... I can't say a lot. Contract agreement. [ And whatever vagueness The Witch gives them, but, this is primarily it. ] But I don't want you to interfere. He might do worse to you, since he's a man of his word.
[ So at least no one else will be involved. Just like Siffrin asked. No one else, only them, only them and... them.

Thanks for the offer, though. Um. I do appreciate it.
Week 2, Saturday
He steps into the promenade, looking around for the person he's been worrying about most of the morning.]

Hi.
no subject
Looks kinda boring in here. Want some company for a bit?
no subject
Oh! That's nice of him. Siffrin will pat the spot beside them. ]
I think I've memorized everyone's profiles at this point. That's how boring it is in here.
no subject
[He moves to sit next to them.]

(You should've asked The Witch for some. It's the least he could do.
... No, that exception was good enough.) ]
You should've snuck in some for me. I can't leave. When I try, the hallway goes on forever.
[ (It
is
so
aggravating!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) ]

I can duck out and get something for you to do today, but before I do, I wanted to know something.
no subject
Shoot.
no subject
What are you planning to do tomorrow? I'm only askin' because I wanna try to help you survive it if I can.
no subject
... Why? Because it's unfair?

Last week I got this medicine that's some kinda painkiller. If you want, I can give it to you.
[Even if Siffrin dies he doesn't have to suffer through as much pain. That's Bradley's thinking at least.]
no subject
You think of how painful some of your deaths have been.
Actually,) ]
I'll take it. I've experienced some pretty painful ones before, but I don't know what to expect from The Witch's game.
no subject
Well I hope this helps make it less painful at least. What kinda entertainment do you want for the rest of the night?
no subject
Any good at cards?
no subject
Heh, you have no idea. I didn't make all of my money from bein' a bandit.
no subject
Oh, just a couple coins to start off your gambling? [ Little tease! ] I've been told I have a mean poker face. As a fair warning.
[ Just not around people they're into. But that's neither here nor there. ]
