Then the final roll call, and on to murder time!

The scene where Genji gave Natsuhi the key to Kinzo’s room and then the talk about Natsuhi wearing the One Winged Eagle on her heart. First of all, Arria was pleased to see Genji give Natushi the key. She thought that was a nice action from him and something of a ‘social link up’ (we’ve both been playing Persona 5, so there might be more Persona jokes coming). In the scene afterward with Kinzo, she realized that he was acting differently. She questioned if he had a brain tumor or some other medical issue with his brain that would cause a personality change. She also wonders whether he’s being kind here because he genuinely believes that his kids are shit and Natsuhi would make a better daughter, or if he’s being kind as a way to ‘ease her upcoming death’. She then mentions a line from Game of Thrones where someone said something about calming and petting a lamb and then killing it without it being able to see the knife.

Of course, I see the scene as Natsuhi talking to herself and making herself feel important even though no one else likes her. We like you, Natsuhi!

Then we find the murders happened. She didn’t expect the level of gore that was described. “I thought it would be about here on a level of gore” (hand by her breast). “It jumped to here really quick” (hand to her head). She thought it was dumb that they opened the creepy door to begin with, but of course that’s necessary in these kinds of stories. “If this were real life, we’d get everyone together and wait until the cops are able to handle everything. ‘If one person has to pee, we’re all peeing together.’” And of course she figured Shannon would be dead because she raised so many death flags. This scene with George is touching. I also notice that only Hideyoshi touched/investigated Shannon’s body, so more evidence that it’s fake and Hideyoshi is in on the plan. Arria also went genre-savvy for a moment and complained about people stepping all over in the evidence and I told her that later on the game will acknowledge that. I didn’t know if they would do so here, but sure enough in a few more lines, Eva told everyone that we’d all fucked up by stepping in the scene.

Arria asked me to remind her of where everyone was at last night. This was what I came up with:

Krauss, Rudolf, Kyrie, Rosa were discussing inheritance bullshit in the parlor (mansion)
Natsuhi went to bed and put a scorpion charm over her door. In the morning, it was bloody (mansion)
Eva and Hideyoshi went to their rooms in the (mansion)
Gohda and Shannon were assigned to work in the (mansion)
Kumasawa was asleep in the (mansion)
Kinzo was in his study (mansion)
Battler, George, Jessica, and Maria were sleeping in the (guesthouse)
Genji and Kanon were assigned to the (guesthouse)
Nanjo was apparently being a walrus on the (beach). We don’t know where he was (?)
