#and also tbh I just like culprit!eden more but that's neither here nor there

[a-star-that-burns-brightly]

I've joked about this before but I'm gonna make an actual post about it because CH2-15 is less than an hour away and all thoughts are on the table because they're gonna be confirmed right or wrong anyway The main sticking point for me about Ace being the culprit that puts him above Eden is that, no matter how hard I try to suspend my disbelief, I simply cannot believe that Ace perfectly memorized a murder method while he was - just woken up, probably very dazed from being practically chloroformed - in extreme pain + literally dying - fighting for his life against the wire - falling and hitting his head on the floor (more than likely very soon after he woke up) - waking up again, his neck bleeding profusely, once again in extreme pain - now with the extra casualty of extreme bloodlust - was, presumably, facing teruko while yelling at her so he wouldn't had even been facing the crime scene - running out of the room, again, in extreme pain bloodlust clouding his mind and a profusely bleeding neck

I just cannot imagine Ace having any rational thought during those moments. And I don't say that because Ace is stupid (...he is, but that's besides the point), I say that because Ace has been shown to be incredibly impulsive and one-track minded, and that combined with every-goddamn-thing else? Yeah... if this is the route that DT-Dev goes down I won't like, have a problem with it, I honestly trust they could pull off anything. But as it stands now... I just don't see it

If Ace turns out to be the culprit I will put on a clown wig and paint myself white lmao
