...Yeah, I'm mad, but not at anyone I can actually put a face to. Trust me, if I find out who actually did it, or who those damn angels behind everything are, I'll sock 'em in the jaw as long as it's physically possible. But if this is the last day I've got, I don't want to spend it being completely miserable because of them.
[ Akira sighs accepting that answer but has no idea how to respond. He couldn't imagine not flying off the handle, but that's probably not a surprise. ]
I think people got confused with Yuri's item. I didn't get any good reads this time either.
I'll know for next time not to waste a read on blood that's been diluted. I would've preferred to use my reads on Sheba, but it was getting late before you found her.
The perfume crap was weird and so was the Russian, so I voted for Spike and Power. I don't think you would have went after Yelena or Sheba either.

[ A half-hearted shrug. She's a lot to him so he gets it though. ]
I know you're not gonna be able to send real clues back, but if you do find out who it was, send me whatever you can. I'm still working on Ulrika's killer.
I was connected to her that one week, so yeah, I know it.
[ Made this a lot more awkward than it would have been otherwise...
Another nod. ]
Yeah, I'll try to. I still kinda think the rabbit thing is worth following up on, so maybe keep an eye on anyone with some kind of rabbit daemon... Aside from that, you think you have any good leads? Maybe we can come up with some kind of obscure codenames or something for a few we think are likely to come up.
Monika, but Ulrika couldn't confirm anything at the ball either. For her, maybe something pink? Or one of her daemon forms. For today's victims...I'm not realy sure. I thought the perfume thing with Power was weird, but I barely know her. I threw in a vote for Spike too, but that was more just because if he's not willing to defend himself then I'd rather someone like him go down for it if we're gonna fuck up.
I've kinda wanted it not to be her since she's always been nice, but thought there was a pretty good chance. I mean, that's exactly what Ulrika's note said, that she was someone everyone liked.
[ ... ]
She came by earlier and said she was sorry about what happened, and I told her she didn't need to apologize unless she was the real killer. Didn't really react as far as I could tell, though if she killed Ulrika she probably wasn't involved this time, so maybe it didn't bother her.
...So, okay. Pink and... strawberries, maybe, to refer to her? No one should bat an eye at me talking about ingredients, anyway.
...Speaking of injury checks, though... maybe see if you can find out what was up with the bruise around Susato's eye that she had covered up. I got an explanation for the other bruises she had, but not that one. [ She pauses, frowning. ] She's one of the people I've trusted the most, and after what a rough time she had last week I didn't want to push it too hard, but.
I dunno. I just felt kinda weird about it. [ ... ] Maybe because of the rabbit thing.
Yeah. A rabbit with a rabbit daemon, so either way you look at that...
[ She shrugs. ]
Hopefully it's nothing. I do feel like Sholmes was looking at her kinda weird a few times too, but that could've just been because he was worried about her after everything, especially with the other one from their world gone now.
Mm. Maybe just, if there's another moment like that, try catching his eye, I guess?
She has been pushing pretty hard for the idea that the killers are getting coerced into it by the angels, so... I'd like to at least believe that much if it turns out I wasn't imagining things.
[ He can do that and it'll probably be awkward but! He will try. ]
That bit is true though, or at least that's what Bertolt and Suigetsu told me. I can't say I trust Suigetsu but I don't think he had a reason to lie about that, though in his case he didn't really need to be pushed into it.

...and I didn't vote for you.

[ fuck these shitty trial items with their fine print that no one reads ]
Anyway, that's not your fault. They might've tried to make it harder on purpose after seeing what you did last week.

Thanks, though. I appreciate it.

[ Ugh, now she's just thinking about the sight of Sheba in that plant again. But she nods at that last part. ]
Sheba, especially... She was a good kid, and we had a lot of little things in common. It was always nice talking with her.
[ Sigh. ]
That weird message... Guess Reze hates me now, but that was the only idea I could think of that seemed like it might be able to explain it.

She's been nice with me, but I know she'd do anything to not go home so I don't think the angel would have to try hard.
Strawberries work. If you mention any other fruit, I'll take it as it's someone else.
