Yeah, well, don't blame me! No one bothered to tell me until yesterday, because they all assumed I'd do something crazy if I knew! And then we couldn't find her all day.
[Like, he gets it, Toi, but he absolutely would have told you.]
Anyway, just. I don't think there's anything you could've done to save her, not at this point. But I didn't want you to find out for the first time tomorrow.
[ he is definitely bristling, but that manages to... well, not make him feel better, but he does seem slightly less agitated. galo is now the only valid person in this club.
but he lets out a groan, before pulling something out of his pocket. it's a piece of a paper. ]
When I woke up, I had a note. It's from her. [ he doesn't hand it over to galo, but he does read from it. ] "I wanted to tell you, too." Apparently she asked Plum to give it to me today, so...
Last week, Peach told me that it's something like. There's a defense mechanism that makes them do whatever it takes to keep from being caught. I thought she only meant they were mimicking the person they infected, but maybe it's worse than that.
[Because it does sound worse. To be stuck like that, knowing you want to warn your friends, but unable to.]
If the only reason she was awake was because she was targeted, then it makes it less likely that she killed someone else. Which would mean there's still one or two other unknown killers who went after the other two.

[ funny. ]
Well, I guess that means there's only two murders everyone will have to figure out tomorrow. Great.

If she wrote that. That means she was still herself in some way. She still cared.

[ maybe they can ask plum about it tomorrow, even if the thought of spending nine hours yelling is not something he is looking forward to. ]

[ he tries to think back to their conversations since the trial, anything that might have been a hint...
he just shakes his head. ]

Do you know if someone went out to kill her specifically? We could probably try to narrow down if another victim was her or not that way.

So that's what I assumed.

trail of slime and water and scales she seems to leave behind ]
