[Well. We should timeskip to Sunday evening in a bit but this is just to establish Harrow didn't actually have anything to talk to him about and was just giving him an excuse to let her walk with him back to his room.]
. . . You were right, you managed it. Waiting long enough for her to give her romantic little speech was reckless.
[ lo and behold! here's gu yun, a few moments after the knock. he's since changed clothes, wet hair tied back into a ponytail, and he offers harrow an easy smile as he opens the door. come on in! ]
I'm still about the same as I was earlier. You can speak. Just stay nearby.
Understand that the specific text was to meet her in the garden because she had something to say for confession week. I became very alarmed, even though I was aware she had a boyfriend.
And yet, it was actually much worse than expected. She made us flower crowns and told me all of her murder plans.
No, I don't think so. She told me she was given a power from Gluttony, and would use it to kill someone, but in what must have come as a shock to her, I didn't react well to this. So she didn't wind up telling me who she meant to target or what the power was.
[. . .]
But as you know, Oliver Twist let me borrow another power. I used Unholy Hunger and gave her an obsession Thursday during curfew - don't let anyone die, including yourself.
She woke to go kill Grace, her intended target, but the obsession prevented her from carrying it out. Someone else killed Eleanor, but she was still deemed guilty of murder because her intent had been to commit it.
Aha, I see! Clever - push that same story off on Misa. Well. That's something to remember in the future, I suppose.
[ that does make a bit more sense, yeah. ]
That's what Greed told me about, that last part. I gave them my theory as to where the injury came from, and I wasn't that far off - that she was punished by the indulgence center itself for not following through. We were meant to find it, Greed said.
That seems. . . incredibly cruel. It isn't as though she made the decision herself.
[She's pissed about this.]
Her distress at trial was real, in a sense. When she kept talking about how panicked she was when she woke up with the burn, how she couldn't involve anyone because she didn't want them to become suspected and die, but didn't want herself to die either -
She felt that way at the time because she was still under my curse.
Mm. It is cruel. They said that this place doesn't like it when people back out - and that it wasn't the first time something like this had happened, either. Where this place had punished people.
Beauregard was my first thought. [ ...
anyway. he doesn't have more to add about that, but. in regards to misa - ] That does make sense. It's why I thought it completely impossible that she could have killed Eleanor.

The curse wore off about an hour ago. What would you like to speak of - the trial? Today?
no subject
I don't need to speak about today, really. [ sometimes you execute someone. it's fine. ]
However. Working backwards - what was Vira talking about? Do you remember it? She mentioned Misa had a power from Gluttony.
no subject
. . . Do you remember last week, when I texted you some rather harsh things? Well. It wasn't a love confession after all.

Well. Glad you didn't reject her, then.
[ BAD.
he's kidding. probably. ] I can tell you with honesty, I don't know how I expected that story to end, but it wasn't that way. She killed Eleanor?

So what if those pieces of evidence that clearly pointed to her were placed not by him, but by the center itself?
