[ 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 together—couldn'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.

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....
