[ we are here in this our holy casino-office space-buffet-chapel building. jolyne is holding a glass of something indiscernible and has a cigarette poking out of her lip, unlit. she probably isn't allowed to bring a drink up here, but she's a delinquent and she's not letting anyone stop her, she has smuggled so many things into places she shouldn't, what's a glass?
in any case she's gonna just sit herself down on pew in the center of the chapel and stare ahead. ]
Such is the job of the inquisitor, to hand them down.
[ staff of judgement and all. he eyes her for a moment. ]
As for final verdicts - perhaps it is best to keep those things personal? I did not vote with the majority. Though, in a sense, I suppose I did - a non-vote is just as telling, even if unintentional.
I wouldn't tie it down to righteousness or goodness. We do what we can live with.
[ cleric or not, he's not the type to judge - and large concepts of what's 'good' aren't ever temenos's style.
but, after a moment. ] No one was going to vote for Reigen. That, in its crux, was certainly frustrating. Less so that no one was going to lean that way - more so that we didn't simply acknowledge what was happening as truth so we could solve the other case. That was a waste of precious time.
[ kicking her legs up onto the pew in front of her and sinking down. ]
... Do you think the scores have something to do with it? The ones that happen every week? That it'll reflect every kill too? Been wondering that since the Monday after Mika.
Do you mean for motivation, or in terms of a reward for doing so?
[ thoughtful. ]
I think it's likely points are awarded for acting, yes. I wouldn't be surprised. After all, on Thursdays, heroes are allowed to "act as villains" - so perhaps playing along to avoid capture is a boon on your total of points. Maintaining your status as a hero despite acting briefly as a villain does seem to play well into their narrative.

[ she sips from her glass. ]
You're not afraid of what people think, are you? You should speak your truth. I'm not here for a fight, I'm just here to talk.
no subject
Is there something you want to say, Jolyne?
no subject
I just know Sigrun didn't do it. Period.

[ and that's that! just accepting. he's really not got much to say about it. ]

Maybe I'm not that good a person.
