Warmwood Day 2

[irenicly]

[There's a lot to do, and not a whole lot of time left to do it.

The trial hasn't been called yet when Banjou approaches Siebold. Hopefully there's enough time.]

Siebold-san, can I have a moment of your time?

Comments

[culinarian]

Of course, Banjou.

[irenicly]

[He motions for Siebold to follow him back to his cottage.

At the moment, his brother is out, so there won't be any interruptions as he leads the other man into Banjou's private room, motioning for him to take a seat at the small desk near the bed.

He'll have to make this quick, but it shouldn't take too long.]

I have reason to believe that Fulbright-san is the False Seer.

[culinarian]

[ He sits down, folding his arms. ]

Because of the anonymous note? It's strange that they claim to have dreamed about Fulbright, rather than Kimblee.

[irenicly]

[Banjou stands for now.

He doesn't think he can sit at the moment. He's a little too nervous.]

That's exactly why I think it's Fulbright-san.

Kimblee-san and his partner blocked Fulbright-san last night. If he is the False Seer, he couldn't have dreamed of anyone. I think he used himself in that note because he's aware of his own role, but he didn't want to imply anything without proof.

It doesn't make sense otherwise.

The note called Kimblee-san a liar, not a demon.

[culinarian]

...He needs to go, then. In today's trial, if possible. There is one obvious argument that can be used against that note - Fulbright was the one who argued against and voted for Kimblee. Of course he would claim that he's faithful and that Kimblee is a liar.

[irenicly]

[He nods sharply.]

Kimblee-san has already agreed to the plan, and my brother is convinced he's a demon.

In order to secure this, we need all of us to vote as a block. Do you think you have time to pass the word on?

[culinarian]

I think so, yes.

We obviously shouldn't vote as a block unless somebody presents a compelling argument that can be made against our target, but I'm sure Tsukiyama will take care of that for us today. He did a good job at convincing most of the village to abstain yesterday.

[irenicly]

Of course. We need to rally the village against him in order for it to not look suspicious.

I think my brother can do it.

[If this works, he's setting Tsukiyama to take the fall.

...if not...]

[culinarian]

...Speaking of your brother, we should consider putting him to sleep. People who can rally the village are detrimental to our goals and have to be nipped in the bud. Doing so would also discourage the Maddened from targeting you.

[irenicly]

My brother may suspect something if Fulbright-san is the False Seer.

[Banjou's nearly positive he is because of the note.]

But if that's what it's going to come to, we'll take care of it. You won't get an objection from me.
