♪ 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.]

...Memory issues, how common in every murder mystery.

( because now it leads to a dead end, but he sighs softly. having been accused, he's not all too happy, having said his murder was a failure is a crime to hope itself, and he would never fail so this isn't him!

... )


My voice, hm... the last thing we need is two Komaeda-kun's running around. Went through a portal and wiped your memory clean, huh?
closewithnewintown: (am I crazier than other patients?)

[personal profile] closewithnewintown 2022-01-17 09:00 pm (UTC)(link)
[shakes head] No, there's just you. You called me back. I just don't know... It was from somewhere, wasn't it? I can't have been nowhere.
commences: (pic♯14928546)

[personal profile] commences 2022-01-17 09:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Ever since we returned, a few people were missing... like Seki-kun, Kudo-san, and the like. We had to find ways to bring them back, who knew you'd have such ill-will towards your supposed killer that all it'd take was to call your name.

( now that's hilarious, even though komaeda doesn't recall killing her, and he always remembers his murders for hope. he blinks, looking off to the side to see how everyone else is faring. )

You told me not to leave if I killed you, do you think I'd be afraid of getting caught if that was the case.

( that said, he'll sigh. )

Why would you need to be in the bathroom, you told me you were making taffy, but instead... you were making a summoning ritual...?
closewithnewintown: (I ponder whether I think)

[personal profile] closewithnewintown 2022-01-17 09:19 pm (UTC)(link)
You haven't made a speech yet, so I'm pretty sure you didn't actually try to kill me.

... Kinda? I was trying to open the door. To get wherever the evil thing that runs this place lives. I tried to protect myself, but I think a helmet might've been better than salt.
commences: (pic♯14928484)

[personal profile] commences 2022-01-17 09:43 pm (UTC)(link)
...Well, you have been missing for a few months. I could have made a speech.

( she might have to ask some of the people here, komaeda would never miss out on a chance to talk about hope. actually, what happened here is hope, they just need more information before he can understand the meaning behind it. hope for natsume? hope for... who was dating vp? )

Now, that you can talk... I want you to go over this information with Meng Yao and Yashiro-san... they both deal with spirits, so I'm thinking something along that lines happened to you, but... they have familiar stories to help you with your memory.

( since she was doing summonings. )
closewithnewintown: (I have the tools to dig)

[...]

I got punched out by a ghost?
commences: (pic♯14928501)

[personal profile] commences 2022-01-17 09:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Probably. It's why I'm sending you to the experts.

( looks at the experts, can they tell if there's like... ghost pains on her or something!! )

[personal profile] filialdeception 2022-01-17 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
At the time when I chanced a look at her spirit's condition, I don't recall there being the remnants of ghostly interference clinging to her.

Though of course that doesn't mean that there wasn't.
commences: (pic♯14928501)

[personal profile] commences 2022-01-17 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Now that she's awake and aware, maybe you can do one more check, just to be sure.

( can't rule out any possibilities, but also... )

She was trying to summon something by using salt, but she's lost majority of her memories afterwards. Is that a spirit problem, too?
filialdeception: (132)

[personal profile] filialdeception 2022-01-17 10:43 pm (UTC)(link)
I will do so.

[ It should be relatively simple.

But then he'll look thoughtful at the question. ]


Potentially. Depending on what she summoned, it could've affected her state. The being she summoned could've just decided to take her memories as the price for it being brought forth. Salt wouldn't be enough to complete the summoning ritual either way.
closewithnewintown: (of walls that used to confine)

[personal profile] closewithnewintown 2022-01-17 10:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Salt protects you from evil stuff! [said with the complete certainty of someone who watches too many bad movies.]
filialdeception: (51)

[personal profile] filialdeception 2022-01-17 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, it can, but...

You said you were doing a summoning of some sort, right? Summonings aren't a simple one and done procedure.

[ In his opinion, anyway. ]

Also, may I see your hand for a moment? I may as well check to see if there's any hint of a ghost's presence clinging to you.
closewithnewintown: (and I can't stop it)

[personal profile] closewithnewintown 2022-01-17 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)
I wasn't trying to summon anything. I was trying to open a door. Then something hit me.

[holds out both hands]
filialdeception: (131)

[personal profile] filialdeception 2022-01-17 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
...Alright.

[ Well, he can't quite keep up with every single conversation in here, so he'll leave it at that.

Either way, he'll take her hands carefully. Then, he'll check to see if there is anything strange. He didn't recall sensing the negativity he sensed in Keigo from before, but he is going to see if there are trace amounts of spiritual anomalies/coming into contact with a ghost, particularly a possible resentful one. ]


Where were you hit, by the way? On your head from behind?

closewithnewintown: (the good faith that's been wasted)

[personal profile] closewithnewintown 2022-01-18 01:21 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah! I didn't see any reflections in the mirror, but I was kinda distracted by it being so weird.

[oriquote: spiritually it's like the soul's been wounded but it's healing, like there's something missing but there aren't any extra traces of ghosts or spiritual energy or that sort of thing. like for npckun's soul it's like a skinned knee with gravel stuck inside, but for stephanie it's more like a papercut, shallow and focused.]

[personal profile] filialdeception 2022-01-18 11:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ... hm ]

No sign of ghosts or spiritual energy, but it looks to me a small portion of your soul had been wounded—though only by a tidbit.

What Komaeda said doesn't seem to be inaccurate, though...

[ About her being attacked by something supernatural that is capable of wounding her, that is. Though, he is thinking that it isn't exactly a ghost. Though 'what' is another question entirely. ]
closewithnewintown: (day of the week)

[personal profile] closewithnewintown 2022-01-20 04:59 am (UTC)(link)
Is that why my head hurts? [frowns] If I got hit months ago, why does it still hurt?
