It keeps happening
[After that horror show of an execution, Mordecai is still restless from the investigation and trial. He has too much pent-up energy, and plenty of others are sure to be upset, too. Ashley was loved by nearly all of them, the trial was mentally draining, and that execution was crueler than it should have been.
Two hours after everyone has returned to their rooms, they'll find a note slipped under their doors.]
We can't go on with empty stomachs. There's food in the kitchen, and the dining room is always open if you need someone to talk to.
Please keep anything outside of eating and civilized conversation away from the dining hall. That room is meant to be a peaceful place for those of us that need it.
-Mordecai Benmont Jiminy
[Today, there's cream of tomato soup warming up on the stove with a set of bowls besides it. It's a more mindless dish to prepare than mashed potatoes, as much as Mordecai wants to vent his frustrations on the potatoes.
He decides to follow Cabanela's tradition and lights one more candle, and after some consideration, lights a sixth. Let those who cared about either girl pay their respects.]

So you're saying that girl was...?
[ 'not actually a psychopath to begin with?' ]

[ Some of them are being pressured, he figures. They just aren't admitting it to everybody and anybody. ]

[ That takes her by surprise. ]
No one's doubting the power of the motives... are they?
[ Has she not been paying enough attention?
(probably)Softly, after a moment: ]
Why do you think I was so upset at the trial? It wasn't just because of the crime scene.

I'm not an idiot, Katsuki, nor did I mean to imply I think you're one. I was referring to the strong connection Logan has to guns.
[ Ahh, the things we inherit from dead loves. ]
...Even if searching that room for clues did add to the stress of the situation.

[ Because that was one thing he was confused about. From his perspective, if she had confidence he didn't do it, then she shouldn't have worried so much, but what is an emotional attachment ay. ]

In some ways, she can't afford not to be. ]
...Then for both of our sakes', please work on your tone.
