day four, america and kirigiri

[asapplepie]

[Shortly after the trial, America will send a note to Kirigiri asking her to meet.

His room is kind of messy, although he'll tidy up just a little while waiting for her to show up.]

Okay, well...we both think you were kind of a weirdo to vote for him, but probably not a hunter.

So...the truth is, he was mostly telling the truth about what happened in our conversation and why he told everybody he had a role, but...he lied about which one of us had a role.

[construe]

[ GIVING HIM THE BIGGEST 'YOU HAVE HAMBURGER MEAT FOR A BRAIN' FACE ]

Obviously.

Didn't I say so? You were hiding something. Well, I respect your choice to clear it up.

[asapplepie]

Well if you already knew, then why would you keep saying we were suspicious?

[construe]

Because you should never have admitted to it in the first place!

[asapplepie]

The reason he said he admitted it was true, he just didn't trust me like usual and it was a big misunderstanding that was his fault.

I had a plan! I was acting like I had an important role, and then I was gonna hint I was the guy who shot Sanae. Then, all the hunters would try to kill me at night, so I'd protect myself, and no one would die.

But England thought I was just being dumb, so he stole my role and pretended it was his so I wouldn't be targeted.

[construe]

[ That plan... is honestly not that bad, if a little optimistic. ]

...Making the whole thing a thousand times more trouble than it's worth. What if the sword-wielder targets you at the same time the hunters might, hmm? Are you sure you can double-protect yourself?

[asapplepie]

Oh.

[Looks like he never thought of that.]

I dunno, but the rules they gave me were pretty specific. Like, they mentioned that I can help if someone's poisoned, and I don't even know what that means. And they said if I protect someone, they can't be killed that night, so it seems like it would say if that was true...

[construe]

P-poison? Poison is a factor in this game?

[ If she's to believe America's claim, that's... really not good news. ]

[asapplepie]

[He shrugs]

It doesn't explain, it just says I can do it. Maybe it's like...a red herring or something.

[construe]

We mustn't consider it a red herring for now. If it's true... it'll be really useful.
