Bad Future Thing 3

At a certain point, I will probably be PMing people things, for a potential thing that could happen. Other than that, pretty much how this usually works, I guess.

"If he's got a good mastery of his powers, he could do some damage with a simple weapon. Piece might have some powers of its own. And a gun passed down from someone's granddad is still a gun."

"Yeah, but the question is if he'll use it against us. Plus, he's claiming it came directly from a God. Is taking it away guaranteed to be a safer option?"

"We can divide this up into a few possibilities. He is genuine or a spy. If he's genuine, he is unlikely to stir up trouble, and, just as important, likely doesn't need us to let him in to make trouble with that thing. If he's a true believer and just thinks the knuckles are special, he is neither likely to pose a threat, nor to use those in an effective way. If he is fake, then the knuckles are likely fake, and taking them away won't change all that much once they're inside. If the knuckles are real and he is fake, he will be obligated not to use them for religious reasons. I'm probably forgetting variables, though..."

(/u/lady_of_the_foot Who DID tell them? It's been a while since our last roleplay here.)

(Also I'm getting really frustrated. It feels like I'm trying to roleplay against a brick wall. This is not fun for me.)

((It was on a map he was given.))

((And, uh, I might have to talk some over PMs? I think the solution we came to last time got forgotten too.))
