I think you're not the only one. Everybody's really starting to feel it now. We're getting lost and frustrated that this keeps happening without answers. [ he sounds pretty annoyed himself, too. ]
I wish we didn't have two cases to solve. Maybe then we could have come up with a better solution. I mean the better case would be not killing people at all, but I'm losing hope on that one.
Do you think the festival even matters? [ this is a sincere question. ] Like...what if we're really just running right into a trap by playing with these rules leading up to it?
It probably doesn't but it's an end date. I never really understood why some people in Dalsnes count the days until their units' expeditions end but now I'm beginning to get it.
[Sigrun, to keep her hands busy, adjusts her gloves like she's getting ready to spring into some sort of action time]
Besides, whatever happens there happens. Gotta deal with it and get through that anyway, trap or not.
[Mostly because what option is there other than at the very least making an effort to win. Still, despite what is at stake, attacking or killing the other teams is a line she doesn't want to cross]
It's still possible that we can end this early. It's more about understanding the rules and what they actually want from us. Nobody's really explained the festival and why it's happening. Maybe that's something else I'll ask the leaders myself.
[ ...but he hums to that. ]
And how far would you be willing to go to get through the trap?
All the way in. Wouldn't be the first time I go into danger on purpose.
[She shrugs]
Sure would be great if before anything I knew about the kinda trap--
[If you know absolutely nothing, you die. Sigrun is eager to get into fights and hunt and do so many things, but things go well because she makes her due preparation, in addition to good improvisation.
.....
But on the other hand, the situation here is getting out of hand and there's no time for dilly-dallying. If an opportunity appears, there's not going to be any time for really thinking too much, or else the opportunity might vanish.
Even if the situation became a matter of life or death, Sigrun? That's what I mean here. That's the trap we're currently in, and I don't anticipate this getting much better.
So you would take someone else's life here if there wasn't a choice? If that was something we had to do? [ he is thinking of the notes they've received from their adventures. ]
...I already was involved in something like that. While I was gone I almost was made to kill Axel.
Saya and I didn't kill him but I was ready to do it in her place if we hadn't made everything go in another direction.
[She had a knife and all hidden away but ready, having tackled Axel and captured him. Fortunately the CYOA ended without having to murder Axel, but...yeah, she was ready]
Yeah, I would if I knew for sure that's what it'd take.
[ he's not sure that's the same thing, but he figures it's close enough and finds that to be a satisfactory sort of answer. ]
These adventures they keep sending people on really like to plant new ideas in our heads and keep us distracted from what's happening. [ that's just a comment. ] But okay. I'd like to avoid that possibility, but...it's good to know. I'd rather we all be on the same page knowing what it might come to instead of being caught by surprise later.

[Well, although since the team currently isn't really on first place, perhaps she shouldn't wish it to arrive sooner.
But yeah, sure says a lot someone is eager to return to the post-apocalyptic horror world than staying in this city]

Nevermind, I'd go in all the way no matter what.
