[She watches some episodes with Izunia because it's easier if you're not alone. She's never been alone before right now, even before the rest of the class came in there was Monomi, and solidarity just helps in a murdergame situation. And while Izunia takes care of the human (....lucian?….) concern of memorials, she's been tapping away on a laptop. Guess what she's working on?
Well, looking up information on IG7 mostly, but her research is compiled in gamerchiaki’s Airlocked! GameFAQ. It's not actually up in a public server but it's written in a style similar to those old school walkthroughs, logging in recent conspiracy theories on filming locations and projected endgames.]
I don't know about real ghosts, but if it's a simulation… it's possible the system will respond to them.
[It is much easier if you're not alone, and he's happy to leave much of that end of the legwork to her, though he of course has his preferred places to catch conspiracies and theories.
More relevant has been his quest to find a ship that will cram everyone inside for any length of time. Not exactly easy to get one of those under the table.]
Season two wound up being a simulation, wasn't it? Xander and Jane's.
[He settles back into his seat at the couch, taking up the pear soda he left behind to deal with the candles.]
They haven't used one since then... But it would explain all those objects that keep appearing from nowhere. And how that woman vanished.
The one who messed with Church in the bar. Xander's apparent superior. It'd be very easy to explain how she simply vanished if she just... unplugged from the simulation.
[It's a concept that makes the next stage of the seance, past the frantically gathering everyone together, easier to bear. The weight of his failure lightens, just a hair -
But he still flinches, just a little, at Yuuri's name, as he's done on occasion for some weeks now.]
[She seems to be zoning out… before suddenly, she lets out a huuuuuge yawn. Like refreshing a browser window, that seems to have livened her up. Then she gets to typing on her laptop again. Gonna check that gameFAQ for info!]
I'll look around. But at least... if the others are in a visual reality system, we can do something.
That'd make her the first Overseer from a previous season to appear, then. Queenie implied that Kip is already dead, which just leaves... Jamie, Cece Diver, and the AI Overseers, doesn't it?
[And Jamie is a Champion, too, making him fair game for tomorrow's motive.]
Might indicate that something about her mouth isn't actually human-shaped. I don't know, I don't know enough about the mechanisms of hardlight to tell; I've never used one.

[let it be known that today is the day Chiaki unintentionally predicted major Airlocked plot twists???]
Which woman?

[She watches the seance get underway. Eventually, this happens.]
‘No’…. so it's not a simulation…?
no subject
[He fingers his scarf, but is quiet for a moment.]
The woman seems vaguely familiar to me, too. Not from Ardyn's season, I've watched that in every detail, but perhaps one of the others...?

[Chiaki has indeed found information- on her laptop which she shows to Izunia are screenshots of a certain shark lady, mostly from R4 footage.]

[A former Overseer... Hmm. Don't like that.]

They're killing off all their loose ends.

[boy does she sound unhappy about that!!]
...she's affiliated with the network. I think. She gave a press conference for them about this... ‘season’. I can look it up.
no subject
[He'll wait for her to look up the press conference.]

But not an Overseer this time. More likely, a step above - the one managing Xander.
