[He reads through it, and it definitely gives him a better idea of the situation.]
Okay, so like... Only one person on the list needs to get taken out, for the person who killed them to get a weapon.
[Which makes what he presumes she's suggesting more likely to succeed. Chris hands the phone back, nodding.]
Yeah, getting your hands on one as early as possible's um, definitely the best idea. I'm... I mean, I'm not like, hype about the whole thing, but it makes sense, though I think we should talk to Hope first and get him on board with the plan. Maybe he can like, expedite the resurrection thing, and he'll know you're going to bring him a weapon and not like, be planning on trying to kill him with it.
[ she glances at the post again. and scrolls ahead to see the other posts Chris mentioned. stupid of them to paint a target on themselves, she thinks. ]
That's a good idea. I don't want to do it if you're not going to come back quickly. [ or at all... ] We can't let some of those people to be the only ones with god killing weapons. They'd actually do it. I have to get one somehow.
[ her brow furrows. ] I could try to kill one of them after they get it. But if it kills a god imagine what it would do to me?
Yeah, let's uh, avoid you having to fight anyone else for their god-killing super weapon.
[He's finished the coffee and gestures toward a mug, obviously asking if he wants some coffee herself.]
Sounds like the first thing to do is to talk to Hope, then. See what's possible and if he's down with the idea, and if it'd actually be useful to get him one of the weapons in the first place.
[ she nods to his offer. coffee is a good choice for people who are already feeling anxious, right? ]
And that way there's no surprises. [ she sighs. okay, she can work with that. ] In the meantime, I'll try to look like I'm making an effort to follow Null orders.
[Totally. He makes her a cup the same way he does his, which involves some sugar and creamer, and hopefully that's inoffensive.]
Cool. I'll uh, stop by Hope's temple on the way back and talk to him about the idea; I should make sure he knows what's up anyway, even though I can't show him the post. But yeah, stay uh, low and casual and all of that.
[He'll make sure the gods know Cashmere's playing undercover agent, so she just has to worry about the Null.]
I'm uh, relying on a combo of people either liking me or not wanting to piss me off with a murder attempt, carrying a gun, having a wolf, and just generally being awesome.
[So you know. Foolproof preventative planning here.]
You'd better not. [ she grins. ] I'm counting on you.
This is all building up to something big. I don't know what this place is going to be like when it's all over. [ Cashmere's normally happy to keep her head down and stay out of trouble. that doesn't seem to be an option now. ]
Well, now I really can't get killed and let you down.
[He grins too, though he goes more serious once more at her next comments.]
Yeah. And I mean, I'm not huge on things getting all chaotic and dangerous, but at the same time like... The waiting for things to go wrong was kind of just as bad. At least we're getting somewhere, for better or worse.

What about you? You've got a target on your back now, and some people are going to want to kill you for real.

[So you know. Foolproof preventative planning here.]

Well, be careful. Some of these people are crazy. [ understatement. ] They'll do anything to try and get out of here.
