[ the way at the end he's like is this the mob, internally, but

his expression flickers, and he makes a noise - a soft, humorless laugh. ]

It's always that, isn't it? The money.

[abstractart]

-yeah. Always. Everyone is always after more of it, so they can have a more comfortable life, or live somewhere safer... but then even when they have it, that's never the end of it. You need more to make the higher rent. To pay for better food. And if the company protecting your area goes under, then... suddenly you're not even safe anymore, and that money won't do you much good.

[metacognition]

[ oof. yeah! fei du smiles a little, but it's enigmatic and joyless. ]

The wheels of capitalism never stop turning, and crushing the little people asunder. If it helps any, where I'm from has a justice system, and even then, those parallels exist.

[abstractart]

They end up so crushed by it that all they know is the ground. There might as well not even be a sky... they forget how to look up to it, and even if they do, the only stars they can see are all inside the city.

[he shakes his head a little, there.]

[metacognition]

[ haha! god. yeah. ]

Mm. [ there's a pause after that, sort of thoughtful - letting that all sink in. ]

Some things never change, I guess.

[ ... ]

Circumstantial evidence is evidence that inconclusively points towards someone being guilty. It's not a smoking gun, or a guaranteed answer - for instance, if I killed someone and you found blood on my clothes, that would likely be solid evidence.

week 1, friday

[metacognition]

[ in the museum today! fei du is walking around the museum, likely looking for evidence or clues - when he spots netzach, he gives him a small nod of the head in greeting. he seems... aloof, really. ]

Netzach. [ where you at bud ] It seems we chose somewhere to sleep that might've been a crime scene.

[abstractart]

Seriously...?

[he's in here, still laying on a blahaj-- looks like he hasn't hauled himself up yet.]

What was it?

[metacognition]

[ i love this for him.

he will come over, reaching over to offer his hand. ]

Not sure yet - I've only heard hearsay, so far. Rin's dead.

[abstractart]

[he takes that offered hand, reluctantly pulling himself off the ground.]

...yeah. I saw.

[this sucks!!]

Was there something here?

[metacognition]

[ yeah.

up he goes, though. no more nappies. ]

I think so. I heard something about a statue, but like last week, it's all gone now.

[abstractart]

This is really annoying...

[things happening while they sleep, then disappearing right after...]

[metacognition]

Don't be silly, the annoying part starts tomorrow.

[ as dry as the desert, here. christ. ] Looks like this is going to become routine.

w1 sat

[metacognition]

[ void

a sort of wryly amused voice comes wherever netzach's hanging out: ]

... You know, I think if you wanted to take that drug route, no one would criticize you after today.

[ what a fucking trial. hi. ]

[abstractart]

Believe me, if I didn't still feel sick...

[ughhh. he's laying on a blahaj somewhere.]

[metacognition]

You really went through the wringer, today.

[ poor guy. he comes and sits down nearby, pulling his legs up to his chest. ]

...I'll admit, I suspected you for a while because of it - I'm sorry.

[abstractart]

...yeah. I could tell some of you did. Figured it was better to just try to help than say anything, until someone brought us up specifically.

[he was out there doing his best, probably.]

[metacognition]

I was trying to be thorough, more than anything. Now, in hindsight, it makes more sense - the entire crime scene was completely bloodless.

[ and matsui flipped out about blood like, the same way fei du did... wildin ]

What a mess.

[abstractart]

I don't blame you for that. I mean... if you guys listened to me too much last week, it would've been a problem.

[even if he didn't realize he was defending the person who did it...]

[metacognition]

Mn. Sometimes, it's the simplest answer - a lesson we could all stand to remember.

[ he reaches up to take his glasses off, and starts to clean them off with his shirt. ]

[abstractart]

...I didn't want to think it was that.

[metacognition]

[ ... ]

I didn't, either, truthfully.

[abstractart]

Mm.

I'm staying for it tomorrow, I think.

[metacognition]

I am, too.

[ bloody or otherwise. ]

[abstractart]

... just doesn't feel entirely right not to, you know?

wk 1 sun

[metacognition]

[ well hello

fei du's out here. he's at the park, sitting on a bench, holding a mug of something in his hands. occasionally, sparks flicker across his knuckles. he is absolutely still disassociating out of his fucking mind it's fine.
