[thinking.......]

How effectively could a bird do charades in a human body?

[foodbin]

Apparently he could play mobile games and administer basic first aid, so...?

[She hates this.]

[nonbelligerent]

[well then.]

Maybe ask Sol or Lune if either of those items can be replicated in the future.

[foodbin]

Right.

[...]

If we do decide it'd be the better option to go with the beads, though, I - don't think it can be me. Sorry.

[nonbelligerent]

As in, you refuse to be possessed, or you refuse to use them at all?

[foodbin]

Yeah, for me, the whole possession thing is...

[She makes a little X with her arms.]

[nonbelligerent]

Very understandable. I can't say I'm jumping to volunteer for the task either.

[foodbin]

It's kind of a thing where I'm from, but... You don't need to hear all that.

[She waves a hand.]

I bet we can find someone we both trust, if we do pick that.

[nonbelligerent]

I'd suggest Axel, but I wouldn't want to have him unconscious for that long.

[foodbin]

Me neither. And I don't really...

[Mm.]

I trust him enough to tell him, but maybe we should wait until we're more certain.

[nonbelligerent]

Do you think he'd do something reckless?

[foodbin]

No, not really, just...

He has enough to worry about, you know?

[nonbelligerent]

Yes, that's certainly true.

[foodbin]

If we do figure out it was Shirasu, though... It'd be good to tell him then, I think.

[...]

What would we do if it was him, anyways?

[nonbelligerent]

That's the question, isn't it?

One option is to take matters in our own hands. However, that puts other lives at risk, and it's a needlessly cruel move if he doesn't intend on killing further.

Another is to vote for him at trial, but then we'd have to somehow reveal this to the public.

And another option, of course, is to do nothing at all.

[foodbin]

If he did it, it'd help if we could know why, but it's not like we can just ask him that.

[She sighs.]

[nonbelligerent]

My guess would be for some kind of task, although that would then imply Lune or Sol put him up to it.

Or he knows something the rest of us don't.

[foodbin]

...I can't imagine either Lune or Sol doing that.

[She frowns.]

If it was him, I wouldn't mind telling everyone at trial.

[nonbelligerent]

Are you sure? That could put you at risk.

[foodbin]

Everyone is already at risk.

[nonbelligerent]

True.

How would you explain yourself? The lie detection?

[foodbin]

That'd probably be the easiest way. It depends on exactly how the item works, though. I don't know what it'll be yet, just that it'll help catch a lie.

[...But, wait a second.]

...Hang on, earlier you said he demonstrated he was with Earth, didn't you?

[nonbelligerent]

[...]

Did your check reveal a different element?

[foodbin]

Water. It said water.

[so, uh

yikes!]

[nonbelligerent]

Then it certainly seems there was some deception going on, doesn't it?
