...Could the gonne-shot wound have come earlier, then? Before May entered the scene? The alteration was only thought of after the second altercation.
A gonne is extremely loud, though, by all accounts. Why didn't anyone hear anything?

I'm sure she shall be receptive.

...I guess the next step is to find out what blinded him to begin with. Only then can we be sure just how bad his vision was if he mistook May for someone else. In advance, however, I would like to make clear that I will not blind myself to test the degree of the effects.
[Because ha ha ha she's not getting her eyes bloodshot.]

Look! You may not have been that viable a suspect before, but that doesn't mean anything right now. You had a gun that you supposedly discarded of and nobody knows where it is! But you don't even want to explain why you thought to rid of it in the first place. You're making yourself look suspicious!
I presume nothing about you. It saves on the headaches later on.
I don't know anything about guns, but I wondered the same thing. It was early on in the day, someone would have heard it. It had to have been after May was unconscious, at least. Unless she heard a shot ring out and rushed to where she heard it and isn't telling us, it wouldn't have made any sense to shoot Beat first.
It's a big risk to shoot a gun in the middle of the day. They use silencers in movies to make them quieter, but I don't know if it works the same in real life. [ She shrugs. ] I've never used a gun before so I can't really say.

[As Annie is helping May, Alice will come to her after talking with Susan. Joy.]
Annie, I know you hid something from me when I took your possessions away after you killed Minatsuki. Your "prize" that is. What is it and where is it?
[ooc: hope you don't mind - didn't see the need to make this top level]

[May shakes her head.]
Even with his powers, I do not believe he could have fought the way he did with his vision impaired. And...when he first attacked me, I also thought that perhaps he had mistaken me for someone else, so I shouted my name at him to try to get him to calm down.
It didn't faze him at all. He really did want to kill me, knowing exactly who I was.

[After listening to all of this, Susan mulls it all over silently for a few minutes before she walks to May's side.]
I think, perhaps, somebody has a different opinion.
Where did you find your kunai, May? In the chest wound or the shoulder wound?

It is obvious. The others have understood my meaning. She has had my meaning explained to her already. I...I do not have any need to clarify myself to her.

Uh...are you guys really buying that his bird flew the gun into a tree?
Look, even if his bird was actually strong enough to do that and he was dumb enough to not dispose of it himself in front of an audience, why is he being such a dick about it? Let's say his story is somehow true - it means that someone got a hold of his revolver and used it during the murder.
Knowing how close he is to May, don't you think he'd be frantic to find whoever took it instead of just saying she must be the killer?

It's still inconsistent.
Take a look at this picture, May. Is the blood consistent with the area where you fought? The pool of blood described - your injury isn't severe enough to produce a 'pool'. Only Beat's were, and his body was found directly in front of the altar. A pew was also moved to cover the bullet, and the blood was cleaned.
Somebody else was in the chapel while you were unconscious and rearranged the scene to make it appear more likely that you had caused the death. That much is clear.

Yes you do! You do because nothing you are saying is lining up! First the gun was destroyed by you, then you claim you had the bird simply dispose of it! And now this! Which is it?!
Stiles, I quit trying to make sense of anything Gundam says long ago. That's why I keep asking him to just explain things! [yelling in Gundam's general direction, before turning back to Stiles] in an understandable way.
Frankly, I don't buy that he just so happened to dispose of the gun without knowing for sure it was destroyed. It seems like a highly illogical, even for him.

I think, perhaps, we can all agree to that.
In the absence of actual injury to his eyes, it seems most probable it was a poison of some sort.
[again]
We all recall Minatsuki's case, I'm sure. The poison drove her own abilities into a berserk frenzy before she expired. This seems similar in some ways.

You think Sanrai could not carry it? You fool, the amounts she can carry are beyond your comprehension! You dare insult her strength?
...If May had heard a gonne-shot, there isn't any reason she wouldn't tell us. But if it happened afterwards...
[She frowns.]
Then Beat wasn't stunned by the kunai to the shoulder. He continued fighting with the third person and they had no recourse but to shoot him, lacking the ability to overcome him.

This is a guy who fooled everyone into thinking no one had found the gun and carved a panel into his wardrobe to hide it. You might think he's illogical, but he's actually pretty damn smart - smart enough to be able to get rid of a gun if he really wanted to. His behavior doesn't add up.
