I'm giving you exactly as much credit as you deserve, and it's a lot.

[She nods, but...]

You know the weird thing? I wouldn't have even had to check him. He gave me his alignment after we all got back from... whatever that was.

[leaberator]

[ axel throws a look at shess when he tries to deflect towards himself, but-- ]

Wait, he told you he was water? After telling everyone else he was earth?

[nonbelligerent]

[live with it, axel.

also, eyebrows raised??]

[foodbin]

[She nods.]

We were talking about something... kind of related, and he said he trusted me, then he told me that. He wouldn't tell me how he did the seed thing, though.

[So that's fun.]

Which means I don't know how many other people he's told or whether I'm the only one he thinks knows, so...

[leaberator]

... I don't get it. If he's really responsible, why would he...?

[ whatttt ]

[nonbelligerent]

Reverse psychology?

[foodbin]

Or he's an asshole who really thinks I'm on his side, I guess.

[...]

He said that Four knows, too, though.

[leaberator]

... They are partners, and there were two killers.

[ just. sayin'. ]

[nonbelligerent]

Yes. Emma and I think that if Shirasu is one killer, then Four is his most likely accomplice, followed by North. If we base it off the footprints, at least.

[foodbin]

I still can't imagine North working with him.

[leaberator]

Considering how much she hates humans, it'd be weird if she worked with one...

[ so he agrees, but probably for a different reason. ]

[nonbelligerent]

It seems that way, but most of our options besides Four are implausible, unless they're partners in a role of some kind.

[foodbin]

[She shakes her head.]

No, Shirasu doesn't have a role.

[leaberator]

Four's got a role partner, though.

[ idly? ]

[nonbelligerent]

[???]

[foodbin]

...Do you know who it is? Actually, do you know what her role even does? All Lune would tell me is that it's protective in some way.

[leaberator]

Nah, he only told me the other two roles are the same. And that they're protective "with the intent to care after all of you". [ shrugs ] Going with that, I figure it's some kind of protection against the corruption, though I dunno if it's protecting people from being taken over or from being attacked by it.

[nonbelligerent]

I think I'm missing something here, so could either of you explain the roles you know?

Also, did either of you know about Four's goggles?

[please don't ask why this took so long to come up, the answer is that the ic/ooc time divide is real]

[foodbin]

I know about mine, Lea's, and that Four has one - but I don't know the exact details of hers, so.

[Hm.]

What about her goggles...?

[leaberator]

There are six total. The partner one-- which switches every week-- my whole item thing, Emma and Hisoka's, and the other two are something to do with protection. Someone would have to ask Four for details or find who else has it.

[ just. goes into simplified teaching mode immediately ]

Haven't heard anything about goggles, though.

[nonbelligerent]

She got them from her little adventure with Akane and the others back then. North told me yesterday that Four received goggles that let her stay up once on Thursday night.

And that they were supposedly used last week.

[foodbin]

...Like, when Shirasu was most likely killing Kazuaki?

[leaberator]

[ wow? wow. ]

I'm getting the sense Lune might've picked poorly on that protection role.

[nonbelligerent]

Well, Hisoka has a role...

[anyway.]

Of course, this is all taking North's word for it. But if North is innocent, she has little reason to lie.

[foodbin]

So...

[She frowns.]

We have two lie detection items. Do we want to use one on Shirasu and one on Four, or save one of them?
