switching up the routine i see

[soba]

Ha ha.

You've gotten better with that.

[counterclocked]

my head stopped popping off my body which helped a whole lot

[soba]

What was the excuse before that?

[counterclocked]

you were in the way

[it doesn't occur to him that this joke might not translate well through text]

[soba]

[ he stares at him ]

[counterclocked]

[After a moment:]

kidding. that was a joke

[soba]

This really isn't working out for you.

[counterclocked]

i don't really have an alternative unless you want the computer noise back again

[soba]

... no.

Who were you with, anyway?

[counterclocked]

45

[soba]

... well, at least this kind of thing is basically impossible to fake.

[counterclocked]

she isn't faking it

akechi told me he heard her doing the same thing when she tried to talk

[soba]

Well, it's more like I don't know how it'll be possible to.

[counterclocked]

right

i just don't want something like last week to almost happen to her again

[soba]

... right.

It could happen to anyone, at least. People will jump at any small inconsistency in trials, even if it's nothing.

[counterclocked]

we need to get this right tomorrow

if agni is dead we're going to be fucked if we don't find the monster

[soba]

[ hm ]

If he wasn't announced then he shouldn't be, right?

[ granted maybe he's like

dying

so ]

[counterclocked]

[After a few moments:]

he probably fought a monster last night and now i can't find him anywhere

[soba]

... so if he's not dead then he might be seriously injured?

[counterclocked]

actually

okay this is going to take me a second to write out but it’s probably better if i give you the whole story

[hm]

[soba]

[ HE JUST

SITS DOWN ]

[counterclocked]

[true to his word, he takes a while to write this all out, but then he rips out the entire crayon filled page and hands it to toi.]

so after phoenix died i found this flute in his stuff. the flute could let whoever had it stay awake all through thursday night, and i trust agni a lot, so i gave it to him because he wanted to see if he could stop a monster from killing someone again

but when i woke up today i started looking around for him and he isn’t anywhere. so i bumped into akira, and akira had this medallion that can let him see an area that we normally wouldn’t be able to reach. so he asked it where agni is, and we both got this image in our head of a lot of darkness, but we could see some dirt too.

so we went to the garden and the graveyard to see whether we could find any signs of somebody having buried something, but i really think the medallion can only show us places we can’t reach. so maybe wherever he is, it’s like most of the evidence each week. we can’t see it or touch it until we go look there during the trial.

[soba]

[ well

that certainly is a lot ]

So... we'll most likely find out what happened to him tomorrow.

[ he wants to say more but he is biting his tongue ]

[counterclocked]

[He nods, but...]

but at that point he'll have in there for over an entire day if the darkness and the dirt does mean he got buried somewhere
