Hm... I wonder where the mushroom ends and the moth begins... Well, overwhelmingly, Zommoth could not catch Kira, but the room is split on whether it could survive or not. A better question is, who brought this little guy into my office?
If they're still bugs and Kira is still human, neither is on the other's radar and nothing happens.
If Kira is a bug, however, it depends largely on who he happens to target and where he is. If Team Snakemouth ends up on the case and he's anywhere within Venus's range, he will go down in short order; perhaps being brought in by the team, but they're just working on a tip. If only he hadn't felt the need to monologue to himself!
If he's based outside of Bugaria and they still become aware of each other - some distant place Snakemouth is visiting/exploring/etc - the odds turn against the team some.
They might end up on his radar first, being falsely (or even correctly) accused of a crime. Assuming correct names are given and it's a big enough crime to draw Kira's fire, Vi and Kabbu are almost certainly dead, Leif perhaps surviving due to their unique condition. Either way, I think 2/3 dead counts as "would not survive", and this poll isn't whether Leif by themselves could solve the murders.
If they're lucky, some shenanigans may have lead to them already using fake names (or incorrect names being announced) and thus all surviving. At least for now.
The team's biggest (potential) boon here is whether or not Leif can sense the Death Note and/or Ryuk. They can sense some types of magic (definitely crystal magic and Venus, but not whatever the Tarantula was doing), so if they can sense the Death Note at work, then they might be able to track down Kira.
Here's the most likely/best-case scenario, in my mind, for Team Snakemouth to successfully stop Kira without Venus's help:
The team (or Leif, at least) happens to be near a Kira Murder. Leif recognizes a pulse of magic at the time of the death, and tells their teammates. Kabbu will want to stop this murderer and Vi will think mysteries are out of their skill set. They likely return to their original objective (with Kabbu at least resolving to look for clues on the side).
Later, Leif happens to feel the same magic as before. The team quietly follows the magic to its strongest source, probably following Kira home. Here, they break in and apprehend him, Leif quick to disarm him of the dangerous artifact.
They're surprised to find that burning it works fine, and the artifact is destroyed.
No one believes them about Kira so they're wanted for breaking, entering, assault, and theft.
So, if "recognizing the murder is happening, finding the culprit and weapon, and stopping the murder" is enough to get credit for solving the Bug Kira Murders? Yes - depending on the interactions between the rules of the magic/theology systems and some happenstance (the amount of time they spend walking around - at least when we play - suggests it would be a matter of time more than chance). If they have to figure out all the rules about real names and faces etc first to get credit? No, probably not, but who cares about that nonsense when the deaths have stopped?
If they, as bugs, were brought onto the humans' detective team (the level of logic I think this blog operates on, given how the character speaks about previous hires), a similar scenario could play out. L has narrowed the search area significantly, and they'd definitely suspect magic. Secret operatives Beemerang, Frost, and Green Ranger set out to... see if there's anywhere Leif can sense Murder Magic going on.
Due to the size difference, there's no way they could accost Human Kira themselves, but if they identify him then they could spy on him (mostly Vi, the only one capable of flight). If news of the existence of sapient bugs has been a well-enough kept secret, Light wouldn't suspect an apocritan agent and she'd probably be able to figure out quite a bit depending on how long she was spying. Even if the testimony of a bee isn't accepted in court, the information could likely prove useful to the human agents. Does that count as solving, or is it merely helping?
Also important to note: This is based on our loose remembrance of the plot of Death Note, a show we never finished watching.
I like to imagine Zote on the ask blog is just going out. getting his mail from his mailbox. and then yelling his response to each letter in the middle of town square. it doesnt make sense for every ask but its really funny in my head
hKHDGLSKDJGHSKDGJH NO I LOVE This interpretation. Yes. Exactly. Elderbug is so fucking confused as to what this guy is talking about. Why is he getting so personally offended that he has to yell about it Out Loud for everyone to hear. Girl.
1st Image: ✨ the quantum lune @/lunapothecary - what does "holding a fictional character accountable for their actions" even entail.
2nd Image: Jack Black strategy pack @/lizardkingfe replying to @/lunapothecary and @/adybpt - you're still allowed to write fic and make art of them but they have to be portrayed doing community service
You there! What are you doing, skulking about in the shadows?
Yes, your eyes do not deceive you. It is I, Zote the Mighty, a knight of great renown!
I've chosen to vacate my humble abode and face the treacherousness of the world once more. For quite some time, I have been locked away in the drab and dull atmosphere of this town, and I will yield to it no longer.
The air here stifles me. I will fall to no such feeble hindrance! Especially not when self-imposed.
...Hm? You wish to ask questions of me? After all this time, NOW I am approached with awe and intrigue? Hmph.
Well, I suppose I may indulge you. But do not waste my time, cur! I've many expeditions to be off on, and many foes to cut down! You will owe me a great debt of gratitude for my patience and the honor of my presence!
Spit it out, then! What have you to ask me?
[[OOC:
Hello! Blog owner here! My main is @ratcandy, and you can call me Clam!
To get some necessities out of the way:
This blog was partially inspired by @/knight-of-hallownest's own Ask Zote blog!
Not every answer will have art accompanying it. I will only draw something if I Feel Like It. So don't come in expecting silly funny art, u may just get silly funny dialogue!
The version of Zote I am presenting here is directly related to my interpretation of him in Camouflage of Great Renown, a fanfic in which Zote is a nosk in disguise. How he may answer some things may seem strange without that context!
But be aware! This man is in some serious denial. He will not readily answer questions about nosk life. At least not for a while. Gotta break him down first.
Timeline-wise according to that fic, this blog would take place not long after the ending. In an optimistic reality where he snaps out of it for a bit. Not saying that any of this is 100% canon to CoGR's world, as I have my own ideas for that - but hey! Still fun!
I'm mostly doing this for fun because I greatly enjoy writing Zote dialogue. Works as writing practice too!
And well yknow. There's a miniature zote in my brain who possesses me sometimes and this is my way of letting him talk. Don't worry about it.
Depending on how many asks I end up getting, the frequency of my responses may be all over the place! I'm currently a Struggling College Student, so. Worth keeping in mind!
anyway. That's enough rambling from me! If you've got any questions for Me that Zote cannot answer, go to my main n let me know there!
love characters who are like "this is how the world works. this is how it has to be (because if i'm wrong i have to face what i've done // if i'm wrong i have to face whats been done to me) "
Assuming the poll is referring to Leif's perception of the sensation of cold, that might still be different even if their body can be frozen. Like water! It doesn't have to feel the cold to freeze into ice. Which only brings us back to "who knows"...
sorry im thinking about how vi spends her teenage years being discouraged by her peers & talked down to by her sister, having no support for what she wants to do because no one thinks she can do it, so when she leaves she's believed herself to be perfectly self-reliant and not needing anyone else, where the only reason she teams up with kabbu is so she can get her permit
how praise really does get her anywhere because nobody gave it to her before, and the only reason she doesn't ditch kabbu is because he called her a reliable teammate, how that was enough for her to feel guilty and come back in spite of her fear
and how fast-forward to the termite kingdom she says her dreams are coming true, how she welcomes the support of others when she used to think she didn't need it, how she reconciles with her sister & the hive because her friends teach her that it's not worth it to hold petty grudges, how her abandoning kabbu becomes a point of teasing bc they all know she would never do something like that again & i just
why i think zote is a nosk and yes I'm (mostly) serious
and No, I'm not just going to gesture vaguely in the direction of CoGR. Like yes writing that accursed thing had IRREVERSIBLE effects on my brain, and it is 100% the reason I started thinking this way to begin with, BUT.
I think, to some extent. If pressed. I could argue a little.
So what if you all entertained me for a minute. You all entertained me very readily when it came to bug sexyness. So what if you entertained me on this one. Take my hand. Follow me. This is self-indulgence at its finest.
and if I don't post it now I'm going to be editing it endlessly and forever.
This is a RIDICULOUSLY long post, and I get VERY derailed as it continues.
It's also only like. Half serious. In that the first half is serious, but then I start losing my mind. If you're willing to entertain me and read all this, well. More power to you!
Okay, to start with, I'm gonna explain how this thought process even initially occurred to me (prior to the writing of CoGR). And it mostly has to do with the fact that Zote looks so much like a vessel, but certainly cannot be for various reasons (not void, mouth, wrong color... I could be here all day but I will not do that. Go eat this other post I made about it if u really want that argument).
It also never occurred to me that he'd be the same species as Elderbug, despite this clearly being a popular theory on here hdgkjSDG.
(I could go on a whole separate argument about that, but to not make this post 1million extra words long, just know it boils down to Elderbug Has Too Many Legs and Honestly If You Remove the Mouth they've got Nothing Else Going For Them.)
But, really, what are we left with, then?
Sure, he could just be some other random bug. Maybe there are some bugs that just look like that - outside of the vessels - that we have not seen. But, since we are decidedly NOT shown any bugs that look like vessels but are not vessels OUTSIDE of Zote himself, it leaves me with question.
Why does this guy look so much like a vessel when he cannot be. I mean, yeah, in meta terms, he looks like that because he's Ghost's foil. He is MEANT to be a "worse" version of the player character. Off-color (termed "grey" but that man is PINK!!!!), asymmetrical, hunched over, and sucks ass at fighting.
But. We are not talking meta. We are talking story. We are talking World.
Could he still be a child of the Pale King/White Lady? Maybe. But I really, really do not think so. I also touch on this in my "why I don't think this loser is a vessel" post that I linked earlier, so I won't go too crazy here, but.
I mean. Two pale beings made a pink baby? With a mouth that neither of them have? And mans inherited None of that godliness (that we can see)?
I jus don't see it.
So. Again. WHAT are we left with??
He looks a LOT like a vessel. Enough that a lot of people THINK he is at first. But he cannot be a vessel.
He is also not likely a child of PK/WL (entertain me, entertain me).
And he does not resemble any other bug we've seen in Hallownest.
So, I mean. Imagine, if you will, something that can mimic appearances, right.
AND not only that. But something that has definitely seen vessels before and would know how to mimic one.
(I'm just saying, that's quite a lot of em strung up in the den here).
And imagine he sucks. Really, really bad. So of COURSE he would make an imperfect disguise, right?
Okay. That's the BASIS of my theory. Now you're gonna have to bear with me. I'm going to start ...Analyzing. If you could call it that. And arguing. Very heavily.
Zote as a Nosk: Why He Do That?
This section of my ramble is going to mostly be speculation, or explanations for parts of this theory that I could potentially be questioned on. For instance:
Why would a nosk want to disguise itself as a vessel?
In my own personal theory, Zote wanted to blend in with society and tout himself as a brave, unbeatable knight of great renown! Such titles are not often given to beastly creatures such as Nosks. So, he fled his ghastly, dark home, put his past behind him, and took on a new name.
After all, names have power, don't they?
As for why a vessel specifically...
The vessels are (supposed to be) stolid, emotionless beings that do not think or feel fear, and have no method of crying out in suffering. Sure, a Nosk would have no way of knowing that whole mantra, but if they'd faced multiple of these enemies, staring down blank stares that don't portray whatever horror they feel in their circumstance...
They'd have no reason to believe vessels are typically brave, fearless creatures.
Especially since our vessel, Ghost, is often referred as "The Knight." It tells us that vessels (or at the very least, Ghost) are knightly-sorts in some capacity. Which would make sense, given their purpose.
And, of course, if stories of the Hollow Knight made it down to Deepnest, and if THK being a vessel was wider known (which I doubt, but still), then that'd obviously be the perfect disguise to fit a knightly part.
Even more so that Nosk has clearly seen a bunch of these things, even if they're rarely spotted elsewhere outside of the Abyss.
Would a nosk even think to do this at all?
I mean, we've little reason to believe Nosks were not intelligent creatures prior to infection. They're smart enough to use the appearances of other bugs to lure them deeper into its den.
And more than mimicking the bug itself, the thoughts of Nosk's prior victims definitely suggest it would mimic loved ones of its prey. Or someone that prey would WANT to see. That at least implies some amount of intelligence, unless it's straight-up mind reading.
But again, even if it doesn't, Nosk just acts like an infected creature in-game. So we don't know what they could've been like prior to Orange Fanta.
What makes you think Nosks were a species? Couldn't there just have been one of them?
Sure, there could've just been the one. But I think that's boring. Nothing in particular really points me toward them being a species. For all I know, Nosk is just some weird, solitary cryptid.
But that's not fun. So I'm just ignoring it.
How else is this dude getting around, if not somehow at least a LITTLE stronger than he seems on the surface?
Right? I mean, yes, there are two instances where Zote gets stuck, one of which he can die in. But outside of those two, he takes a WEIRD path throughout Hallownest, and after that single Vengefly King encounter...
Well, he's totally fine. He can't die again. Dude is resilient, somehow.
But with what we've seen of Zote (a nail that does no damage, extremely clumsy movement, Being Small and Bite-Sized), there is no possible way he should have survived down there.
Hallownest is damn brutal. And I don't think infected creatures would pity Zote and choose to spare him.
The only think he does have going for him is tankyness, since he can take a lot of hits and be relatively fine. But even then, if something were to start attacking him, little idiot certainly wouldn't run away if he thought it could kill him.
He's stupid. He wants to prove himself. In the Coliseum, he doesn't even hesitate to throw himself at Ghost.
So how in the world did he survive down there if he WASN'T somehow secretly something else?
Hey, speaking of that clumsyness...
It makes a lot of sense that a guy who's used to being much taller, with far spindlier legs, would have a hard time adjusting to a smaller stature, right? He's gotta figure out a whole new sense of balance. And I doubt a nosk is meant to stay in disguise that long, anyway.

The Two Entire Pieces of Evidence In-Game That Could Denounce This Theory:
Two pieces of dialogue from Zote himself could totally explode this into millions of pieces and have you all laugh very meanly at me for being so adamant about something that is very obviously not at all substantiated by canon. But hey. Hey. Before you start pointing and jeering. Listen to me.
Dialogue One:
"I came to this kingdom to fulfill a promise..."
(Technically he says this twice at different times, one being spoken and one being thought, but I'm counting it as One for our purposes)
People love to point at this dialogue and tell me this means Zote couldn't have possibly originated from Hallownest because it says he CAME here. Specifically.
Ok 1: Saying he came here to fulfill a promise does not mean he could not have been from here. Perhaps he IS from here, took off, and came back. Sure, he doesn't expressly say "i came BACK to this kingdom" but STILL. Possibility is not eliminated.
and 2: I'm... I mean... listen. This guy is not too great at being truthful.
He could easily just be running on a fake story about his life to cover up what he he Actually is.
'Cause, I mean... If he's already hypothetically disguising himself, Why then would he tell the truth about where he came from.
And please, making up a grand story about how he came from some distant land beyond the wastes, where he had to struggle through the horrors of the powerful winds and dastardly beasts, sounds Very in-character.
(And honestly, tangent: Do we think he would survive the wastes? I mean, yes, granted, he survives a lot in the game. But he can easily be killed by the Vengefly King if you just leave him there. And surely there are worst creatures in the Wastes.
On top of that, Ghost can't even walk into the wastes without being blasted back by wind. Do we think Zote could get out there? The guy who gets hit by a nail and goes flying across the colosseum?
And On Top of THAT, if we choose to believe the Pale King, which I do not but yknow Still, bugs supposedly lose their sapience while outside of his/a kingdom. If that's true, then... erm?)
Sure, he could totally be a totally irrelevant bug from a totally separate irrelevant kingdom in the middle of nowhere. But to look so much like a vessel... that'd just be coincidence then?
That's not NEARLY as fun. And I LIKE fun. So THERE.
Dialogue Two:
(thought while in Deepnest) "So, the kingdom was hiding this dark nest full of deadly predators. Well, now the deadliest predator of all is here...
...Zote the Mighty!"
Ok, so, yeah. That one is pretty damning. That pretty obviously suggests he's never been there before, which wouldn't make a lot of sense given he's a nosk.
Unless there are nosks in other kingdoms, I guess, but. Refer to the tangent I just made hSDKGJH.
And really. I'll be honest. I only have one potential argument for this, and it's bullshitty. But it's bullshitty enough that I still allow myself to have my fun thoughts.
So. You see. Zote likes to say things. If you haven't noticed.
Making himself out to be a big strong valiant knight is his whole shtick. That is what this man is. And saying stuff that is blatantly untrue to make himself seem Cooler is kinda what he's all about.
So... and bear with me, yes, I know how flimsy this sounds.
This could be him mentally rehearsing what he WOULD say. In the circumstance where he was very epically relaying this story to someone else.
and. AND. Of course. Since he's disguised. He obviously wouldn't give away that he's FROM here. That would be silly. That ruins the whole point of the disguise. Might as well just be a nosk wandering around then.
So, clearly, obviously, evidently, this thought process reflects what he WOULD say to someone who does not know he's a nosk, and who he does not want to know he's a nosk. While he's stoically regaling the tale of his adventures in the Horrible Death Pit that is Deepnest.
Yknow. Just thinking ahead for how he could make this situation sound as brave and epic as possible. WITHOUT mentioning his connections to this place. Because, I mean, really... Why would he want to attach himself, a courageous, heroic knight, to a dark pit full of deadly beasts?
He is no Beast. He is a Knight. Etc.
...yeah, I know, not my best or most sound argument in the world. But I'm having fun. If everything has already fallen apart for you because of this one (1) dialogue, that is so valid. Go live ur life.
I'm gonna keep going though.

Things That Make Me Point at the Screen and Go "AHA! SEE! I'M SO RIGHT!"
Number ONE:
Hey. Remember when you saw Nosk's mask on the floor up there in that screenshot?
So, if you didn't know this, after you defeat Nosk, it drops its mask on the floor. And you can smack it around as much as you like. Pretty fun, right?
Well. If you let Zote die, in order to get the neglect achievement, you have to smack the mask he left behind. Because he ALSO drops his mask.
Hey that's weird. The only two masks in game that you can freely smack around are Nosk's and Zote's.
Huh. Strange.
Number TWO:
Zote has a STUPID amount of health. Like, it's obnoxious how many hits this man takes. And not only that, he doesn't even DIE when you defeat him in the Coliseum, so he probably has even MORE health than that (ignoring the Eternal Ordeal for a second, since... I highly doubt that's meant to be canon LMAO).
The listed health Zote has on the wiki (200) is nowhere near Nosk's amount of health (680), sure. But I'm assuming that health total is based on how many hits it takes to get him down in Coli (which I'm also assuming is the same amount of hits it takes to get him down in the Eternal Ordeal). In which, again, he does not die after that. He just gets stuck and cannot get back up.
But ALSO, that Nosk is infected, and we've been told infection gives strength - hence why the Traitor Lord is like that. So it's possible the nosk we fight in Deepnest just has a strength boost due to orange juice consumption.
...Or, Zote just sucks for a nosk. His stupid amount of health might actually be just really low for that species. For all we know.
Number THREE:
Speaking of the Coliseum, have you seen the JUMPS on this man?
Zote sure can Leap pretty far. He's clumsy as all hell, sure, but those jumps sure are something.
Even in the GPZ version, he jumps all the way up off screen before crashing down. Which, yes, I know GPZ is not actually Zote, but this tells me Bretta is at least somewhat aware of Zote's jumping expertise enough to include it in her sexyman version of him.
Do you know who Else jumps all the way up off screen before crashing down? That's right baby. Nosk
...Ok first nosk does a little infection drop attack but HEY you know what I mean. Both Zote and Nosk got big jumps.
Number FOUR:
Precept Twenty-Six: 'Don't Trust Your Reflection'.
When peering at certain shining surfaces, you may see a copy of your own face. The face will mimic your movements and seems similar to your own, but I don't think it can be trusted.
Ok that's the obvious precept. I don't think I need to explain why this one makes me go AHA!! SEE!! SEE! HE SAID THE THING!
So I'm going to move on to precepts that I can STRETCH to fit my AGENDA. This is where I start getting derailed and incomprehensible, as a warning.
Number FIVE:
Precept Six: 'Choose Your Own Fate'.
Our elders teach that our fate is chosen for us before we are even born. I disagree.
Just like he CHOSE a NEW IDENTITY when he DISGUISED HIMSELF AS A VESSEL? HUH? HUH?
Precept Eighteen: 'Seek Truth in the Darkness'.
This precept also explains itself.
So you're telling me the truth is in the darkness? The darkness? Dark like Deepnest? Like a place so dark you can't traverse it without a lantern? You're telling me the TRUTH is in THE DARKNESS? Why wouldn't you want to explain that further, nosky boy? Don't want to explain HOW the TRUTH is in the DARKNESS, HUH?
Precept Twenty-Eight: 'Don't Peer Into the Darkness'.
If you peer into the darkness and can't see anything for too long, your mind will start to linger over old memories. Memories are to be avoided, as per Precept Four.
Oh now you DON'T want us to look in the darkness? Why? Huh? There's MEMORIES in that darkness? You've got MEMORIES in there? And the truth is in there too? And you DON'T want us to look at it? Is it because you're a NOSK
Precept Forty-Five: 'One Thing Is Not Another'.
This one should be obvious, but I've had others try to argue that one thing, which is clearly what it is and not something else, is actually some other thing, which it isn't. Stay on your guard!
Oh yeah? Yeah? One thing is not another? And you've had to have this argument multiple times? Did you have to argue that YOU are not a NOSK, little man? Little man who isn't being totally Real with me. Little. BASTARD
Precept Fifty: 'Don't Linger on Mysteries'.
Some things in this world appear to us as puzzles. Or enigmas. If the meaning behind something is not immediately evident though, don't waste any time thinking about it. Just move on.
YOU WON'T PULL THE WOOL OVER MY EYES, FUCKER!!!
Number SIX:
Hey. HEY. Why do we first meet Zote inside the kingdom (Greenpath) and then he immediately goes up to Dirtmouth before going back down?
Why don't we just meet him in Dirtmouth like we do Tiso? Why does he go straight up to Dirtmouth after our first encounter with him, only to go back down again?
Why does he already start in the kingdom and make his way out first. What's up with that.
Why doesn't Elderbug mention that he saw a guy pass him by to go down the well, likely before Ghost even showed up? With how Elderbug talks, it seems like no one has been through Dirtmouth in a LONG time.
And if Zote got in through the well, he clearly didn't get very far if he only ended up in Greenpath. So he couldn't have been in there very long.
Surely Elderbug would've seen him walk by and go down... if Zote walked by him at all.
Elderbug will mention Literally Every Other Bug that comes through Dirtmouth EXCEPT for Zote. and tiso. but ignore Tiso, because we first meet Tiso before his descent into the kingdom.
He talks about Cornifer and Iselda, he talks about Sly, he talks about Bretta, he talks about Jiji. If you banish the troupe, he talks about Nymm being around.
Why doesn't he mention Zote? what's different about that Zote guy. Did he never pass by Elderbug to go into the well at all? Was his first time in Dirtmouth the first time we saw him there? After he ascended out of the kingdom?
Sure, we meet Quirrel in the kingdom, too. And Hornet. But they never go back UP to Dirtmouth, and certainly don't do so after your first encounter with them.
Bretta and Sly are originally FROM Dirtmouth. And they don't go back down after you save them. So them coming back up after being infected makes perfect sense.
The only other exception is Cloth, if you manage to save her. But she only comes up after she's unable to complete her mission, and there's nothing left for her down there.
So why............................does Zote come out of the well first? Why is that the first thing we see him do after Greenpath?
Unless he's.... FROM down there.
And he made his way... UP.
...before going right back down, because this town SUCKS and I want to battle in the coliseum. To fulfill the promise of glory to myself. Or whatever.
Number SEVEN:
Speaking of the town Sucking to him:
"This dreary place... it reminds me of home. How ghastly..."
Dreary? GHASTLY? Like. LIKE DEEPN-----
Number EIGHT:
(said in Deepnest) "Hmm? Are you lost in these dark tunnels? I don't care.
No, I won't lead you out. I know the way, due to my powerful memory, but I only travel alone. Begone."
Due to "powerful memory"? You've got powerful memory of these dark tunnels that, surely, you shouldn't be able to see shit in? Because, surely, you're not from here or anything, right?
Oh but that's WEIRD, right? Because after you get him out of that web, he DOES manage to escape Deepnest. Hmm. How WEIRD, right? For someone so very weak? For someone who CERTAINTLY shouldn't be able to see down there?
It's almost like he. DOES know these tunnels.......
-
OK, I'm done.
This is pretty much all I have for genuinely arguing for Zote being a nosk.
Is it not much? Yep. Not much at all. But more evidence than there is for him being a vessel, at any rate.
Is it also heavily due to my brain connecting dots that do not exist and seeming more and more insane as I go? Literally stretching at seams that aren't real as I go off into a rabbithole I dug with my own shovel?
Yes.
But i'm. HAVING. FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ok yes that's all. Go read the fanfiction I wrote about all this. I said my piece. goodby
Leif is absolutely the kinda person who'd hate the singing. Sit there embarrassed but not stopping them because 1) Kabbu is so excited about it and 2) Vi would just rope in more people to make it more humiliating
