Yeah, I got two. But I've seen a bunch of others, I know it's the Erased trying to warn us about Simon, [ for reasons livio cannot figure out yet ] not to kill teams with two people on it, and to protect you guys.
... And someone who really wants me to date their mom, I guess.
[ but he'll pull out his phone and show his messages: ]
from user huxian: hi livioooo my mom said she understands and shes rooting for u!!! she likes justice u know she was like so sad about fukubad fukubbb fukuzawa hahah whoops my autocorrect oh but she says she doesnt like the monkey guy and i agree he's like vanessa on that show ultimatum!! garosss i think u should be careful okayyy and whatever you dooooo
don't show this message to him
bc its a secret between us!!! ššš if u do show him then i wont tell you all the super huge secrets i know!!!!! hehe ok byeeeeeeee love uuuuu!!!
from user saintpetronilla: Be careful and do not talk in public. Do not try to cheat. This is a game that can be won. Don't be afraid to privately share this with whoever you want.
Right. Yeah. That's what I've seen too. [ uncomfy to receive warnings about simon and also seeing everyone suddenly trying to protect them? it's fine. ] Not the mom thing. Anyway.
from userĀ toprotect: im not doing a stupid "quirk" its too annoying and i dont want to so youll just have to deal with that im SORRY are these not "UNHINGED" enough for you i can show you UNHINGED ill remove every door in this place before i have to sit and capitalize every other letter like an insane person like simon would do with infinite time on their hands IS THIS GOOD ENOUGH? ARE YOU HAPPY? speaking of simon that man is a complete murderous lunatic swim away quickly but unsuspiciously
from userĀ edwardcullen: i AM HOLDING YOUR HAND,
from userĀ nerd: YOU ARE CORDIALLY INVITED TO A WIDOWS SUPPORT GROUP! JOIN THE OTHER SAD SACKS WHO LOST THE PEOPLE THEY LOVED PROBABLY ROMANTICALLY TALK TO EACH OTHER! LOVE EACH OTHER (PLATONICALLY)!
from userĀ rageintensifies: It is not stupid you don't understand the complexity of the story
You can ignore most of these. But both Ylfa and I got warnings about Simon. And after thinking about it—did Fukuzawa tell you why he killed Zelda?
[ the h one.... a simpler time. livio looks these over, mostly focusing on the simon one. ]
Not just you two, either. [ they weren't as specific, but he's seen some other anti simon messages ]
No, he didn't say anything to us. Acted on his own. I knew he was trying to find out who framed us, but I don't know how his conclusion was Zelda. Or if there was another reason.
[ livio was quite blunt with the team about how you do have to kill for points ]
...Not this week. It might just be when you get away with it.
[ he looks serious as he gazes out over the water, then at livio. ]
I haven't trusted him since he lied to you. But we've done a lot of bad things to Simon. And I didn't think he was a bad person.
But I trust Gerard. And if he's worried about our safety, then Simon must've done something. [ ... ] I can't confirm anything. But do you think he could've been there when Zelda died? There was that fur in her hair.
[ does getting killed count as getting away with it? ]
[ .... ]
Was there more than just framing him? [ i hope they've just been bullying simon this whole time i approve ]
... It's possible. Simon's good with animals, and I'm pretty sure the scratches matched a rat. But if it was just killing Zelda with Fukuzawa, I don't understand why Simon specifically would be considered a dangerous lunatic and not anyone else who killed.
[ he feels insanely bad about it!!!!! this has haunted him for a while!!! ]
But yeah. That's what I don't understand. If it's just about killing, then we've done that too. A lot of people have. [ hrmhmm ] ...If Simon had killed Shen Qingqiu, you'd have two new psychs. But you don't. Right?
I can try to ask. But the reapers don't always give details like that away.
[ it's confidence week, so he doesn't fidget or anything, but he does gingerly lift livio's hand away. because he's about to say something mean. ]
...We never figured out who killed Fukuzawa. And if they killed Zelda togetherācouldn't he have tried to cover his tracks?
I don't know if it's true. I don't like the idea. [ he could not fathom the possibility of killing his own teammate. ] It's just... something on my mind.
[ haru can do this because the same idea seems to have dawned on livio, and though his expression has been pretty blank this whole time, his eyes widen a little bit and the color drains from his face ]
Putting a compulsion in someone's head that's very hard to resist doing. For example, that week when Valerie was cursed three times, once with "being polite", that was me. I cursed her to think about how her actions and words affected other people before she spoke or acted. It doesn't always work, but.... I'm sure he fucking used it on Fuzukawa. Either to get him to kill himself or to kill Zelda.
Oh. [ it makes sense but it's not great. fukuzawa's murder hadn't left that much evidence—he can see why, now. ] ...Sorry, Livio. That's... [ it's not great. ] Watch out for Amelia.

[ and therefore framed him. ]
Did you get any new psychs this week?

[ simon thinking it's yuneyuze makes sense but not framing him because they are the same team so there is absolutely no benefit to this ]
I did. So did you?

No, just the one. Getting away with it... just means surviving and not getting voted for? If that's the case, and Fuzukawa did kill Zelda, then....
[ how do they have the special new psych? simon also killed that night? or simon killed zelda? ]
no subject
[ ): ]
But I don't know. It could mean that Simon killed Zelda, along with Fukuzawa.
no subject
[ giving his shoulder another little squeeze ]
I can see that. But it still doesn't explain what makes Simon worse than every other killer....

I'm sure he used our team power to do one or either. [ livio like i have to fucking kill simon now even though murder proposals are closed ]

Shit. I can't let him hurt either of you.
