POST GAME HEADCANONS FOR "PROCESS OF ELIMINATION" *WILL CONTAIN SPOILERS*
Just some headcanons I came up with. Not many rn but I like doin this so I'll likely come up with more later!

1. Biggest headcanon hill I will die on is Doleful(AKA the Quartering Duke) being basically put into a forced redemption type thing where, in the wake of their Detective Elimination Project, the group decides that he would be super useful in achieving that goal so they give him two options: Go to jail for the rest of your life, or stay and take your mantle back as a detective and put your ability back to use.(ya know, like Renegade lol)
Ultimately because he disliked the idea of being locked in a cell again he chose to help, very reluctantly.
2. Dolefuls identity as the QD was kept a secret, only so they could continue to use him without public worry or suspicion. The public was just told he was caught.
3. Ya boi Dole got a tracker collar on him. Unable to be taken off unless Wato prohibits with with a command only he knows and committed to memory so it didn't have to be written down. If the collar is tempered with in anyway sleep gas is administered, knocking Doleful out and Wato is notified. (Since he cannot be killed I figured this method would work best to keep him under control)
Collar is also a shock collar to keep Doleful under control ahshsj. Non fatal shock but enough to get the message across (not like he would die from it anyway lmao)
4. Along with Ideal coming back like she did at the end of the game. Wato now also sees the other deceased detectives as residuals. They cause many of headaches for him lmao (I just like this idea and also I don't wanna say good bye to them sue me)
5. As of right now the true story to the QD cases hasn't been revealed as they are still trying to figure out how to handle it properly. Incompetent does still plan on telling the truth,but there's a few hurdles he has to get through till he can do that (I.E the DA itself stopping him lmao)
6. Doleful definitely doesn't make working with him again easy post game. His true personality and nature sticking around makes it very hard for the others to tolerate his presence, Wato is the only one who has quick comebacks to handle him, as well as understand the hidden words behind what he says, making him basically Dolefuls translator aksjsjz
That's all I got for now. I love this game and am attached so expect more stuff in the future for this game!
