@DONQUIXOT3, video
[ yes it has been some days. yes this is not the first time she's spoken to the network at large. this time, however, she is showing her face and standing quite proudly this morning in front of a parking lot. cars, empty of gas but otherwise whole, scatter the background. ]
Good morn, dear fellows! I have come to thee today to ask a favor, to grant thee an honor, and help this young knight with a missive most important to all!
[ a beat. she swings into frame an umbrella, popping open the apple printed "lance" with a laugh before closing it as she continues, easy-going like she isn't going to be talking about what she is.
unbeknownst to most, don quixote needs this. ]
Thou may have seen some days ago an anonymous message regarding murder. Well! I am here now, asking thee to assist me with something like it -- nay, the exact same! I would like to see for myself, and as proof of the effects for others, what happens when one dies.
I shall not fight thee, unless thou shall wish for it for I am most happy to oblige, and I shall take only one volunteer. Whomever has the daring, the will, and the capacity to kill, I ask that thee throw thy hand up and seek to claim my life! My dear friends need not apply, for I shall reject thee post-haste!
[ she is NOT letting a fellow sinner do it. not her coworkers. she's been fussed at and she's going to be fussed at again. she might let one of the other city-dwellers do it, given they're both fixers (or formerly) but not her coworkers, war vet be damned.
gregor couldn't do it the other time, after all. ]
However, allow me to lay bare the possibilities of what may happen to thee should thou take it upon thyself to do so.
There is a chance thou may forget that which is most precious to thee, that thou will forget the moment of my death itself, and face... certain difficulties in speaking about it. [ she doesn't know if kromer mentioned that, but it's something regardless. ] I may suffer the same. The goal of this is to learn if it is the victim who forgets, if it is the murderer who doth, or if both have it struck from their mind; the secondary goal, a more personal one, is to learn if both may suffer from the others I have mentioned.
... I understand it is difficult to think of killing another, but I can assure thee, such a thing comes up frequently in my work. We are ever prepared to do so, and to die just as well!
[ helps they don't stay dead but she's not. gonna. say that. it might be odd to wonder what effects who in this case, but. well. a lady keeps her secrets. ]
Any who wish to act as witness may attend as well, for we will have need of thee. I thank thee heartily for thy time and thy consideration on the matter.
[ a small bow, hand to her chest and umbrella tucked behind her, and that's that. ]

...People should strive to live. They should fight their hardest to survive, and keep their eyes fixed on the future. I believe that.
To live is my fight. Yet there are things I'll risk my life for.
There's something you're trying to accomplish here. You want to determine the consequences of a murder in the city in a controlled environment, and you believe the outcome will be worth the risk. I understand your reasoning. The more information we have, the better equipped we'll be to handle it the next time someone dies.
[ Because it's inevitable, isn't it. ]
I don't want you to die. Or to forget what's precious to you. ...But I can only tell you what I think. You have the right to decide for yourself what risks you take. What you're willing to sacrifice. We all have that right.

weight isn't such a bad thing though, mind. she'd be just as angry with them if they did this shit. ]
Heehee... Thou art correct, that is exactly mine aim! It may seem silly and foolish to some -- nay, to most, but I do believe it necessary! It is hard to put into words however, particularly to... to those who care.
[ because logic and emotion don't mix. they're polar opposites for a reason; oil and water. it's hard not to be just as charged as them now, bonded through battle and long days riding in a bus, but... still, still, she'll grin brightly. ]
It will be fine. I shall contact thee once I am upright once more, as I have quite the list of people I must now, but I would firstly like to thank thee for thine understanding. Thy fight is one familiar to me, for it is very much one that many of my companions share, as well as many of the people who inhabit the City we are from.
no subject
[ But at least he can offer that much. At a time like this, whether she's right or wrong here, she deserves to be understood. ]
I'll be waiting to hear from you, Don Quixote.
[ He almost ends it there, but -- ]
You have good companions. I'm glad.

[ doesn't help that she's got the two kindest, most emotional of the bus with her. there are those who she would've told this plan to outright and knew they would be alright with doing it themselves (save, perhaps, some questions and needed reassurance that it was what she wished to do) but
with sinclair and gregor, she could never. even if this is just as hurtful. ]
I shall be catching quite the hell from them whence I return, however! It is something I am much looking forward to.
