Seriously. At least back in my last one, we got to look at the scene a little bit before the trial. What are we supposed to do when we can't look at the body or the scene of the crime?
...Goodness, sounds like you had to do a lot of the work without any guidance at all, hah. We were shepherded around a fair amount. Had a limited amount of time to look at the crime scene before Saturday, but plenty of time during trial to examine that and the body. Or bodies.

It's one possibility, certainly. We've already seen they act differently one-on-one than they do in public. It's also possible that if there is another party responsible, we're dealing with some sort of possession situation again - but I'm not so sure about that, this time.
[He like, wishes it was a possession mechanic?? Which by virtue of his shitty luck means there probably isn't one.]
I still have mixed feelings on the whole possession thing, but I think I'm solidly landing on the 'I hope it's not that' side. Akira mentioned that someone who's possessed would kill again if we didn't catch them, right? But someone who was motivated for whatever other reason might not.
[They're really scraping the bottom of the barrel good lord.]
Hah, true... That's the way it worked with us, too. If a possessed host escaped, we'd end up with another victim the next week. We didn't have to worry about that too often ourselves, but the possibility was never one to take lightly.
[That mood when you never get a killer wrong even if sometimes you miss the mark when there are more than two in a week.]

...So you had a bit of time to examine both the day before and had to just rely on that through your trial?

I do hope that's not the case for us here, hah.

I guess we'll see tomorrow.

There are a lot of things we'll see tomorrow, for better or for worse.

If anything, I'd like to ask our killer exactly what it is that drove them this time.

[It’s still messed up.]
What’s the point? You think those three offered them something that the rest of us don’t know about yet?
