Yeah, I do. Temper your expectations, it's not the most amazing thing ever. Wait here.
[Erin walks away, and returns minutes later, dragging behind her a sword as long as her arm, very wide and sharp-looking, with a black hilt, and with a pentagram etched on the side of the blade. It looks gnarly!]
Pretty much. Haven't you heard about witch hunting? In times of stress, people don't need much to suspect others of something bad. Just that little mark could have been enough.
[And this is as stressful as it gets, so she's sure she'd have been suspected]
Those ones? Oh. Right. [Truthfully Erin hadn't even given them any thought. She's completely used to entities and people like those two, so she didn't even think of them as odd] I guess that's not a surprising answer to get. Kinda expected to hear Laudna added there. She really spooked me, first thing. She got enjoyment out of it.
[She can imagine that making a few uneasy enough to consider her suspicious!]
I dunno about that when it's for the others...Karlach only has to say a word to make herself look less suspicious. Hard to be intimidated by someone whose first move is talk about underwear.
...isn't taking the coffins out of there an option? I doubt any sane person would miss having them around -- and Karlach said she's good at breaking stuff. She could get them out.
[The coffins probably would blip back into the mortuary or something because that's a big modification to the setting, oh well]

So you have your demon sword with you now, right?

The question makes Erin sigh]
Yeah, I do. Temper your expectations, it's not the most amazing thing ever. Wait here.
[Erin walks away, and returns minutes later, dragging behind her a sword as long as her arm, very wide and sharp-looking, with a black hilt, and with a pentagram etched on the side of the blade. It looks gnarly!]
Tada.
no subject
You're right. It isn't that amazing, but it's still a sword.
no subject
Told you.
[She plunges it down onto the soil]
I should feel lucky those four horsemen appeared to welcome us all. If they hadn't, maybe me having a demonic sword would have made people wary of me.
[Thanks to those four existing it's clear Erin has nothing to do with the current situation. She's safe]
no subject
Why do you think we would have suspected you? Just because your sword's got a pentagram?
no subject

[ They have a sapient dog. ]
no subject
Who comes first to mind when it's about suspicious people? Go on.
[She's curious what's his opinion! Anyone stood out, pal?]

[ ... ]
That is hilarious, though. Why did she do that?
no subject
Probably best for the sanity not to delve into it.
no subject
[ The enigma part adds to that. ]
no subject
[Erin finds some level of attraction, physically speaking there]
Did you get your nickname from her already? Apparently I'm Sassy.
no subject
[ But circling back. ]
So you think she's hot?
no subject
[Not what he meant, Erin, don't play dumb about what you said]
no subject
[ they can toe vague. ]
no subject
[Erin has a feeling she wouldn't be against it per se, were Karlach asked, but Erin will sooner be dead and buried than asking for a hug from anyone]
no subject
[ So! A shitter! ]
no subject
[Ew, don't mess with things in the mortuary, guys, unless strictly necessary]

[ It is them... They are keeping the coffins in. ]
