[ this is very genuine praise!! he's tickled by this, and he teased harrow for not including him in it earlier, so. ] She said we were looking for something similar to the pattern of your tattoos - or, especially clean hands, like they'd been scrubbed. What was it, ink?
[Molly pulls up a sleeve - on one of the flower petals, there's just a simple dot of red on arm. You can probably only tell since he's pointing to it, buried in the other colors there, but.]
Mm, ink. So their fingers may be stained red. A needle as well - I tested to see if healing would remove the ink, but it doesn't. So even if they healed the pinprick, the mark should still be on a finger. That is, assuming anyone touched it at all.

I doubt it, though. Douman was so seriously injured - I imagine if he woke up in the middle of the night, he would've come straight here. I don't know if he would've been able to fight back, otherwise. We ought to make sure his hands are clean tomorrow when we find him, as well.
He came out before you did. I helped direct others to the medbay at the beginning, but... I don't remember seeing them here after, honestly.
[ he was. really distracted. when molly got yeeted out of wherever the fuck they were.
there's a beat, for a moment after that, like he's - thinking about it? or more like gu yun's defenses are already so low from yesterday that a single pout is more than enough, serious, or otherwise. so. he ducks in quickly afterwards and gives him a kiss, just a quick peck.
his cheeks pinken afterwards, and very valiantly, he picks up where he left off, clearing his throat.
....anyway. ]
Though, being blinded isn't necessarily a handicap, depending on how aware you of the area. [ not everyone is gu yun, however, so. thus his medbay theory. ]
[INCREDIBLY SPOILED and making a face like he knows it now. dangerous? don't you always just smooch the bros good morning. Anyway now he'll move onto bear claws, laughing a bit - wheezy still.]
No, I suppose not, but there's really no way to tell until we can see a body tomorrow. I-- I did tell you that he and Gojou argued over who would be the one to kill Omi in our little adventure, yes?
Their drama is, and I say this as someone that normally loves observing drama, a lot. So I'm not sure, but. I was sitting there bleeding to death while I watched them scream and stab each other, so certainly some tensions were running high.
[please kinkshame them]
Omi seems to be involved with them both in some way. I-- wouldn't be shocked if tomorrow plays out rather like a lover's quarrel along the way.
At least if there's no catchable killer, if that is the case, it'll be on them, and not on our failures. [ kinkshames.... ] For the record, when I mentioned impaling you yesterday, that was absolutely not how I meant it. To each their own, I suppose.
[ . . .
the. impaling comment reminds him. actually. hm. ] ... Before tomorrow, I do need to show you something. I suppose I could take a quick nap in one of these to fix it, but I'd rather not be trapped with red ink when I've done nothing wrong.
however, because he really doesn't want to be scapegoated (scapegoat me, everyone!) gu yun shifts to move off of where he was leaning against the bed and shrugs out of the top half of his silks, turning to face away from molly as he does so. they fall down to his waist, and
there on his lower back, is a sunburn
in the perfect shape of a hand. the only thing redder on him right now is probably his ears. ]
then, very seriously, turning him around by the shoulders and facing him, claws gripping tightly.]
Zixi, I-- I know you're being set up for this crime. Fuck. Alright. We'll take care of this together. I think the only way to find who did this is to compare everyone's hand sizes to the shape of that print first thing. We'll round everyone up at trial and have them all put their hand on your back, right over the mark. Don't worry. I won't let them get away with this.
laughs until he has to go ow very softly and eventually catch his breath because wow just
a lot
really good.]
And you want to get rid of it? I had to get rid of all of mine this week and you're like, oh, Mollymauk, I'm ashamed of a beautiful woman leaving a mark on me!
