MINI-EVENT DISCUSSION TIME [open]

[trialbyliar]

WHO: Everyone!!
WHEN: April 25th, 6PM
WHAT: Who wants to talk about ~murder~?

[There's a strong part of Kokichi that wants to keep everything he's figured out to himself, especially knowing the "winner" of this mystery will gain a ton of bonus points that could throw a serious wrench into his plans. He tends to work alone, after all.

But fortunately, there's a louder, more pragmatic part that knows everyone needs to come together. Whatever the game is here, no rules have been given. It doesn't seem like they're gonna force everyone together to figure things out. And maybe that's the point – no forced teamwork this time around, a prize to discourage people from working together. This whole setup seems designed to have them all working against each other.

Well, fuck that. The status quo is just gonna get more people killed. It's time to herd some cats and get everyone on the same page. If nothing else, it's a way to learn anything others might have figured out, and a chance to see who here has a working brain.]

--–

[Every transfer student will find an unsigned note in their lockers that reads "transfer students meeting @ 6pm 4/25 in classroom 2-C".

When they arrive at the set location and time, they'll find extra desks have been shoved in from other classrooms so there's seating for everyone. On the chalkboard, written in big bubble letters, is "SUPER FUN MURDER DISCUSSION PARTY TIME!!" with some goofy doodles around the edges. This is very serious, guys. One corner of the room has a square taped off on the floor with a single desk situated inside it, a sign taped to it reading "Crazy Containment Zone". A piece of paper on the desk says "reserved for Komaeda".

No one takes credit for organizing everything. But regardless, it's time to have a discussion.]



((HOW THIS WORKS:

- This post is a free for all! Feel free to start your own threads to discuss any clue/topic/theory/random outburst you want. Jump into any thread anywhere, no need to keep things tidy and continuous. This is gonna be a big group crammed into a classroom all talking at once, so just embrace the chaos.

- Please let the people who discovered clues OOCly be the ones to reveal them ICly! You can assume things have already been explained for the sake of discussing other clues and proposing theories and whatnot, just please don't steal anyone's thunder when it comes to explaining the things their characters figured out!

That's it! Let me know if you have any other concerns or guidelines to consider adding, just shoot me a PM or hit me up on plurk or discord! Have fun!))

[SIGHS because she's right, and in a room full of mostly sleep-deprived teens on bad diets........]

You're not wrong... but I don't think that means we should just assume someone will act alone, or that we should give up on this option. We don't have the full picture of what happened yet, and it would be incredibly short-sighted for someone to give up a possible lead to those in charge here just for some merit points. [just do your fucking homework instead ffs]

Most of the information is already out there, unfortunately, so we can't do much to stop it if someone decides to go rouge. What we can do... hmm, if we all show what our merit points are at before we leave here today, then we can check the numbers again if something happens to our culprit. 300 points won't be easy to use up quickly, so it should be obvious who claimed it.

[filialdeception]

Begging your pardon, what would you expect to be done to that person, provided everyone decided to cooperate in that scenario in the first place?

[closewithnewintown]

We could put them in a garbage can. [a tried and true method of dealing with bullies.]

[filialdeception]

I suppose that's an option.

[ He said that simply, but he's smiling, actually kind of a little amused. ]

[loyalbreed]

I believe that there is a saying, that reads much like this: Stitches get snitches!

[ He is so proud please. This is the most canon ic gawain response I have done in reference to Fate Extra. ]

[mermaidcursed]

( softly...) I-It's "Snitches get stitches"...

[loyalbreed]

Is that not what I said?

[mermaidcursed]

Y-You got the words mixed up a bit.

( why does she feel threatened )

1/2

[loyalbreed]

I see. How unfortunate!!! [ He blushes, but its okay. No one will see his momentary foolishness he will immediately perk back up in .1 seconds ]

[loyalbreed]

You have my thanks Miss Nene! Where would I be without your guidance!

[mermaidcursed]

( pat pat )

[filialdeception]

[ ... oh my god, Gawain.

Meng Yao hadn't even heard the correct version of that, so he's taking it - for a precious few seconds until someone corrected the other - as the proper one for a moment. Even if it does sound kind of funny. ]

I don't believe I've ever heard of a saying like that back home, but I can understand the sentiment behind it.

[loyalbreed]

I am ashamed that I had stated it in such a wrong way, forgive me good sir. Yet the sentiment as you say, remains.

[commences]

You could put them with trash like me, it seems like a reasonable choice given certain students desks were pushed over with mine.

( natsume... norton came willingly... )

[filialdeception]

[ ...Goodness, they sure had some unique individuals here. He's not going to get accustomed to anyone calling themselves 'trash' for a while still.

That said, it's been well into the meeting at this point so at least it's not entirely unexpected now. ]

...I'm afraid it's hard to consider fellow captives as 'trash', to start with, but your suggestion has surely been noted.

[commences]

( of course, his eyes slowly glance over to who's speaking to him, and there's this slow blink as he takes in the man's appearance. komaeda's seen him around in here, and he seems to be pretty good at mediating if he recalls correctly. he smiles, keeping his eyes on the other as he raises a hand to point to himself. )

It's no good if you can't see that I'm an insignificant and worthless human, especially even now. ( sighs, he's literal trash! garbage! )

Haha, to reassure you, I won't share my identity with just anyone.

[crystallomancy]

( Stop Putting Him In The Same Category As You )

[crystallomancy]

(　HE CHANGED DESKS TO GET AWAY FROM THE CCZ HE WAS SO WRONGFULLY PLACED IN NONE OF YOU ARE GOING TO BECOME HIS NEW ECCENTRIC BRETHREN )

[commences]

( COME BACK BROTHER. YOU'RE PART OF THE CCZ.

komaeda pushing natsume's desk back in the quarantine. )

[crystallomancy]

( if komaeda wants to get stabbed he's fast on his way to getting an omiai with the scalpel natsume stole from science class. )

[commences]

( want to try your luck? you're willing to try because he's still pushing natsume's desk over until it connects with his and shuichi's own. yes, he's building an empire.

STAB HIM! STAB HIM! STAB HIM! )

[crystallomancy]

( he's not going to stab him, he doesn't deserve the honor.

the only good thing about komaeda being this close to him is that natsume can go ahead and just (try to) kick him in the shin, fuck you )

[commences]

( look at that luck coming through, he's avoided a stabbing!

ok, listen, he may have kicked him, but you know!! he's dying anyway. )

— ow now, no need to react like a child!

[crystallomancy]

I'm not reacting like a CHILD. ( yes he is. ) Don't get your crazy all over ME. The only reason I've been arbitrarily assigned to this quarter is because someone doesn't believe in the existence of maGIC. HonestLY, it's as if the Chambre Ardente has been reVIVED.



( i mean the chambre ardente also existed for other reasons but )

[dereban]

Making assumptions will always make an ass of someone, it's true. And to be honest, it's possible that anybody who potentially gives a story, whether it's true or not to get the merit points may be obvious... it's possible that they may not care if they're obvious or not.

They're just using it because they're desperate to get what they want and have an advantage over others or because they believe it's better for their survival.
