(open) break yourself inside out
who: Whoever wants to show up.
what: Nine body pileup, who wants to compile info.
when: 10/7, at least
where: Dorms study hall
warnings: Attempted murder over children's games
[in the afternoon, a message shows up on the forums. is she copying Natsume? utterly, since his organization is why she's thinking about this.]

Please try to set aside an hour or so of your time this evening at around 7:30 pm to return to the study hall. I'd like to speak with as many people as possible regarding the recent incident in the school.
-H.A.
[and she won't be replying to anything posted below it.
by the time the hour rolls around, Helena's set herself up in the study hall with the rolling whiteboard she took from the school set up. the markers are a toss up between colors, but the important part is there. she's seated herself by it, and when 7:30 hits, an alarm on her PDA goes off. silencing it, she stands up.]
Thank you for coming. I realize it's another demand on people's time, but given the vast scope of the murders, there's more to be said than unsaid. With it, we had no choice but to split up and find what we could, to do our best at the least to remember and categorize what we saw. Generally speaking, I'd like if we could pool our resources to see if we might draw any parallels between what was where, and if there are any peculiarities to distinguish this or that event.
With that said - [she points behind her at the whiteboard, where Rantarou has been kind enough to write out a list] - if we could try to speak individually, we could write down anything critical shared, so we could look at it from a larger perspective. As well, if something comes up in other days, we could reconvene and add in new information.
As I am unable to do it for you, please allow my dependable transcriber to do so. And a final note before we begin - if anyone becomes overly agitated, I request that you kindly step outside until you can keep your voice to a moderate level. Sound echoes well enough without yelling added to the mix.
Let's begin.

It's probably important to note the expressions that they had on their faces as well--they might have seen the person who had done this to them. Maybe even be intimately familiar, too. So it might be important to keep note who may have been close to either of them in particular.
[Which might narrow some things down, but she doesn't want to make any incorrect assumptions one way or another. Not without complete concrete proof.]
There was also a note that was handwritten that we found in 2-C; I brought it with me if anybody wants to take a look at it and see if they can identify the handwriting in any way.
[A beat as she takes the aforementioned note out and then:]
I'm also willing to check everyone's own handwriting against this as well as have someone check my own against it if we really want to clear everyone. Although I doubt that if the culprit were in this room with us that they'd use the same style, it never hurts to be thorough.
no subject
( he's kind of sighing because even if, logically, it's probably not meant that way... he's feeling a little bit targeted again by this for something that's... in his opinion? not much of a reason. )
Saihara-kun looked worried about something, and that's pretty par the course for him. Rika-chan, she seemed pretty angry. But... those are things that anybody could feel, regardless of if they knew who they were confronting or not. If it were someone they knew well, you'd think they'd be a little relieved, y'know? Or surprised.
( you know, like the last person (he) murdered in the void was. )
So why don't we start with what could've happened to them using the evidence before we start trying to guess at who.
no subject
[She sighs, pinching the bridge of her nose, but she keeps her tone even regardless. Inaba isn't here to pick a fight.]
Of course, I'm not going to say that anything is definite, just that we should be open to possibilities. That's all. If anybody is going to get mad at me for suggesting that someone in here could have done it, that's fine, but it isn't as if I know all the facts, either. And to be honest, I'd rather clear people for these kills than accuse people outright.
Besides, sometimes you have to work backwards to find the truth of the matter.
... But if we're going to start from there, while it does look like they were pushed, it most likely didn't happen where we found them. The area was too strangely clean.
no subject
( says the guy who considered himself very close to both of them, so it didn't exactly sound as general as she's claiming to his ears. not the point though. )
Working backwards, we should start with the strongest evidence first, then we'll see how the rest ties in. Anything you noticed about their injuries, and where we did find the rest of the evidence, 'cause the two of you got a better look at the scene than I did.
When everyone hears about that, I'm sure they can put two and two together, don't you think?
no subject
[don't be so heated...]
Was the rest of the evidence in 2-C? Where you guys found the note?
no subject
[Another sigh, although it's not necessarily directed at anyone else but herself. She knows when to back off on a clear point that's being made. There's no animosity in her voice in the slightest, just something a little apologetic.
But then she hears Subaru cut in, pauses, and then speaks up again, a little more thoughtfully:]
The classroom itself was splattered in blood-- actually, hold on.
[She turns the page of her notebook and sketches out the classroom and draws a circle in the area where the blood's location was at--between the desk and the center and marks that it was a linear splatter from the front and back of the classroom.
Basically, a drawn description of this.]
Does this help?
