Fuda # 2 (Dial 1 to deny everything, dial 2 to dig yourself deeper.)

[I should have known better than to fix the frying pan with duct tape before using it. Those pancakes really didn't taste good. Not even with syrup. ...Hisoka looks thoughtful today. Maybe he's daydreaming. I wish I knew--

T-there's got to be a way for this not to be readable. Is it possible to lie when it records this? Testing. My eyes are blu...rple. B- bl-p--ewwwple. Purple. :/

Maybe if I count sheep for the rest of my days I'll be safe. One sheep, two sheep, three...]

Hijiri, I'm going to plant flowers today! So if there's anything you and Duo want under your windows, let me know. And sorry about the mess in the kitchen, I'll try to clean it up later, and get a new frying pan. The old one practically fell apart.

When people come back, there's something missing from them.

I'm preparing for the worst.

Does that mean he can speak, usually?

He used to.

There's no way for him to regain his voice?

There's someone here who says he can reverse death penalties, but I wouldn't trust him enough to suggest it as an option.

If he could, shouldn't Sheik have asked him already?

He's connected to our captors. If it were me, I'd rather keep the penalty.

Does anyone know why he's helping?

Well. I don't have one.

He keeps his motives to himself, but some of the others who've made their presence known to us regard him as an eccentric. They seem to find him brilliant and let him have his hobbies.

...As stunning a strategy as I'd expected.

So he's like Watari with a budget. ...And less sugar.

I think we should focus on what to do not to scare our housemates, but keep them safe.

Something like that.

How would you suggest we go about doing that?

That's not as comforting a thought as I thought it would be.

Codewords.

So you understand why some people choose not to seek his services.

What would they accomplish?

...As much as I'd like to keep all cards on the table, there are certain subjects about his history that might be unpleasant to talk to housemates about. And I'd really not want them to catch his name from one of us and think he's a friend.

That's the trouble with talking to people in general.

We should let them know what he looks like, if nothing else. Do you have any suggestions that won't make me worry to death?

But at the same time, telling them anything could just make them want to play hero. They don't know what they'd be getting into. ...You worry about everything. It's a failing of yours.

Normally I'd agree, but it's too risky not to tell them. Look at Duo and Hijiri, for example. All Muraki would have to do would be to ask if anyone knew where the shinigami lived, and he'd find them. Maybe we should just tell them his blood is green acid, so don't open the door for him.

I'm more concerned about the things he would do to others. We aren't the most powerful people here. He could easily attach himself to unsuspecting people. Plenty of them are dumb enough to believe anything they're told.

That's not their fault. He's good at manipulating people.

So obviously, keeping an eye on him would be ideal.

....If you did manage to kill him temporarily, do you think that might release you from the curse?

A quiet eye. He'd probably find a way to turn any warnings to his advantage.

[The second bit startles him, though.] I doubt I'd be so fortunate.

I'd not be surprised if he chose to make his story into "a doctor, haunted by two otherworldly beings for defying death".

But if you were?

...It wouldn't be entirely off the mark. I've gotten that reaction before.

It's stupid to fantasize about something that probably won't happen.

From whom?

No. It's human.
