[ Claude also has a bad taste in his mouth after everything. There's still at least one murderer out there. ]
I wish. I felt pretty confident in my vote last week, so I was really hoping sharing votes would prove it. I guess we'll need to see how many vouchers we get tomorrow.
And Rupes was from the other set of evidence, so we still don't know who he was working with, let alone why.
[ he sighs. ]
It might be a good idea to ask the dorm heads if they can confirm how many vouchers everything is worth, too, if they can answer it. And find out whatever "good behavior" might mean. But at the very least, most of us got the vote right this time, so it should be easier to trace that one.
No, I couldn't think of anything good to offer. I'm - mostly just good with my hands, but I don't really have the materials to build anything worthwhile here.
Well, weapons, I guess. My ship, but I had some help with that. Automatons are more up my alley, and things like our phones, the library computers, and UTVs. Those are all mechanic things.
So, technology. [ hmmm ] That could be quite useful. If this place really is as void of magic and relies more on advanced science, then maybe those skills could pay off.
I think this place might have a little of both. The problem is, the tech here is pretty limited. The computers in the library don't actually connect to much, and I don't have the tools to hack into the phones. The UTVs are easy enough to hotwire or take apart, but I haven't figured out how that would help us yet.
[ He's desperately doing his best to follow along. ]
I... see. I'd still keep it in mind, though I feel like all we can ever say is that there's still too much we don't know. But we have no answers on when we'll actually know enough to do something.
Either that, or a way to try and help pinpoint a murderer. The hard part is figuring out exactly how to do that, if people really are getting teleported out of the dorms. And with all of us doing investigations on Friday mornings, basic things like door traps or trip wires won't do much good.
We did talk about something like that in the first week - like a CCTV. But I can't build it without the right equipment, and that would probably take more vouchers that I don't have.
[ It's cold outside, and Claude is not about that life, so he is holed up in the library, suffering through a warm cup of hot chocolate.
He doesn't expect it when he suddenly spots Leo, to step back into the classrooms of Garreg Mach (2:44 to 4:05), a memory so old that he'd almost forgotten the conversation entirely.
(It's nostalgic though, wistful and a little longing.)
And by the time it fades, he's spilled his hot chocolate all over his hands— ] Ow, hot!
