[ well he doesn't think kanda is lame but between this and lavi outing the soba thing he does think he might be a little stupid. but that is sometimes what fighters are so he guesses he will forgive kanda this flaw ]

... Karma. She was a match for his shit. [ hm. maybe he should explain trial to kanda. so kanda learns things. ] Nona said she didn't know what happened with either of those guys, as well, which means Erin was part of the chimera thing.

[He is very stupid it's true. Word of god (Hoshino) said so. But he also just can't bring himself to be too invested in the details of strangers' deaths when he's so used to losing large numbers of people all the time. His job, as he saw it, was simply waiting for someone to reveal their monstrous side, and being ready to step in if needed--only now that they've missed one will he try and think back over the rest.]

...The other axe guy, maybe. [After a little thought. He means Alfyn.] We decided the handprint was the dead guy's, but he probably didn't hack his own chest open.

[...]

Unless the dog could transform. [Honestly there are so many wild powers in DGM that he doesn't even bat an eye at this idea]

[ :/ well you didn't even do that job kanda wow... clearly his ic fault and not anything else ]

Could be. Though the angle of the handprint looked more like it was done when the guy tried to defend himself than someone actually holding the thing to attack. [ buuuut; ] The people who fit the ponchos, though. Erin was on the list for the smaller side. Could be the list for the larger side had our actual culprit in it too.

[Yeah it was so Cloud specifically should THROW HIM ON THE PYRE!!!!

Thinking back over the poncho list... he is fortunately smart enough to assume the killers probably wore them for bloodstain purposes so he isn't like "how are these related at all"]

Maybe the hot woman, then. [Karlach. This is my favorite epithet] Or the spirit guy. [Iwatooshi] They're a hell of a lot bigger than the rest of us. Those coats aren't fitted, but they still had to get their heads in there.

[And it might've been an uncomfortably snug fit if the poncho was meant for Gojou and under suspects, he thinks, though he's not like. Devoted to this reasoning. All his clothes are tailored by his job he doesn't know shit.]

[ ... raising... an eyebrow... at hot woman..... ]

Yeah. One of 'em. I don't know that we've got enough information to narrow it down more than that, but it's something to keep in mind.

[ that we should look specifically at these people and go SUSPICIOUS loudly until we die ]

[Well you see Cloud sometimes you spar with someone and they are physically very warm because they're a fire demon or whatever so--

He looks dissatisfied, at that.]

I don't want to wait for them to kill someone else. [However, murdering people without solid proof kind of defeats the purpose of "minimizing unnecessary casualties" so as funny as it would be to just take people out on a random day Just In Case, he doesn't really intend to do that... he tsks in irritation.] If they were Akuma, their blood would show it, but I don't know how to check these.

[ kanda is straight for karlach nods ]

Me neither. [ he understands kanda's frustration!! he does!! he Feels it ] Best we can do for now is keep watch and see if any of them act off. We don't have any other way to check right now.

[ i hope we kill them for body switching ]

[He'd be right for it if he was]

Did those three say anything about how long it would take for them to try and kill again?

[Is there like. A monster murder cooldown. He has never dealt with this before]

[ he would... he would ]

No clue. Both have only happened on Thursdays so far, but that's with... fresh monsters.

[ for lack of a bETTER WORD ]

[ICHIBAN YOUR KILLER IS GOING TO GO BAD IN THE FRIDGE!!! ICHIBAN YOUR KILLER'S BEST-BUY DATE PLEASE]

Mm. [Ugh.] Which one do you suspect more?

[He will help watch them both but he wants to know so they can balance a little]

[ IS THE KILLER YOGURT???? ]

If it's between those two... I don't know. Karlach's got that heart thing herself, but Iwatooshi's just as good with weapons. I didn't pay attention to either of them that much during trial, either.

[Maybe they are...

But, mm. He frowns, thinking.]

...She pressed that guy's friend pretty hard. [Poor Tomi] But that's not enough.

[He also didn't help with strip check so he doesn't know Iwa had injuries... rip.]

[ me not rereading strip check like oh ray is evil yogurt... ]

We don't have enough to pin it on any of 'em for sure, or exonerate either. [ because they icly cannot reread threads... ]

[RAY... RAY ARE YOU EVIL YOGURT!!!

But Cloud's right, which is frustrating. They really do just have to wait around, especially since Kanda definitely isn't smart enough to have a mind palace for trial details.]

...There's no rule that we can't take them out if we find them. [He says, eventually.] They've got someone for their ritual this time. So if we get proof--we don't need to wait.

[I so desperately hope someone goes nuts on a mingle in the middle of the week. Please. PLEASEEEEE]

No, we don't. So long as it's in public, we should be fine taking them out if needed. Just need to make sure no one tries to do it alone--we've seen it. Monsters get weird if cornered.

That should be fine. This place isn't that big. [He doesn't know about PCs]

Big enough when it wants to be.

[ he doesn't know about pcs but look we can't always all be in the one spot for the cyoa return to happen near us ]
