[Like yesterday, they end up running into each other in the Private Study after everything has gone to absolute shit. This time, it's Connor who greets her as he walks into the room, pausing before offering her a small nod.]
I mean... I don't think Justice would lie, and he mentioned it at the end of the trial. I haven't checked with Piety, Sincerity, or Cunning to see if it's true, though.
If that's the case, what are your recommendations for offerings? I've been given some suggestions, but they are sometimes... [A beat, as he decides what word is most inappropriate.] Unclear.
[Instructions unclear. May or may not have been this close to offending a god.]
Indulgence is the hardest. I grabbed a bottle of nice wine from the parlor and put it in the altar, though, and he liked that. So, like, really nice food or drinks for him. Ambition... The times I've talked to her, I've just prayed, not given her anything. But she's usually in the beauty salon, so maybe try nail polish or something like that? I've only prayed for Sincerity, too, but I've always met with them in the costume hall. I bet they'd like some clothes.

week two, saturday.
Good evening, Zoe.
[Everything happened so much.]

[Her voice is thick with irony, but she sighs, running a hand over her face.]
There's nothing good about this evening, Connor.
no subject
[It sucks and it's kind of making him feel... something. Something bad? Not that he'd acknowledge it, but.]
I apologize. I didn't mean to offend you.
no subject
[She sighs, but then she turns to face him.]
Maybe next week it'll be... better.
[Or at least less deadly. Yikes.]
no subject
[Four dead. The guilty parties among the victims. It's... He doesn't have his hopes up for next week.]
But the precedent these past two weeks have set is... unfortunate. It's likely that things will only continue to escalate.
no subject
[Her hope would be that nobody dies, but...]
no subject
[A mood.]

no subject
[So, yeah. There's no way.].
no subject
[Ugh.]
But apparently only one of them meant to kill someone, so... There's that, not that it means much.
no subject
[But now that she mentions that... He tilts his head slightly.]
Have you already confirmed this information with the gods?

Well, it depends what god you want to talk to. Are there any you want to chat with?
no subject
Yes. I have yet to gain an audience with Ambition, Indulgence and Sincerity.

I see. Thank you for your recommendations, Zoe. I will let you know if I'm successful the next time I request an audience with these gods.
