If I wanted to request your presence for a private conversation, what would I have to do?

[ since he's in his npc outfit and everything. ]

I received a letter that confirmed that the note about there being more occupants than staff and guests referred to where the dead are.

This morning, something new and unusual was next to me on my bed when I woke.

[ she holds up a YOU TRIED sticker. ]

I have no idea what this may mean.

[skyagain]

[ he and i both don't have anything new to report, so he's mostly been listening in nodding as the new dimitri, but

this sticker. this is what makes him pause ]

... Anything special you did last week?

[ in such a dubious tone ]

[wisterin]

[ yeah, shinobu's very dubious, too. ]

I was nearly framed and was mean about Dimitri during his execution?

[skyagain]

You think someone might have sent you that thinking you actually did kill Sylvain...?

[ like some kind of idiot... ]

[wisterin]

I don't know. Would that make sense?

Someone did accuse me of murder after the trial. I think he may still believe I did it even after I told him he was incorrect.

[skyagain]

... Unless the dead are sending you a passive-aggressive message for no reason, then that might be it.

[ So Tired ]

[wisterin]

You think so? I don't think I've done anything to make the dead angry with me... but maybe something was lost in translation.

[ she's trying to think of anything offensive she's done lately where the dead could maybe see. ]

It doesn't seem like something Okumura Rin would do. He seems straightforward to a fault.

[skyagain]

No, I meant it sounds unlikely to be the dead, so it's probably someone here.

[ there's a pause when she says it's rin and he gets a look like "of course", but; ]

If Rin still believed it enough to come to you, then that means maybe some of the others he's close to might believe it too. Since they didn't tell him otherwise.

[ the judging continues ]

[wisterin]

[ she smiles up at him. ]

We may never receive a confirmation since they didn't come forward yesterday, but it's not pressing to me. If that's what that sticker means, I'd rather they just come up and talk to me.

If I was possessed, I would come forward as soon as I could.

[preowned]

Well, it could be that they weren't possessed.

[skyagain]

At this point, they either weren't possessed or they're a coward for not stepping up with the rest of them.

[ Ruthless ]

[preowned]

If they weren't, then we could likely narrow it down based on who wouldn't care if Shinobu was voted for.

[ not really doable if they were, but. something to think about. ]

[skyagain]

It's someone who'd know flowers well enough too, isn't it? Not exactly common knowledge.

[preowned]

If not flowers exactly, then at least plants that are toxic.

[skyagain]

Still narrows it down a lot. Those footprints I saw on the mountain were pretty big.

[unsaid]

[a tilt of his head]

Hua Cheng was volunteered to assist me with the flowers each Sunday.

Shall one of us inquire with dear Cetus’ power to see if his Room Service is what we believe it is?

[preowned]

It wouldn't hurt, I think.

[skyagain]

Research and preparation?

[ wow... murder solving powers ]

[wisterin]

If they weren't possessed, that makes it worse.

I'm not close or friendly with everyone, but there was someone who spoke of how coming clean was a terrible idea yesterday.

[preowned]

Oh, yes. It was really hard to miss that argument.

[unsaid]

[oh i forgot i wanted to respond to this in general]

Ha ha ha. A letter or flower sent by lantern down the river... Oh, how nostalgic.

[his village...]

Though that is curious... Claude received one a few Mondays ago, but it was unclear why.

[wisterin]

By lantern? How lovely. We had to feed bunnies at the camp.

[ she tilts her head. ]

If the sticker isn't new... I wonder what the pattern is. Is it the opposite of getting a ticket for stellar performance?

[unsaid]

The village does hold its own sense of elegance that I cannot help but be fond of...

[considering he helped craft some of the locations from nothing?]

But it is hard to say. Harrowhark Nonagesimus asked after them some time ago, and said that she thought they were not particularly significant.

[wisterin]

It holds a little of your sense of aesthetic.

[ it's good to have a healthy ego. ]

Is that so? But they are still being sent out for some reason, even if it's not something to worry about. I'll set it to the back of my mind for now.

[unsaid]

Ha ha ha.... That, I cannot deny. It holds some of the young one's as well.

[fond!!! grandpappy!!!!]

Mm, indeed... Well, we could always inquire with the departed. I am not entirely sure of their origin, in the end. Claude did think that it had something to do with Alphinaud's murder.
