Probably. Or he would say, I'm sorry that you feel badly for not doing enough for me. That must be hard for you, are you alright?

[preowned]

And give you a disappointed look until you share your feelings!

[outsidebones]

Quite.

[this is sweet, but she doesn't have it in her to smile at it. she'll instead, affection weekedly, reach out to take his hand.]

I wish it hadn't been him.

[preowned]

[ they can hold hands. thank you affection week. ]

I wish it wasn't either. But here we are.

[ with a dead rupert.

he'll manage a smile. ]

So, we'll try to figure it out.

[outsidebones]

We will. I don't want to leave questions and suspicions this time. I want to come to a conclusion.

[preowned]

Mm. Admittedly, I don't think we did a bad job last week, we just... ran out of time, at the end of it.

But we have one less body this time.

[outsidebones]

Will you tell me something? Did you have suspicions last week, as to who was responsible for Aikawa and Zuko?

[preowned]

For Zuko, yes. It was between Kaeya and Diluc for me, and then primarily Kaeya. Especially because of the white fur found... his clothing. But we ran out of time at the end.

[outsidebones]

I agree with you. I only wondered how deep the suspicion ran.

[preowned]

I wonder if whoever killed him suspected him as well... it may be an easier decision to go after someone you think already murdered.

... no idea about Aikawa though.

[outsidebones]

Even if you've been taken by a shadow, the logic stands.

[her mouth twists a bit.]

As for Aikawa, I don't know what to think about it.

[preowned]

It's not too surprising. With that many deaths, we just won't have time to examine everything before the time limit. But figuring things out could help us in the future.

[ since killing kaeya because he's a suspect is at least a theory, even if they don't know if it's true or not. but it's better than nothing. ]

[outsidebones]

[she nods.]

I don't intend to hold something a shadow did against anyone. But it frustrates me not to know things.

[preowned]

Honestly? It would also just help since someone who has already killed once wouldn't need to do it again. It would help us remove a possible suspect from the list.

[outsidebones]

True. [she chews on her thumbnail.] But then, there is always the possibility that someone will realize they don't have a hostage, either, and will kill them. Kinder to kill one person than two.

[preowned]

... there really are just too many ways to look at it.

[outsidebones]

[she nods.]

But perhaps if it was truly a shadow, people would be grateful for the honesty.

[preowned]

I guess we will have to see how tomorrow goes. And at least with the price drop with the hints, we aren't forcing everyone into ticket poverty.

[outsidebones]

In a moment of excursion induced madness, I spent most of my tickets on the furby, so I will not be of great help.

[preowned]

Ah. Well, I have two, at least.

[ a pause ]

Before you ask, I bought one of the lollipops. It answers one non-murder related question, so useless for the trial but potentially useful...?

[ he does not sound extremely sure about that ]

[outsidebones]

The furby reveals all of one person's non-murder secrets.

[so. useless, but hilarious.]

[preowned]

Potentially very funny for later.

[outsidebones]

I don't play "pranks."

[however.]

I'm not against using it against someone who makes me angry.

[there is no difference.]

[preowned]

[ that's the same thing ]

We will put it to the side for now then.
