...

Yeah.

... For the record, I don't have any plans to send any of you to the gallows. It's easy enough to talk about justice and punishment without having the full picture, all while pretending we don't have blood on our hands already.

[Lightly, just putting it out there.]

But what are your thoughts? You haven't said much.

... Rupert and Byleth were both made to act at least twice, going by what they said. Whoever was Byleth's partner then...

[ he shakes his head a little ]

Ichinose-san, there's no one on that list I want dead. There's no one here I want dead. But we're trading lives no matter what, aren't we?

And if it's Taichi-kun?

[A tilt of her head... and then she sighs.]

Look, I'm not saying we should vote for someone completely unrelated on purpose. But if we have the freedom to choose, and it's not another case like Caiman-san... I wouldn't be inclined to vote for any one of you.

[ghoststrums]

It wasn't him.

[ defensive and immediate!!! and he shakes his head before crossing his arms ]

We don't have the freedom to choose, though, do we? This is the first time we've gotten two names. And--

Ichinose-san, if anyone's being made to kill against their will, it's better to put a stop to it for their sake, too.

I said if, Yamato-kun. [She's fully aware they're throwing darts most of the time. It's fine.] ... So you think it's better to put them out of their misery. I won't say the burden placed on their shoulders is awful. Though—

[She cuts herself off, humming.]

Do you think Rupert-kun got a replacement?

[ghoststrums]

...

I don't know. We know he worked with someone that first week, with Byleth the second, and now Byleth worked with someone else this week. There's too many variables to be sure.

... Hm. Well, I guess it's also possible there's one person from each dorm involved. But all we have right now is nothing but our own speculation.

[and for good reason, apparently? wowie!]

[ghoststrums]

... It depends on how they're chosen, doesn't it?

[txt]

Well, yes. And that's information we don't have...

[ghoststrums]

There's not exactly a lot of information we do have.
