Digitalis Old English folklore said that foxes wore the flowers on their paws to silence movement and stealthily stalk prey. Healing, pain, insincerity, insecurity
Of course I do. Karlach's the tallest person we have, followed by Iwatooshi...there's a pretty big difference between him and the rest.
Lavi, Geto, Alfyn and Ichiban were all about the same height, and Rondo and Gojo are slightly taller. But only slightly. [so why would you need a poncho as large as karlach...?]
They may be our tallest, but the difference between Mr. Geto and Karlach is very notable.
[ ...Mm. ]
With the way the evidence was going, I didn't want to waste time on discovering another piece of evidence just belonged to Mr. Kasuga himself again, but...
It's odd, to say the least, to see that level of violence and the only blood trace to be from the victim themselves. Unless they wore a protective, waterproof covering?
We were speculating, weren't we? That the ponchos were meant to shield from blood and wine. It's possible that someone helped Erin with Karma, and then went to take care of Ichiban on their own while Erin rolled the barrel into the sea. That material meant that nothing would stick very well. Everything would wash away.
Only two options now. [kill, or let them kill again.] Without a definite answer, we risk hurting someone who's innocent. But without acting, we're putting someone else at risk anyway.
It's a hard call to make because it's not like we can post a sign someone casting suspicions. And I think even Kanda would...probably hesitate before stabbing someone without certainty they're to blame.
We can keep an eye out for now. Maybe see if other people have noticed, too. And try to make sure people aren't alone for too long.
Thank you, Daan. I might mention it to a few others who were looking into it to see if they might have noticed anything unusual or anything to make a more solid connection. [...] I'm sure you're the last person I ever have to say this to, but just be careful in the meantime. Okay?

The problem with that being what we do with this information, of course.

I am a pragmatist, even if I don't like it...

Oh, but I really don't like it. I'm no good at trying to broach this sort of thing.

[ So. Presumably he'll be able to keep an eye on Iwatooshi and if he dies, c'est la vie. ]
So I'll keep an eye out.
