So no revenge story... Although it didn't look like she was very bloody, so it seems like her killer took more care into getting rid of her. [ a beat ] I guess if you wanted revenge, you wouldn't have taken the time to bury her, either.
[ this is probably where he'd do a bro nudge or something but malik is weird about touching and also behaving like a normal human so he just stands there awkwardly instead ]

[ he's noticing that confusion but we'll come back to that in a second. ]

Maybe? I wouldn't really know. I mean, killing is killing? I don't know how I would...well. Um. I wouldn't think too much about that stuff.

[ just. completely disregarding mandi's feelings on the topic. ]

I mean, I could. I can wield the sword like an actual sword. But if she didn't look bloody then I guess that rules some forms of death out.
We'll see tomorrow, I suppose.
no subject
Maybe she died because of Beau? Hehehehehehehehe-- Well, tomorrow. We'll find out tomorrow.
no subject
Malik, you're making the weird noise again.

wait he can't talk now. give him a second. ]
...Right. Well. I should probably ice my head, Beau punched me pretty hard... I'll see you tomorrow.

[hold on]
She did what?

[ added, bitterly: ] She's never liked me, so, she took her chance when no one else was around.
no subject
Huh. So she went and just...did that? Out of the blue? [He seems to be struggling to understand.] More reason for you to get behind me, I guess.
no subject
She was upset, I guess, and wanted to take it out on me.
I may take you up on your offer... But you better make sure Lalli is nearby.

[He says it like a foreign word.]
Okay. I will. Stick by me.

Take care not to antagonize Beau in the meantime.
no subject
I sure will. It might be hard since I don't know what her anger looks like...but I'll do my best for you.
