Yeah, I'm on it. [He doesn't even call Dick on being bossy because he's moving quickly, searching the bed first and then searching the conspiracy wall. He'll also start checking the closet and--]
Shit. [Into the closet he goes, starting to sort through the few things they have.] The shoes are gone, too.
I have no idea. Kagachi? But Kagachi wouldn't break in to take our stuff, that makes even less sense. [He's still throwing stuff around, thinking maybe he just misplaced them when they moved everything.]
Who else did she even really talk to besides us and Logy? Enough to trust with this, I mean.
I don't know. [ it's quiet and powerless, the realization that they didn't know that much about escha in the end, maybe, but he shakes his head-- ] How did they break in to take it in the first place? And why only those two things?
[He's purposefully not thinking about that right now, finally closing up the closet and looking around again just in case. He'll even look under the bed.]
Because they were hers, if I had to guess. But...think it's the same person who came in and bit her? What the fuck was that about?
A role that lets people break into rooms, and they picked ours?
[ he shakes his head ]
They had to have known about the shoes. They wouldn't have come in here for a poisonous plant when there's so many available in the gift shop. So either Escha or Logy must've told someone about them.
We knew where Escha's clamshell was right? She still had it on her? [He's scrubbing the back of his head as he stays on the floor.] I don't get how someone got in unless they had a master key or something else.
...I don't know who else Logy might've told. He seemed to keep to himself, but we have to get those shoes back. I'm willing to bet someone figured something out about them that we haven't.
[...] But if they only came for the shoes, why take the plant, too?
She didn't tell us about giving it away to anyone else. [ dick's-- pacing, for lack of anything else to do right now. ] It has to be a role thing, you're right.
[ but for the plant... ]
... If someone gets hurt with that-- I might not be the only guy on the ship who recognized the plant for what it was. If we assume our break-in role is on the worse side of things...
Dendrocnide moroides, better known as the "suicide plant". One of the most toxic plants in Australia. The stinging hairs on it deliver an extremely potent neurotoxin when touched. The pain from it is excruciating for the first few days, and can recur for months in the affected areas afterwards.
[ so yknow. it's fun. that it was in their room. ]
...how did none of us die. Why did Escha buy it? [What in the fuck.] Makes you wonder if it came with a note or instructions about it because if not, we're probably looking for someone who's from some version of Earth that would know about it.
We're probably also looking for someone who knew to wear gloves or something to transport the thing.
[There's a soft laugh.] Why did I even ask? [That sounds just like her. He doesn't look up from his feet.]
We'll keep an eye out for anyone who has a reaction to the plant itself. If there's nothing, we can assume it's someone who either knows or someone who knows someone who would. That was how we were working with the other poison Aizawa had, too.
[ he sighs himself, and now that they've hit an impasse, he just... slides down against a wall and sits on the floor. on opposite sides of the room from junpei ]
... Yeah. That's about all we can do right now. [ he tilts his head to stare at the ceiling ] Anyone in the profiles who know about poisons besides Illumi?
I don't know if medicine fits anyone but me. [ he hates it, thanks. ] But... plants. WWX knows a few, though I think they're more farm related. Not sure about anyone else.
Grune knows about flower collecting, apparently, though I'd rather not think about a poisonous plant in her hands.
[...but. Speaking of poison:] Hizamaru spoke to me last night. Expressed some concerns about Muzet still being poisoned when she wasn't really near Aizawa's body like Zero was. I told him I'd check in with Zero if she took an antidote yet but I haven't had a chance. Do you know anybody who might've distributed it?
Nikkari and Edelgard are the only ones I know who bought one, and they made theirs public. [ he taps his knees a bit ] I don't know how many were in the gift shop inventory in the first place. Do you think Muzet might be affected by something that isn't poison, or is it something to do with Zero?
Possibly both.. Hizamaru told me that Muzet touched the desk but didn't get too close to the body, whereas Zero was nearby. She didn't kneel like he did, but she still managed to avoid getting sick while Muzet didn't.
So. Either Zero took an antidote, Muzet is inflicted with something else, or Zero's possessed and we don't know it, so the demon deflected the poison.
I didn't want to go too into it in case there was nothing to it, but might be worth noting in general.
It might not be a bad idea to consider since we know he's the only one we can. Unless you can think of someone else to be suspicious of? The other question...which one? He can only check one at a time I thought.

[ he's got. nothing else to say to that, because it's said a bit fondly and sadly and. let's not go there. ]
It didn't come with a note. I told her when I saw it. So whoever took it either knew what it was, or they're in for a bad time right about now.

We'll keep an eye on them. Hopefully it doesn't mean anything, but... can't be too careful. Do you think we should ask Kagachi to check them?
