REJOICE DRAGON SYS FRAYED MARY in that order

Rejoice because he is just a huge murderous asshole and butchery right away is what the fuck. Dragon because he is the second-biggest threat, she thinks, after Rejoice, because at least Dragon's never fucked up anyone before a game. Also, most powerful that she knows of. Sys she ranks in power behind Dragon but he's also a huge motherfucker so fuck him.

Frayed is an interesting case because while she missed Frayed's trauma game, she heard about how it was set up after the fact, and that mashes basically all of the primal fears from her world. The only way it could have been worse if water was involved. If she was able to think clearly about it she would probably see if Frayed could be convinced to just not run trauma games anymore, since they've also run normal ones, but the trauma one just mashes all of those NOPE buttons.

Mary is another special case because while she really, really wants to shank her in her stupid face, she isn't sure what Mary's relationship with the setting is. It's unique, she knows. But she isn't sure if murdering Mary would fuck up, for example, everyone's ability to go home. And since Mary seems to enforce the rules to the other portraits, Cleo is aware that murdering her could have some nasty consequences. So basically Mary is on the list with a note of "only applies if consequence-free".

What is Kuroko's take on the portraits at the moment?

[unexpressive]

Kuroko feels pretty..... EH about portraits, he knows some are dangerous but not all of them are! Not to say he trusts any of them, and he fully expects that one day, even the least dangerous ones (Like Clover, Mary) will run a trauma game. He feels really frustrated that he can't give a punch to the face to any of them, but at the same time, they also give memories, so he has to let them do what they want in order for him and everyone else to get home. he's adopted a learned helplessness here, since the last time anything happened to a portrait, that portrait tried to kill everyone and then got killed itself, and... he doesn't really want to see any of the portraits die, because it seems that even if the teams die, they come back, whereas the portraits seem to permadie and that really doesn't settle well with him. (he's probably one of the only people in the entirety of decollage who don't want teams or portraits to die hurr hurr) he just wants them to stop running those kinds of games and also get them home..

how is paru handling the whole sage was killed thing rn, and also do you ever intend to have her go into a trauma game of any kind, psychological included

Very, very badly. She is incredibly shaken up by the whole... well, everything. The fact that it was Canary was even worse. She's basically just clinging on to the fact that Duchess wasn't there as a lifeline of OKAY AND NOW THIS WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN :) :) :). If she had been there herself, I doubt even this would be enough.

I do eventually! The main problem is right now, she barely trusts anyone, and if she gets killed in this state, she's... basically going to go "I WAS RIGHT NOT TO TRUST ANYONE" and never going to trust anyone ever. Once she's built up sufficient trust with Sage, I intend to start throwing her in there, though. Not necessarily maiming/dying games, because I find those honestly pretty goddamn boring? But psychological ones, absolutely.

How is Kuroko handling the fact that he died?
