I don't see any reason to disbelieve the people who spoke up first. Mineo... doesn't see like the sort who'd like in the middle of a trial, given how determined he is every week to do things right.
... And I'd believe Shi Qingxuan, but I haven't asked her, as I can't really offer her anything in return.
I highly doubt Shi Qingxuan would lie - especially when Ming Yi was in hot water for a bit, there. It doesn't seem likely.
That does put everyone else under scrutiny, though. [ and, to the avatar thing, he hums. ] Yes. They expire, just like any other, but those will be much trickier to find.
Mm. At least that's a defensive ability - its the others that are more concerning. There was at least one for blindness, and one to make someone with mad with insatiability - things that could be easily used against someone.
Well, probably. [ ... ] I'm not that worried about it, at the moment. [ gu yun waves his hand lazily ] If it had your book, I'm sure it'll have something on that, too. Maybe they're related.
That's almost all of them. Lust is a no, they don't deserve the association and it's not sexy. Greed... well. I'm not sure I could be greedy about these books.
Literally take them from me, once I'm done with them I don't want to see them again.
Again? [ oh that sounds hilarious. wrath is the best. ] Alright, that is a better idea. We could launch them through the flaming hoops in the circus ourselves, I suppose.

My book?
[ what the fuck is an oliver twist, gu yun ]

[ i have no idea what you're talking about ]

Oh this? [ when you forget there's a book in this thread. ]
Shows how stand out it is if I'm already forgetting about it. Here-- [ he hands it over ]-- you'll see what I mean.

Thanks. I think. [ he will. peruse that later ig ] I suppose reading bad literature counts as indulging.

... I bet, if we asked Wrath, they would be happy to dispose of them. [ with fire, ]

No, they'd get me to dramatically read from them again.

Oh, that'd be a fun idea. Would it get Greed or Gluttony on our cases though, and could we be bothered to deal with that?
no subject
Not if we clean up after ourselves.

Alright, let's go.

Now? I did see Greed in the library, earlier. They might get touchy if we borrow the books right as they're there.
no subject
Good point. He seems like he's real fun at parties.
