Northwind: Are you guys done hunting Storyline?

Black: Grr. It got away. You can run, but you can't hide!!!

White: K'dela, never call that out to me, okay? It's scary.

Black: Don't worry, I won't.

Northwind: *Coughs*

Orange: *Eyes widen* Covid.

Northwind: *Indignant* Asthma, thanks very much. But that was just to get their attention. No need to blow it up, geez.

White: Well, what do you want our attention for?

Northwind: You have a question, Sky. From rosevoltaris. How did you feel when you first found out that K'dela was an Impostor?

Brown: Oh, boy.

Red: If this goes too far...

White: What have I done to warrant this response?

Red: Tenavik's partner went through the same thing. I mean, I killed both of them almost thirty minutes afterwards, but still.

Cyan: ... If you're okay with it, please don't mention killing your own kid again?

Red: Okay. That's... understandable.

Lime: It's disturbing, that's what it is. Don't tell me that you listen to your own sentences and say that they aren't disturbing.

Red: I won't, then.

Orange: My gosh...

Northwind: This is going off-topic... can we please get back on the tracks?

Blue: NEVA-

White: Sure.

Blue: ... Screw you, Sky. You're no fun.

White: *Stalling from hurt feelings*

Black: Say that one more time to his face, why don't you?

Blue: Because you're totally in LOV-

Black: *Glowering intensely*

Blue: okay i'll shut up-

White: Th-thanks K'dela...

Black: No problemo, Sky. So, what were you thinking when you found out that I was the Impostor?

White: Well, for the first second or two, I was in disbelief. I mean, you never hinted at it in any way, you never tried to make an attempt on my life and cover it up with something else, and I couldn't imagine you as the killer.

Orange: Sky, you think that about everyone.

White: Yeah, but I was really sure about this one!

Orange: *Face palms* When will you learn your lesson?

Brown: Never, I hope.

White: Umbitr's right. I don't think I'll ever learn that lesson. In any case, we were immediately attacked by Red, so there wasn't much time for the conversation of 'you're the Impostor? but how? I cannot believe it! I hate you for killing the crew' yadda yadda yadda. Not that I would have it, but some people would say that. I just couldn't believe that K'dela was it.

Red: Tenavik went through that. It wasn't pretty.

White: I can imagine. But what was mostly going through my head was disbelief, shock, confusion, and fear. The last one mostly because of something called being stabbed in a rib and then dropped to the floor.

Brown: Didn't I do a good job on that?

White: ... Which Umbitr did a great job of acting it out and healing the wound afterwards, thank you.

Black: So, that's it? All that you felt?

White: Well... I suppose I felt just the tiniest bit mad because of the fact that you could have made a more active decision to help stop the killing...

Black: Okay, that's fair. Anything else?

White: No, I don't think so. I suppose it wasn't like the thought hadn't crossed my mind in the depths of my subconscious. Maybe I even knew completely that you were the Impostor, but the thought never made its way to the surface of my mind.

Cyan: That's... disturbing.

White: Hey, the average human only uses a small percentage of their brain! It's totally possible for that to be the case.

Blue: *Quietly* And here I'll be, hoping desperately that that will never be the case.

Northwind: Blue, what are you going to do?

Blue: Rob a bank.

Northwind: DON'T YOU DARE-
