Koneko paused, processing and analyzing all of the voices she heard. Emotions swirled around the room like a torrent of murky, black water. Grief, shock, fear, horror, anger, distrust, and even... Love. She glanced down at Liam, and for a brief moment... she saw herself in him. Another place, another time, on her knees and begging for the one she loved not to leave her. She shook her head harshly, banishing the thoughts. 'It's his fault Ren is dead. If he had just woken up and done his job... Nobody would have died. That girl... Excrest, she would still be alive. Ren... Ren would--'She clutched her head, quickly doing a hard reset on her thoughts, back to before she did the emotional analysis. The faint feelings of grief and empathy fizzled away, melting like butter in the sun. With that out of the way, she was able to look at the scene in front of her with a rational mind once again. "...We will likely need to investigate, as this was surely a murder. Ren taught me how to do autopsies, so I'll do the honors, there. But... I'll need two people to help me watch the crime scene." ...Truthfully, it was more that she could see there were two other people in no shape to do any investigation, and so she would give them an excuse to simply stay here. "Liam Dayton, Sanura Simons, would you mind helping me watch over the scene?"you cant wake up - this is not a dream

Mayumi seemed to do her best to get Sanura awake again. Why she couldn't just let Sanura sleep, who knows, it would've at least avoided what's about to happen. Sanura woke up slowly, not clearly remembering what she saw before she passed out. Fortunately for her, she wasn't facing bodies so she was in the clear for now.
"...where are we again?" Getting 'rudely' waken up after having 'fallen asleep' wasn't what Sanura was used to though. "Why did you wake me-" But before she could finish her sentence she remembered. The body discovery announcement and a shiver went down her spine.
"D-don't tell me more people died..."

Dorothy woke up to two body discovery announcements. She rubbed her eyes to get the sleeping sand out of there and got up. She cared preciously little about the motive this time around, although she was worried that the storms could take out her cabin.
After she managed to meet everybody, she saw what happened: Kris and Rin were dead.
"Kris is dead? Poor Liam. But I'm not surprised after all those injuries he received back at the manor... And Rin? Who was Rin again?", she thought.
Then she noticed something else, namely that Sanura was alive and well.
"I guess my plan went off without a hitch, then. Mayumi and Sanura are both fine.", she thought again, this time showing the slightest hint of a grin on her face.
"I guess this is the part where we investigate again. Okay, just ask me and I'll probably come along with you. I'm not particularly picky."
"I wonder who did it this time...? We'll see in a short while. I wanna see what happens to the next blackened. Or me, if I'm voted."

[attr="class","box2"] Snap. Snap.
Standing from a little bit of a distance, Caelie took pictures of everything that went on. She focused on the reactions and expressions of all parties involved – the living, of course, as well as the dead that was… well, pretty much just that.
To be honest, a small sense of something akin to panic had started to arise within her when each day simply passed by. The weather was… an extremely powerful phenomenon, one that heeded to nobody’s orders save for maybe the one true God, but yet here Monokuma was doing just that. And not only that, but his influence extended to the animals and insects on this island too.
How was someone supposed to rationally explain this? Was it even possible to do so? But if it weren’t… what then? Were they about to shift genres, a murder-mystery turned sci-fi? Caelie toyed with that idea – admittedly, it would explain a lot – but there was a part of her unsatisfied with that answer. But if it wasn’t that, what then?
Well, there were bigger issues for now. Nana’s reaction to it all was out of the ordinary, and due to the fact that there were now two victims… bearing in mind how the vast majority of people were useless when solving the murder of just one, she really had to bring her A game to this trial this time. Or, well… there does exist one alternative.
‘I guess we’ll see,’ was Caelie’s conclusion to it all, now holding her phone horizontally to take a landscape video, panning from left to right to soak in everything that this moment had to offer.

as long as you remember me, i don't care if everyone else forgets. [attr="class","quicklinks"]♡STAYPOSITIVE♡ [attr="class","quicklinks"]220 words ♡ Lights, Camera, Action! Nox Tenebris on stage, front and center. ♡ | [attr="class","technoscroll"]❝ "N-Not again..." She croaked out as she covered her mouth, trembling oh-so-slightly. The bodies of Krzysztof and Rin immediately committing itself to her memory. Her eyes scanned the bodies and the area, but all she could really see was blood, and the only thing she could hear was a far away memory of screaming and pleading to be saved that made her go sheet pale. It figures that she'd be one of the ones to stumble across it as everyone else was still waking up and woke up to said announcement.
"W-Why? Why did s-someone...?" She stammered out, before taking trembling deep breaths. Like before, she had to at least attempt to keep up her positivity. For the sake of everyone else, and for the sake of her own dwindling sanity. She took a small step forwards, looking at everyone.
"...We're going to find out who did this. And... a-and why. And we're going to make sure they didn't die in vain, we'll keep going. We... we have to. If..." She swallowed. "If the future foundation really isn't coming... then we have to be the ones to fight for our futures, instead." She rubbed her eyes, subtly wiping away a few stray tears that managed to build up in the corners of her eyes, giving a genuinely sad but determined smile.
"We can't give up. Not yet." She whispered mostly to herself, clapsing her hand over her heart as she felt it race under her skin. |

"Kris, w-why aren't you getting up? W-Why are you just laying there? Why can't you just tell me everything is going to be alright? Kris, I just want you to get up! That's all I want!"
It's over, Liam. He's not coming back. I could have saved him, but I didn't. I failed again. Because of my lack of action, someone else was taken from me. He died and it's all my fault. He died just like before! It will never stop! Everyone I'm ever going to care about is going to be ripped away from me. There'll be nothing left of me by the time it's all over.
"Why did you leave me here!? Why couldn't I have been the one to die instead? You were the one that made me forget all of the pain in my heart, and now you're dead. You were the one I n-needed. You were the one I c-couldn't live without. You... You were someone I... loved."
No! Not love! I don't think about guys that way! I never have and I never will.
What's the point of lying to myself anymore? I know the way I feel. It's happened once before, and it happened again. You fell for him. It's a shame what happened next is exactly the same too.
"Th-Thanks for the s-support, guys, but it's over for him, and it might as well be for me too. He was the last thing I had to live for. He made me happy when I couldn't bring myself out of the despair. I'll help you guard the bodies, Koneko. Might as well spend every moment I can with what's l-left. I'll be sure to s-stay out of your way."
She probably knows how I feel. Her and Ren were happy together, and they were also viciously torn from each other by death. Anytime we manage to find even the tiniest bit of hope, despair comes back for us, and suddenly, lives are gone. Friends at each other's throats. Happiness gone from our miserable existences. Nothing left but the husks of a few kids that wanted to do their best for the people around them.
Complete and total despair will be all that remains.

Good Meals, Good Friends, Good Laughs, Good Murders, What more could anyone want?
Nero smiled as Yuichiro answered. If it was that simple an answer, then there was only one thing left to do.
"I'd love to help you then! Hopefully we can find your ring together." smiled Nero as he answered the Ultimate Singer. Even with these conditions, Nero supposed that they didn't have much time left on the island, perhaps not even any time after the trial. If it was important to Yuichiro, he'd spend every second he could looking for it, even if it was during investigation time.
"Forgive me Yuichiro, but I must do something before I can help you." said Nero as he walked over to the clearly depressed knight. If Koneko refused to be a Therapist, then he would help. After all, that's the reason he became a baker; to help others when they feel down. Even without his craft, there was still something he could do... hopefully.
"Liam! Don't give up on us just yet! I know how much it hurts... to lose a loved one, but if you give up then you'll lose everything. Don't you have loved ones on the outside? Ones that you can't bear to lose? Didn't you have friends here too? Like Dorothy, like me? Ones that you must protect? Besides, it's not your fault! This whole situation is Monokuma's fault, and you can't blame yourself. Believe in Hope!" affirmed Nero as he tried to bring back hope to the poor knight. Life had been cruel for the knight, but hopefully he could see it through to it's kindness as well. Nero the Warm Baker

To say that Apollo was not afraid of the oncoming storm would probably be the biggest lie of the century. In all honesty, Apollo was absolutely terrified. Monokuma wasn't kidding when he said that the island paradise was unstable. And lately, the weather had started to get bad and only went on to get worse and worse until, finally, Apollo had no other choice but to believe that this was truly the end of the world. However, just as Apollo was bracing himself for oblivion....everything was calm again.
Wait, what?
At first, Apollo couldn't help but feel relieved. It was finally over, and the island was safe for everyone to enjoy once more. However, he suddenly remembered Monokuma's words regarding the motive. And with that in mind, he immediately started to feel dread. The only reason that everyone else was safe again was that one of them had met their end again, just as Excrest and Ren did about a week ago. There was no other way. And just when Apollo had realized that, he heard the announcement. Not once, though. But twice.
"Oh, no." He said before immediately running outside and onto the beach, where everyone seemed to have already gathered. Apollo looked around for a brief moment before finally noticing the two dead bodies lying in the sand. Krzysztof and Rin. Two people had died at once. At that point, Apollo could no longer hold back his dread. So, he clutched his head and shook it. "No....no...." He said. "Not again...."

Two more of their number had met their ends. However, this time both had fallen victim to another, who would likely also meet their end. Nakamura had specialized in a trade with ties to her own, and Wilk had befriended Dayton, yet been targeted as a victim twice. Perhaps his weakened state had been cause for this? Speculation would accomplish nothing without evidence to support it. Two more talented individuals whose legacies and accomplishments she would remember, as it was all that would be left.
Mayumi and Sanura had survived being selected for the explosive collars, though the latter seemed unwell upon seeing the deceased. The former seemed to have argued briefly with Valentina but was otherwise unharmed. Yuichiro, Nana, and a third unknown party had discovered the scene of the crime. Careful consideration of the facts was necessary to arrive at a proper conclusion. One would need all the facts in order to begin considering them. An investigation would need to be conducted. She stared straight in front of her silently, the inner machinations of her mind an enigma.

► Yuichiro Yuuki 304 Notes | His knuckles went white, the sound of bones cracking into place inside his palm faintly registered in his mind. When he had told Nero that, he really only intended for Nero to be the one listening. Everyone else should have just shut him out of their minds. Nostrils flaring, he looked the aromatherapist dead in the eyes, uncharacteristic anger in his. "None of your fucking business, it's--" He stopped himself, lightly biting his tongue. Composure lost. Great. She didn't deserve that.
Taking a deep breath, he crossed his arms, closed his eyes, and turned his body to the right so he wasn't facing anyone. "Sorry, that was uncalled for. It's just... Personal. I know you mean well." Her words felt sincere. And there really wasn't much anyone else would want with that ring aside from selling or melting into a bullet in case they had a werewolf problem. Half opening his eyes, he stared at the ground, filtered by his golden bangs. "Pure silver. Has an inscription on the outside saying... Ugh. 'To The Days Stolen From Us.'" He paused and looked at the sweet smelling girl, his facial expressions grown soft. "Was a gift from.. A person close to me... Carol Laws, who was in my gr--" Shit. There was giving info and there was monologuing.
"Anyway. The fucking weather knocked me on my ass and it got swept up in the ocean. I think that was... Yesterday. I don't know how, but if it was a ploy like you say, then..." His remorse for whoever it was may go down. Doesn't matter if they were blackened, that was a conniving, disgusting trick. "We should get out there, guys." He looked at Nero and Gorou, who he figured would tag along. That guy would probably aid their search for important evidence after all. | |
