[ he looks surprised at first, and then... pensive, mainly. ]
Okay. Didn't expect that. [ he's not reacting outwardly too much, but he takes a few steps forward and then, when nothing happens, even does a backflip to see? if anything changes? it's necessary. somehow. he moonwalks of his own volition, lastly, stepping out of it after. ] Nothing. There's no blockage at all.
[ sorry to be like this on main he still just sounds curious ]
Master Akira, please focus. [ is flipping onto shadows not enough for you sir ] Master Grayson, can you tell us the last thing you remember before waking up this morning, or not?
[ yin yu was thinking much along the same thing. he doesn't know if dick is the type of person to smoothly avoid getting in trouble or not, but that... would've been a fairly easy red flag to avoid. ]
...Not to mention, if it's the same as it was with young master Evan, then he won't be able to tell us even if he wants to.
[ they're supposed to keep each other honest, though. ] We should observe him for the rest of the day, if possible.
[ don't talk about dick like he's not there? sir. ]
[ it's much of the same for yin yu. still... he's not going to count any chicken before it hatches, and he nods. ]
...such honorable behavior speaks well of your character, Master Grayson. [ a duck of his head. his inability to...walk...like them is not an automatic death sentence. there are too many pieces to each one of these puzzles to assume anything more than a red flag. ]
[ there's a raised eyebrow at akira, because. sure. honest. let's go with that. let's ignore the keeping secrets thing in the background ]
I know I didn't do it. [ there's no hesitation when he says that? ] Unless something took over me and I don't remember it, in which case I'd rather we find out the truth as soon as possible.
[hah. . . that gets Akira to quirk his lips slightly, a barely-there smile appearing on his features. but it vanishes quickly as his expression steels, eyes firm]
Well, let's not jump to any conclusions just yet. We can bring it up tomorrow at trial, but what's going to be the most important is the evidence we find during our investigation.
. . . it's just one piece of a much larger puzzle, after all.
[ yin yu gives a nod, resolve tightening just as much. ]
I agree completely. If it's anything like last week, there will only be trace hints of a crime around the camp, and there are many of us who will be searching. I'd like to look myself, but... [ .... yeah. moonwalking. ]
....We have a long night ahead of us, and more so tomorrow.
[ it's really the backwards thing that's kind of unfortunate. the idea of having to "walk" with his back facing anyone in a camp full of murder is so unreasonably bad and stupid. not being able to do anything is terrible, but he did promise flayn he would rest after their break in, so perhaps this is just a twist of fate...
either way, he gives a mute nod to the other two, in firm agreement with akira. they figured it out last week--let's hope this week will be no different.
...now to try and reorientate himself with walking properly. ]

[before--]
I want to do a backflip like that. . .
[AKIRA???]

[ DICK, FOCUS ]
Last I remember, we were here making marshmallows. I haven't gone anywhere else.
[ ... well, he sounds truthful and unaffected enough? ]
no subject
[lifts a hand to rub at the back of his head, frowning thoughtfully before he turns to Yin Yu]
He could've just pretended if he really was awake last night, you know? He saw both of us do it first.
[but he isn't lying, so. . .????]

[ but he doesn't sound offended, sticking his hands in his pockets with a shrug ]
Whatever happens, you should tell people tomorrow. The entire point of this was to be honest with the group and hold each other accountable.
no subject
You're way too honest for your own good, you know that?

Right. I'll try to see if I can't find things out myself for today, since you guys are... otherwise incapacitated.
[ with moonwalking. ]
no subject
[they're fine. they're fine!!]
I'll see what I can find out, too. But whatever happened last night. . .
[he sets his jaw ad steels his expression]
We'll get to the bottom of it. That's for certain.
