Don't worry, I don't plan to get in the way of anything.

[ ignoring when they refuse to do strip check anyway. ]

[kumeyuri]

Not like it's that important to know where everyone was save for those who died, anyway.

[rippled]

Mm, well, we should know that at least by tomorrow.

... the message this week was odd though. Who was that?

[kumeyuri]

... I've got no idea. The angels also seemed pretty confused?

[rippled]

Mm. I was trying to figure the message out with Basilio, but...

[ they lower their voice. ]

We did not do a very good job.

[kumeyuri]

[tries to picture saber and basilio discussing this





wow he is shocked and amazed they didn't get far]

You're probably going to want someone more modern for this.

[rippled]

There really aren't that many of those, though...

[kumeyuri]

There's Koharu, but... she's not exactly an option right now. [a beat] Well, we'll be seeing the angels again tomorrow, at least.

[rippled]

Mm.

... how is she doing?

[kumeyuri]

Saddened by the lack of romance around here. [a beat] ... Still blind, unfortunately. But she's doing her best.

[rippled]

... ah.

Well, we will figure it out. We always do.

[kumeyuri]

[doesn't mention the part where claude tried to cheer her up by randomly saying that uruha and fidelio were kissing and she actually believed it and uruha had to crush her hopes and dreams]

The alternative would be pretty bad for our group.

[rippled]

Which is why we need to succeed. I think the last thing we want is to vote for someone innocent.

[ they are thinking about yves from last week. ]

[kumeyuri]

[a pause

and then something occurs to uruha.]

—Oh. Do you mind if I take off my clothes for a sec?

[ASSIGNS THEM IN THEIR ROOM]

1/2

[rippled]

Huh?

[rippled]

[ they clear their throat. ]

Go ahead. It is your room.

[kumeyuri]

[STOP BEHAVING LIKE A VICTORIAN MAIDEN

but he's going to do so, which will make it obvious to saber that he has bandages wrapped around his shoulder/torso with dried blood over the shoulder area. more importantly, he's kind of looking himself over, which probably looks really weird, before he apparently finds what he's looking for.]

... So I do have a second one.

[but with that settled, he quickly puts his clothes back on again because saber is clearly shy...]

[rippled]

Waitwaitwaitwaitwait. You can't just do that with no explanation.

[ a second what? hickey? saber sadly is not thinking this ]

[kumeyuri]

Oh, right. [a beat] Lucas and I both woke up with fresh bruises this morning, with no explanation. It's possible that the others who were with us have 'em too.

[rippled]

[ ... ]

Doesn't that imply that someone in that group was involved?

[kumeyuri]

[...

he just makes an expression like that yeah that occurred to him and he hates it because half of his favourite people were there.]

[rippled]

[ well, if it's the case it's very helpful because it significantly narrows the suspect pool for one murder. the bad news is eveything else. ]

We will see how the evidence looks tomorrow.

[kumeyuri]

[admittedly it only narrows it down to HALF THE GAME.]

... Yeah. That's all we can do.

[rippled]

[ THAT IS STILL BETTER THAN NOTHING... ]

Are you going to mention this right away?

[ the injuries... ]

[kumeyuri]

... Might as well. It'd just look suspicious if I tried to hide it.
