Murder She Wrote

[if_she_hollers]

Like, me?  Murder?  Gosh, this is so totally exciting!  It's like some sort of mystery novel come to life.  I like, wonder who the real culprit is?  I can like, totally assure all of you that I have an airtight alibi.  I was totally asleep in bed all of last night and like, no one can prove otherwise.  Know like, what I think?  The real murderer's

No.

I'll do it, but some of the people on that list are just kids. They didn't even have anything to do with this.

[if_she_hollers]

Yeah? Kids have to grow up sometime. There's a heckuva lotta other kids in the town. This is the fastest way to get it over with.

We don't even know that they'll like, do anything to us. The point is to like, spread fear, right? What will they do if we all just line up?

[supersizedpower]

...I know there are, but. We can't make kids do that. It isn't right.

[if_she_hollers]

Weakness. That's like, what Americans have always suffered from. We see a crying orphan and our hearts melt. Ask me to kill Luke myself? I like, wouldn't be able to do it.

But sometimes. You gotta do what you gotta do. Kids are stronger than you think.

[hourai_branch]

Or is that what they want us to do also?

[if_she_hollers]

. . . How could it be what they want us to do? It'll be like, completely peaceful and not at all fear-inducing.

[hourai_branch]

Or use it as an excuse to cause more trouble.

[if_she_hollers]

I don't think I like, follow. What sort of trouble are you expecting?

[onebutmany]

I'm not killin' anyone. I'm no crim!

[if_she_hollers]

Like, tell me I'm wrong. Tell me I'm misunderstanding something. But those notes . . . They're saying that they replaced seven of us with drones. So like. Seven of us really are murderers.

Like, they must be lying, right?

[onebutmany]

Of course! You're just gonna go believin' those bastards without proof, sheila?!

[if_she_hollers]

Both ways, they'll get a perverted pleasure out of all this, won't they? If we believe them . . . we'll kill each other. If we don't . . . we'll watch slowly as people are picked off, one by one.

This is their revenge.

I've done nothing wrong.

I'm not... going to be held responsible for deaths that aren't my fault. And I'm certainly not dying for it.

[if_she_hollers]

I haven't either.

Sorry, Sideswipe. Forget what I said. The game's changed. If seven of us are really imposters . . . It's every man for himself.

[weaponsparked]

... What? What are you talking about?

[if_she_hollers]

Yuuka's message. ""Ten were taken yesterday, but seven were taken earlier and replaced." Russia's message. "There are only seven, but they must all be killed in time."

What other meaning can you get from it?

Seven people really are killers. Because seven people are already gone. Who can you trust?

[stateofworry]

I hadn't considered that... but with the information we've been given, I doubt that's the case...

[if_she_hollers]

. . . Yeah. I like, know. Forget what I said before -- This is an entirely different game.

You on that list?

[stateofworry]

It is. It's like nothing we've encountered here before. As much as I would like to believe otherwise, it truly seems that what the police are saying is genuine to some extent...

No. But people I know are...

[if_she_hollers]

Like, I know. I'm starting to totally buy into it, too. But like, you got any proof? 'Cause like, I'm pretty sure I'm still totally me.

You should like, try and help 'em. I bet some loony's gonna come after us all sooner or later.
