[ angry or not, he's going to find a place for her to get off her feet. ]
I did not find much myself. The cemetery left us feeling oddly numb in our extremeties, which became worse the more we lingered. And I had a strange dream in the karaoke lounge last night.
[ he's going to platonically hold her hand even if the mood is dour. maybe because the mood is dour. ]
Yes. I was enjoying other people's company—as though we had been celebrating for a long while. I was getting carried away with how much fun we'd had, actually, and decided to finish it with a fight. But then I fumbled my weapon, which I couldn't draw for some reason, before I was pushed and fell down into the darkness.
That must have been an unusual feeling for you. [getting carried away from too much fun. also she means this so sincerely not in any mean way.] I wonder if that relates to what happened to either Kaeya or Rupert? If the karaoke lounge was a location.
Yes, I've gotten carried away before, but never from something so... enjoyable. [ he's kind of making a face, like it's unpleasant somehow. ] But I am not sure. Frankly, I do not know if the dreams are ever indicative of anything besides location. It's frustrating.
I am resolved to find Rupert's killer. And Kaeya's, too, if we can, but. I'm tired of the school being picked off, and no one knowing what happened. It does not sit right with me.
[ he's quiet a moment. then, more softly than before, ]
...You have a noble spirit.
[ a just soul. ]
In my previous experience, the people I arrived with were also rather liberally killed. It was... difficult. We should support Bradley and Claude where we can, while looking for whoever did this. The contract makes me doubt it is a repeat offender, but we will only know for certain if we catch them.

[yes, they can find a place to sit in the void.]

The musical chairs meant that...a chair was missing.

...Is it really that simple?
[ could it be that we overthought a clue? in a murder trial? ]
It only seems obvious in hindsight.

If it is anything like last week, we have a difficult day ahead.
