Grace said that when she spoke to him, he acted as if he didn't know the Avatars could give powers. Which is odd, since last week we spent a large chunk of the trial discussing that.
I'm mostly wondering about the amount of killers. People brought up the idea of it only being one person, but... that's still a lot of ground to cover.
I don't know - I'd have to ask Childe-san, Lenore-san, or Aoi-san. But we can think about it... did we even think about if Vlad-san or Starphase-san used their powers on anyone?
[there's so much information to go through. he sighs.]
... I think we need to separate the evidence list again, now that we have all of it, then see if we can track a path for everything that we do know.
Mm. The problem is that once the new week starts, everything gets hectic-- I don't think people really thought much about last week's trials because of the memory thing that's going on.
[ everyone is too busy running from memshares to discuss plot ]
But I also don't know if I buy that it was self-defense or anything. It seems pretty convenient too, for people to just suddenly have a reason to kill everyone that reads as a threat.
While I don't think there's anything wrong with presenting the theory, it only really works if there's evidence to actually back the theory up. Her previous behavior isn't really evidence.
But people still switched to focusing on it as if it was true.
Yep. And now they've pretty much given up on the case because they think it'd be pursuing someone who acted in self-defense. I think it's why people were more nervous to even bring up names that could be tied to it based on injury check too.
[he... sighs.]
... I get that we want to be fair, and I wouldn't want to pursue something that was in self-defense either. But you know... if they just spoke up about it early, we probably could've gotten Kaan-san's case to be our focus.
They probably wouldn't feel safe admitting to it if there isn't another suspect. Since even if they did it in self-defense, if we can't come up with another name, people might vote for them anyway.
Of course, we don't know if that would happen or not, but the idea that it might can be enough to make people hesiate.
The killer robot was still there - I feel like someone would've volunteered the information as long as the other option was still killer robot.
[but. he shakes his head.]
.... but I get the apprehension. It remains that we just don't have an answer, I guess. So we don't know if that person acted again this week because the cause of death didn't really imply a skillset besides agile.
I went to talk to Greed-san today. They said there might be some credit to thinking that Kaan-san and Starphase-san's murder was the same person. If people wanted to solve that one anyway... Maybe what we need to do is solve Starphase-san's.
Ashiya-san, Gojou-san, Law-san, Omi-san, Yi-kun, and Childe-san are our only viable suspects for Starphase-san's, right?
Not getting into some freaky major crossover that maybe Vlad-san could've tried to kill Starphase-san or something.
[that's way more convoluted and he'd rather disprove the first list entirely before trying to figure out a giant yakety sax]

Now that's a lie.
Because I told him that weeks ago.
no subject
Maybe I should use my power on him...
no subject
If you did, what would we do if we end up finding out the truth and he did it?
[what would they do with the knowledge of a murderer?]
no subject
If I did it before a trial, the issue would be making sure he doesn't get suspicious. Would be a shame to plant a target on myself.
no subject
... you're not close with him, huh.... And there's no reason why we'd ever invite him to talk to both of us.
[they barely even want to acknowledge they know each other]
You could always do it next trial, final hour type stuff.
no subject
[ maybe someone who is bad at hiding murders will murder. ]

[and he just sighs even as he pulls out the last cactus needle, letting it flaw with a clatter as he shakes out his hand]
Owwww.
[his nose wrinkles]
Did you have any other thoughts on it, Takeru?

Hot tub, cactus needles and everything were all together. So that was Luca-san, right?
Vlad-san, even if he was in the music room... that wasn't cactus needles, right?
But if we generated a cactus, that means it's gotta be someone who had a Lust power last week, right?
no subject
Or attack someone else.
no subject
Probably just to defend himself.
But... the tea room and stuff - that was so last minute, but what was that about? There were more cactus needles there too. Was that Luca-san too?
no subject
They went through a lot of rooms, so it would at least give us an idea of how long they would have possibly had to do all of that.

Gonna be honest... I don't know how much further we were getting with that one in the first place. What were we supposed to do without a body...?
no subject
I don't think people really care about solving that one.
no subject
[gotta acknowledge that]

Out of all of those, who do you normally speak with? What are your impressions?
