sixth victim

[airlockedmods]

[At 7 AM on Friday, the mini-maps that allow the teleporter to be used all turn back on. Like any other time that the status quo has been abruptly restored at the end of the week, there's something ominous about it all the same. Especially on the fourth floor.]

That's what I was thinking, too. Or...or maybe he wanted this person to kill him. I-I don't know.

[Abruptly, she holds the blade out to Togami, pointing downwards and away from him. Because that is how you handle blades.]

I want to...to see Mister Jamie. But I'm not taking this down there while I go looking for him. Please...I'd appreciate it if you brought it to the trial.

[God, she can't wear this cardigan either, can she? The sleeves are now caked with blood. It's...fine, she'll just make a new one. It's her skirt that has pockets anyhow.]

[imnotfat]

Fine. Give it to me.

[Togami, now a bit more awake, thankfully, takes the blade]

Look for anything that could connect another floor to this one. If nothing like that is found...

[Then you're getting indicted. No pressure!]

[Once he does, Jane takes her cardigan off, turning back to Bolton. She gives him one last look before gently, reverently placing the black, lumpy mess over his face and chest.]

I know. We were the only ones up here. We're tied for the top suspect. [Don't you dare think the others will leave you out of this, Togami. Jane turns back to him, a hand going to the plastic survival knife that's been in her pocket this whole time. Want to check that for blood? It's fucking plastic, and you'll find that it's clean.] But I don't believe either of us did this. And...it's like you told me, isn't it? We need to work together, or we'll all die.

I don't think you're the culprit either.

[...anymore. He won't admit you were his main suspect once he found Bolton, honestly]

Now go. If you have time, try to get some rest. The trial won't wait for tomorrow.

[As for Togami, well, he's going to return to his room to sleep until the trial]

[cyan_maid]

[...A gentle smile.]

You too, Togami. I - I want to be able to pie you in the face someday, alright? Don't you dare leave on me before I can do that.
