Slippery Kit

Another conversation about the game-in-progress. One of these days I'll figure out a good format to repost chats. By the way, I think the female character may end up just being called "The Agent" or "The Agent of the Queen."

Jonathan
- i kinda suspect that i want the second character to have a hand in his death
- or to ultimately be responsible
- but maybe it should end with things unclear as to whether he's actually dead
- so it's not clear who triumphs
- that makes it more interesting
- maybe Marlowe's last letter is "to be read on the event of my demise"
- and anticipates it

Shreyas
that's pretty exciting

Jonathan
- hmm, i'm thinking maybe that the female character's letters are all to various people, trying to arrange Marlowe's death
- and the other player plays all these people who keep being baffled when Marlowe slips out of their hands
- so like "sorry, mistress. we tried to poison him, but the poor sod didn't seem affected in the slightest"
- so like Kazekami Kyoko in that way
- with one person concocting plans that the other challenges
- but eventually, they get him

Shreyas
- dude
- yes
- that's um really weird
- but in a cool way
- i want to play it

Shreyas
- so is the final letter pre-written?

Jonathan
- hmm
- could be
- i wonder if play could continue even after his death
- "to make sure we got him"

Shreyas
- haha

Jonathan
- i just don't want it to become Kill Doctor Lucky
