[ For the first time, Naoto addresses the whole of the Mansion through video. She will be standing in an unidentified room, next to an uncovered mirror.

It’s time for an ~*experiment*~ ]

As I heard from Ivanova-san, one can communicate with the Mansion’s natives, Wonderland characters and Mirrors, through writing on the mirrors.

[ Naoto,

Comments

[tobethebest]

I'm right here, but I haven't seen the trebuchet anywhere. I thought you had it?

[detectiveace]

I saw it last in the dining room, right after the event had ended. Unfortunately, I left it unattended when I went to check on other things.

[tobethebest]

That's the last place I saw it too! I would have thought it would still be there. I mean. ...No one can really just walk away with a trebuchet without someone noticing, right? That's just stupid. Someone would have to have seen it.

[detectiveace]

[ stealth trebuchet. ]

Perhaps. Though, it contained materials from the event, correct? Maybe the Mansion reabsorbed it at some point? [ this is merely hypothesis because the real culprit is that dick, adachi. ]

[Written on the mirror in impeccably neat handwriting]

[heartless_eagle]

We're always here. Did you want something, boy?

[mirror]

[detectiveace]

[ it takes her a while to respond, since she's systematically checking all the other mirrors... all over the Mansion. it involves lots of running.

but hey, oh look! a response! it's really hard not to act excited, since she knows whoever's mirror responded is probably watching. but naoto pulls it off. ]

YES. I HAVE A FEW QUESTIONS TO ASK, IF YOU HAVE TIME.

[mirror]

[heartless_eagle]

I'm not guaranteeing you answers, but ask.

[mirror]

[detectiveace]

TO BEGIN, WHO ARE YOU?

[mirror]

[bombing4therapy]

There are lots of us here. Why didn't you talk to us when we were over there?

[mirror]

[detectiveace]

[ like with all her responses, it'll be a little bit of time before she checks this particular mirror. ]

UNFORTUNATELY, I WAS OCCUPIED WITH THE PROTECTION OF OTHERS DUE TO A FEW RATHER VIOLENT MIRRORS. [ and with being dead. but she won't mention that. ]

WHO ARE YOU?

[mirror]

[bombing4therapy]

[He's actually been waiting there. Because he has nothing better to do, recovering from a fight and all.]

I'm Gokudera's mirror.

[The underlining is not meant as emphasis. More like "I don't like using this name."]

[mirror]

[detectiveace]

DO YOU HAVE ANY OTHER NAME?

[Mirror]

[holyandbitchy]

It's been a while since one of your kind tried to talk to us this way.

[Mirror]

[detectiveace]

[ systematically checking each mirror aaaanndddd-- hey, a response. oh yay. ]

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME? [ it would be nice to get some of his/her information, if s/he were still in the Mansion. ]

Re: [Mirror]

[holyandbitchy]

Why should I answer you? Do you have something interesting to say?

[Mirror]

[detectiveace]

I AM MERELY INQUIRING. IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO ANSWER, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO. IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS FOR MYSELF, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK.

[ god, it takes forever to write backwards, man. it really does. ]

[video]

[letstalkmurders]

[Have a contemplative-looking Adachi with his back to a wall. He also has a... black eye? That certainly wasn't there when he was with Naoto in the dining room.]

You mean the silverware catapult? How'd you lose that? That thing was huge!

[video]

[detectiveace]

Precisely. [ SIGH. it's not like adachi can help find it, though 8| ]

...Perhaps you ought to put ice on that. [ point in the general direction of your eye. ] In case of swelling.

[video]

[letstalkmurders]

Huh? Ice on what? Those scratches didn't get infected, did they--!? [BRB CHECKING ARM oh man if something that big gets infected don't they have to amputate it!? Is that real or just fake TV show information from panicked subconscious!?]

[video]

[detectiveace]

Your eye.
