[Prologue, Tuesday: Nico]

[Akechi doesn't spend too much time mulling over the tapestries, but he is there long enough to read through each one more than once. which is a pretty good time to catch him for conversation, actually!]

['sup Nico, this detective kid is free to be approached at any time, even though he looks kind of distracted staring at his own profile]

Did they have to put it so. . . bluntly?

[Prologue, Tuesday: Ion (older)]

[WELL. . . the tapestries make one thing clear that Akechi hadn't even noticed over the course of the weekend]

[there are twins in the manor]

[and upon scanning both of those profiles, he sets out to flag one of them down. how lucky of him to find the older one first! not that. . . he can tell that from a first glance]

Ion-san?

[. . . shit how to tell them apart]

Seventh replica, or ill-fated prophet?
