Sure, they're dead, but emotions remain, don't you think? Memories remain. What's wrong if it benefits you? Why are saying being selfish is so wrong when all of us are here for some selfish reason?
[ Even if a wish can be selfless, they can only reach it bey being selfish. That's the name of indulgence. ]
What, a challenge to try and unlock my secrets? You can always try, Medb.

[ he just laughs. ] It's my little reminder to myself. Don't forget the dead, even if they don't know or benefit from it. But don't forget it's a selfish reason, and maybe try and avoid being in that situation again.
It's hard to save anyone when you're forced asleep, but there are more things we could do during trials. Despite how they've all ended, it's not like people aren't trying.
I'm not above surprise tactics, but sometimes it's more satisfying when you win and the other person can see it coming, you know?

After - [ she gestures at the chocolate. ] We'll have to clean this up, but after that, people will try to be a little more organized so we don't spend hours on one thing.
[ if there are crimes then they are a surprise to me too ]
[ LOOKS AT THIS WEEKEND’S TRIAL TIREDLY ]
It’d be nice if our killers could be restrained enough to leave one body this time. [ ha ] I don’t think for a moment they’ll stop killing, but they could wind it back a little.
... I don't even know what the phones can do other than text and take the odd photo. Could we be messaging someone back in the conference room to tell them what we've found? Means we don't have to wait around for people to get back from investigations.
...
But also means we'd be working off of minimal information until they did.
... Well, I'd take minimal over nothing. I'm just concerned we could run too wild with theories and then struggle to detach from them if they're proved wrong by other information we find or are told about.
We're very good at hyperfocusing. But not in a good way.

Save them, rather than mourn them. If you can.

[ don't lie to me, becks. looks at your past crimes.
Her smile is small but soft. ]
That's poignant, and I don't disagree with it. Save who you can when you can. You regret the things you don't do more than the things you do.

[ ara, bold of you to assume i knew anything that was going on last game either, until crystal dropped the hansa confession and the ot4 in my lap. ]
... It'd be nice if we aspired to those guidelines a bit here. Our track record is poor.

you have other past crimes, becks. ]

yes but i have none this game i don't know what's going on ]

[ she points straight at him. he’s someone it’d be satisfying without a full surprise. ]
We’re terrible at finding out who it is. I don’t think that’ll encourage people to keep it on the lower body count side.

We probably overcomplicate things. If we do things more logically, and try and keep our evidence in order maybe things will be easier.
These phone things have a camera option, don't they? I need to remember that I can take images of places I investigate.
