I'm gonna Kill Him (Moon 15, Aftdeck, Afternoon, Open)

[Volsung]

Dageki nodded. "Good. I especially don't wanna die here." The ashigaru looked down at his feet for several, considering the offer before he looked up again, staring O-Washi in the eyes. "No need to get fancy, Isawa-sama. Just the same way you'd execute any peasant." There was a moment of tension that passed through the man. The feeling that he knew this was wrong and that he felt O-Washi felt the same way.

Then he looked down again. "Good. Arigato, Isawa-gunso. She ain't the seadog I am."

Dageki was quiet for several long seconds before he spoke up again. "There was somethin' else. Durin' the fight. Felt like somethin' was tryin' to get into my head. I don't know what it was. Might 'o been some evil spirit tryin to get in my head or maybe one of them shugenjas panicked and tried castin' something on me. I didn't see nothin' though. But I felt it, it happened."

[Isawa O-Washi]

"Let's hope it doesn't come to it. Hopefully since it was Daidoji-san that was actually attacked and he's freed you from any blame, it'll only be a beating over the insult." O-washi grimaced. "I won't hold back there, for your own good, but I'll patch you up well after and I'll make sure you're not ruined for the duty you've always been so good at doing."

The news of outside forces had the big gunso looking uneasily over the rail to the dark twisted waters. "I see. Captain needs to know that. If it was one of the dark spirits we'll have to test you and make sure it didn't corrupt you but if you had one of those whispering in your ear, that explains why you went that far."

[Volsung]

Dageki nodded. "Good, I don't want you holdin' back." Now that the shock of the experience was over, Dageki was starting to slip into his usual self again.

At the idea that one of those spirits might have affected him, he kept quiet for a long time again. "Might've. I ain't no specialist on 'em though."

[Rixy]

"Easy way to check, once we're clear." O-washi tapped his scrolls. "Flash you with Jade. As long as you don't react, well, we can chalk it up to one of the louder spirits trapped here getting to you through your anger for your sister."

Sighing, he looked toward the Captain's cabin.

"Alright, then. Let's go report. Better to know than to wonder."

[Volsung]

Dageki nodded to O-Washi, falling in behind the Isawa with Furaito behind him. She had a spear in hand, as much to keep others from approaching Dageki as to keep Dageki in line.

The Trio made their way silently to the Captain.
