Day 6 - Final discussion before the second execution

[pandatrash]

[This morning, a video of Tycoon auto-plays on everyone's tablets. He is in a dimly lit room, and seems to be eating pudding out of a bicycle horn...? Whatever, the raccoons are weird.]

Today’s the day! Are you pumped up? Psyched out? Pissed off? Done in? Hehehehe!

Everybody better vote today for who you want to be PUNISHED! If you don't vote by the time the timer reaches zero, your vote will be randomized! Just like it now says in the rules!

I, Tycoon (only Tycoon), will still answer one question per person if you haven’t cashed yours in yet! Rule clarifications are free, by the way! Also, quit freaking out about the people who are off crying in their rooms or whatever! You already have all the alibis you need to solve the mystery!

[ right, tsumugi's gonna make himself useful in the final stretch of this investigation because he just can't handle the nitty-gritty of it all. he's not too main character-y for any of that.

and it might be the toughest job yet, because he's seated at one of the long tables of the cafeteria with the copy of Fifty Shades of Grey that he'd retrieved from caius, brow knitted in sheer frustration as he forces himself to read the entire thing while taking down notes on the possible murder techniques the killer could've used on the victim.

when he does pause at taking down notes though he'll make all sorts of faces as he turn one page to another because oh my god. oh my god this is so bad. someone fucking save him ]

[theyregooddogs]

[shoving the book shut with one hand, it's a loud thud]

Stop that.

[fineprinted]

EEK--!

[ ALMOST JUMPS IN HIS SEAT IN FRIGHT but then finds out that it's will, ok ]

Wh-Why? It wasn't so bad...!

[theyregooddogs]

It's bad. It's always bad. Don't visualize it.

[cluelesscavewoman]

[Side characters unite!

And by that, she's taken to sitting in the cafeteria after going back to the weapons closet to get a spear. She's now got a sheathed sword on one side and a spear awkwardly on the other. If it was a spear from home she could attach it to her harness but alas.

Also, her legs are pretty much covered in glitter now.

...And she's just staring at him from across the room. Then she walks over.]

Are you alright?

[fineprinted]

[ he didn't notice futayo until she speaks up, so excuse him while he takes a good look at her... strange get-up... gurl ]

I'd ask the same thing to you, Futayo-chan. Having fun?

[ THIS ISN'T FUN, TSUMUGI ]

[cluelesscavewoman]

[Are you expecting the girl who turned up in the bodysuit with an armored skirt combo to have any fashion sense? The armor is a brighter blue than your highlights.]

I found a room filled with weapons. But Tonbokiri is not there...

[That's a no then.]

You look ill.

[respendent]

Tsumugi-kun! I need you to ask a robot a question.

[fineprinted]

Eh? Why me?

[respendent]

You're the person most likely to do as I ask!

[wolfsbaneandtears]

... Why are you reading that?

[fineprinted]

Trying to contribute to the investigation, since I'm not too smart enough to handle deductions and the dead bodies.

[ all said without looking up from his book and notes ]

Me and the others found an arm that's holding on to this book, so I figured that it may have a clue in here somewhere...

[wolfsbaneandtears]

That's a godo plan.

Are there any marks on the pages? Or mysterious numbers -- book ciphers are an old way of passing on information.

[suppressthedark]

[TSUMUGI, NO

Ichigo takes a seat next to him and just. Quietly closes it on him.]

...I don't think you need to do that.

[fineprinted]

Eh? Why not?

[ you're a member of the lit club too, nerd ]

[suppressthedark]

[He doesn't read badly written porn, Tsumugi!]

Because I don't really think there's any clues in it about the murder.

[Unless, god forbid, you're reading it for fun]

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

Everything else here wasn't torturing you enough?

[fineprinted]

It's fine. Nothing else can hurt me at this point.

[ still not looking up from the book, he's just so focused in this ]

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

There is something to be said for going out on your own terms.

[eternalballad]

[ ..... what are you doing.

He'll look over at him, raising a brow in a silent query. ]

[fineprinted]

[ he doesn't notice the staring until two pages later - ]

Ah-! Hello. You need something?

[locktouching]

[Sitting not far away, reading Space Raptor Butt Invasion.]

[fineprinted]

[ doesn't notice him until a couple of pages later - ]

Oh! Um, excuse me... Where did you get that book?

[ he thought he had already taken care of the books that had survived the burning...... ]

[loveandwillpower]

[ Reading over his shoulder because look. Look, she doesn't need to explain her motives. ]

What's all this inner goddess stuff?

[fineprinted]

[ if tsumugi were drinking something right now he would've spat it out at minako's question ]

Oh! Um... It's basically her inner thoughts, you see. Outside she wants to be as nonchalant as possible but her inner goddess reveals her true thoughts like... wanting to do these things to the guy...

[ PLEASE DON'T MAKE HIM EXPLAIN THIS?! ]
