[ As they move onto more practical matters, it's also easier for Break to slip away from uncomfortable truths that he would still rather not confront. He shifts and relaxes instead of being so visibly tense, because there's nothing to calm you down like talking about murder with your pal. ]
Well... About that. I did have an idea, actually.
[ He cants his head back and forth thoughtfully, but then ends up finishing off his tea. It's quick, even for him, so maybe he's more anxious about the day that he had been letting on. He gestures for Gilbert to pour him another, since that's a little difficult, and he's willing to accept Gilbert's help for small things like this. ]
Only one suspect will be executed, wasn't it? The wording implies two people working together, but it doesn't say that has to be the case. So, what if it were more than one accomplice? My thought was that "if every suspect was an accomplice," that would work out nicely. Getting five people to work together, kill five people, and then the group is playing a game of chance, but the other four would be able to retire. I also had the idea of tying it in with the "true" culprit being someone who had immunity for the week, but I'm not sure just how permissible that part would be.
[ He'll reach to take a sugarcube at this point just to eat as a sweet. ]
Now, we don't know three people that would be willing to agree... But I can think of two that might. Not this week, since I wouldn't propose it before I was sure. But it's a thought.
