Swallowing a drying lump in her throat Ritsa struggled to hold back the sobs that wanted to break free. Rich had asked her the question this time. "Jeff's dead!" She cried out. "And it's all my fault. I didn't listen when he told me to run. I just couldn't leave him there alone..."
Ritsa took in several deep pleading breaths as she struggled to prepare herself for what she assumed would follow. They would blame her, outcast her, if she was lucky they would just pay her back in kind and be done with it all there. "I killed him." She whispered. Her eyes were on Guy. "It's not Guy's fault at all. You can't blame him. I ate too. I thought they were serving cow, y-you know. A horrible joke. But it wasn't. It was really him, and all I wanted to do was to get him out of there alive." Her sobs escalated the more she spoke. Breaking down as she admitted what had happened.

His stomach emptied, Guy slowly straightened up. He clutched something tightly to his chest, fixing his eyes on the ground as he swiped his mouth with the back of his sleeve. His gaze briefly went up, flickering towards Rich, Ritsa, and Gretel before back down.
Guy tightened his grip on the object he clutched to his chest. "...He promised it would be safe," he began dully. "He was looked up to. Remember? Before the Mall owner disappeared with the keys. After he locked everything up and vanished. Everyone went to Jeff. He had experience, everyone looked up to him, y'know? He... organized the supply runs, remember? In the early days?" His face twisted into a pained expression. "He promised, he p-promised, he said everything would be okay but it wasn't."
"We... We were surrounded. Until the Undying just... Just..." He looked up at them. "We were found. By the casino. They... They saved us."

Jeff was... dead? Jeff had died, eaten by Guy, at Rista's order?
No, no, no no no. This was wrong. This was a lie, this was something - another falsehood, something made up by the Infection. Surely, surely this was some sort of crazy hallucination.
But Rich knew he was in his right mind.
Guy ate Jeff, because Rista had said the wrong thing. Jeff, their leader, their fallback, the man with the plan.
"Why, Guy?"

There's some clamor on the fence, which parts Saul has...'salvaged' to reinforce the shabby shovel he somehow gotten from the old lady candyman...with flowers. The shovel now looks...bizzare, because he added so many metal parts taken from the fence's decorations here and there.
At least it makes it easier to handle.
Some...barfing noises attracted his attention. Since Undyings cannot barf, that means whoever made that sound is human...-ish. A small group of people has already surrounded the source of barfing noise- he saw some familiar faces, Mall Rats; and the person in the middle was-well, there's no mistaking that Batman contacts. Guy? What happened?
He took distance from the crowds, all talking to each other; he has no place here-
-wait. Jeff died? They were saved...by the casino?
"Guy." Saul called from behind the crowds. "Did you...eat anything there?"
There's just one scenario in his head he wanted to very much prove untrue.

"We... We were participants." Guy continued, his hands clenching into fists. "I made it. I bought myself. With Bingo." He pulled his lips back into a forced smile. "I was good at it. They liked me for it, offered to give me more coins if I stuck around. I... I made enough. Made enough to buy myself. And her. And her. But someone else bought her first."
His shoulders began to shake. "But they said -- they said -- they said I could still buy her."
"I did."

His voice dropped to a whisper. "There was no way out. No escape. She smiled, she smiled and she knew and she was at peace and seemed okay with it and so I did it and I felt stronger and alive and sick and disgusting and appalled and mightier than ever."
"They let me go. They taught me how to survive. To kill. To ward off the Undying. Did you know? Did you know, that consuming them makes you stronger? Not the already turned -- they are bad. Poison. But the rest..." He trailed off, look up at them. Through them. "I went back. Nobody asked where she went. I found him, the Mall owner. Already turned. I found him and killed him and got the keys, but this wouldn't have happened if he didn't lie."
"I couldn't take him out. Too popular. Too many eyes. Even though he never ate them he was stronger. Mentally. Physically? I don't know. But I needed to find his weakness. I needed to get close, to take my revenge."
"So I ate him." -------------"He deserved it." -----"I have no regrets."
"Would you have done the same?"

Rich backed away from Guy as he divulged the tatters of a story, something about being on a supply run, getting caught, the Casino saving them. So they'd participated already? Meaning, of course, Guy knew... Guy was just feigning surprise when Rich had told him about the cannibalism.
The Kentucky boy shivered, betrayal ripping through him like a bullet. His hands shook and his teeth ground. Guy... knew what he was doing. There was no plan to actually save Jeff. This was Guy's revenge, because Jeff had 'lied.'
"Who is she, Guy? Who was so worth betrayin' us for, betrayin's Jeff for?"

"My sister, Becki." Guy relaxed his grip on the object he was holding, showing it to Rick. "She's... all that's left."
He was holding a skull. A polished, pristine white skull that was split in half with a leather binding attached to it so that it could be worn as a mask.
"We were close. Not twins. But close. So close. When the outbreak hit I managed to find her. I promised. I promised and I lied because she's dead because Jeff lied and now he's dead too."

Guy reached into his pocket and pulled out a piece of candy. He kept a firm grip on the skull as he removed the wrapped and popped the candy into his mouth, letting the artificial flavor coat his tongue.

"Gawd." Rich muttered, hand clasped to his face in shock. This was...this wasn't right. Nothing was right, but this moment was the least right moment of the day. Forget the sea of bodies, the monster dragging the knife, the fake Lora. This was well and truly ******** up.
"God, Jesus, Mary, 'n Joseph; Guy. You - you ate her?" Rich was just starting to thread all the fabrics of this ******** up quilt together, and the disgust was obvious on his face. "Ya ate yer own flesh n' blood, Guy?"
But there was also sympathy, because Officer Filth had yet to pull his knife. God only knew what he would do if he found his family dead, or turned, "What did Jeff lie about?"

"If not me then who?!" Guy snapped back. "She -- she, she wouldn't have made it anyway. There's not enough medication to go around. That's why we went out, after all. To try and save her, but... but all it did was kill her." Guy closed his eyes, hugging his sister's skull close to his chest.
"Jeff knew a place. Thought it would be safe. Swore up and down that it would be. But it wasn't. It wasn't. It... wasn't..."

So.......her instinct was right. The man's fate ended up like the two lives she took indirectly, that little message she found in her pocket together with the torch was the last word he said to her. Gretel watched as Ritsa cried desperately, claiming she was the one responsible. Her hand raised to touch her cheek, it was dry. She pinched the flesh up slightly, it hurt a bit, but there was no tears. Like her roommate said, she might be a heartless monster.
He was the one who told her Rebecca was gone, and now he was gone too. She simply wished Ritsa won't be the next one to leave them. It can't be said it was fully her fault, they enjoyed the process of breaking down players, making it seemed their actions lead to that consequences. The players didn't realize they were convinced to follow the rules. She had read psychological books about it on animals, Gretel knew they played the same trick on her as well.
Her train of thoughts went on when finally Guy did with his business and began his long owed explanation. Yes, she picked Jeff over Guy as he could notice the smallest details, he was charming, devoted and took care of them. That man......his words had zero credibility when he said he was okay. Gretel sighed in her heart, continued to try her best to focus on the story.
The story was like some beautiful tragedy, she quietly listened until he finished with a question then conversed with another guy she hardly knew. "Anyone can guarantee a place would be 100% safe, Guy?" Just a question in return. Not that she didn't pity him and his sister, she had a brother too, but holding grudges in a world like that was unwise. As a leader, he should know well no one can blame someone's death on another fully unless they are the one stabs the knife in.

So that was why Jeff died?! THAT was why they all went through that casino hell? FOR ******** REVENGE?! Leiah was shaking by the time Guy finished his reasoning. Okay so break it down...Of course she could see that the need to kill jeff over failing to protect Becky, failing to keep his promise to Guy. But what she didn't get, what pissed her off the most, was why the hell he ended up dragging the mall rats into this mess with him, whether he intended to or not. She fisted her hands to keep from grabbing her knife so she could stab the selfish b*****d. She killed a boy, who was barely starting in his teenager years! She was sure others had to do similar things to stay alive and she felt for them, really she did.
However...
"You ******** selfish, useless PIECE OF GARBAGE! You put us all at risk for some revenge plot?! Sure, loosing Becky was hard on all of us, not just you. Some of us have lost more than just a sister to this madness, but you dont see any of us trying to ******** eat each other to gain power do you?" She marched a bit closer, fingers just itching to grab onto her knife.
"There are other ways to kill some one without eating their flesh you moron! Jeff was strong because he was a leader. Not because he was eating flesh! Its people like you that get others killed because they cant ******** see past their own little scope of revenge! The others may take pity on you, but I wont. I personally dont think you're fit to be a leader but that's just me....I'm so sick of this s**t!"
She sneered at the man before her, backing away before she did something she would regret. "I will not follow you...Hell I dont want to even be anywhere near you." She looked to Ritsa then and sighed. "What that man did was not your fault...You didn't know what you were doing...You shouldn't blame yourself for something you probably didn't have control over...That....thing isn't worthy of forgiveness but do what you want. I'm out before I decide I might actually want to hurt him..."

"Jeff was a leader. How could you not trust what he said?" Guy replied to Gretel. "I was a nobody until I found the keys. Even then, I was never a leader. Jeff was."
Guy tightened his grip on his sister's skull as he glared at Leiah. "Oh? Oh? You think I wanted everyone in on this? That I wanted everyone to go through the ******** Casino? Don't pin that on me, b***h!" He reached out and jabbed Leiah in the chest with his finger, poking her. "I never ******** told anyone to go near the place. Are you going to claim I bought Jeff? Guess what, I ******** didn't and the only reason I knew where he would be was because I ******** went through it already, so <******** you and your assumptions."
He spread his arms wide. "You wanna blame me for everything? Fine. Fine! Go right the ******** ahead and punch me or do whatever for all I care. It won't bring him back."

Lease felt like she was arriving at the tail end of a long and winded story; maybe two really, all in connection to Guy who was actually standing right there (like, right there and still in that stupid suit). But she had been late in seeing the story of how he got there unfold - the weird bingo game battle - and was only catching a few choice words of another. A serious one from the sounds of it, sad too from how depressed everyone looked and ... bizarre from the actual stuff she as hearing, "the ******** had come over because of the loud noises she had heard, still being outside and all still but obviously missed the "fun." At first she had just passed a weirded out look from person to person, her brows knit together in confusion but when she heard Jeff's name mentioned - about the only one of the wardens of the mall she didn't mind - her gaze snapped to Guy. Then to Leiah as she continued her tirade.
Woah... what?!
