It's forever hilarious that he came to this conclusion and he hasn't even run across Five drenched in blood or anything... which will absolutely happen at some point. He's just really excellent with people.
downswing: (defining)

[personal profile] downswing 2021-05-30 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
It mostly amuses me because he's so wrong, yet so convinced he's right.

[personal profile] somebadnews 2021-05-30 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
He at least... picked up on something?? I'm sure Five will learn a valuable lesson in honesty from all this.

bravery
★★★★
considering he spends most of his time skulking around spying on everybody else... respectably effective? sure. brave? Ehhhhhhhh

quippy wit
★★★★
the guy's got that aura

honour
★★★★★
He'll probably refrain from screwing Arche over long enough for them to finish using each other. Probably. Unless someone more useful comes along.

odds of surviving a pack of thugs
★★★★★
???? He does seem to have some nifty teleporting skills. Arche hasn't seen him in action otherwise, though.

odds of leading said pack of thugs
★★★★
he seems like the type to collect a crew of minions through blackmail

odds of being gently but firmly rejected if applying to join a pack of thugs
★★★★
Well........ more the fool those bandits in Arche's opinion but he does look, like, 12

likelihood of awkwardly, accidentally or stupidly betraying the party
★★★★★
When he definitely for sure betrays the party it will be non-awkward, non-stupid, and absolutely on purpose.

is this person going to survive the dead?
★★★★★
Probably because see the bravery and honor stats up there.

would this person be better off dead?
★★★★★
Ehhhh. Arche doesn't trust him but it takes a lot for him to wish somebody dead. Five hasn't met the threshold yet.

would you trust this person with your safety?
★★★★
Well... he involuntarily did so once and Five didn't take the opportunity to murder him so that's a start?

is this person why we're going to fail the mission, whatever the mission?
★★★★★ through incompetence
★★★★★ if he decides it's more personally profitable to screw us all

likelihood to yeet themselves off a cliff
★★★★★
He can teleport, this has gotta be a valid tactic for this kid.

odds that this person will one day snap and kill us all
★★★★★
???? Kill us, Arche doesn't know, he's not aware of Five's career. Sell us to people who will for one (1) corn chip though? Yeah probably.

would you want this person to have your back in a dramatic stand-off?
★★★★
At least better than a stranger.

is this person why we're always out of money?
★★★★
He has no idea.

does this person even know what money is?
★★★★★
Nooooo idea.

would this person suit as your choice of a virgin sacrifice?
★★★★★
Sure, he's like 2 and a half he probably has the qualifications right.

Does it still count as betrayal when you expected it all along??
darkeststars: (eyebrow)

[personal profile] darkeststars 2021-05-29 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
If it makes Arche cranky he figures it counts. It makes him cranky enough already lmao. But it's okay Five, he's from the local comically evil bad guy empire he's used to working with people he doesn't trust farther than he could throw them! :D

[personal profile] somebadnews 2021-05-29 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
This is fine. The only person Five trusts is his sister, and he still semi-expects her to end the world again at some point. (Don't tell her that, you're doing great sis!!) Perfectly acceptable working relationship.

bravery
★★★★★
( Seems like an appropriately cautious young man. )

quippy wit
★★★★★

honour
★★★★★
( untested )

odds of surviving a pack of thugs
★★★★★
( More likely to avoid dealing with said thugs at all. )

odds of leading said pack of thugs
★★★★
( Seems enterprising, but smarter than this. )

odds of being gently but firmly rejected if applying to join a pack of thugs
★★★★
( Thugs don't tend to look deeper than the surface

likelihood of awkwardly, accidentally or stupidly betraying the party
★★★★★
( Seems too level headed for this. )

is this person going to survive the dead?
★★★★★
( Slightly worried about this, but he seems smart and like he'll learn quickly.)

would this person be better off dead?
★★★★★
( Absolutely not. He'll do his best to make sure of it. )

would you trust this person with your safety?
★★★★★
( He wouldn't have qualms save that Mingyu seems to. )

is this person why we're going to fail the mission, whatever the mission?
★★★★★
( No. Pretty sure if Five is signing himself up, he'll see it through. )

likelihood to yeet themselves off a cliff
★★★★
( pls do not )

odds that this person will one day snap and kill us all
★★★★
( data deficient )

would you want this person to have your back in a dramatic stand-off?

( Lee Chang knows how to delegate, and Five is best utilized somewhere where his mind is the most important feature rather than his sword arm. )

is this person why we're always out of money?
★★★★
( Doesn't seem to be a financial drain. )

does this person even know what money is?
★★★★★
( Probably, but Lee Chang is not the best gauge... )

would this person suit as your choice of a virgin sacrifice?
★★★★
( Probably a virgin, but let's not with the sacrifice plx k thx )

Reasons he's on his short list of tolerable people with this glowing review. So nice to have another adult in the room.

bravery
★★★★

* no man is this paranoid and gets into this much trouble without having some bravery in there, cowards would just shut down

quippy wit
★★★★★

* he's made of caustic wit

honour
★★★★★

* average, because it seems like a moving bar that is steadier than Five wants it to be

odds of surviving a pack of thugs
★★★★★

* he'll portal away as necessary let's be honest

odds of leading said pack of thugs
★★★★

* but specifically only if he can be bothered with the idiots

odds of being gently but firmly rejected if applying to join a pack of thugs
★★★★★

* average, he looks young but sometimes they want the young ones most

likelihood of awkwardly, accidentally or stupidly betraying the party
★★★★

* accidents happen. otherwise he thinks it'd be fully planned, or be a base inclination for the sake of himself (and sister)

is this person going to survive the dead?
★★★★

* until we find other dead who can distance attack or attach to one who can portal

would this person be better off dead?
★★★★★

* NO ONE IS BETTER OFF DEAD

would you trust this person with your safety?
★★★

* specifically only when clinging on to him in the face of wolves or collapsing rooftops

is this person why we're going to fail the mission, whatever the mission?
★★★★

* does this mission require not blinking away

likelihood to yeet themselves off a cliff
★★★★★

* because he can just portal during the fall and be fine, if his risk assessment said that cliff yeet was necessary

odds that this person will one day snap and kill us all
★★★★

* seems more likely if something happens to his sibling

would you want this person to have your back in a dramatic stand-off?
★★★★★

* only specifically if it's to his advantage to see we both make it out alive

is this person why we're always out of money?
★★★★★

* no, he's part of why we're NOT out of it

does this person even know what money is?
★★★★★

* his hands are filthy with awareness

would this person suit as your choice of a virgin sacrifice?
★★★★★

* no sacrifices, not even old souls in young bodies

Pretty good judge of character, actually! Five appreciates that he recognizes all the trouble he went to making sure they're financially sound. No one should doubt his hoarding abilities.

... or Wei Wuxian's, I realise, though not as pronounced as he's been more "dead" than alive the last twenty years, alas

Don't sell him short, he's doing a great job. Highly functional for mostly dead, Klaus could take notes.
