[ this is a big difference from looking at ballerinas huh
fei du is... fine? maybe. he's aloof, sort of unreactive, though maybe that says more than anything else. he's got a coffee in his hands, though he's not doing much with it, short of tapping his fingertip against the side of the cup. ]
He was. [ ... ] A grim reminder that this sort of thing can strike anyone.
[ lambda seems unbothered, not quite moisturized, but she's as cool as ever. wish she'd pour one out more for rin, but she's just ok. she takes in his aloofness, though, and the coffee he isn't really drinking. ]
He wasn't the youngest or smallest, but you could see he wasn't one for battle. [ (physical) ]
Some say murder is cruel. We'll have to see if we can piece together what led him to being in the lake.
[ she doesn't know about all the pillows everywhere yet. ]
Going in with some idea of what to expect may help, but I can't help but think there might be a little more at play that we don't know yet.
[ also, it's a spoon murder, and lambda somehow feels like it's the kind of murder that'll make her wish to be too dumb to comprehend but i, ara, will love if i can figure out a single clue. ]
he nods after that, though, curling his hand around his coffee. ]
It is a bit frustrating, to have the evidence just disappear so we can't look at it in place, but, what are these situations if not frustrating? I'm sure you're right.
ah, yes. the trial system. fei du sighs a little, reaching up to rub under his glasses. ]
I don't mind the time limit, but it would be nice to have better tools. [ the time limit, to fei du, is a fun little challenge, but this is because he's a freak. ] 800 some odd acres is going to be very difficult to comb over.

[ the Crime Solving really leaping out here, but then again, that's fei du's usual. ]
I have a feeling it's going to be a long day tomorrow, Lambda.

It depends on if they dropped him in there, or he meant to be there in order to get away.
[ fei du's crime solving usual is gucci with lambda. logic is great in this chili's. ]
It's going to be an annoying one, too.

[ like a hamster wheel.... not that he thinks it's not a possibility, but! yikes!!
he sighs, drumming his fingers against the cup. ]
And you're right; then again, we ought to be more prepared than last week, at least. The more prepared, maybe the better.

[ that's wry, but. yeah. having olive oil spoon murder flashbacks.

[ her tone is light to match his tone, but she'd say it seriously, too.
her lips twist in a wry smile. ]
More reasons this trial system is a sham.
[ she may be a tad unfair to trials. ]
