A special thank you to @bbcphile who cheered me on while I was putting these together, and for alerting me to the existence of the deleted scene.

"Who did this to you?"

WAIT. I THINK I MIGHTVE SCREWED THIS UP. I THINK OTHER PEOPLE ALSO DIDNT SPEAK IN THE CLOSING ARGUMENT SAYS SOMEONE

well, apparently it's a day for misreading things and making hasty assumptions, because I misread "closing argument" as "scrum debate," assumed you were talking about DRDT, and wrote a whole lot of analysis about the makeup of scrum debates and how placement might affect the DRDT's Ch2 killer. expect that in a separate post in, like... half an hour or something? gotdamb i am a fool.

but, yes, Eden's Garden, the closing argument, and mastermind theories! i'm going back to the official prologue walkthrough video (part 2) to see who talked and in what order, writing it down here. the people who participate are:

Damon -> Ingrid -> Jean -> Diana -> Grace -> Desmond -> Cassidy -> Ulysses -> Eloise -> Jett -> Wolfgang -> Eva -> Damon

since there are 12 unique individuals who speak, and there are a full 16 participants, that means 4 people don't speak: Kai, Mark, Toshiko, and Wenona.

well, that makes them all a little suspicious. but, it's true, having Mark be one of four people who don't contribute does draw less suspicion to him specifically, and thus, makes it less likely that that was meant to be a clue that Mark was the mastermind. i wonder what all of the characters' reasons were for not wanting to speak up...

for Mark, i'd assume it's because he's shy, and for Wenona, I would assume it's because she's not a team player. Toshiko and Kai are weird to me, though. sure, you could say that Toshiko was insecure about being younger and therefore potentially less informed about what happened than her older peers, but that take is the opposite of what i remember of Toshiko's personality thus far. Kai, as i previously argued, loves to talk, so his disinvolvement is weird. but, maybe he just figured that this specific part wasn't worth his time. he's here to slay (in the good way), not talk about who else slayed in the past.

what i will say is that all four of these characters not talking in this Closing Argument boosts their odds that they will be neither the Chapter 1 victim nor killer, in my opinion. given the inclusion of this prologue Trial in the first place, it really seems like the P:EG crew wanted everyone to be able to participate in the Class Trial. obviously, they were missing some things (like Scrum Debates...), but at least everyone gets a line in a Nonstop Debate, you feel? with this Closing Argument format, i would think that it would be really easy to give each character at least one line in a Closing Argument, as long as you give the victim (and probably killer, because most killers likely wouldn't want to help Damon and co solve the murder they tried to create) a line in this one.

i'd still probably leave Mark in the spot where i just put him, though. if not, Eva and Wolfgang are kind of a block in my mind, so i'd probably move him below those two, but still above Kai. your point about his absence still stands, and could still make him suspicious.

thanks for the ask! :D

🎵On the 24th day of Christmas, Ant-Mun gave to me actually all of us, me included this time:

So Ant-Mun took the 'Twas the Night Before Christmas poem and rewrote it to feature me and a special guest! It's pretty neat but kinda long, so check it out under the keep reading line!

Here's some mood music to read by if you want!

Ant-Man's Christmas Guest

 'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through my house

Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.

Cassie hung our stockings on the mantle with care,

In hopes that good ol’ St. Nick would soon be there.

I had just returned from a Christmas Eve tussle

And stopped some bad guys in their bah-humbug bustle.

Cassie was already snug like a bug in bed,

And I really doubt she watched dancing plums in her head.

Probably dreamed of saving the world like her old man;

I just dream time would let her stay young as long as it can.

I collapsed in my bed, not even bothering to shed my suit;

Just let me get some sleep and dream of sugared fruit.

When out in my living room there arose such a clatter,

I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter.

I ran to the hallway then I halted my dash

And was surprised to catch a glimpse of a green flash.

I must be dreaming! What did I just see?

I could have sworn I just saw something...furry.

The twinkling lights from my Christmas tree

Were the only lights to help me see,

But I knew something was definitely amiss

When I heard a snickering croak and a hiss.

Then I saw him peek out and I had to flinch!

Holy fricking crap! My intruder’s the Grinch!

I can’t believe my own eyes as he struts and laughs

And shows me he has one of Cassie’s old crafts.

Hey! That green Christmas thief has Cassie’s ornament!

And he says, “My my my, how this is unfortunate.

The pride of Ant-Man’s tree now in my grasp!”

Why that little sneak, I couldn’t help but gasp.

“You’re actually trying to steal from me?

And take my favorite ornament off my tree?”

“Why not,” the Grinch replied, “I like to cause a mess

For people like you who are big on Christmas.”

“What happened to your heart growing 3 times bigger?”

He shrugged, “Old habits die hard, and this kind of thing gives me some vigor.”

Then he took off so lively and quick,

I knew in a moment I had to catch that Grinchy trick!

More rapid than eagles we were in our game of tag

But it finally looked like I had this win in the bag!

I said, “You’re a mean one, Mr. Grinch,

But catching you was actually a cinch.”

The Grinch harrumphed but offered no other chatter.

“Now, c’mon, give back my stuff and tell me what’s the matter.

Why did you really come to steal from my tree?”

The Grinch grumbled then sighed. “I want one of these things for me.”

I tilt my head; I’m definitely confused.

Why would he need my ornament; what’s the use?

“I’m sorry I don’t understand. You better explain.”

“Your ornament is special, lots of happiness it contains,

But you see, I have nothing like that of the sort.

No sweet memories or cheer, save for the Whos' newfound support 

I want a trinket like yours, something given to me,

Straight from the heart just to make me happy.”

Well no wonder the poor ol’ Grinch was fighting such gloom

All he wanted was something special, a tiny heirloom,

A sweet homemade thing to warm up his old heart

Like how the ornament Cassie’s love on me will always impart.

“Aw Mr. Grinch, stealing my ornament won’t get you what you’re looking for

Nor can you get it online or from any store.

Just like Christmas, what you’re wanting comes from within 

And given with lots of love that’ll make you forever grin. 

I know why you want it, Mr. Grinch, and I can’t blame you.

Give it some time and I’ll bet ya Cindy Lou Who will come through. 

She’s your big buddy now, right?

Just watch and see, I’ll bet she’ll give you

something that’ll excite.”

The Grinch asked me, “How is it you sound so sure?”

“Because just like Christmas, my kid and your little friend are rather pure,

And they show their love to friends and family 

In those simple, sweet ways and do so happily. 

Trust me, Mr. Grinch, Christmas came through for you,

And Cindy Lou Who will for you too!”

The Grinch said sorry for taking my ornament 

And thanked me for my lack of judgment 

Regarding his Christmas mischief 

And promised that never again he’d play the thief.

We said our goodbyes as we shook hands.

“Merry Christmas, Mr. Grinch”, “Merry Christmas, Ant-Man”.

As I watched him go, I thought of all my loved ones:

Friends and family, online buddies and Anons

I’d give them all a hug if I could and hold them tight

And say “Merry Christmas to all of you! And to all a good night!”

Awww Pac’s offering to walk Sunny back to Tubbo but she wants to be independent so he’s just watching them from afar and asking if they’re sure. 

I read this as Sunny being angry and sad after one too many bad things today more than wanting to be independent. Pac was sweet but it definitely seems like she’s taking after her Pa with how she’s handling possible conflict 🙁

Ramon told them to ‘i feel like u should go to ur dad’, which he probably didn’t mean anything by but she definitely took it as her brother wanting her to leave. Before that there was suspicion thrown around about their bodyguard, driver, accountant, and friend as possible thieves. They overheard Fit questioning why Foolish would want to team up with their Pa. They watched their Pa moping around and feeling useless all day. She had a lot of lowercase signs and angry reactions. She didn’t wait for her Pa before going to bed.

A lot of small things but today was definitely not a good day for Sunny. At least It seemed like she was getting along with Tallulah, and Ramon did give her an invite to the birthday party.

twas a liveblog so I wasn’t thinking hard on it, but I think her rejecting Pac who is their driver, that in her own play pretend world his job would be to walk them back to Pa, from taking her back had more to do with Ramon’s sign. Ramon intended, I saw you waiting earlier and I know you want to go to him you don’t have to stay here and it was most likely read as leave me to my family time and go to yours.

As a callback to Ramon’s letter, he talked a lot about how Pac being his Pai is really important to him, how he needs Pac to fell like a full family. You can tell they really took that letter to heart since it queued Sunny’s later obsession with the idea of having two parents, a happy family like Ramon’s with her Ma and Pa. Sunny has been recognizing the difference between Ramon’s inner family Fit and Pac, versus his outer family Sunny, Empanada, Tubbo, Dapper, and Leo.

If Sunny were to go with Pac or Fit back to Tubbo that would ruin the point, because Ramon wanted to be with his family and they can’t ruin that so Sunny couldn’t go with Pac.

I don’t think Sunny doubts Ramon loves her, but I do think their drawing a greater line between her family and Ramon’s family, which before as could been seen by their reaction to Fit saying they aren’t family Sunny thought were the same. Sunny’s very young and developing pretty much everyday is going to effect her, so good things like Tallulah might like me and Ramon invited me to Fit’s birthday party is going to get balanced by things that may seem small but are big to her with Pa keeps leaving me behind and Ramon doesn’t want me intruding with his family.

'Twas the night before First day, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even the hound; The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that the Dreadwolf soon would be there;

The uncles were nestled all snug in their bed, While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads; And mamae in her 'kerchief, and papa in his cap, Had just settled down for a long winter's nap.

When into the bathroom there arose such a clatter, I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter. All through the corridor I flew like a flash, Tore open the door and threw up the sash.

The silvery surface of the mirror up there Shone really bright, green light filling the air, When, what to my wondering eyes did appear, But an elegant elf, his shock crystal clear,

He jumped out of the mirror, so graceful and quick, I knew in a moment it must be Solas Nick. He trampled the toothbrushes and bumped his bald head, And he grumbled, and asked me why I was out of bed.

He was dressed in bright yellow, and bare were his toes, Like mamae he seemed to be hating his shoes, No bundle of toys he had flung on his back, But told me that freedom he brought in his sack.

My eyes did not twinkle, but much did I pout: No freedom I asked, but a plushie mabari hound! He tried to convince me that freedom was better, But I would not stir, the request was clear in my letter;

He frowned very much, tried to turn me around, He insisted some more, but I stood my own ground; Dreadwolf or not, mama’s stories were clear: He was mama’s hahren, I had nothing to fear.

His sigh was so deep, of that jolly old elf, And I laughed when I heard it, in spite of myself; A wink of his eye and a shake of his head, Soon gave me to know indeed there was nothing to dread;

He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work, As he joined of last-minute buyers the cirque, He queued the whole day, for First Day was nigh, Uncle as well swore he saw him with his eyes.

While out of the bathroom I ran like a hare, And woke up my parents, to tell them the tale; Papa was grumbling, he said it couldn’t be, But mamae knew better, and invited him for tea.

I waited and waited, the day felt like a climb, But back to the bathroom he returned past bedtime; He gave me my plushie, I squealed in delight: He said name was Freedom, and to hold on him tight.

I hugged and I thanked him, and to mamae I ran, While back in the mirror climbed back the weird man; But I heard him exclaim, ‘ere he slipped out of sight, Happy First Day to all, and to all a good night!

(This was born after a delicious exchange of comments with Alatariel on Instagram - who knits wonderful amigurumi, check her out, she has a Anders with Justice which is *chef's kiss* on the "Solas as a Christmas elf". And so here it was, way post Trespasser, after a certain baby was told that sure, the Dreadwolf bring gifts to good children, when you saw him tell him mama says to fucking stop for dinner that she needs a hand, or else. Baby's named Niamh, ramen hair are not getting cut until she will ask for it, she's five and was VERY specific in her letter. Also asked Dorian -South for First Day holidays- to write the letter for her, you see...)
