    "Lee already got back to us to clear Nilam fer the murders so far. And, uh... six 'hours', but hours sure do fly by here..."

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Jesse scratched at his cheek fur. "Okay. I've had a minute to think about this. There ain't hard evidence fer either of ya besides that Nilam is cleared fer the murders so far. Nilam could be an accomplice. Nocitlalin could be a murderer or an accomplice. Mia targeted Noci, but we all know that...

    "A board game, huh? Only if'n ya don't mind me winnin'," said Jesse, with a grin.

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Jesse eyed Darkwhite carefully. "I still got faith in you, y'know," he said. "I just ain't buyin' that you're one of the scum."

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Jesse gingerly lowered himself into the couch again. "Of course, this is assumin' nobody's escaped our scrutiny through use of alignment-concealin' powers, that alignments don't change, that there are three Naughty guests... it's a lot of assumptions."

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    "To sum, the original murderer was either Mia or Nocitlalin, probably Mia. I still like Nilam best fer our next accomplice. Not sure who our third scumbag is." Jesse's Take: Confirmed Nice/Neutral Who Fuckin' Knows Probably Naughty Confirmed Naughty Jesse Nocitlalin Nilam Mia 💀 Palkia...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Jesse blearily looked up from his chalkboards. "The committee are insufferable bastards who ain't even tryin' t'make sense. Talkin' back to 'em gets you electrocuted. The nickit was a mass fuckin' hallucination. Yeah, that all just about fuckin' tracks." He clawed at his face in unsuppressed...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Jesse patted the kid's head in an attempt to reassure him. "Yer story don't have to be accurate, or even one you entirely believe. Remember, we all vote fer the guilty party afterwards. Maybe Lee will get lucky and Nilam'll be our bastard to vote fer."

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Jesse raised a full-throated vulpine growl in his throat. "Right. Let's get back to it. We have four 'prophets' who're meant to each make a case that a particular guest is guilty of Squirt's kidnappin'. Y'all gotta choose a different target each. Then we vote." Odysseus Steve Jobs Romulus...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    "Thank you," managed Jesse. Of course, the cookie then sprouted eyes, which he peered into with contempt, before dropping the fucking thing. "Darkwhite, any idea what's goin' on??" Jesse looked the ralts in the eye. "Sheer fuckin' determination. Help from a friend. Faith." And maybe the...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Jesse held his breath and clenched his fists hard enough to snap the sticks of chalk in his paws. He closed his eyes. "Yeah. Gimme a sec. I've been through some shit like this before and it's... it's all comin' back up." The tension seemed to pass out of Jesse, and he dropped the chalk to the...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    "This fuckin' bullshit ain't within any established parameters of any kind. This ain't right. This ain't fuckin' right. Did one of you do this? Did one of you fuck with everyone's heads? Is this some weird fuckin' goddamn power?" Jesse's hands were at his wands, but he knew. He knew they...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    "Y'all, I am beyond weirded out by this," hissed Jesse, teeth clenching. How stupid of him to have forgotten that this was the place that chose to prod and poke him over Brisa the way it had. This was not a place of reason, or kindness, or justice. It was a place of vindictive mania.

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Jesse furrowed his brow and reexamined his boards. "Noci's statements about her intented actions and the results seen so far line up very well. It's not her fault if her power has simply fizzled every time because of circumstances outside her control. Meanwhile Nilam hasn't offered any...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Jesse grinned, and tried not to think too much about being murdered. Hey, the guy liked him. That was something. "Thanks fer this, partner. I'll be makin' a note." "Gen claims to have one of five possible powers. I made a list; they're all good. Nocitlalin claims to have a target redirection...

    Spirits' Edge

    It was a house. At first she didn't recognise it, from the angle, the lack of surrounding environment, and the way it looked far newer than she was used to, but she knew it. A specific, particular house. Wooden in construction, perched on a stone-strewn knoll, large enough for a small family to...

    "Noted," said Jesse with a nod. "Though it leaves me with a feelin' of grave uncertainty about whether a kill was attempted last night, the order in which each power activated, and where it leaves us. I'm still likin' my informed suspicions, though. Got any contrary suppositions?"

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    "I've no idea, partner," drawled Jesse, raising a brow. "Maybe not! But you are on our side, as far as I can tell, which means I don't really fuckin' care. So, you're sayin' ya may or may not have protected Abigail. I'm sure we all appreciate yer help, but I'd appreciate yer elaboration, too. My...

    Jesse approached Lee and pulled him into a hug. "Was worried you were gonna bite it, partner. Fuckin' relieved to see ya safe." "Alright, big shot. Out with it. Y'keep sayin' y'ain't yer sibling. What are you implyin', that you were the one who fucked around with Night 4? That you know...
