[R.I.P. genki girls, minako took all the positivity with her when she left.]

No, it will not. We must find a way.

[applechemist]

[ she really did. Escha looks at Flayn for a long moment, then musters up as much positivity as she can. For Flayn's sake. ]

We're going to.

[fishingforcompliments]

...yes.

[She really, really wants to believe that.]

Thank you, Escha. ...for reminding me.

[applechemist]

All of us could use reminding.

It's... Hard to have faith in it. I know that.

[fishingforcompliments]

...it is. But...

[She breathes out.]

...if nothing else... we can have faith in each other, can we not?

[applechemist]

Yes - of course. Of course we can.

I think we should trust each other more than we trust any of the "rules" of this place.

[fishingforcompliments]

[she nods]

I think so, too. We merely have to figure out how best to circumnavigate those rules.

[applechemist]

... I don't know what that means about trials, though, and how we should navigate them.

[fishingforcompliments]

...I do not, either. I suppose we do not have much choice but to... continue as we have been. [...] If failing to vote would result in the same thing as no one dying at all, then... I cannot see that we have much choice.

[applechemist]

The ways that we can break the rules... Might be different. Outside of trials, maybe.

[fishingforcompliments]

You may be right - there is not as immediate a threat of death outside of the trials as there are within them...
