Okay. We were all brought to this... underwater city, but we could breathe without needing any masks. Each of us had to pick someone to come with us that gave us new abilities, I got a snowboard that let me summon ice and snow.
Shirasu had some kind of pendulum that could attach anywhere, even to open air. That came in handy later.
[She shrugs.]
We didn’t get to keep the weapons we got at first, but we all got rewards afterwards. You’ll have to ask the others if you want to know what they grabbed, but mine was an item that’ll let us summon somebody’s ghost.
It’s for a limited time, and they have to possess someone here in order to speak through them. Well, speak might not be the right word, since they... can’t actually talk while they’re here.
If we have a list of names we’ve narrowed a suspect down to, though, we could have them hold up fingers. Not really the most scientific method, but...
... Take it one step further. If you agree on hand-signs for every participant here with those you trust, you'll have an easy path to revenge if one of you gets killed.
...I’d rather find the corrupted than find revenge. Not to say I wouldn’t be pissed if someone who didn’t have the darkness in them killed me, but - shouldn’t that always be the priority?
[No longer sounding impressed................ Now she's just rolling her eyes at her.]
I never said we should ignore the corrupted. You could be targeted by one of them next— As could I. There's no way to know who was killed by one of the corrupted until our vote's been cast, anyway. [So. Moot point?] But knowing who murdered without the darkness pushing them towards it is just as important. Unless, you feel safe knowing Kazuaki and Tokidoki's killers are still running wild?
[For a moment, it sounds as though there’s something she wants to say that she holds back from.]
Knowing who’s willing to murder on a whim might save people here, but knowing who’s possessed by the darkness could save the universe. I’m not saying either of them is more important than the other.
[Since they need good people who won’t kill each other at the drop of a hat to actually save said universe. Still.]
Because we can only use this item once, and even if I’m not saying finding uncorrupted killers isn’t important, I’d rather use it for the whole “saving the universe” thing.
Do you have a way to know who was targeted by the corrupted beforehand? Because if you don't, that means you only plan to use it after we've already fucked up by voting for someone who was clear.
Do you always jump to the stupidest conclusion? It's almost a gift.
[fuck u, emma.]
You have all of Friday to use it. If there's only one killer, and Lune or Sol confirm they're corrupted — then your job is done. But if there's more than one, then at least you have a name going into the trial. That makes it easier to link the evidence together and figure out who's corrupted or not.
Oh, yes, using it on Friday has always been an option and I, along with the other people who know about this, have just been too stupid to think about it even once. Congratulations. You cracked the code.
Oh, of course, how could I not be completely polite and proper while you stood there and called me stupid after I gave you information I definitely wasn’t obligated to? You know what, why don’t you just go ask Shess?

... I see. What kind of items did you all get? Though I'm assuming you didn't get to keep them.

Are there any limitations on how it can be used?

If you agree both are equally as important, then why are you arguing with me?

I asked if there were any limitations. You never said it was impossible to use on Friday.
