♪ my class trial, our class trial ♫

Who: Everyone + Hiro if ori wants
When: January 12th, then anytime past January 15th
Where: Common Room
What: please let's wake steph and also maybe prove miyuki innocent if he really is
Warnings: tbd

[there is no gentle way to do this on the pda.

but you know what that is perfectly fine they were doing CSI rp earlier what's one more--]


All hands, round up.

Think we've got as much as we can right now, so let's settle in and work it out -- together. Come to the usual meet-up spot as soon as you can, and we're not leaving until the perp's worked out. Bring your own joe and a wit sharp as can be, because we are in for the long haul.

Detective Akamatsu, signing out.


[...

a-anyway.

meng yao's done his best to preserve one (1) stephanie meanswell and she's currently laying on the couch in a state some may find familiar and others not at all, but she's very much alive -- if barely. have your shock and surprise, this is going to be once all evidence is collected icly. also after noah and kaede make a grave for miss vp god rest her soul.

...

hiro is allowed to be here, if he wants, if only because part of this is his sister's death and one of y'all had BETTER take care of him.

there are no snacks, no drinks unless you byoj (bring your own joe), and kaede will wait until... all or presumably all are filed in before she speaks.]


I hate to say this, but you all are easily more experienced with this than I am... Still, there's no reason to wait on this when one of our classmates has turned up dead, and another [she is assuming stephanie is theirs] is in the state that she is. I don't want to think one of us had anything to do with it, but turning away from the truth only invites more pain--

So let's lay out what we know and try not to go at each others' throats about it.

[please. even the most unbelievable, impossible happenings have roots to them, and she wants it solved -- not just for hiro's sake, who's pain is something she can barely imagine, but for stephanie and the vice principal, too.]

He might've not had a CHOICE, Little Bu... ( ...her grimace... ) Stephanie-chan.

( ...natsume has to look at her. he does. he has to because she deserves it. )

Ishimaru-kun mentioned finding an arm on the fourth FLOOR, one he thinks could only belong to Sportacus-san based on its musculaTURE.

[she held up through subaru. through nene. and then her world dies.]

His.

[she pushes herself off the couch. stumbling a bit, colt-like, but keeping her balance, just barely. not looking at anything but the floor.]

... Whose blood is this?
closewithnewintown: (am I crazier than other patients?)

[personal profile] closewithnewintown 2022-01-17 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
I wanna help.

[a pause.]

... I don't know how. I don't remember anything else.

( if it's taking care of her little sister? she could never mind at all. nene stands, holding out her hand again. )

just for a little bit, okay? and then we'll get to the bottom of this.

( like, five minutes tops. hopefully nothing will be on fire? )
closewithnewintown: (of just one pair)

[personal profile] closewithnewintown 2022-01-17 09:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[she pauses, clearly reluctant, like the brief amount of time spent changing could be what stands between success and failure...

but, she takes her hand. she doesn't want to know whose blood this is.]

[personal profile] mermaidcursed 2022-01-17 09:40 pm (UTC)(link)
( nene leads stephanie out, back to her room... time for a costume change. ... sportacus didn't use this room, did he? so everything should be exactly as crona and stephanie left it. ... stephanie's diary is still hidden somewhere in her own room. she'll have to ask if she wants it back. )
closewithnewintown: (for little miss perfect)

[personal profile] closewithnewintown 2022-01-17 09:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[she sits down on her bed, hands folded in her lap. there's just. a lot of information to process when her brain cpu is at 99% just trying to keep her shit together. already missing the sweet embrace of oblivion.]

Did they die, too? Or disappear? [she didn't see a few faces, but crona's had been the one she actually looked for.]
mermaidcursed: (097)

[personal profile] mermaidcursed 2022-01-17 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
( nene nods. types. )

disappeared. no body was ever found. ( a brief pause- ) you don't have to be alone at night if you don't want to, okay?
closewithnewintown: (while the wheels in my head)

[personal profile] closewithnewintown 2022-01-17 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
... I don't really know what I want.

[she's pretty sure she never wants to sleep again.]

I... I'm sorry. [stares at her hands] I thought... I never wanted to hurt anybody. I wanted everyone to be free.
mermaidcursed: (105)

[personal profile] mermaidcursed 2022-01-18 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
i know.

( and nene reaches for stephanie, holding her tight- blood doesn't matter, but stephanie always will. she had hoped she'd come home for so long... and now she is, but she still can't unclench her jaw, summon her voice. nene looks her in the eye for a long moment before hugging her again. ... stephanie's going to get a lot of hugs, forever, sorry. )

( can't be an ultimate's or komaeda would have gone nuts

natsume's voice softens, but just in the way people do when they're sympathetic. not because she's a child, not because he isn't taking her seriously, because he understands maybe a little more than most people right now. )


Unless you're grievously injured someWHERE, probably not YOURS.

( ... )

The little lamb might be right it was a TRADE, but Akamatsu-san has a point: we're still figuring things OUT.

[personal profile] closewithnewintown 2022-01-17 09:13 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm... [her voice cracks. she takes a deep breath.] I'm not hurt. My head hurts, but...

[time to put all emotions in the emotions box until later or never that's the healthy response.]

The trade thing doesn't sound right. If you trade somebody for somebody else, wouldn't you take the whole thing? I'm not... I know I'm little, but I'm not worth only three-fourths of a grown-up. Something else must've happened.

( right you are stephanie, later it is, otherwise you start biting everyone to talks to you at a meeting and have to go apologize for it later )

Then it's up to us to figure out what did, isn't IT? ( ... ) But you don't have to speak up unless you feel like it from now ON. You must be TIRED.

( emotionally. not physically, though maybe there's some of that from whatever happened, but emotionally. )
closewithnewintown: (I’d be fonder of the world that I live)

[personal profile] closewithnewintown 2022-01-17 09:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[shakes head]

I already wasted enough time. [being. trapped in the shadow realm?] There's nothing more important than figuring out who did this.

[she's not even in the top ten.]

Bzzt.

( wrong. yes he makes the sound. )

You're more imporTANT. Sportacus-san'd want you to take care of yourself first TOO, and make sure you're alright before you started into anything ELSE. ( ...

probably. he had that kind of softness about stephanie, even with his confidence in her. he relates. )
Get cleaned up and CRY. You aren't the only one who's done that today and still had to sit down for a meeting with a bunch of chickens running around with their heads cut-off until something STICKS.
closewithnewintown: (of just one pair)

[personal profile] closewithnewintown 2022-01-17 09:45 pm (UTC)(link)
But... [ugh. she hates when people are right. especially when she knows she's wrong.]

... Why were you crying?
crystallomancy: (104)

[personal profile] crystallomancy 2022-01-17 09:54 pm (UTC)(link)
( ...he hadn't—

well, shit. natsume hesitates, grimacing; he hates showing weakness, and crying is that, and he can't just say he didn't because that sort of nulls his whole little thing he just said to her and lessens it and—

his voice is back to stiff, but it's very much a "forcing it to be controlled and composed" sort of stiffness. )


Maya-chan was one of our dead toDAY. Regardless of your or anyone else's feelings on HER, she was important to ME. I helped Hiyori-kun take her down from the ceiLING. ( "important to me" is a fine, vague cover. ) It was a little more difficult than I was expecting it to BE. That's ALL.

( He's. Fine. He's fine. Going to help Hiro murder someone, but fine. )
closewithnewintown: (I wonder if everything’s bleak)

[personal profile] closewithnewintown 2022-01-17 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh. [oh, poor hiro--]

Wait. The ceiling?

... It wasn't a person that did all of this. There's no way.
crystallomancy: (121)

[personal profile] crystallomancy 2022-01-17 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I find it hard to believe someone could nail a girl to a ceiling too without some significant strength or proper rigging TOO, but we do have some people who aren't ordinaRY.

( not naming any non-human names here but. )

We'll talk more about it when you come back THOUGH. ( ...

shoo go get better clothes and a hug from nene, he'll have to go participate in the whole other-victims-unit in a second here too. )
