[ it is poison, and she dies instantly. no it's just water. he has some tea for himself, but doesn't make any move to drink it yet. ]
It would not surprise should most, if not all of these murders still be due to the shadows. But perhaps people are starting to feel driven into a corner.
[ kill someone before they get killed, save their hostage that way. ]
I've no helpful speculation, though. I just came here to suggest you get some rest.
Please don't feel that you need to do that. [ he doesn't have expectations. ] I appreciate your hard work, as I do not have much of an investigative mind myself. I'm sure that's true for many of the others.
[ they're all just doing their best. ]
Though I am sorry to burden you so, when you need to grieve as much as any of us do.
I don't really understand what they were getting at. [sigh.] We often discuss cases after the fact. They are very helpful and generous with their time. I don't mean to complain.
Gemini seems very productive. I think some of the others are a little afraid of them.
[ the npcs are varying degrees of diligent ]
But I wouldn't doubt your capabilities overmuch. We will just have to be focused and organized tomorrow. [ ... ] It will be difficult. There will be many mourning their passing.
[ three bodies. he wishes they had time to send them off, bury them for themselves. they never do, though. ]
If they're afraid of Gemini, it means they've been slacking, and they ought to be afraid.
[said very strongly, like a true simp.]
These things get very emotional. I cannot fault that, but it often makes it difficult. [...] May I ask you a favour, Dimitri? Sebastian told me last week that he was afraid to press someone as much as he felt they ought to have been, because he feared Yoo Joonghyuk.
[she bites her lip.]
I do not dislike Yoo Joonghyuk, and I understand his strong feelings in wanting to protect his loved ones. This isn't to do with him, specifically, but - you are very strong, and you are clearly an honourable person. I think perhaps you could be counted on in that situation to prevent an altercation.
...I respect Yoo, but everyone should feel safe and able to speak freely. Trial is no place for the strong to dominate the conversation. [ he feels for sebastian, who also seems to be afraid of dimitri, and also just about everyone else. ] I would certainly be willing to intervene in a case like that. You have my solemn oath.

[ he's brought her some hot lemon water. ]
It does tend to escalate.

So it does. I was surprised there was no second actor last week, the incentives are too dear. But three at once is a lot.

...Me? Why?

Because we always seem to rely on you a great deal during trial. And... we will have a great deal of evidence to look through tomorrow.

But I'm not sure I have an investigative mind, either. I was scolded by Gemini to think more like a criminal.
