She can't take the train if Ciel kills her before taking her stuff :whistle:

But we can't torture her for thousands of years if we kill her before taking the train!

Though, I am thinking about working on way to trash her reputation, the biggest mistake Monroe did was appearing less trustworthy than her, if we can reduce her cred, she can *accidentally* slip for a window during the night when with someone else.

Here is a simple way, mention to other people that she sucks at hiding loot and should never be allowed to do so.
 
Well shit, is it weird I now feel a little bad about what happened with Monroe?

Well revenge probably won't happen, even if we switch timelines after each death it's probably just going to result in her getting away, and honestly as a man once said: Revenge is a sucker's game. People like that barely last long in the City anyways, but if people want maybe we can do something like Sins suggested, portray her as incompetent and hinder her future attempts to do the same to others.

Maria on the other hand...she is someone I want to know more about, and as much as I want to call the Claw guy this seems like our only chance to talk to her so...

[X] Hang out with Maria

'Revenge', in this case, specifically means trying to get the drop on Harumi at night and letting the Sweepers take care of evidence. Basically Monroe's plan, just without anyone else who can interfere. Ciel is not going to attack her openly or in bright daylight.

Figured, but with Monroe already trying to pull that she's probably weary to let that happen again, so I don't think it's going to work a second time.
 
Honestly
I want to at least see if harumi can acknowledge the fact if for no other reason than setting off the domino's
What happens when a person says to her face they know she stole from them....... yet chooses to forgive?
We do not have the ego to boast of becoming a color but planting this seed in her head and having her witness that
What will blossom in her heart at the end of the line?

Nothing would come of it. This is the City, after all, and the White Nights and Dark Days have yet to occur as well.
 
Who knows
I simple wish to drop a matchstick to see if anything burns here I guess you could say
Character growth is character growth to me

Right, that reminds me

[X] Tell her you know she stole from you, Forgive her, then tell her you hope she doesn't kill her self from stealing from someone who would wish to kill her, after all even a rat knows to not anger a cat or a bird by stealing their valuables

I have to veto this because Ciel is not going to just forgive Harumi. They can put the matter aside and focus on something else instead, but that does not equal forgiveness.
 
Then I shall correct my vote
Edit has been corrected
Now I see how the dice roll

[] Take revenge on Harumi
Gosh, I really, really want to scratch this itch. But it's not like she's the Index or killed Parvati.

[] Hang out with Maria
Maria fascinates me, and I wouldn't mind finding more about her. And it seems like a Ciel thing to focus on people instead of money.

[] Take revenge on Harumi
Hmm...

[] See about 'finding' some more loot of your own
Always a productive use of time.

[] Take revenge on Harumi
Hhhnnnggghhh...

You better be worth the time, Maria.

Well, to be honest, she does wants to make us believe that, because, seriously, the shower with the curtains closed? That's not a hiding spot, at all.

And becoming known for that would hurt her in a way that is a nice subtle revenge, being known as the person bad at hiding things means no one will trust her to hide anything.
 
Man, I WANT to try and get a bit more loot and use as bait to catch Harumi in the act, but there's just no winning hand for that. Harumi would win in a fight, and I don't think the Shi contact could make it in short notice to deal with her. Only two days before you catch the train and go your separate ways once the whole "our boss is dead" matter is settled. Unless a new friend is willing to help, the Harumi issue will have to be let go.
 
Do you think we could get a short interlude on the Warp Cleanup Crew commenting on the results of our Train rides?

I lean hard towards this. Cause this event is something that is gonna smolder in the back of Ciel's mind. They have a more muted anger to them, I want to see them actually angry.

Although I'm miffed about getting our stuff stolen, in the end, friendship is stronger than spite (at least for now). It helps that I like Maria as a character and want to hang out more with them, so new (potentially wing) friend plan is a go!
Also, it would be hilarious if she's just really bad at hiding stuff instead of having stolen it, and has constantly done so in the past as well.
 
Either way, Ciel can take solace in the fact that Harumi is going to get whats coming to her sooner or later. You can't get away with that forever. Unless she does, than well... 🤷‍♂️
