week 0; friday ( shirasu )

[axilium]

[by the time belph trucks on back to his and shirasu's room, he's tired, because wow, today sure sucks.

anyway, whenever shirasu gets back, belph is at his piano, playing a song. when he notices shirasu's presence, though, he pauses.

hey, partner.]

The second case. I doubt they'd guess correctly based off of the name alone.

[rip shirasu.]

[wagashis]

...well, that at least works in our favor. That will have to do.

[axilium]

If it's any consolation, I'll admit my ability has zero use in a murder. If I'm ever forced to reveal my title, it won't implicate me as a suspect, at least.

[wagashis]

The same is true of mine. That may turn out to be a common thread, so I believe it's worth keeping an eye on.

[axilium]

Going to try and figure out people's titles, are you?

[wagashis]

Why not try? It's something to occupy myself with, and it could prove useful enough.

[axilium]

True enough. Seems like it'll be tricky, though—people don't exactly have a lot of incentive to confess.

[case in point: these two.]

[wagashis]

[why are they the way they are.]

Tricky, but not impossible, especially if we share our observations.

[axilium]

Yeah. Too bad neither of is the popular type with everyone else, huh?

[wagashis]

Have you not been making friends? And here I thought you seemed pleasant enough.

[axilium]

Remind me to use you as a character reference.

[wagashis]

[that isn't a term he's familiar with, but--]

If it would help, then I don't suppose I would mind.

[axilium]

It was a joke.

But don't worry, I'm doing my best to be buddy-buddy with the people here. [especially now that, apparently, the killing part is real.] I hope you're getting along with people not named Sousei as well...?

[wagashis]

Of course I am. There are a few who have been more helpful than I expected, even here.

[axilium]

Like who?
