[ well, ]

The accusation against you.
She saw them clearly. What they were doing.

As far as I know, she's told no one else of her intentions.

[ i.e., if you try to talk to her, she will know i narced. ]

But if you think you can stop her, do with it what you will.

[kobes]

[oh. koby's instinct is to spill, to lay it all out and beg jinx to reconsider, but -- maybe that's not the best thought. maybe he needs to think more like silco.

so:] What do you need me to do?
It can be anything. I'll go back to Misty and play dumb. I'll pin the poisoning on someone else.
Anything.

[it rankles at the justice that's such a fundamental part of him, but not as much as the idea of saturday dawning with one of those bodies blue-haired and still.]

[powerhungry]

There's no need for that. Better the truth should come out, anyway.

Stay with her, if you can.
She doesn't want my company, at present.

[kobes]

Well, in the event more is needed, I took quite a few samples at the scene of Ren's poisoning. I think the current evidence is enough, for the moment.

I can do that. I meant to check in with her anyway.
Do YOU want company?

[powerhungry]

[ A beat — longer than he intends. ]

That won't be necessary.

[kobes]

I didn't ask about "necessary."

Sir.

[powerhungry]

No.
You still have this group's trust.
You won't, if you're seen with me.

[kobes]

[i don't care is the impulse, but -- things are so delicate right now. mistrust running high, even amongst this group meant to rely on one another.]

Is that the only reason?

[powerhungry]

[ This time, at least, the answer comes instantly: ]

I want you to look after Jinx.

[kobes]

Then I'll do my best.
