this is terrible and ic for octavia and i love it.
with that said! octavia is likely to get half-tricked, given her current state of impulsive violence — and by partially tricked, i mean she'll likely find out these good people aren't trash by ruthlessly approaching them, and then backpedaling to do proper observation/research to affirm her suspicions (though said proper observation/research will likely be delegated to her inner circle, as much a show of trust as it will be a test on octavia's end to see if they come through; i imagine she would give them each the task separately without letting the others know she has, just to see if they come back with the same information so she can weed out those that are deceptive.)
once that's done, octavia will. uh. depose of any traitors herself, bloodily, if possible. this will include killing most of them and leaving others as an example of what happens as a consequence of mutiny and betrayal.
