Who is trying to get other students to get tortured or killed?" had he missed something? Apparently he had.

"Fighting back against injustice is always worth it. Standing up for yourself has a lot more value than people realize" at least he thought so. Well, he couldn't argue with her when she said that they were all going to die one day anyway. "Look at it from the positive side. THEY will die one day as well" Since Rosier and his goons were human as well. Humans with the biggest ego he had ever witnessed.

Minjae gave a little applause at the trick shot she was doing with the ball and as it rolled towards him he let it roll on the top of his shoe and kicked it back carefully. He was scared that the alliance would do far worse things than just wipe her friend's memory but he kept his mouth shut. They didn't truly know what the Alliance wanted just yet. Dominance over muggles and trying to strip muggleborns off of their magic, sure. But there HAD to be more , Minjae was sure of that.

"Would you do it?" he suddenly asked as the question plagued his mind again. "If you could somehow make a compromise with them to keep you and your best friend alive and safe...would you join the alliance? I mean, i highly doubt they want a bunch of kids on their side but humor me for a second. Would you? "
Ash wasn't in the mood to talk about it. "People who are going to regret their life decisions in the close future." Promise. Or maybe a threat. "Yeah, but I kinda want to die after that. Not before." Especially since she was younger.

She hadn't meant that the alliance would wipe her friend's memories. They would just kill him. She meant that if she died but won, the government would make him forget. But now, onto making a deal with the devil. "I wouldn't do it," she said, without hesitation. "I know it's fake. It would probably end up in some kind of sick scheme where I have to kill him. Dunno. It kinda reminds me of whatshisname. Snape. He made a deal with that one guy and look what happened to his crush." Slip of the tongue. Whoops. "If anyone says, 'join me and I'll keep you and the people you love safe', it's a lie." Duh. Very common muggle movie trope.
