At the end of the first full day of the Story

[shakenit]

[Sumire is treating her journal... like a journal, because why not. It's not like any of the people she'd talk to about this stuff otherwise are here.]

I suppose I've at least found one useful inroad, but I still feel so lost, trying to make sense of this. Akechi-san would have it all figured out by now, I'm sure.

What we need is a way to coordinate without drawing attention to ourselves as outsiders, but I don't know what that would be.

[Guess who learned Reply All and doesn't know it! Someone may want to let her know this isn't quite as private as she intended.]

[Added after Hikaru's comment:]

Sorry about that, everyone. This is Sumire. I suppose I got what I asked for.

I found Siobhan-san - Sigrid, at the moment - and she's offered to help me get ready for the masquerade. At least I got to choose my own mask. Does anyone have much sense of what's going on besides that yet?

Then they can take the Romeo and Juliet path and lose their happily ever after.

[shakenit]

Didn't they try faking their deaths? [She's just saying. There's no guarantee it'd work even if these people agree to it.]

Surely there's got to be a solution that takes a middle path.

[curzed]

Unless I misremember the ending there was nothing faked about their demises.

But what if they refuse to cooperate~?

We are here clear minded and aware in order to shove the story along. Cooperating would be nice but plan for the worst.
