she's not either of those things so much, but she is sad, and it probably isn't a surprise. she does like uriel. and she did lead to uriel getting voted for. so... this sucks.
she takes the booze when it's handed to her, and sighs.]
I don't know, a general opinion of the day's events. You probably don't give much of a shit about Uriel. [that's not accusatory, she just thinks he doesn't really get close to anybody here.]
She's not entirely wrong, though he does tilt his head slightly.]
Is that how I seem? [He doesn't sound accusatory; just a little curious, maybe a touch surprised.] It's true I didn't really know her or Zagreus... and now that we know they just end up on a different island, I'm a little less concerned for our dead. But I do think it's stupid they got roped into this situation, just like Lavi did. [He'd rather go back to the intentional homicides tbh... at least hunting down those murderers had a veneer of logic.]
I didn't vote for her, if that's what you're wondering.
[This is probably the first time anyone has ever said this to him because he is truly the Jorts of the Fatui so he just looks confused, hilarious
But he shakes his head.]
Why would I? It was the same as last week--someone with no murderous intent got dragged into a ridiculous accident. I'm not going to vote for someone who isn't a threat.
[In fact, he's a little annoyed that both Uriel and Lavi heroically asked people to vote for them because he thinks it's dumb... but he doesn't say that part]
No offense to our hardworking group, but if I killed someone here on purpose, I doubt anyone would catch me. [Don't just say that] But no, I wouldn't, even if it was an accident.
[Especially if it was an accident, actually--but he's made his opinion on voting for accidental murderers clear enough.]
It's not like I have any reason to. [He's TOO SUS of Satan's stupid party and Scaramouche is nerfed :/ But he nods slightly.] I'm not surprised, though. It's a tough spot to be in.
[Just because he thinks it was dumb for Lavi and Uriel to essentially sacrifice themselves, it doesn't mean he can't see their logic.]
[So much for being stuck with the boss, huh? Childe doesn't say that, but he does smile a little.]
She doesn't seem like the type to let you get caught anyway. I have a feeling she'd redirect if she suspected anything. [Not necessarily out of altruism, just because, from everything he's observed and what he saw this week, Harrow seems kind of possessive,,]
They're about as safe as we are. They also don't have the same chance of making it out of hell as we do.
Even if that ends up being a lie, I'm not going to sell someone out on the chance that it's not true. [she doesn't think she'd be able to live with that.]
[He doesn't necessarly believe they're safe over there either, to be fair; he just has less faith in this side than she does, and more willingness to be ruthless about it, if it came down to it.]

You're the most aloof motherfucker I've ever met. [this is fond, somehow.] -- Wait, really? You didn't vote for her?
no subject

no subject
never mind that she didn't vote for lavi last week]
... Fair. [...] I guess I did because it felt stupid to go to all the work of finding her out only to go, well, anyway.
no subject
No jk. He sighs, but it's not disappointment in her or anything like that--just general exasperation at the whole situation.]
It's what she asked for, after all. I doubt she would've been any happier if someone else had gotten the majority.
[Lavi would've been upset too, he thinks, but that's why he never claimed to be doing it for their sakes.]
no subject
literally she just lays on the floor goodbye]
You wouldn't ask people to vote for you, would you.

I'd say I can't believe you're bragging about being a competent would-be murderer but I can. [she says dryly.] ... I don't know what I'd do.

AND LOOK... sometimes you're just like this.]

I couldn't leave Harrow here. [so. maybe she does know what she'd do.]

Probably, which is also stupid. [she's not sure she could deal with someone getting scapegoated for her...]
no subject
You think so?
no subject
There's no winning, there. Either I go or someone who didn't do anything gets punted to the double-afterlife. I don't like either of those options.
no subject
Childe hums, though, thinking.]
You don't believe they're safe over there?
