Can we talk for a moment...?

You only suppose? That's no good! A detective should be confident!

[truthstranger]

Then, definitely good cop. The bad cop would have cast our votes without talking to anyone.

[loveandwillpower]

That's more like lazy cop.

So, what's up? Who do you think I was with last night, officer?

[truthstranger]

Actually, I was hoping you would tell me that. I have some ideas, but I'd like you to be honest with me.

[loveandwillpower]

If you can trust what I've heard from other people, I know who two of the murderers are already.

What I don't know is who killed Illya.

[truthstranger]

That doesn't answer my question. I've heard things from other people as well. I'd like to hear about you.

[loveandwillpower]

Fine, fine.

Grim Eyes and I made plans in advance. Dying takes your sticks off, so. Whether I get away clean or not, her world won't get chewed up by a demon god and mine won't fold like a wet paper boat under an alien invasion.

[truthstranger]

...I see.

[loveandwillpower]

Neither of us wanted to kill someone who wouldn't fight back.

[truthstranger]

That makes sense.

...Are you... planning to vote along with the others?

[loveandwillpower]

Last time I didn't, they flipped it around so I voted for myself.

If I can't think of anyone else, I'll vote for the guy who offed Hiyori.

[truthstranger]

Ah, no, I meant... if you were planning to coordinate with the rest of the people up for consideration.

But... it's helpful to know what your plan is for right now, thank you.

[loveandwillpower]

You mean like gang up on the one who didn't do it?

I got an offer that was heading that way, but that's so far off the table it's rolled out the door covered in cheese.
