Someone who can actually draw please do the Sinister Plot 1.0 team as this (from left to right- Libby, Nico, and Tristan) I beg you, I just saw this image and I can't get the thought out of my mind lmao
Libby *about Nico's plan*: "You're just making this up as you go along!" Nico: "Yep. But I do it brilliantly."
[about to go meet up with Libby]
Gideon: I want to hear those three little words.
Nico, sweetly: I love you.
Gideon: I love you too, but try again.
Nico, pouting: Fine.
Nico: I will behave.
Gideon: There you go.
"Oh look, is that the stupid idea train coming around the bend?"
-Libby after hearing one of Nico's ideas at some point, probably
[in their university days]
Libby: "Why are you looking at me like that?" Nico: "I'm hoping you'll spontaneously combust"
Libby: "If I fall…" Nico: "I’ll be there to catch you." Gideon: *looks at Nico* "What if I fall?" Nico: "Then I’ll fall with you, never leaving your side." Callum: *watches these two interactions* Callum, to Tristan: "And if I fall?" Tristan: "I’ll be the one who pushed you."
"Why do you always insist on making our collective glass half empty?"
-Nico to Libby at some point, probably
[in their university days]
Libby [to Nico]: "Would it kill you to say thanks to me?" Nico: "Possibly. And since I could die, it seems like an extreme test, don’t you think?"
Nico, acting shocked: "Did you just give me a compliment?" Libby: "I--no, I made a comment." Nico, grinning: "A kind one. Did it physically hurt to do that? Do you need an ice pack?"
[after Nico tried again to ask her about her time away]
Libby: "I told you to stay out of it!" Nico: "Because we are rivals, and nothing more." Libby: "Right." Nico: "Well, I thought long and hard about that, Libby, and after many, many hours I’ve come to the most wretched of realizations. One that might curdle your very blood." Nico: "You are my friend."
“He talks whenever he's nervous, or excited, or bored, or for that matter, awake.”
-Gideon / Libby about Nico at some point, probably
[in their university days]
Mira: "Is the glass half empty or half full?"
Nico: "Half full"
Libby: "Half empty"
Max *drinks all the water from the cup*: "The glass is fucking empty"
Gideon, from across the room: "Yeet"
Nico: "Just know that this pro and con list is going to be a waste of your time! The end result is going to be, “Damn, this plan is awesome, that list was pointless. I wasted all that paper and ink. Sorry, trees. Sorry, squids.”"
Libby: "Wait. Is that how you think we get ink? From squids?"
Nico: "… no."

[in their university days]
Libby: "You really are campaigning for asshole of the year, aren't you?"
Nico: "As defending champion, are you nervous?"
Nico: "Can I say something… That'll probably annoy you?"
Libby, in a tired voice: "Since when do you ask for permission?"
Nico, pretending to be offended: "Touché"
