speaking of against the law - who wants to talk about murders?

[samuraiwomen]

Who: :3
What: Discussing the murders of 9/12 and 9/17
When: 9/18, Evening after all classes and clubs.
Where: The common room of the dorms.
Warnings: Will update...but we're discussing a murder!




[ Some times the next day, Sara starts finding as many people as she can and asking them to please try to be in the dorms this evening. Everything has been chaotic since Clamor's death, and she'd like some clarity.

By sometime after clubs, she's moved Narumi's body out in the common room (perhaps with Akira's help if he was willing), and has started a fire in the fireplace. It's getting chillier at night, and any discussion of a murder mystery plot deserves some ambiance.

She forgot to go get some snacks, but please, feel free to bring some. ]

Right... [Since the other party is discussing that someone doesn't have a soul, and all the spellbook notes point to this...] I just... don't know how to go about doing that, I guess...?

[...]

Well, has anybody seen his ghost?

[mermaidcursed]

Ghosts don't linger here. They're...

( ... )

They're kept within the wisteria tree in the courtyard. Everyone who's died here- they're all there. But killing removing branches or flowers from the tree itself... leads to the souls connected to those flowers vanishing.

I was picking dead people out of my hair??

( STEPHANIE.............. )

I mean. I- I guess they stop being dead people once they're picked? Or something?

But it's... ... I've been told that they eventually come back. But I don't know how.

... Well, it's like any other tree, isn't it? The leaves and the flowers always fall off, but they come back. And the fallen ones make the tree healthier. Maybe that's the same, too.

[Eventually...]

Don't... [Breathes in, breathes out... squeezes his eyes shut.] Don't go plucking petals off of the tree. If something... happens...

[If they're not careful, they could damn everyone trapped there, right?]
