You think? From what I’m taking away from it all, most things save the full extent of Law’s reasons for targeting Douman seem logical.

[dotcom]

Well, a couple of different people suspected Douman, so I'm not surprised about that.

It was just stupid to go after them without actual proof.

[aubins]

... that he was involved with last week’s cases at all, or that he was a culprit in this one? Someone already warned me to be careful of him.

[dotcom]

Both, I guess.

But a few people thought he was involved last week, yeah.

[aubins]

...

I see.

... Perhaps we should have been wishing Law moved a little faster this week.

[dotcom]

[ he sighs ]

If it was Douman, at the very least that's one less murderer on the loose.

[aubins]

And we continue our trend of catching killers after the fact. Or both, as it seems this time.

[dotcom]

Well. At least this time, it wasn't during an evil villain speech.

[aubins]

There’s that, yeah.

[ wow their bar is low, huh? ]

[dotcom]

... it does make me wonder what tomorrow will be like.

I doubt he'll fight back, considering how willing he was to be caught.

[aubins]

Maybe not. But it also depends on who gets called in there with him. Depending on who it is, it could be unpleasant.

[dotcom]

Possibly...

Do you know anyone he wouldn't get along with?

[aubins]

I don't think Medb was too impressed with him killing Douman. Although I don't claim to understand their relationship in the slightest.

[dotcom]

From the little I know about it, it's complicated.

But I don't know if that would mean Law doesn't like her.

[aubins]

I don't know their relationship. So I can't really comment.

We don't even know what this place will think up for an "execution", either.

[dotcom]

... no, we can't even really guess. They have all been so different.

[aubins]

The Avatars still aren't any closer to finding out anything about it, but they do seem to be trying. If we knew how this place was causing it, we might be able to figure out why.

[ ... ]

I meant to ask you something, by the way.

[dotcom]

Oh, sure. What is it?

[aubins]

... Harrowhark made a point to Mineo in the trial, using guns as an analogy. You looked... angry afterwards. Angrier than your usual angry.

Are you alright?

[dotcom]

[ ...

he was really hoping people would only notice mineo's reaction. ]

I didn't think it was funny.

[aubins]

I'm fairly sure Harrowhark didn't mean to hurt him, figuratively or literally, but she has a talent for going right for the jugular.

...

It was pretty intense. For not finding it funny.

[dotcom]

I know. Normally I would have done the same.

[ use a mean and extreme example to make a point. he's not that different from harrow, in some ways. ]

It was just a particularly sore subject, so I didn't think it was funny.

[aubins]

Yeah. I figured. [ that's sort of why he noticed. ]

... Not a fan of guns, then?

[dotcom]

[ ... ]

No. The case I'm working on back home... I'm only doing it to get an anti-gun law reestablished.

[aubins]

[ ... ]

Are you not usually allowed to carry weapons where you're from? [ he's just... allowed to walk around with a sword on his hip the whole time if he wants to. sometimes it's the safest way. ]
