Honor Society + Whatever-The-Hell-Nier-Is Picnic

[overlimit]

[Sometime on Monday, Nier will get a text informing him that they're having a picnic, as well as the time and place.

When they do get together, somewhere on the campus grounds, there's a large picnic blanket spread out over the grass. There's also a pitcher of iced tea and some cups. Kon and Yamato have been encouraged to bring food.]

Good; everyone's here. We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get started.

[tagging is free-for-all, feel free to just make toplevels for different topics or whatever!]

Could he not be another case of a sleeper? Though we typically find them still around the campus grounds, I realize, but...

[overlimit]

But then our sleepers for this case would be... Taichi, Malik, Sakyou, and Denji.

Four people, and two repeats. It doesn't fit the pattern until now at all. How the hell...

[ghoststrums]

[ oh, wait ]

What Nier said, about Dimitri. What if Denji wasn't a sleeper? What if he was brought outside by him so he could frame him?

[amain]

[ CLOSES HIS FUCKING EYES. ]

That's possible. The dead have already told us it's a pool victim of three.

[ghoststrums]

And Dimitri couldn't have been working alone. The fire thing wasn't his. So... someone from Spring?

[amain]

There are so few left in Spring.

[ HAHHAHAHAHA ]

But if Malik was the original sleeper, they could have used his phone or ID that's on him, right?

[ghoststrums]

His ID, at least. I don't think they could have gotten into his phone unless he hasn't put a lock on it. So ... anyone who could have a fire spell.

[overlimit]

Which could be anyone at this point.

I obviously used mine on Thursday. Malik... doesn't earn many vouchers, so that's questionable. I don't really know what spells Lucretia has.

[but her next thought is I really don't want to imagine Lucretia being involved...]

[ghoststrums]

... I don't think it was her. It doesn't even have to be a Spring, if they could just use Malik's ID to bring him in.

[amain]

If this is the case, I wonder why they would spare Malik over Sakyou.

[ because let malik live i want to see him laugh at corpses more ]

[ghoststrums]

[ that's a good question ]

... Maybe it was easier to get Sagihara to talk and agree to it. Because... there was a fight, but... they have that talk, with the victim, every time.

[amain]

Out of consideration, huh... It doesn't change the end result, but...

[ well ]

[ghoststrums]

... We know they don't exactly have a choice.

[amain]

Yeah.

[ The voice will pay eventually. ]

I'm still not sure how effective it is to switch sleepers in attempts to frame Denji... But there has to be a purpose for doing it in the first place.

[ i hate this ]

[ghoststrums]

... I hope so.

[ haha! ha. ha. hateful. ]

[overlimit]

[...]

How do you suppose that weird hint factors in? It doesn't seem relevant for Manwol's case, so like... was Sakyou killed by a woman who was into him? Or by a couple consisting of a man and a woman?

[amain]

... I wonder if we should have asked for a targeted hint because I have no clue.

[ghoststrums]

The latter, probably? Two people who are straight passing.
