...?

[Okay, Sans, you've got his full attention. He tears his gaze away from Hanyuu's body to instead look toward the short skeleton who absolutely knows how fire works.]

What do you mean...?

[thebonezone]

saturday night, after the execution, i overheard a conversation with miata and the announcer lady. [...she has a name, but does sans care? no.] it sounded like a lover's spat, mostly. but the important part is they talked about something happening this week, and not being able to protect her from "them"... inaba an' some others found miata's talisman in the fire, so that explains the protection bit. but i don't think she was talking about protecting her from us.

[hinata, you can't appreciate this, but it is taking everything sans has to be this straightforward. everything.]

...they also talked about the game coming to a close. they'd told us before there'd only be seven left when this was over, right? i'm pretty sure they're just making certain that happens this week.

...Katerina?

[Wtf. wtf??

Hinata's quiet for a long few seconds, clearly mulling over what Sans had said. He appreciates him being straightforward, really! He does. Gold star for you, skelebro.

He crouches down as if a closer viewing angle might reveal any other wounds, or even any evidence on the scene, but as far as he can tell, there's... nothing? Wtf. Where is the evidence.]

You don't think... that woman who killed Undyne and Poland's hostage is just killing people indiscriminately now...?

[thebonezone]

yeah. her... and maybe the rest of them.

[her of course being... the sins.]

i think we saw our last trial against one another.

[hopefragment]

...I hope that's true. I just...

[There's a stinging in the back of his eyes, but when he raises a hand to wipe away tears, there's nothing.]

Every week, I knew we were going to go through the same shit, but maybe... if we could all understand each other, get close enough together, we'd be able to put an end to it. But if people like that, [ridiculously overpowered sins ugh] are just... going to start killing us themselves?

[thebonezone]

[he sighs, because he gets it, hinata. he totally gets it.]

...yeah. we're pretty boned.

[oh my god now is not the time]

[hopefragment]

[Oh my god Sans.

Hinata just huffs a humorless laugh and shakes his head.]

...We'll figure something out, Sans. I have to believe in that. I... after all this, we can't just give up. There's... there's got to be something. I just have to figure it out.

[Well good luck with that, Skills: None.]

[thebonezone]

you're not alone, kid. don't gotta shoulder that whole mystery by yourself.

[said sans the hypocritical skeleton.]

even if you've gotten pretty good at the whole shtick.
