[ and then, later: ]

Can I ask you for an unbiased rundown of what's going on with Saber? Or less biased than I'd be getting from anyone else, at least?

[powerhungry]

With regard to his firing from the Pink Slip? Or something else?

[macrosmatic]

Yes, that, mostly
I know some about what happened during the game, but since I wasn't there, it's hard to get the whole picture

[powerhungry]

[ It's delicate territory when most still smart over what happened (and when their crew have made their allegiance very evident), and so, before launching into anything else: ]

May I ask what you've already heard?

[macrosmatic]

I know he killed as part of the game, and I know he killed someone outside of the game as well

[powerhungry]

He killed two people outside of the game, i.e. without being compelled to. Adrian, and Sarah, the latter of whom has since disappeared.

He didn't manage to kill anyone in the game, but he made an attempt on Jake's life. Unlike the other kills, which were determined to be quick, his suggested intentionally drawing it out. Enjoying it.

After he was caught, he was beheaded. His head was delivered to Ani.

Those are the broad strokes.

[ dammit, saber ]

Ah. So it was even worse than I thought

I wish I could say any of it's a surprise

[powerhungry]

Yet you all left the Slip along with him.

[ Unspoken: why? ]

[macrosmatic]

I felt like people would probably group us together whether we did it ourselves or not, so I might as well make it a deliberate choice
I can't speak for the others, though

[powerhungry]

Frankly, I don't think they would have if you hadn't all followed him out.

[ But it's too late to do anything about that, now. ]

If you'll forgive the unsolicited opinion.
