Otome helped you with Lan Wangji. Byleth helped you with Bradley. [she sounds frustrated by that - none of them knew each other as well as they thought they did, huh?] Who else?
...Our group was allowed to invite a new member each week. After Kaoruko was expelled, she chose Otome and I - probably because her case was special, so she got to choose two of us. Otome and I picked Byleth, and Luxanna got invited the night before I was expelled.
...I don't know. But if there was a risk of that, we would be told. We got the names at the start of the week, and we had until the end of the week to act.
[...]
If I had ever been on that list, I would have asked them to choose me.
...Yeah. It was, like - the people who were most at risk of being assimilated. There were three each week, and if we didn't choose one and sever their ties with the school, all three of them would be lost forever.
That's a good question! I have no idea what happened to Sieghart or why.
[which he sounds - a little annoyed by. with a frown:]
The other two are the people who wake up outside, or - in the dorms, for last week? I'm not sure about why they were inside this time, honestly. But, the first week it was Dimitri and Sieghart, the second week it was Catra and Mabel, and the start of this week, it was Sakyou and Kon who weren't chosen.
...We'd been told that if we told anyone, or hinted anything, or even if someone else found out and told others - the world itself might strike back somehow, and it could risk everyone. I wanted to tell everyone, or to find another way, but...
[he sighs.]
We could only tell the people we were about to kill, because the world wouldn't have time to strike back, given how soon afterwards they would be... you know.
...so there's more going on here, and either Kaine or whoever made her believe Sieghart needed to die is going to have to die for us to find out about it.
Well - a while ago, Viola had a piece of information about this place that she sold to Crow for a few vouchers. If everyone who's still alive got that kind of offer, maybe there's a chance we will, too? Have you been able to talk to any of the dorm heads while we've been here?
Maybe, but it doesn't really seem like there's any ways for us to earn vouchers... I did plenty when I was alive that should've earned me some, but I didn't get any when I woke up here.
[she shrugs.]
...we tried contacting the living from our phones and it just bounced back. I dunno if Lan Wangji tried to message a dorm head though...
Wait, so - extra credit or tasks aren't a thing here? I mean, I guess we wouldn't need healing items or anything here... Nobody has a reason to hurt each other anymore.
[he frowns at the part about the dorm heads, though.]
I haven't tried to do my extra credit, but we aren't doing any Dorm Wars tasks here.
[some of them were just impossible this week, anyway! you can't go anywhere with someone when you're stuck in a single room...]
Last week, I got a coupon for participating in the debate club on Friday, but even though we did an assignment this past Wednesday - the bear had us do art - we haven't seen anything yet. It just said it would probably be of great help if we did.
So... If he said there's something we could do that would be of great help, it's just a matter of figuring out all the other ways that we can help from where we are. Maybe someone could try to do extra credit and see if it gets us anything?
Maybe. It might be easier said than done in some cases.
[for example - there are so few of them! she can hardly ask rupert for help with her extra credit, now, because it'll be way too obvious and it won't count.]
The worst that can happen is... nothing happens. So I guess it can't hurt to try.

this is enough information that she's almost forgotten how angry she is with him.]
...who's been on the lists so far? And if you just had to choose one, why did two people die this week?

I guess that makes sense...
[as much as anything about murder academy makes sense, anyway.]
How did you guys decide who to... you know... kill?

I wish there was a better way.

If this is really about saving people, there's a whole bunch of people who would want to help.

[her brow furrows...]
Or maybe it did, and that's why someone went after Sieghart...?
no subject
I don't think we would have been allowed to do that if there was any risk.
