I was pretty focused on people who were stayin' with us that night before, but now that we know that was a distraction [ and aki was ooc out lmao ] we ought to go back to lookin' at everyone.
I know Saber came up before, but it seemed like whoever Zhongli fought might not have been comfortable in close combat if they were throwin' sand in his eyes, so that feels like a pretty big point against them. Maomao could be plausible.
Ah, good shout. Started mixin' up all that tunnel evidence in my mind.
[ hmm ]
Jacopo was on that list, right? Felt like he seemed off compared to his usual... but I barely know him, so I could be wrong about that. You talk to him much?
Claude and Richie... I think that, if needed, they would be very resourceful and they would fight dirty. Richie is missing his left arm, and Claude's left arm was in a cast... It would be difficult for them, but I do not know that it would be impossible.
Oh, I'm sure Claude could do it, yeah. Arm in a cast's still a lot different to not havin' one at all.
...If that theory about 'em leaving kids out of the bruising plot is true [ which he is still annoyed to be included in if so??? ], that does seem more like a Richie thing, though. He's pretty sensitive to that, seein' kids hurt.
[ there are so few of them left now that it's harder to tell whether that one was a meaningful pattern or not, especially with the firefly exception, but. ]
You thinkin' that could've been what wrecked that booth at the fairgrounds?
Perhaps... although, I think it would have left burns if it exploded. So maybe something crashed into it... or someone? I did not see how close the rollercoaster is to the booth, but perhaps from there...

... Is it too late to figure out who it was? We did have a suspect list...

[ she pulls out the little floral notebook that zuriel gave her. ]
He had cuts on his hands from various causes, but no witnesses who could confirm them. They were not a match for Zhongli's weapon, though.

[ which would... not necessarily be unrelated... ]
Aside from him... Mizu's probably the same as Saber, wouldn't need to try to disable an opponent like that. Claude... might be an option.
[ one he does not like, but it's there. ]
Maybe Richie, but. Seems a little much to do one-handed.

[ which... maybe a lot of people would do. but perhaps not everyone. ]
I wonder if we should have examined that explosive of his more carefully. Although, I don't think I would know what to look for, exactly.
