craven castle: private conversation, week 7, trial day 1
WHO: Nanami & Kuzuryuu.
WHEN: Week 7, during day 1 of the trial.
WHAT: KUZURYUU IS BEING AN ANGSTY UNHELPFUL IDIOT so Nanami is trying to figure out what the hell he's doing with his life.
[ And after dragging Kuzuryuu away to Dragon Wing and the privacy of a locked room: ]
...All right, why are you so focused on Austria? That's why...you're being weird, right?

[He doesn't want to help catch her, basically.]
Because if she did do it then it's...it's not because of the fuckin' nightmares...
no subject
...Why do you think she would have killed the man she was in love with?
[ is this what morbid curiosity feels like
it is, isn't it ]
And if not for the incentive...then what reason would she have had to kill? Whoever killed definitely killed for the incentive, this time. We know that, since we didn't go.
no subject
[Nanami, you...you really should not give into this morbid curiosity. You really don't want a peek into how Kuzuryuu's mind works in this case, it's terrible.]
But she...she wants to help us. You saw how she reacted to Michaelis's report. On Monday she invited me over to her room for a bit, we got to talking about shit and she ended up askin' me if I failed trivia on purpose. I told her that was stupid, of course I wouldn'tve done something like that and she told me that...she wished she could have assisted me. Somehow, with what I struggle with. And I don't...I don't think she was talkin' about that test when she was referring to "what I struggle with."
no subject
[ She's...she's staring at him. ]
...If Austria-san genuinely wanted to help us - and I believe she does - she would help everyone to find a way to beat the game, not play into it only to die that week.
I think it was Iceland.
no subject
[SHOULDA SCAPEGOATED HIM WHEN WE HAD THE CHANCE.]
And...she had the best opportunity to poison both Spain and herself. I want to think it's Iceland, I really do, but...
no subject
And I think...it was about the nightmares. His nightmare, I don't think he lied about it. His country, his family...what would he do to protect those things?
...And in this case...I think Iceland has equal if not better opportunities. Poisoning herself...I just don't think it feels like something Austria-san would have done. She wants to help us, and she wants us all to get out: the best way to do that is to refuse to play the game, and to find a new route.
no subject
The person who was with him during his unaccounted time had to've done it, right? Because they're not coming forward to admit to being with him at that time...
no subject
Only one of us can be right about it, but even if it's not me...rather, if it is me, then you're not helping at all. We have to prove Austria-san is innocent. Okay? And if she isn't innocent...if she isn't innocent...
[ can they hang someone else instead? scapegoat someone for her? nanami can't even suggest this. ]
...if she isn't innocent, I don't think she would try to get away with it like this. Think about what her nightmares were. If she got away with this, she...would be walking ever closer to those things coming true. It might "stop" those nightmares from coming true, but...not really. Not when I think Spain-san dying must have been part of those nightmares as well.
Will you at least try to help? For me?
no subject
[He...hates...it........]
Every time I've followed my instincts so far, I've been right. And in this case, I don't want to be right. [There's a glimmer in his eye of something...strange. Maybe glimmer isn't the right word. What would you call an anti-glimmer? Something dark and empty...] But what am I supposed to do instead of following 'em?! I don't want to find out the truth is that she did something like poison herself twice, just to be sure Spain took the poison in a way that would be impossible to trace!
[...Kuzuryuu, just what exactly is your fucking theory here and holy hell, how long have you been stewing in this?]
no subject
...Explain to me your theory. Step by step. Okay? Let's go through this together.
no subject
[And, y'know, Spain dying with Austria being a suspect doesn't exactly help. Really, that's was the breaking point here.]
[He sits down on the bed, taking a deep breath to try and collect himself a little bit.]
I think...she might've poisoned herself with the slow acting poison. Drank it herself and then...kissed Spain while it was still fresh in her mouth. Then at dinner, she took the fast acting poison to entice a scare and get him to use the antidote. It's not like...the antidote would have been selective and cured only one poison over the other, right? It's universal...it probably would have gotten rid of both. And we'd never be able to trace that, no matter how many poison testing kits we have.
[What the actual fuck, Kuzuryuu, it is a good thing you didn't share this theory with everybody. What the fuck is wrong with you.]
1/2
no subject
Nanami listens, and while she can admit this...could have happened, she's...still of the opinion it didn't happen, although good lord Kuzuryuu, why was this even a thing that came to mind? ]
...Kuzuryuu-kun. [ Looking up at him from the position of his shoulder, with a small frown. ] I...don't think that's what happened. If that were the case, Austria...would be trying to get away with Spain's murder. You said you thought she was trying to help us. How...would that help us? Even if she went to stop us, doing it like that, it wouldn't. And more than that...
...you...never addressed what I said about Iceland, you know.
no subject
Maybe she...was hoping he didn't have the antidote. Maybe she didn't intend to...live to the trial. [Murder-suicide...] We'd technically have a murder and we might not even have to go through a trial since we'd have a dead person on the suspect list, so...
[...okay. hold up. Now that he's actually said this outloud, he seems to realize that at least part of it is kinda...uh...]
But I guess...you're right. That doesn't really...help anybody, does it? [Okay, but kiss of death is still a perfectly acceptable murder plan, you have to admit. THERE WOULD BE NO EVIDENCE. THE PERFECT CRIME!! Assuming the populars actually...uh...found the antidote.] As for Iceland...you have a point. That...that's basically what we did when Peixes went. And that was...part of why I was so suspicious of Peko...
tmw you say your murder theory aloud and realize you're an idiot: kuzuryuu fuyujiko's life story
Nanami squeezes his hand. ]
...No, it doesn't help anyone. And like I said, that's...not something Iceland-san would usually endorse, is it? It's not much to go on, and it's just a feeling, but...I think Austria-san has not done anything suspicious during this trial, and I do think that her murdering someone would not help anyone.
And she was...the one who spoke up loudest about doing something to help everyone. I know they didn't think of anything, but...
[ MURDERING SPAIN HELPS LITERALLY NO ONE. ]
Either of us could be right, but...Kuzuryuu-kun, let's think about it together and try? A suggestion to check every empty room...that's really something we'd only do if we were trying to get people to waste time. ...Well, we'd let them suggest it and then encourage it, but...
look, we all have our off days: an epilogue, also by fuyuhiko kuzuryuu
[He frowns a little.]
...how do you think he did it? You've got a theory, right?
although if he's right she will eat her words she still thinks it's not austria!!
For Spain-san, I think that Iceland-san poisoned him, but I'm not sure how. As to when, there had to be a time...we should chart out the alibis, and figure out where the weak point is. I think Spain-san would actually be...incredibly easy to poison.
[ SHE'S SORRY, SPAIN, BUT YOU WERE KIND OF TRUSTING. ]
Especially for those he was close to. But, while everyone knows that was Austria-san...I think people are forgetting it was also Iceland-san, a little.
HE BETTER NOT BE RIGHT...
[Kuzuryuu falls silent again, thinking. He seems to realize something after a moment though.]
...we...never did find where he hid his damn fingerprinting kit, did we?
[Kuzuryuu what...does that have to do with anything?]
i'll cry if he is tbh...I CHOOSE TO BELIEVE IT'S ICELAND
[ It's obviously somewhere. ]
Why do you ask?
*kuzuryuu* will cry if he's right.
[WHERE IS THAT DAMN KIT.]
What was it he said? Unless they're somewhere that would point to our killer, it probably doesn't matter if we find them? Something like that, anyway, my point is...what if the fact that we can't find them points to our killer?
nanami will hug him. LET'S JUST BE RIGHT ABOUT ICELAND INSTEAD.
[ supposedly maya knows! ]
he will cry in private though, WHERE NOBODY CAN SEE HIS TEARS.
[Especially since supposedly Maya knows.]
kuzuryuu..........
[ Nanami hasn't, but she doesn't...have to........... ]
he's not crying, you're crying!!!!
[He glances up at the clock.]
We should probably head back out there. Before people start getting suspicious or we break the rules...
no subject
[ But she thinks he looks a little better than he did at the start, so now is a good time to go back. Nanami will stand up, nodding. ]
Let's go, then.
no subject
Yeah, that'd be real damn unfortunate wouldn't it?
[And off they go!]
