[Lance looks a little over life at the moment, which most of his friends probably recognize as his standard look when not being purposefully professional. He's not bothering with the latter right now, both because he's a bit annoyed and because he thinks it would be pointless, so instead everyone gets normal, slightly bitchy Lance.]
Okay, I wish I could say that I can't believe I have to remind people of this, but vigilante justice is not exactly the best idea here. Not only is it morally wrong to just declare yourself to have the authority to decide who is and isn't deserving of 'justice', but it's logically wrong too; you're just going to cause problems, not solve them.
I'm not saying not to intervene when something's actively happening, but going after someone days or weeks later is just starting the whole process of retaliation all over again. So can everyone just take their egos down a notch and, if they're concerned about someone being an active threat or something, work on coming up with some sort of solution that isn't going to make things worse as soon as it's done?
[This is not the first time he's had to go into this discussion while here--or at home--and so that's why he's being extra short about it. He's also not just talking about the recent incident, it's simply what prompted him to say something this time.]

There are a few people here who get along with her, so they might have more luck speaking with her. It's worth a try, and so is diverting her attention onto something else; it all just depends on what it is she really wants.

just sayin i wouldnt hold my breath for it. and i dont think appeasin her is gonna help, people are just gonna get fuckin fed up again and she wont change her shit because there aint any consequences. why the fuck should we treat her like a fuckin toddler that you have to distract with somethin shiny so she wont throw a shitfit?

If the situation were different I would agree with you; I'm not really interested in coddling people for their bad behavior. But in this place, you have to go with what's practical, and if something as simple as giving her something better to do works then it's worth it.
[Especially in place of the current nonsense.]

her shits on lockdown and we dont got to deal with it
and i think its pretty fuckin practical to keep her confined til we have a better way to deal with her that aint danglin our fuckin car keys in front of the shitty murder baby and hope that distracts her enough to not try killin people
lets be real here thats a pretty shitty plan. it only works if she feels like it.

It worked with the last person here. But if you have an actual suggestion, we could all use additional ideas.
text
and yknow what? sure. i got a suggestion. back home we had to deal with this kinda fuckin piece of shit that thought he could hurt whoever he wanted with no consequences. yknow what we did? we locked him the fuck up. turned him into a bird and locked him in a cage so he couldnt hurt anybody anymore
we got people here who have magic that can do that or shit thats basically the same fuckin result. so if we want her to stop fuckin hurtin people we make it so she cant hurt people.

Okay, even if I didn't have any objection to your suggestion, I'm not seeing anyone volunteering to do such a thing, except for this current batch of temporary cryogenics. So unless you're capable of it, it doesn't sound much like a viable option.
text
and yeah no shit nobodys fuckin volunteered, you gotta ask. taakos probably got enough mojo to pull it off but he aint gonna do shit unless its worth it for him or somethin he cares about is at stake

i guess i could? or i could see if lupll ask him, he actually fuckin listens to her
