[Spike walks into his room, raises his eyebrows at his new roommate.]
Alright, could be worse I guess.

You know that poncy fellow with the long name? Him. He moved out pretty much immediately.
You?
You?
Oh, Roche?
[ yeah, he does have a long name, huh? and he is pretty poncy. ]
Master Revvy.
[ revali would kill him if he heard that ]
We got along well, I think. [ but flat might say that about anyone. ] Are we going to share the bed or are we going to have to fight for it, by the way?

Got it in one. Milord Cockroach. Revvy's the blue chicken, right?
[He just shrugs.]
I'm not shy about sharing. Might kick you off if I want the space though. We'll see. Probably won't kill you over it like our dearly depearted Rong did though.
[He just shrugs.]

I thought about calling him cockroach too!
[ wow, this is the worst! he even nods at the 'blue chicken' comment, not correcting him. ]
Well, I think communication is a pivotal part of society, so I don't mind giving you the bed when you need it to yourself. Just leave a sock on the door and I'll know.
[ the qi rong comment does give him some pause, as he thinks. ]
Do you think what happened on Thursday night's gonna happen again?

Well, I appreciate the consideration. [He smiles. At least this kid's not so tightly wound that mentioning the word "sexually frustrated" will set him off. Big improvement on lamb shanks.
To his question, he raises an eyebrow.] I mean, yeah, probably. At least two people have threatened to kill me in half as many weeks. And it's not like leg muncher was wrong about the fact that he's not the only violent maniac here, people did take the chance to kick the ever-eating shit out of him.
Which is funny and all but does indicate that violence isn't really off the table for our merry band.

You said it.
I'm guessing it was that Sheba girl and the angry little girl with the stick. But who knows, really. I don't think anyone was particularly invested in the poor sod that died and had his leg turned into beef roast but the little blonde girl? Yeah, he fucked up there.

That was pretty dumb of him. But we almost fell for it too, didn't we? If it weren't for Mister Sholmes and and Xie Lian...
[ he sighs. oh well. ]
I think he should have just confessed to it, you know? Like from the start. I mean, everyone has different eating habits, but making someone else take the blame is probably wrong.
[ he can excuse the cannibalism, but he draws the line at the little girl blaming. ]

[He actually laughs at that.]
Speak for yourself! I never fell for that one minute, always seemed a little ridiculous. Second I heard cannibalism I knew it was the creepy exsanguinating mold eater. Guy just screams deranged freak. No class at all these days.
[He shrugs, sliding against the wall and sitting down.]
...You know he could've just asked the Watchers, right? It's what I did for blood. He didn't do it for food, else he'd have taken one of the stray kids, I reckon. The Watchers have ways to make all the people on their team cooperate with their little competition. Wouldn't surprise me if one of the Temporals kicked the slaughter off intentionally.

You know, you're right. I met a Dead Apostle that was kind of crazy like him. But he was crazy for some other reason--a girl, I think? He was really in love with her and wanted to kill us all to make her despair or something like that. [ a beat. ] Oh, sorry, Dead Apostles are what we mages call vampires.
[ jester.....
but what he says makes him perk up. ]
So you just asked the Watchers for blood and they gave it to you? That's convenient! [ but... ] What makes you think it was one of the Temporals?

He just stares like this for a hot ten seconds at that.]

Err, well, he was a Temporal, wasn't he? They're the ones that'd have motives for him.
We're here to end a conflict. How else are conflicts settled? A kiss on the cheek? Nah, there's only one outcome to this sort of thing. Suriel and the dumb one might not get that but I reckon Baraqiel does.
I'm not asking them to kiss each other on the cheek, I'm saying that there should be an open conversation! It seems like people don't even know what each side wants. That would be a big help, y'know.
[ he crosses his arms. ]
Instead, we're being extremely inefficient, and nothing's going to get solved correctly.

You said it. Still, seems like nobody really knows much. And we're all being intentionally left in the dark.

Unless there's someone else just pretending to be alive, yeah.
[He's not particularly broken up about that. He was an idiot. Idiots always die quick.]
Did you care for him much?

Aren't you technically doing that?
[ being undead and all. ]
Hm...um... [ that's a hard question. he skips it. ] I mean, people kind of expected someone to die, right? It could have been anyone. [ and that's that. ] Do you think he was a Temporal or a Celestial?

Nine? Hmmm. There's not really been anything to indicate any inherent difference between the two. We got... what, two confirmations?
If I had to hazard a guess though...
I'd say he's probably Temporal. Celestial's gotta retaliate somehow, y'know?
