( Mutsu is unfazed, even in front of a big guy like Magnus and with two against one here. He looks directly ahead at both of them and holds up three fingers-- one for each point he makes. One, )
Last eight weeks. ( Two, ) Make sure the number of Ducks doesn't outnumber the Players. Since that's not gonna happen at this rate: ( three, ) make sure at least one Duck lives.
Those are the numbers that matter.
It's the middle of the week and it's already on a course whether we like it or not-- and I don't. ( In case his attitude right now isn't carrying that across. ) But if we end up with someone else to go after, we can let a Reaper go. So we gotta try to set next week and every week after this one 'til the end.
Get everyone on the same page as us so we can stop the extra kills... and find out who's willing to make some sacrifices.
You’re, uh, right, except on the whole just one Duck to live thing. That’s just not good odds, right? We don’t want to be around with one Reaper, hanging in the balance between someone making one dumb mistake and offing them out of some misguided attempt to do the right thing, and then suddenly we’re all fucked.
. . . Think you’re right on the having someone else to go after though. [Fuckin’ sucks though!!!! Looking up at Magnus.] If it takes the heat off the Reapers, it’s totally garbage, but it’s kind of what we have to do. At least for this week. I don’t think we can do it again. We lose too many people every friggin’ time.
[Sighing out though, tugging on the end of his braid.]
They offer players deals, right? If they kill. That’s the appeal, but it’s about, uh, making sure no one is tempted by it. If they’re willing to make us do this shit to each other, why do they think they’re going to fulfill a promise like that?
Yeah. Someone else has to go, eventually. We're not always gonna have easy choices to make. But I do think there are ways, to make it harder for someone to get away with killing. So if you know someone who's gonna try, tell us. We might be able to stop them for their own sake.

( Yeah. He sure is just going to wave his hand in the air now and smile everything away, )
We got some other people to be talking to if we want things to work out, don't - ya - think~?
