It's her own fault for writing lies about people in the first place.
I'm not going to tell you who it is, but someone already told me that they might not control themselves the next time Myriam spouts more lies.
It was for her own good.

[good_ideas]

i cant defend her on that point
but her bad choices dont mean you have to make bad ones too
have you never heard of just talking about it

[psycholawgy]

I've talked to her countless times about it, even back at home, but she never listens.

[good_ideas]

youre her friend right
praise her
butter her up and make her happy
tell her how much you appreciate when she tells the truth

manipulate her
that way everyones happy

[psycholawgy]

That's not how she works.
And making her happy means I have to praise her newspaper - which was what I was trying to change. It makes no sense.

[good_ideas]

praise her box or something then

besides you cant just keep threatening her like this
what were you going to do when someone found out the truth like i did now?

[psycholawgy]

You only found out because I told you.

[good_ideas]

i knew before you ever told me
its called being a detective

[No, it's actually called being a psychometer. And cheating.]

[psycholawgy]

Unlikely!

[good_ideas]

oh really
why

[psycholawgy]

That's a secret.

[good_ideas]

in case you didn't notice
i was the one who contacted you
because i knew you lied

[psycholawgy]

Tell me, then. How did you know?

[good_ideas]

DETECTIVE
WORK

i told you before

[psycholawgy]

You have no proof that I lied, though! I'm in the clear.
Meanwhile, I can have a few other people give you testimonies that I was threatened. I can even give you a name on who might have threatened me.
Even if it's not true, I have things covered.

My point is, I know Myriam better than you do. She wouldn't have stopped spouting lies unless I did something like that.
Especially when her motto is "the ends justify the means".

[good_ideas]

the proof is in the fact that you didnt even try to pretend you didn't know what i was talking about when i first texted you
but sure give me some names and ill go talk to them too
its not like i have anything better to do right

or maybe youre just biased and you cant admit it
who knows?

[psycholawgy]

I'm not biased. You just don't know what you're talking about.
And this is getting really annoying.
Look, I don't care anymore, just don't tell her, alright?

[good_ideas]

right
you dont care
but you still dont want me to tell her
and you dont see the contradiction in that at all

[psycholawgy]

I'm saying, I don't want to talk about this anymore!

[good_ideas]

fine

[She'll just go and tell Myriam that Athena doesn't want her to tell her about it. Everyone wins.]
