safeguards in place as possible, yeah?
Mmm... A thing - but something else, too. [Since it's more important than just a thing, after all. He'll keep his generalizations, but clarify at least a little:] A future.
Isn't that a comfy position to be in. However, for something like that, I wonder what they'd end up handing out. Something that could protect the future.
[ would it be a single thing or...? hm. law doing a little think. ]

It's a bit of a risky move for them to do so.
However, if someone wants to get away with it, the more people the harder it is to pin it on anyone. Especially, if you don't know the people you're dealing with.

In any case, he just smiles - just a tiny little quirk of one.]
Sounds like you're going to be keeping a pretty close eye on it yourself, doctor!
no subject
What kind of doctor isn't attentive to their patients?
no subject
One who's also a mortician, maybe. [But it's clear from his tone that he's just joking. TAMAKI'S DEAD but it's fine.]
no subject
I'm a pirate too if you want to keep adding to my titles.
no subject
Anyway, with a little "oooh":]
Stereotypical pirate? Like, ransacking other ships and taking treasure and all?
no subject
No, I'm not interested in that sort of thing. I have bigger plans, but it's not as though I haven't done that either.
no subject
Yeah? What're you mainly interested in, then? I didn't think pirates really did anything else.
no subject
Killing a particular person; I have a debt that needs to be repaid.
no subject
Also wow. LAW!!!! Though to be fair he's probably one of the best people to deetdrop at, especially for things like this. He just nods... Sometimes you gotta mckill, it happens.]
Is that how you ended up here?
no subject
Pretty much. I have a plan but having insurance to know that it'll succeed is something I won't turn down.
no subject
Mmm. Yeah, makes sense, makes sense. If it's something important, then you've gotta do what you can to put as many safeguards in place as possible, yeah?
no subject
Yeah; you're here for the same reason right? [ actually— ] What is your reason?
no subject
I want to protect something really important to me. We have a way of doing it already, but! You know. [Gestures...] You get it.
no subject
I do. [ he sure does... ] Is that something important to you a thing, person, or something else?
[ he'll let the flea have generalizations. ]
no subject
Mmm... A thing - but something else, too. [Since it's more important than just a thing, after all. He'll keep his generalizations, but clarify at least a little:] A future.
no subject
A future? [ hmmm. ] A bit abstract with that one, but if you're to ask for something then aim big.
[ except law doesn't because he's law. ]
no subject
Mmhm! That's what I figured, anyway. Outside from that wish, there's not much I want that I can't get on my own, anyway.
