Ghost... Ah - Polly?

Then I wonder... what exactly does your role entail? Is it protective? Something to do with money?

Are there roles that are something to do with money? It seems like it spans quite a broad range of things overall.

I'm learning about more of them as I go, I'm afraid. There are only a few that I don't know of, so I am running out of ideas...

Hmm, does your ability have anything to do with the demon? [a beat] Demons now, I suppose.

No, not exactly.

[ ... ] What are the ones you've discovered? I can work out the who with a bit of time, but what we're able to do interests me.

Do you gather information on the rest of us?

[meaning the ship as a whole -

though at the question higekiri hums softly]

... Some are protective in nature, others preventative, and others gain insights about what happens on the ship. Though.... at least two others with roles are no longer on board.

That narrows things down from suspicion to fact. There is an investigative role.

[ he's out here snooping. ]

I was aware of the pink-haired girl's role, yes. Did she ever share specifics?

She did.

[but also - ]

You didn't answer my question. Am I anywhere near close?

About the demons? I did answer that one.

But do you gather information about the rest of us?

No, I don’t. I said I just confirmed that role existed.

[he siiiiiighs]

You must have a very odd role...

Does it have anything to do with items?

[ it’s only fun because hige makes it complicated, honestly. ]

Not at all.

[he hates this game]

Making choices?

[ haha, yeah it’s terrible. ]

No.

[he's going to start pouting soon]

Sending messages?

[ siiigh. pout away. ]

No.

I’m not even sure if I can give you hints.

Mm... only if I get close to it, I think.

[he's been guided in the right direction before]

Do the others who know your role know its function?

Yes, two I believe. One figured it out rather neatly and the other I left enough clues that if they don’t figure it out I’ll lose any respect I may have had for them. [ haha wow! ]

Wind it back a little and think more basically.

More... basically...?

[help he's still flying blind]

... Might it have anything to do with the ship itself?

[ sigh ]

You suggested two different types of role earlier and I focused on and dismissed one of them. It’s of little concern to me if you can’t put it all together, it won’t change what I do.

[ and hige seems interested in knowing ]

Oh...?

[he blinks in surprise]

You're a protective role?

I find it pretty amusing as well.

[there's just a soft laugh at that]

What is it that you protect people from? Demon attacks? From being possessed?

From being killed.

[ hm, hmmm. ]

On Thursdays or Sundays?
