I get it. The whole thing was... a lot. [ she's not sure how else to describe it so she takes a sip of her tea. ]

[shiftingwinds]

It... certainly was.

[endorsi might have had the right idea, honestly - but shi qingxuan couldn't bring herself to leave, given that fukuda was only in there because of the votes.]

[alteracion]

And we're still not any closer to finding any of the other killers.

[ sighs. drinks! her tea! annoyed!! ]

[shiftingwinds]

It felt like we were getting close, though. At the trial.

[alteracion]

You think so? [ tell her your theories sqx wow ]

[shiftingwinds]

...well, it's just. What Mollymauk and Gu Yun were saying about Fukuda, it made sense! We know now that it wasn't right, but...

[at the time it had finally seemed like it did, between his behavior and the way steven's head being bashed in would have covered up any distinctive drilling.]

[alteracion]

Honestly? I didn't think he was clever enough to do any kind of cover up or lying.

[ ruthlessly, about a dead man. ]

[shiftingwinds]

[don't laugh at a dead man don't laugh at a dead man


she manages not to laugh at a dead man.]

It's easy to act dumber than you are - I'll admit, there were times when I thought just how... dense he could be had to be an act.

[alteracion]

You'd think so, right? But if that was the case, I don't think he'd have been so obvious about liking our killers, like Grell and the robot.

[ also, he drilled a hole in his own head, but grace was trying very hard not to judge him by the giant hole in his head before learning the details of it ]

[shiftingwinds]

That's true...

[mmmgh.]

But, he wasn't the only one with hand and feet in the sizes that we were looking for - he was just the one whose hands and feet fit and whose behavior seemed most suspicious. So that's somewhere to start, at least, if we intend to pursue this still.

[she feels like it's highly relevant to know who among them has been killing.]

[alteracion]

Hands might work, but with feet... between Ming Yi's boots and the clown shoes, can we really use any of that?

[shiftingwinds]

...I think we might. The clown shoes - if whoever was wearing them had feet that were too small, they'd just slip out of them, right? They wouldn't have been able to wear them well enough to leave a clean print. You'd probably see skidding, or their actual footprint somewhere if it just came off.

So I still feel like the feet would have to be a certain size to see what was left behind.

[alteracion]

We didn't have time to check the actual size of the clown shoes, though, right? They come in different sizes on the inside but are huge on the outside, isn't it?

[ let's pretend grace knows clowns enough to know this ]

[shiftingwinds]

They do?

[shi qingxuan does not know shit about clowns, my dude.]

[alteracion]

[ turns out i wasn't quite right so: ]

I have no idea. I've never met a real clown.

[shiftingwinds]

[douman is right there]

Are they only in... circuses, like the one here?

[alteracion]

Sort of. Some kids get them for their birthday parties, but my parents weren't really into the idea.

[ very dismissive in tone ]

[shiftingwinds]

And that's... entertaining?

[the circus just seems creepy to her.]

[alteracion]

Yes? [ unsure. she's not a fan of clowns she's A Grown Up ] They do balloon animals? I have no idea.

[shiftingwinds]

To each their own, I suppose...

[...]

Oh, I think White used to sell balloons. Maybe he would know about clowns?

[alteracion]

Yeah, maybe! You should ask him. [ he'll hate it probably and that's funny. ]

[shiftingwinds]

Hmm... maybe I will.

[alteracion]

Good.

[ :3 but anyway: ]

Clowns aside, I think the most likely answer to who framed your boyfriend is Vlad.

[ grace is assuming heterosexuality based on near nothing evidence, it's fine ]

[shiftingwinds]

Sorry, my what?

[alteracion]

Your... Ming Yi?

that's not what she said earlier ]
