let's talk motive

[herbgrace]

[Lithuania brought cake today! Vanilla with buttercream frosting. She also brought milk. And napkins.]

This seems to be the perfect motive for wrath.

[dereban]

So Clover or Dhaos... [ Since she's obviously excluding herself out of the picture. ]

I honestly can't disagree that this motive would fit wrath nicely.

[ But thank goodness the cake isn't a lie. ] For the record, as pissed off as I am towards Heartseed, I wouldn't kill for revenge.

[herbgrace]

You may have to prepare for being a suspect, however. It's not as if you can explain that you're not wrath anymore. [So make sure your alibi is good.]

...What is Heartseed, anyway? [Will you explain in here?]

[dereban]

Maybe. [ A shrug. ] I can probably take footage of Thursday evening on my laptop, just in case. Don't know how many people would believe me, considering that my profile lays out my 'computer skills'.

As for what Heartseed is, hell if I know. I guess the picture is of the plant that it's associated with because I... don't know what it is. Or who. I've only told one other person about this, and hell if he believed me, but it's a being that, back home, was messing- [ Correction: ] is messing, with me and my fellow club members in the StuCS. I don't know if they stopped because I'm no longer there, though, but I was definitely part of an experiment.

[herbgrace]

I suppose the buddy system won't be seen as especially credible after last week. [Lithuania is still planning on sticking with Poland at night, though.]

What sort of things is it doing?

[dereban]

Not if it was just a single person. [ It would have to be three people in a room. Harder to dissuade someone like that. ]

If it were three people in a room, it'd be something that's more solid. As for what it did -- well, let's just say I got experience being my male friends for a bit.

[muties]

[ Cake > motive. Though she looks a little sad at the cake. She will eat it in Jane Crocker's name, like the weirdo she is. ]

I would think so, unless someone else has crazy issues with someone to the point of murder.

[herbgrace]

Honestly, that could be possible as well. Pride is another option--if someone wronged them, they might want to make it a point to get back at them--but wrath came to mind first.

[jackhole]

[ oh. cake. okay. through a mouth full of cake: ]

Envy and Pride too. Someone swiped something from you, hate 'em for daaaaays. Someone treated you with disrespect, dead to you. That kinda thing.

[ nom nom cake ]

[princessantly]

That doesn't narrow down potential suspects very much, then... [ oh boy. ]

[herbgrace]

Honestly, most of the sins could be connected to wanting revenge on someone for some reason or another. It may be we have to look in more general ways if we want to try to predict anything this way. [But really their predictions haven't been too off over the weeks they've attempted it.]

[princessantly]

What about the reactions when the motive was revealed? If anyone looked incredibly angry, or...

A Thing on Thursday-!

[dereban]

[ Tonight, ladies and one gentleman, there is one very, very pale Inaba Himeko entering the room. She is shaking out of fear and tonight is not her night at all whatsoever. ]

I'm... gonna punch the bastard who took it. [ She is absolutely livid, dear lord. Someone please calm her down because she is emanating a rather frustrated aura. ]

[muties]

If it's your virginity, I don't think that's gonna help.

[ said from where she's sitting on the floor, not even looking up. ]

[dereban]

It's not. It's... my notepad. I left my room for a bit, but then I realized I forgot it and went back to get it to only find that it's gone.

[ She swears that she didn't misplace it; she's not the type of girl who would do such a thing. At least, that's what she thinks. ]

[muties]

[ See that's not as funny. ]

Oh. Was your room locked?

[dereban]

I'm the paranoid sort. So yes, I locked it. [ She's pretty certain of that much. ]

I always lock it when I go out and when I'm inside. That notebook's actually pretty important to me, since it contains my notes, ciphers, and drawings -- plus I keep track of the pages I tear out, too.

[herbgrace]

Do you have any idea when it might have been stolen? [Do you know the excuses she had to make to Poland to get here on Thursday night of all nights... She wouldn't do this for anyone but you guys.] Maybe we could try to--well. I could try to find it. [She's worried enough about you lot being out right now!]

post-trial

[herbgrace]

[Lithuania has managed to keep her composure in public, so she allows it to slip a little here--she settles more heavily than usual into her usual seat. Bad fevers are always exhausting. Still, they have things to discuss.]

It should be fine if I spend time with Himeko, and if she spends time with Alisha and Roxy. We shouldn't spend an unusual amount of time all in one group. It's best if your anime club is just with them. It isn't as if I've spent an unusual amount of time with Alisha and Roxy outside of this room. I simply didn't know whose room I was escorting Himeko to, and Roxy and Alisha didn't know I would be escorting her. [SIMPLE, HOPEFULLY.] We need to not act too bothered by the accusations, as well.

...How is everyone holding up? [Including you, Miata!]

[princessantly]

[ Alisha can only nod mutely-- although she's at least been trying to fuss over the others. Water glasses for everyone!

And of course she's a little bothered, because she can understand Astrid's frustration, but what bothers her most is... ]

... That trial... Lucy didn't deserve that fate.

[herbgrace]

She didn't. [Lithuania agrees.] It's up to us to make sure Miata can reverse it.

[dereban]

Agreed.

[ Inaba just lights up, full of smiles. ] I actually have a plan for this week considering the anime club and plan on making it an open trial period - that is, if the motive doesn't, y'know. Fuck with us. Or at least--

[ glances at Alisha ] -- most of the others.

[herbgrace]

Lately we've had less psychological motives. [Maybe that will continue! Or maybe it just means they're gearing up for another round of mind alteration.] It's too bad we can't recruit more people to this group. [The mole one, not the anime club one.]

[dereban]

Just because we've had less of them doesn't mean that they can't go back.

[ Just keeping that in mind. ] I mean, I'd like to have at least one or two people maximum if we went that route. As it is right now, there's a 20% chance that one of us is going to die this week. Of course, that percentage might go down, depending on who's protected tomorrow.

[ SHE SWEARS IF IT'S ONE OF THE TWO BOYS WHO GOT SCARRED she will be laughing internally. She needs to apologize to them later, anyway. ]
