[Mafia] Escape from Zombie Park Island 3
"Now read it." Hordak ordered bluntly.
If you hear about someone putting characters through intense despair and misery, then that someone is probably me.
"Hmmm..."
Hiiii!
Right.

That notebook was probably a log kept by Illina. Not sure why she'd do that, but it does seem like that is what it is.
hey who turned out the lights?
"Well, maybe. But whoever did this is still out there! We have to stop them, and quick! You think we might be getting closer to finding out the culprit?"
Hiiii!
I... have a theory as to broadly what has happened this past week. Some of it might be a stretch, but I've tried to be reasonable here.

Dusk clears his throat before speaking.

My theory is that Tsumugi is the last zombie. I mean, it's obvious for me, as the evidence does not point at Waddle Dee or Hordak.
On the first night, I cannot say who murdered the Rutherhorde. Any of the zombies whether it is Illina, Guts or Tsumugi, could have done it. They might have even all be zombies from day one.
On the second night, again, I cannot say who killed Fluttershy, but that is not the important part. They framed two particular people - myself in an obvous way, and Edd in a more subversive way. They saw that you see through the obvous frame, and it gave them reasurance that being bold and brash is the more viable approach.
On the third night, Guts killed Hitomi. They went for the "it's too obvious" approach, but it backfired without a succesful frame-up. They shift their tactics slightly, but keep them, thinking that you'd agree that they'd change things up.
On the fourth night, Illina killed Mikel. Learning from their mistake, instead of having the real killer "frame" themselves, Illina framed Tsumugi in an attempt to clear her. Alas, since Illina died, they couldn't properly carry out the plan, leaving Tsumuig with suspicon, but not enough for quarantine.
Finally, last night, Tsumugi killed Nepeta. They go for the obvious frame on me, since we started to learn their tactics of hiding in a spectacle, with a viable solution of Tsumugi so that we all might think she's being framed.

What does everyone think? Do you think that my theory has merit, or do you see any holes in it that I haven't yet?
hey who turned out the lights?
... Okay. I... Hold on. What's stopping it from being YOU trying to frame ME trying to frame you. Or anyone else... Because maybe it's something along the lines of "the killer KNEW that I was a potential suspect due to the fact that the letter had an icon that only I recognized, despite the fact that it wasn't anywhere on the island, and the fact that I was a day 1 bite victim. " It'd be a convenient frame. But, telling from Hitomi's and Fluttershy's cases... JUST that wasn't going to be enough. So, in this case, the killer, whoever it was, made the framing of the KILLER obvious, leaving us to ignore that... maybe the killer WANTED us to think that.

Basically, what I'm saying is that... maybe this whole framing of Dusk and it being me is just another layer for ANOTHER frame, and maybe I'M the one that's been framed for this murder, done by someone else, intentionally designed to LOOK like it was ME framing Dusk.

And yeah, I know, a double-layered frame sounds ridiculous, but I... I just want to give my opinion and do my best to give my reason for why I'm innocent in all of this. Again, agree to disagree, and point out any holes in MY reasoning, too. And besides... I've been bit twice, so I've had more chances to become a zombie than Dusk, who only got bitten once... but still. If this doesn't convince you... Feel free to vote for me. At least I tried.
I don't understand any of this... I'm in a world of complete insanity...
There is nothing stopping that. There is nothing stopping any of our theories, aside from the fact that only one can be true. We just need to let the other two make their choices.
hey who turned out the lights?
... And if you do decide to vote for me... I won't hold it against any of you. Really. I tried my best, and that's all that matters... right?
I don't understand any of this... I'm in a world of complete insanity...
"I... i'm not sure. But perhaps... just perhaps... Dusk might be right here."
Hiiii!
Dusk turns to Hordak.

Hordak, what do you think? It seems that you will be the one deciding here.
hey who turned out the lights?
... Well. I tried. Best of luck to all of you...

Tsumugi just accepts her fate...
I don't understand any of this... I'm in a world of complete insanity...
Hordak's scarred ears twitced. He signaled the end of his thought pattern with a cough before speaking. "Well...I never turned. If Dusk wanted to kill someone, he would have used his sword. And Waddle Dee...you are insufficiently sized to have done any of this. I was only here in time for Hitomi's murder, so I cannot judge on the past cases."

Hordak... er... I don't have a sword? I appreciate that you think I'm not suspicious, but... why do you think I have a sword?
hey who turned out the lights?
"Didn't you? Or was that Guts?"
If you hear about someone putting characters through intense despair and misery, then that someone is probably me.
That was Guts, yes.
hey who turned out the lights?
"'Pulling the strings this time...'" Hordak mused over the note from Hitomi's case. "Pulling the strings"? In what situation has Tsu ever been pulling strings on her own? "The one thing your theory is missing is what that sentence means. It seems to me that Tsumugi has...coordinated things before we were brought to the island."
If you hear about someone putting characters through intense despair and misery, then that someone is probably me.
Honestly... I cannot explain that. I think, however, it may be irrelevant, something that she did in the past. It may not have anything to do with the virus, this island, or murder.
hey who turned out the lights?
"But we know the zombies were organized. What if Tsumugi was pulling their strings?"
If you hear about someone putting characters through intense despair and misery, then that someone is probably me.
I'm not sure I entirely understand what you're saying.
hey who turned out the lights?
... I... Can't... remember...

Tsumugi's memories start flashing... vague memories... from... not here... with faces she can't even recognize... why can't she remember... anything... at all...

These memories... I... they're not... from here... but then... why am I... Why did I recognize that symbol... if I don't know...?

Tsumugi's memories quickly pass by... like glances in the channels of a TV... Not even a second occurs before the next memory passes... fragmented and corrupted... missing details all over the place...

What does it mean... what does the note mean?!
I don't understand any of this... I'm in a world of complete insanity...
Hordak's eyes widened. "I see...You see, Guts, what I am attempting to say is that Tsumugi may have been the real leader of the zombies, she only killed last to cover herself up. She wanted to pull the strings among the other zombies, as she seems to so long ago."
If you hear about someone putting characters through intense despair and misery, then that someone is probably me.
... I think I understand, yes. So, are you saying she needs to be quarantined?

(also am not Guts)
hey who turned out the lights?
(My mind's a little frazzled today hehe)
"Yes. Everything points to her, it's just...she seems deeper than she appears."
