[ sometime after the execution and katara is finished with tending to nino, she'll look around the island. there are a few people she'd like to see after the mess that was their first weekend here.

she spots one of them soon enough. katara approaches akira, her hands folded in front of her. ]

... Hey. I wanted to apologize to you again for the trial. You've just went through... a lot.

Even if they were telling the truth about that being the only time they'll interfere like that [ she doesn't sound like she completely believes that ] that doesn't mean they still won't help whoever decides to kill. No matter what happens, they're our number one enemies here.

[jokered]

[he nods.]

They still have a hand in everything. I don't... really think that many people would just play along with their stupid rules if they weren't forcing it somehow.

[his feeling of them being enemies is probably even more personal, but it's fine.]

[seaclipsed]

I don't think so either. Everyone has been really... helpful so far. We didn't have to try to solve our problems together like this, even after we found out what the game was about.

[ katara prefers to try seeing the good in people before the bad. sure, some of the people they're with have made it obvious that they do not care, but... ]

[jokered]

Yeah. I think most of the people here have the right idea. We all want to get through this alive and go home.

[there are definitely some people he doesn't trust, but he doesn't keep his focus on that for the time being.]

It's easier to do that working together than turning on each other.

[seaclipsed]

Right... once everyone really starts fighting is when things will go downhill. We won't really be able to solve anything that happens if we're only counting on ourselves.

[ who are you going to get information from then?? the chiefs? nah. ]

[jokered]

Let's try to avoid that as long as we can. We'll have to trust each other a little more—it's going to get tough. But... we can't count on them—the Chiefs.

[they can only count on each other, as a group, to figure out the answers they need.]

[seaclipsed]

Even if we could, I wouldn't want to. Not after... all of this.

[ katara, while friendly, is also bitter and holds grudges. ]

[jokered]

You're preaching to the choir here.

[just sayin'. the chiefs attacked him personally here.]
