[ It's not like he's participated in games just like this or anything -- but rather more a seemingly permanent nihilistic view that permeates him at times. Gods, and individuals given god-like positions, are often cruel, and that was the way of the world. ]
Who knows... it's too early to say. But if "death" is a mechanic, then I suspect something will happen soon enough -- after all, it seems too significant a notion to be ignored.
I suspect someone will go missing or turn up dead soon.
How pessimistic. People have to at least be given a real incentive to kill first, don't you think? We're all locked in here, surely it would be hard to get away with murder.
Our "wishes" are a form of incentive, aren't they? Though mine isn't something to kill a man over, I can't say the same for everyone else. And if the notion of not being able to get said "wish" is a playing factor...
...But then there must be a risk, or else one person could murder everyone else and walk away.
Mm, that's true, but as of right now no one has actually said there's a lose condition besides choosing not to indulge. It's just our assumption that there might be.
[ Paranoia bonding!!! The worst form of bonding. At least they're both extremely subtle / mild about said business paranoia. ]
I suppose not. That would be the best outcome, if everyone had the potential to get whatever it is they wanted...

[Maybe other people aren't so paranoid.]

It almost looks like a sword... Haha, they are quite ominous, aren't they?
[Still;]
I suppose all we can do now is speculate, though.

Would you like to strike a deal, Mr. Fukuda? Of the informational exchange variety.
no subject
What are you proposing, exactly?
no subject
Two pairs of eyes are better than one, and better that there's less to be surprised by, wouldn't you agree?
no subject
I don't mind working together. I don't know how much help I'll be, though.

[ Great! He nods, both to himself and to Fukuda. This arrangement works for him. ]
Suppose we'll have another chat later, maybe after the weekend to see what else we've learned. Until then, I'll be seeing you around.
no subject
Aah. Hopefully we'll have had some sort of contact with the people in charge here.
