<purplepiper> cw: cannibalism mention
Don't you think it's creepy that she knows how to make people's guts into sausages??
I mean I didn't care but that's because I was in a hurry, and besides YOU'RE clever, like the Boss
You've gotta be able to piece it together!
I don't know what it says about her, but I bet YOU can!
<Zigazigah> GOD
or were. i don't know why you didn't say this to start with but yes, it is frankly insane that she would do that for you. or that you would ask her to do that. but mostly it's the fact she agreed that's the weirdest part. i imagine she did so with zero hesitation.
don't you dare compare me to him, either. we're nothing alike. although maybe he would have some insight to offer since she seems to like the both of you oh so much.
but from what i know of her in our Nai'a encounters, she has a flair for the dramatic and is hard to read otherwise, which may be intentional. additionally, if she knows how to butcher someone on request, i imagine she must have done it many times in the past. that could be half of why she believes so squarely in violence as a show of someone's true intentions. maybe she was a murderer before coming here. for fun, i should clarify.
all the more reason to avoid her. she isn't someone to trust, regardless of whether or not she churns your guts for you or buys you a godforsaken fish
<purplepiper>
Sorry, sorry, that's not what we're talking about, I'll focus!
also I get what you mean but... aren't you kind of forgetting I'm a gangster?
She can't be worse than Cioccolata and I was higher than HIM on the ladder.
<Zigazigah> trish: ignores the fact doppio outranked ciaccolata
[Except for the moments when they are very much alike, but, well.]
and no, i haven't forgotten. unless you mean to tell me you had an ounce of trust in your heart for that man, and regularly went to the movies with him or something unbelievable like that.
but i will concede she probably isn't as bad. although if she were i'm not sure if it would come to our attention. remember, people are killed by monsters all the time here and we receive little retribution for it. the police certainly don't do anything about it.
conversely, i'm sure covering Ciaccolata's tracks was an immense pain in the ass back in Italy, where people very much do give a damn when mass murder happens.
<purplepiper>
The Boss only ever called him up for the worst case scenarios, he didn't LIKE him or the pet guy.
god being melted felt weird. uh where was I
Oh yeah.
Rome was gonna be a huge mess no matter what.
I was supposed to come in and stop him once he took care of you guys? Honestly not sure how
But the point is the Boss felt really cornered, ok? We never would have called him otherwise.
Wait, is this alright to talk about?
<Zigazigah>
and you call him clever.
i'm sure you can understand why i'm less than sympathetic, considering the circumstances. unless you want me to apologize for remaining alive to have this conversation at all.
either way, ciaccolata isn't a perfect metric of comparison, but i will give you that you knew him well, while we know little about Beatrice. i'm going to keep an eye on her, for what it's worth.
<purplepiper>
He IS clever but he has so much faith in me even though I don't have my own Stand, you know?
And sometimes it just gets me wondering why. I guess he must have thought I could handle it but I bet even if he let me borrow more of King Crimson I wouldn't be able to use it the way he does.
NO I was just... I got off-track, my bad
This stuff's hard to control.
And uh thanks.
I mean, you're not worried, right?
It's just because of the truce.
<Zigazigah> cw racing thoughts

sorry, sorry. ignore that.
i meant to say, you shared...his Stand with him. i didn't realize that was possible. a Stand is a user's soul, isn't it? that's what you said to me, if you'll remember.
i'm not worried either. not unless she approaches you again. just. tell me if she does. alright?
<purplepiper>
Actually
ignoring it sounds good ignore it okay ignoring!
Anyway...
I still don't know if I should be talking about this? But I'm thinking about it and trying too hard not to might be worse, so okay, I don't know if "sharing" is really the right word.
The Boss just lent me parts of it because otherwise I'd be pretty useless against other Stand users.
Now I have Epitaph all to myself which is kind of weird but only once a day so sometimes I forget until I see a ball hitting me in the face and then a ball hits me in the face
Oh yeah sure.
She's talking to me in her post right now, does that count?
<Zigazigah> sorry abt ur inbox there Dopp JDSJSD
but i can't focus on that because yes! OF COURSE IT COUNTS!
why are you engaging with her still? we're literally discussing at this very moment why that's a TERRIBLE idea!
what is she saying, Doppio?
no apologies. wreck it harder
And look just so you know, I replied to her post BEFORE you messaged me, ok?
She's not egging me on about that stuff from last time though, I started thinking about another guy and what I wanted to do to him and she's asking about THAT instead.
In a really weirdly intense way
GFDGDFDFG
but i'll set that aside. i don't know why fits of violence are so common to your mind that she's getting another glimpse of it. think about literally anything else! something that will bore her to tears.
for example...frogs. you like those, right? you were talking to one when we first met.
no subject
If Carne's weird Stand could do that, why can't the Boss let other people use parts of King Crimson?
And look, it's not as bad as it sounds, ok? It's not like it was unprovoked, this other guy tried to kill me and he was a pain in the ass to deal with.
Anyway...
Yeah, sure. Animals in general, I guess.
they're easy to talk to.
no subject
[Note: she fucking hates Notorious B.I.G. and will never be able to get on a plane without remembering it every time.
At least she's letting go of the King Crimson ability sharing. For now.]
i'm going to assume you're talking about gang business from home and not someone trying to kill you here. because if it IS someone here, i want to know who it is and why because you're too pathetic to be a target otherwise.
either way, just think about them then. an animal you've talked to recently, even. i don't care what kind. as long as it's a memory that gives nothing to Beatrice, i'll be satisfied.
no subject
He wasn't so bad though, just kind of weird.
But anyway... Wow I keep getting distracted. I can't wait for this to get fixed
Oh yeah the guy I'm thinking of was from home, don't worry.
Leader of the Hitman Team
I didn't mean to say that much but I guess now you know? Not that it really matters.
what HAVE I been talking to? dragonfly. gecko. I forget
no subject
and no, it doesn't matter. all of them are dead, and unless they show up here, they're going to remain so.
think about the gecko instead. geckos have sticky feet don't they? i'm sure you found it clinging to a wall.
[She hopes Beatrice is getting bored, wherever she and Doppio are chatting right now. Geckos are only exciting to certain people, after all.]
no subject
And then it ran off anyway. :( I guess I got too close.
no subject
[She's going to keep him on this train of thought at least.
Otherwise, the initial panic is over, unless Doppio reports back with Beatrice redirecting him to a troubling topic.]
