Day 2, post execution - Yomiel

[murimurimuri]

[Money is monkeying around in the halls, as he does. When he spies Yomiel, however, he beckons for him, ooking persistently as he tries to draw him away from other people and back to Knightley's room. At the moment Knightley isn't there, however; it's Simon who pops his head out.]

Psst! Psssst! Mr. Yomiel! I have something I need to tell you before curfew!

[ It's not difficult for Money to get Yomiel to follow him, and, well, he's hardly surprised at who he's led to. Who else would it be? ]

Hey, Simon. What is it?

[murimurimuri]

[Simon sends Money back outside to act as a lookout. He sure is skittish.]

Right! Okay! I'm a little nervous to say it out loud, but I'm the Troubleshooter!

[schrodingers_man]

[ Goodness, he really does just have everyone telling him their roles today. Well, if he makes it tomorrow morning, this'll be useful information to have. ]

Heh, good. That's an important power you have there. We know the identity of one of the Communists right now, but unless the Loyalty Officer finds another one tonight, you shouldn't take her out. We'll need someone to execute tomorrow night. I don't think you've done anything to catch the Communists' attention, so you should be fine until we need you.

Have you told Knightley?

[murimurimuri]

Not yet. He says he's a regular citizen, and I don't have any reason to disbelieve him at this point. Rather, if he were lying I'm sure he'd have slipped up by now. So I'm going to tell him tonight. I'm pretty sure neither of you are Communists at this point, but just in case, you can be my insurance against each other. No offense.

By the one Communist we know, I assume you mean Sakura?

[schrodingers_man]

None taken. We all need to play it safe, and it's a good play. Knightley's a smart guy, you tell him you've told me all this, and even if he is an enemy, he'll know he can't make a move until I'm out of the way.

She's the one. Rin all but said it when she confessed, and, well, she couldn't exactly be direct about it given the circumstances.

[murimurimuri]

Okay, just making sure. I'll be on standby for orders from the Loyalty Officer. Please pass my name along, okay? Assuming you're not the Loyalty Officer yourself.

If they don't want to reveal themselves to me, naturally that's fine. We can set up a codeword to be used through the anonymous messaging system. But I doubt our Communists are dumb enough to try to fake my role. After all, if there were two people claiming Troubleshooter, it would be really easy to test which happened to be lying~

[schrodingers_man]

I'll pass it along, but either way, a codeword is probably a good idea. Something that doesn't have anything to do with either of our professions, of course. "Bake a cake" for the intended target, maybe? I don't think anyone would sincerely suggest that in this situation.

[murimurimuri]

Works for me. I don't even like cake.
