[AT SOME POINT after the fuckin potluck from hell they all had, Dahut is just hopping after Viktor... He reaches out to give his lil sleeve a gentle tug!]
Do you have a moment, monsieur? I was wondering... Have you talked to Callisto yet? Second Callisto.
[ANNOYING BEING SOFT FOR DAHUT!!!! This is so funny. Anyway Dahut's still holding the little pinch of fabric between his thumb and forefinger, and his already slightly furrowed brow furrows a little further at the mention of fucking laser cannons he hates it here so goddamn bad.
ANYWAY.]
If you talk to him, be careful, okay...? I think he's pretty dangerous, and he doesn't like humans.
[THAT'S A VERY BAD CAT BUT ALSO NO ONE HERE NEEDS TO BE GETTING THEIR STINKY LIL PAWS ON LASER CANNONS!!!!!
He just nods at that though, his hand finally dropping away.]
Humans or things that can be identified as human adjacent, I think... And he's quick to act violently. Even if it's just a dream, don't get yourself hurt, okay?
That's...the complete opposite of Vash. Doesn't anyone... notice? The other executive crew, I mean... Though... I guess their perception could be tampered with.
[He looks a bit too resolute, if honest. OH NO.]
Wouldn't hurt to try to see what he might say to a dying human.
He's Monsieur Vash's older brother. [HELP!! But also:] I think they all believe that Callisto has always been the same, so it's probably a matter of memory tampering...
[THIS IS NOT THE POINT OF HIS WARNING THOUGH HE FUCKING HATES IT HERE. VIKTOR!!! His lips press together in a thin and worried line and he looks at sweet Viktor like this.]
...Well, it's not like I can stop you. And it is just a dream, in the end... Not even death sticks. [THEY'RE ALREADY DEAD.] Just be as careful as you can, okay? I'll tell you the little I learned so you can go in a bit more prepared.
Mm. [HE JUST NODS. AND THEN KEEPS GOING. It's fine... also help THE INFO DOC. i typed dog first.]
He's here to look for Monsieur Vash, supposedly, so our theory that Monsieur Vash was intentionally replaced might be wrong. I think we might be incorrect about the level of refinement of the nanites, too, but obviously I won't rule that out until we can check. [HE'S WARY ABOUT TRUSTING CALLISTO TWO FOR OBVIOUS REASONS.]
That said... This is just a hunch, but I think he would kill everyone on the ship if it meant Monsieur Vash could be retrieved safely. So I think for now, it's best to be cautious in our approach... I would advise against sharing too much about Monsieur Vash until we know a little more about Callisto Two, but I'd also advise against doing anything that might make Callisto Two overly-angry. He has a rash temper and he lashes out without much prompting. I told him we'd keep an eye out for Monsieur Vash's body, but that's all I personally felt comfortable sharing... He makes me feel uneasy.
[Well, now I gotta do a fucking audience with MILLIONS FUCKING KNIVES BECAUSE OF YOUR STUPID ASS. HATE IT HERE.
Time to get destroyed immediately. ]
...I understand.
[He is stupid, but not, like, STUPID about certain things. As it is, he strangely does not feel any real fear about speaking to the guy, racism or not. Apprehensive, a little.]
I won't say anything. I'll see if he tells me much more than to go die. Can't be much worse than talking to Scien.
[HAHAHAHAHA AAAAA I FUCKING DID THIS TO YOUUUUU THIS IS SO FUNNY.
He will just reach out and very lightly tap Viktor's hand after the thanks, nodding once. But then, in a bit of a solemn tone:]
Dying is scary no matter where it happens, and he has a pretty sharp eye. [So it will be... a Rough Conversation, he's pretty sure. Maybe Viktor will be okay, though!]
I'll make you something tasty for when you come back, okay?
[STOP HE'S THE ONE WHO LISTENED TO DAHUT SAY "HEY MAYBE AVOID THIS VIOLENT MAN WHO HATES HUMANS" AND WENT "TIME FOR ME TO GO MEET ME SOME OF THAT".]
I'll have one ready, though I don't think you'll retain injuries once you're back here... [There's an unspoken "maybe" there. ALSO HELP. Lucien just like my man i'm just a lil lad (blows things up with a laser cannon).]
But that's true, too; you are in a dream. I think you could pull yourself out before he can do anything to hurt you, if you really felt like you needed to.

The impersonating Callisto? No, I haven't yet... I know Lucien said he spoke to them. That's how he found out there were laser cannons on the ship.

[HE DOES A SMALL DOUBLE-TAKE.]
He's... what?!
[pretends to be as surprised oocly but i already could tell wish i could go back]
If he hates humans, why hasn't he destroyed almost everyone on the ship yet?

You might want to have a med kit prepared, too.
[Well, THIS explains why Lucien got along with this Callisto, he thinks. BEING INHUMAN.]
I'll try to... keep from setting him off, if I can. When in doubt... um, retreat?

no subject
I'll keep that in mind. Hopefully, he doesn't have the urge to kill the nearest human.
no subject
[Like he comes off as unfriendly but definitely not like someone who would stab a man for fun and profit?? Which is what Dahut is now assigning him.]
As long as you don't rile him up, it should be fine. Please do your best, monsieur...
