day two - afternoon

[guestcontrol]

dreamland day two 39 players remaining. [As the day wears on into the afternoon, the dead aren't getting any deader. It's late in the afternoon, and the air is beginning to cool, when the chimes play again over the park loudspeaker. "All of us here at Dreamland wish you luck, guests! Let's meet up in the Hall of Mirrors!" Wherever you are, it's time to make your way over to the House of Horrors, where you'll have to brave the funhouse to find the room on the top floor. Don't delay, or your guest identification bracelet will begin beeping. The House of Mirrors is a large room, more than capable of fitting a crowd. Tall mirrors line every wall, and the door you entered through seems to vanish into a mirror as well. The mirrors give the impression that many, many more are among your number, standing in the background. In the back is a jar filled with blank raffle tickets. You'll have to take a ticket, write down a name, and place it back in the jar. Hopefully you already know who you're voting for, but if not, you only have time for a brief discussion before you're out of time. rulebook character statuses private conversations graveyard Voting will close at 10 PM EST on September 27.

I don't deny it. I'm not the real detective.

But if Missile is really one of the buddy cops, then he should know that I'm not a VIP, either. My intention was to deceive the VIPs — to see how they would react. I gave Kurapika a written note explaining this, and told Aaya last night as well.

I'm not your enemy. I don't mind suffering the consequences for the risk I took, but you'll be wasting your vote killing me.

[photoshot]

I'll confirm that Mr. Levi did not know the symbol identifying the anonymous detective. He's not the note-sender. Whoever that is remains a mystery.

[perfectstrike]

Why did you earlier say that he did?

You are being contradictory.

[photoshot]

Whenever did I say that?

[jingler]

It can't be Missile either, because he can't write. So whoever wrote that letter is either a fraud or the buddy cops.

[sunshade]

...do you suppose we should take handwriting samples? If we can pry the note from her, it might be beneficial.

[ saying that like aya totally isn't in the room. sorry birdfriend you are getting way too infuriating for her to directly respond to ]

[shoutoku_administrator]

How can you prove that he didn't know the symbol?

[photonement]

But Aya-chan, couldn't he be lying that he doesn't know the symbol?

[mediumburgers]

Huh, that is weird. Maybe it was a different VIP?

[eventhandler]

...You lied to me.

[He asked you earlier about it, and you lied to him.]

[jingler]

...Levi, I'm sorry, but this is far too much. You have been hindering us more than you have been helping and you have been misguiding us to lynch Legion under the pretense of being the detective.

Perhaps you aren't a VIP, but at this stage I feel as though it is foolish for you to continue in this game regardless. You are not helping.

[Cold, yes, but it's his honest opinion.]

[flatview]

Are you saying we should kill him?

[ she looks........sort of excited.......nui no. ]

[shortcutter]

Misguided? Who, exactly, were you all going to vote for if you hadn't exposed me, or if I hadn't come forward in the first place? Or were all of you going to continue floundering like cowards?

[ionicwoman]

What the hell are you playing at?! You put us all in danger!

[shortcutter]

No more danger than before.

[foetida]

Are you serious? How dare you? [Nanami looks like she's about to slap Levi - the only thing that's holding her back is that he's old enough to still be intimidating to her.]

We wasted so much time because we thought you were telling the truth! What if we really had executed Legion and he was innocent? His blood would have been entirely on your hands!

[shortcutter]

That was a risk I was willing to take. If Legion was innocent, I wouldn't have survived the next vote.

[sparklyrichbastard]

Shame on you, toying with everyone like that!

[mediumburgers]

So you admit it! You're a lying liar who lies! We can't believe a word you say!

[siggey]

...

...

I've got just one question for you, Levi. What kind of soldier are you, in term of ranks?

[shortcutter]

Captain.

[glasshole]

You say all that, but isn't it the case...

Your true intention was to preserve your own life? Regardless, you almost certainly stole the protection of the medical team. Who may have otherwise protected a person who actually attempted to help us. A person like Fuyuhiko Kuzuryuu, perhaps.

Even if you were telling the truth, and you were only a moron, not a killer...

[shortcutter]

You fucking brat.

If no one had sniffed me out and all of you voted for Legion, one of two things could have happened. One, Legion was guilty, and everyone would continue believing I was the real detective — including the VIPs.

If he was innocent, then next time you all would vote for me to die. That was the risk I knew I was taking, and I would have accepted it.

[chainjailer]

If the detective didn't send that note, why were you so adamant to defend it? What were you thinking?!

[He's pretty upset. All these claims that Levi killed Yuya... It couldn't be, could it?]

Either you were manipulated... Or I was.

[royalizing]

That's not an acceptable risk! You nearly had us all kill someone who could have been innocent!
