Oh, you should've just let them beat each other up. Claude deserves it for all the trouble he puts me through.

[ there's no actual malice in her feelings. she pours him some tea—a calming chamomile today.

though... neither of them seem to really need it. ]


I'm fine—I just got out of a nice chat with Shima.

[ I HATE THEM A LOT anyway everyone here is too nice to claude so someone has to pick up the slack. thanks, hua cheng? ]

He told me Fox was the one who told him to do it. I don't know him well, but I see any reason he has to lie to me, either.

[ shima did show most of his cards after he was caught, anyway. ]

Aww—what, you figured it out? I didn't get the team right...

[ SHIMA DESERVES BETTER THAN THIS CONVERSATION or maybe this is karma for being a perv? ]

Mm, I did start spreading word about the deaths last week, but it apparently wasn't enough to get everyone on track today. [ people even mentioned splintering during the trial, which was... more than she anticipated, actually. ] I was a little worried they'd spend more time looking for us than anyone else.

[ hilda's emotions... they're not strong, but they're there. she doesn't make an effort to hide a slight sense of defeat, of tragedy. but in the end, what can she do about it besides make tea and keep trying?

she's tired, but for once it's not enough excuse to do nothing. ]


I think some people just aren't in the loop, but it should be easier to figure out once people realize that Shima didn't kill everyone so far.

Even if his motives did sound very similar to mine.

No—I think he had the same experience I did. Get pulled aside, told a specific target, and get rid of them before the splintering can spread to other people.

[ that much really did seem to fit the bill for both of them. ]

But I do wonder why there wasn't any sign of it ahead of time... Maybe we just missed it.

It didn't seem quite the same, but maybe... If anything, now I wish we'd caught Raven's murderer.

[ she hums right alongside him, lifting her teacup to her lips. ]

Izumo's nightmare stood out as weird to me, too. Like maybe it was a clue that Shima was one of the killers—they seem pretty close.
