He wants his daughter back dammit. I'd imagine that would be more yelling in the heat of the moment than what he might have imagined he'd be answering in a situation like this.

weeeeeell, since Circe did bring it up to the Producers as a way to get him off her back and they don't want the folk to lose their belief... If he says that, he'll be told that he must leave and not look back, and his daughter will be returned.

He'd want to know how he's supposed to believe that, since he's been told all he's got to do is stay quiet and keep his head down and pray and stuff and look, she'd be returned...when clearly that has not been the case.

Because this is still a Hajime infiltration who's down to fight, alas.

And here's where I ask you how you'd like it to end. The Producers have no qualms about killing him. They could do it (the weapons are right there, even).

Or he could get a 'insolence!' and wake up back in the courtyard with crocoducks possibly trying to eat his tail.

Or he could get the above, and also wake up with a newborn, very weak and constantly fussy baby who's as close a genetic match as possible without defects unmistakably very much like his lost daughter.

In their metrics, it would be things like his popularity, and any concerns about others getting up in arms or going looking for him causing issues that would dissuade them from the killing.

OKAY so after much consideration because trying not to get Ike and a baby killed later is going to stress me out, poor Ike is not walking away from this encounter.

Which leaves me with a couple more questions! ...namely, how long should it take for Hajime to respawn, and where will he be respawning? I should also mention he's used "I'm a nasty bug spirit who's making use of this vessel" before upon having an infiltration die, sob.

I think how long and where is a mod question, I think. I'll ping the plurk!

Hajime could always try to pretend to be Ike! It wouldn't be the first time that an attempt to kill somebody has failed (poor Jayden) although the producers would be very concerned that it happened more than once.
