Why does he tell the player this. AND NOT HIS BIZZZYBOYS?? His boys are so scared…
Spoilers. And rambling
Shouldn’t it be the other way around if he wants us to “leave it to the professionals”? Wouldn’t it be better if he let us be afraid and not his boys?
Why does he tell the Godpoke at all? Isn’t sowing seeds of doubt and distrust the whole point of what he’s doing? He wants the player to stay out of his way and telling them stuff like this seems counterproductive. He could’ve not told us that without looking suspicious, he’s definitely got the plausible deniability on this one. No one’s seen Cobigail in years. Even she doesn’t remember for certain if she eats people or not.
SHE DOESN’T REMEMBER! Gosh, just… her genuine self-doubt over this. She’s pretty sure she doesn’t eat people… but what if they’re right, what if she is a monster? This bit breaks my heart, poor Cobi
I wonder if having her question herself that way was part of the plan.
ANYWAY! Inspekta could’ve easily told the player he doesn’t know if the blood sacrifice stuff is true or not, but considering the other letters it’s probably part of “King’s” plan, and that he and his boys are looking into it and the Godpoke should stay out of it until they know things are safe.
Again. Cobigail is not doing herself any favors. And again, Inspekta has the plausible deniability, and isn’t creating distrust towards the other gods the whole point of his plan?
She is NOT helping her case.
MA’AM!! I love you so much but you are making yourself look very guilty as far as the whole blood sacrifice thing goes. I AM TRYING TO CLEAR YOUR NAME RIGHT NOW MA’AM AND. YOU’RE REALLY NOT HELPING

She even says it’s an understandable mistake to make. (After all the trouble that lie caused her… Cobi, how are you so sweet and understanding?) Inspekta could’ve played dumb. I guess his pride wouldn’t allow that, and he just couldn’t pass up the opportunity to make King look bad.
Or maybe a part of him recognized that he went a little too far with that one. Cobigail isn’t really a threat to him the way he perceives the other gods to be. And accusing her of blood sacrifice when she’s already been isolated for 20 years is disproportionately harsh compared to like… forging a breakup letter and sabotaging a roundabout love confession. (If you could even call it that. Those two probably would've went at least another century without admitting their feelings without Inspekta's meddling prompting the Godpoke to slap Clicky in the face with it)
Anyway now I’m imagining Hector apologizing to her after the events of the game and her responding with a similar “I can see how you would get that confused” and uh Hector saying like, “No, Cobbie, I new yew we-aren’t a blood drink-her. I lied ‘bout yew”
and Cobigail just going like: Oh…. Oh! That was a good one, then! You even had me going for a bit there! and then she does her scary face at him and tells him to never do that again or she’ll barbecue him. And then she says she’s just messing around but seriously dial it back next time.
And I dunno something like how she responds to you throwing her own jumpscare prank back at her.
Wanna draw that now. But alas I have other projects on my plate at the moment
#I lover her so#*chatter chatter*#Great God Grove#Cobigail#Inspekta#Inspekta's plan frankly makes very little sense I don't think he's very good at this actually.#“Hey don't yew try to help da boys dey got it covered. Yew'll get in their way don't dew dat”#“Anyway here's directions to the place I don't want you to go to and all the facts on the case and...”#It's almost like he wants you to stop him.#It's why for most of the game I thought that Capochin just overheard him being insecure and was acting mostly on his own#but under the impression that this was what Inspekta wanted bc y'know lack of communication = big problems is kinda the whole theme#but no Inspekta just ordered his boys to cause the apocalypse#and didn't have any idea how to deal with opposition to that without giving himself away I guess#that or he's just genuinely taken a liking to the Godpoke and wants you on his side as his left hand man (Capo's already his right hand man#(He's god a lot of hands its fine Cappy's not gonna be jealous I prommy)#great god grove spoilers
