who cares about athena tbh LOOK WHO'S BACK
HOST
OH NO
implying host-chan was not a robot to begin with
8C
can spain tell me about the note now
host-chan is still here why would he tell you
what............
sebastian are you lying 
mr. host
mr. host what happened to you mr. host no mr host!!!!
yes peko
mar......lowe......?
how mysterious!!!
he had a picture of his bocchan first but then threw i away
/psyduck
and made notecards for everyone
marlowe all along!!!
WHO GOT CLUES...
i feel left out
SHE KNEW IT SEA BASS
the real Mastermind's motivation was to recover an incentive they weren't able to win in a prior game everyone silently looks at kaoru
kaoru looks like he's creeping on wriggle
leave wriggle alone
bad kaoru
everyone was in a prior game before but
kaoru did you finally snap
kaoru what did you do
ive been waiting for this moment
yes kaoru must not end the game without snapping
kaoru did it he had to
we've all been waiting for the other shoe to drop
he couldn't play with bunnies forever
same
id be happy if kaoru could just slip once at this point
host-chan seems perkier this isn't right 8C
come on kaoru sebastian already slipped you dont have to keep it up anymore
he's fake
AND MR. HOST SEEMS ENTIRELY TOO POLITE AND NICE????
he hasn't said figure it out for yourselves
once
the host is marlowe in disguise
wow back off of poor innocent kaoru!!
"were you sick"
"who knows"
SOMEONE TAKE OFF THE GAS MASK
and you all said she couldn't act
kaoru did you kill kouha in the first week
DID WE SCAPEGOAT MARLOWE
IT'S NOT SCAPEGOATING IF SHE KILLED DORIS 
VENGEANCE. DELAYED VENGEANCE.
lmao i mean i will say that
technically marlowe never really got her incentive in MM either
her acting career tanked
sorry marlowe
poor sweet marlowe
did she do lifetime like rob lowe
she's siz's character so i can't confirm anything for sure but in my head
she totally starred in the 'from justin to kelly' version of MM
u can't fool me cappy
i knew that figure out for yourselves was just added to throw maya off the scent!11
haha i'm actually tagging the host tonight not cappy
since i haven't done much modwork all july and i'm finally free
i didn't actually see your comment on plurk until after i replied so i laughed
YOU CAN'T FOOL ME SIZ
siz is tagging because it's marlowe in disguise!!!!!
it's siz impersonating cappy impersonating marlowe impersonating host-chan
i didnt know marlowe could be so polite and chipper
she learned from kazoo's notes
rpception
the Host should lift up his mask and be another Kaoru from two weeks in the future
FIGURE IT OUT FOR YOURSELF, MAYA-SAN 
kaoru is team spain isn't he
if they all played in previous rounds. don't they all count as having gone as suspects more than once
also i like how every other suspect looks pissed or disgruntled
spain's corpse is still better than klavier
and maya's icon is 
and kaoru's creeping on wriggle
oh...wow....i just realized that these room searches really will take fucking forever HA HA.....
I'll be up for a while if anyone wants to do Mei's, too
lmfao maya's room...
Gonna have to vanish until tomorrow night soon unfortunately
but I can write up just one or two big comments about everything that's in glinda's room if that works?
but I can write up just one or two big comments about everything that's in glinda's room if that works?
abandon all hope ye who enter
yeah everyone just do a write up
and then we can do more specific room searches if there's something specific to look for
i was about to say, can we just save time and do a write up for each character...
otherwise just cover all the basic areas that always get searched
sure!
sebastian's will be a bit later because honestly i'm too tired to research all his crazy new traps tonight 
LMFAO
LMFAO
just in case anyone is wondering where his is...
no everyone should strip
glinda obviously
marlowehostchan is so rude
she just wants to hold your haaanddd
glinda is stripping a corpse already someone else needs to organize this
true stripping aura!!!
hey guys can we try to do athena's room search tonight?
i'm traveling tomorrow so it might be tricky
Who is doing Athena......'s room
i'll be up for a bit so i can
Pretty much vanishing as well now Maya take the lead
if no one else wants to, i can send klavier with maya!
klavier do u need a hug
feel better!!
he needs ten million hugs
come to superior big bro
ahhh ok lmao i basically fell asleep
ᴍᴏʙ.
was
i supposed to tag there?
yeah that's the room search thread for athena! though i'm going to bed now too lmao
yeah i know the thread was there i just didn't realize i was supposed to tag there
it seemed like klavier's tag
but oh well i'll tag something real quick before bed
to be continued!11
spends an important amount of time figuring out how to hide an atgeir
okay guys let's get moving with the trial!
i think things will be better once athena's room search is done but we still need to get some stuff done today
oh if anyone needs sebastian ping me! I'll be busy studying today 
but I'll be around tomorrow afternoon since my exams are in the morning lmao
but I'll be around tomorrow afternoon since my exams are in the morning lmao
I'm around but I've been waiting for Athena's room search to wrap up since we don't really have a lot to go on until that's done
I'm afraid I'm also going to be scarce; I have to submit a grant tomorrow
i'm around all day today......... can people from the graveyard just haunt the trial and help out
yes week nine is ghost week
ghost helpers
everyone possess a living person an force them to do your will
okay
chizuru will possess the host and make him take off his mask....
okay i think maya and klavier can probably report back now/post their findings
so we can get moving
i can write up the findings in the evidence thread if Sippycup wants to do a top level about what they found!
no
Maya's going to insist that everyone strip jsyk
since Wighty is busy
aslso was the broken glass from a bottle or a drinking glass
do we know
drinking glass
thank
did Klavier take all the notes?
yeah but if she wants to hand them out he would have given them to her!
okok i'll edit my top level
and then force klavier to read his
so everyone knows he's the mastermind
yes force people to show off their notes
hurt klavier
make him cry in public
i'm tempted
this was athena's plan as the true mastermind
one of the notes has a pretty good bombshell in it
not saying which one
good
everyone read your notes, yes 
klavier will make someone else read his to make sure there's nothing incriminating in it before he actually reads it himself
this is an extremely legit coping method!
it's my final wish that klavier isn't given the dignity of crying in private
no maya's going to make klavier read his
i want her to be responsible for making him cry in MM too
athena your note isn't even that good he's not going to cry over it SORRY
NO IT'S REALLY TOUCHING
it's so touching
okay i guess i'll have to kill maya again to make klavier cry
i'm sorry guys athena is not that good at writing notes
all her notes are like hahahha i'm dead i guess? awkward! well see you later
LMAO ATHENA
should have confessed your love
at least then he would have felt like a creep
I can still edit it so it says 'thanks for being such a good boyfriend'
You should feel bad
klavier is just like haha okay bye guys time to throw myself off the tower
jeez klavier wait until after the trial
no there is a fate worse than death waiting for Klavier
sharing his feelings
no the worst fate is remembering he's 24 and creepy
anyone still awake who wants to go with nanami?
I just got home, I can go!
what time zone are you actually in, Lucy, you're up so late...
well, you got some sleep and it's convenient for me...
I am conscious again have we solved everything yet
Yeah, we figured out how Feferi did it from the grave
That was really very clever
yeah it took a lot of planning
Just what we'd expect from Murder Mel
oh I just realized that week two was SUPER cursed this time
everyone associated with it is dead
kuzuryuu is happy to help from beyond the grave. YOU USE HIS FIREPLACE.
he is so frustrated that he can't actually help oh my god
Kuzuryuu's ghost hovering over their shoulders critiquing their investigation
any luck making out kaoru's signed confession spelled out in the shards of broken glass???
maybe there's more we can find if we search :|a
search everywhere 
god he would do exactly that if he were capable
my accounts ran out and since I think we only have like a week left I don't want to renew but miraculously I actually got left with a useable set for Iceland
there is a god
mm2 can never end
it must go on forever >=(
bad end: everyone's stuck in a murder loop forever. nobody gets to leave the castle.
every time they think they beat it, it just keeps on going. s50 forever
okay i'm awake to do the room search when you guys are around
anyone around?
i am but that's unhelpful... unless there's anything that can be done from the graveyard end? :c
I'm around now! But I wasn't around yesterday so I need to catch up--where is someone needed?
oh, I am, I just got distracted
checking the other rooms in the castle with fireplaces worthwhile?
or can it be handwaved
it can be handwaved
oh also that note was hella cute athena 
okay, so far we know athena was probably poisoned possibly in her room but possibly it was just weird timing with slow-acting poison and also the note might have been burned in her fireplace
i hope sebastian cried
he gained a morality point
that's close
he's up to 4/100 now
yeah. and i think nanami and maribelle were going to check the rate the fireplaces burned while another group were going to recheck athena's fireplace
Kaoru was doing that, right?
rechecking Athena's fireplace, I mean
idk if anyone started a thread for it?
oh, I was just going by what nanami said in the fireplace thread
I could start a thread rechecking athena's fireplace unless someone else wants to?
okay! well i have to go walk my dog but i'll be back soon
also the trial runs through saturday as usual, right? that's when the voting says it's due
yeah
so, anyone around have ideas on where we should check next/what evidence we should look at next if the second fireplace check doesn't turn up anything?
while I still think this is going to be a situation where the producers did something I'm not sure how to prove it. There are only two alibis and stuff and we can't just randomly search the castle
well search the fireplace
i'll mod tag it when i get back
I will once I have a partner! Or I guess if no one is around I could do it on my own. swagu are you still around?
yes! I had to step out for a second but i'll tag that now haha
aww yeah
that fireplace is going to be so well-searched, iceland and sea bass are both thorough
so we found broken brick and cement
I don't think someone can climb down the chimney... the setting page says they're really small
Maya's room is above
or, well,
The chimney is too small to crawl through,
you might be able to throw something down?
also are the images for everything broken for anyone else?
images are working for me
huh weird... they're all broken for me 
maya didn't submit a room search but after the next mod reply I can have Mr. Puffin fly up and check the roof
be careful mr. puffin...
I hope puffin finds useful evidence just because of how much apollo hates the puffin BUT NO PUFFIN IS USEFUL
nope
rude
look okay how would there be crumbly brick inside a fireplace too narrow to climb throuh
is it like how the skeleton key was hidden in a loose brick on the outside of the castle... is there something else in there...
my first thought was "the fireplace is old" tbh
BUT ASSUMING NOT THAT my thought was someone dropped something down or shot something up
sizlaria: what wall is the fireplace against? would it be up against wriggle's or aoi's room?
or is it facing outside
er, is the back facing outside
ummm i don't know
but it wouldn't matter
yeah not knowing also works
britt's point is stupid and you should disregard it entirely
I was thinking maybe something happened on the other side of the fireplace but
doesn't disregard britt's point
stick your hands into places that are too dark to see do it do it do it
well I think they can see at least
but would you be able to see into a hole if there is one there!! nope
WE ARE NOT GOING THE FULL SILENT HILL
surely there isn't anything that would bite your fingers off!!
or contact poison you!!
gloves are on!
at least iceland heals from minor injury
she should, he would have taken one for the team there
I would feel bad for not considering something had been hidden up there but Feferi just sort of decided to take the brick and make it look useful
since she just accidentally knocked that loose
yes
smearing chloroform also works
we were all very successful in terrible ways
I tried to convince katar to have kazoo use the chloroform trick but no
SOMEDAY I WILL TELL YOU GUYS THAT
I WANTED TO
I REALLY DID
ahahaha yes
our one thing...
ty bananami
bless, nanami.
incidentally I realized the other day how easy it is to koi pun
koizuryuu
chiakoi
pekoi pekoiyama
yeah, see. we couldn't use the chloroform trick as much as we wanted every dk murder to involve it
but on the other hand we could have put chloroform on sebastian's door
yes
...I only just realised that the koi pun was supposed to be after the fish.
jfalsdjf lmao
hehe
I thought it was koi as in love!
I CAN ONLY FISH PUN
aw but now it's a cute double pun...
pekoiyama 
yeah, that's why his cuddlefish was koi-patterned
because he is koizuryuu
doki dokiyama
I thought it was meant to be poking fun at the fact everyone was teasing about Nanami/Kuzuryuu at that point.
what no no dokis peko doesn't have those nope don't look at her
haha
NAH FEFERI SHIPPED THEM PALE
especially because of the dk association
it is
(loose brick found)
pale is canon okay
feferi has decided to ship peko<3kazoo
WHAT'S BEHIND IT WHAT'S BEHIND IT
Is it the mastermind?
probably
felicia is back there
should we all look accusingly at klavier and maya
okay i have to go to lunch and run some errands so
i'm going to end day here
and y'all can all stew
Iceland is ACTIVELY PULLING IT!!!
dies
unless it just blows them up or something
that would be unfortunate
boom!!
iceland has healing powers and sea bass doesn't, kill sea bass instead
wait no that's a terrible idea
kill sea bass so chizuru can otome at him from beyond the grave!!
iceland also has puffin with him
that's double the protection
folded letter and a skeleton key
ICELAND WILL KEEP THEM UNTIL TOMORROW I GUESS
probably
oh that's weird 
iceland's room is very secure and no one ever finds anything he hid
(he hid his atgeir)
belatedly gomen guys I'll do the room search when I get home
day 2 is up
there's a new plurk!
oh whoops
