[she's nodding!! and will even - enter. but like carefully? she's picking up the train of her dress just in case, and looks like she's.... stepping around things]
Slime on floor... Spills... Water?
[and she'll turn back to akechi - ]
But... you do not see?
[she sounds frustrated, but also not particularly surprised]
[Yeah... That's fair. He furrows his eyebrows as he watches her carefully step around what he imagines must be an incredibly messy kitchen, even if all looks neat and tidy as far as his perception goes.]
I don't. I imagine it's the same phenomenon we experienced last week.
[It's frustrating. He absolutely hates it. And— Oh.]
Babo Kim and I found a trail in the garden this morning. There was slime there, too. But we were unable to take a closer look before we were chased off by spiders.
Good. I do not want you to be hurt. [she's so direct about things]
Mm, but if... slime was by the spiders... Other places with slime maybe? [she looks around the kitchen] Nia wanted to know more cooking... Maybe found her here?
... Haha, was it that obvious? My presence isn't always welcome, so, I...
[...
He shakes his head.]
No, nevermind that. More importantly, you may be right. She could have been fast enough to avoid serious injury here, only to be caught outside. [Hrm... He taps his chin.] Though, of course, that's as long as the story doesn't accurately reflect her thoughts at the time.
[Haruka's seemed... close? Close-ish enough, anyway, even if it wasn't a perfect 1:1 parallel.]

[she's going to gesture over to the kitchen which -
looks pristine. whoops]
But... this place is making tricks again.
no subject
It
sure looks pristine.
Akechi just blinks at it before turning back to Anya.]
... You see a mess?

Hold on, you see slime on the floor?
no subject
that said - ]
Да.... Yes. Akechi knows slime? It does not get clean even if we try...

no subject
Spiders...! Страшно. Scary - you are okay?
[she'll get back on the evidence trail in a second. empathy too high]
no subject
Haha, yes. I'm touched by your concern, but there's no need to worry. We were easily able to outrun them.

no subject
... You're very kind.
[Please stop being nice to him. He has done nothing to deserve this.]
You see a mess, so a struggle may have taken place here... [Hrm.] Oh, but you don't see any blood?
no subject
Ты тоже. You are too. So I hope you are safe for very long time.
[EASILY
SO EASILY - ]
No blood.... Was there blood in the garden?
no subject
HE'S. GENUINELY SURPRISED BY THAT. And just stares at her for a hot second.]
Ah— [AH?] ... Thank you. I hope you're safe for a very long time, too. I don't want to see anyone else lose their life to this mansion.
[But they will.
So, he nods at her question.]
There were a few drops of blood in the trail. It's possible they're from Teppelin-chan herself, or... Perhaps even from her killer.
no subject
I will do my best to stay safe. [ . . . ] Почему...? Why did you look surprised?
[isn't it natural to want akechi to be safe and not hurt :( ]
Mm... So no blood in kitchen, but blood in garden... I think maybe Nia was found in kitchen.
no subject
... Haha, was it that obvious? My presence isn't always welcome, so, I...
