Okay, so. I have a tendency post unsolved murder to have a lot of theories and suspicions and then am almost always wrong. Usually I do not transition any of this IC until I am on more solid ground. But Harrow is a really paranoid character. She literally has post traumatic stress from being targeted for murder all the time and her vibe in this game was always just like. I need to find the murderers and fuck them up before they can fuck me or my friends. She also in canon is like. Always wrong about who the murderers are? Like she spends the first book being convinced its one person for very wrong petty reasons and then swerves off them and suspects like. The nicest boy in the universe instead, and then swerves again, and is just. Wrong, constantly, all the time, because she's driven so much by paranoia and her feelings that everyone is always playing mind games with her and only being nice to her to manipulate her. Meanwhile, she's really bad the other direction of correctly identifying who actually wants to kill her; she lets herself get betrayed by someone pretty spectacularly and never even has an ounce of suspicion of what's obvious to everyone else, because they manipulate her the right way instead of just being nice.
So this is the vibe I wanted to bring to her anti-murder efforts. Week 0, she got really fixated on the Tamaki murder because she'd befriended Molly a little and wanted to bring him the name of a killer. She settled on her theory that whoever framed Beau was at the Envy party, and then there was the whole skull thing, which she initially thought maybe had something to do with Douman because of his skeleton theming. So our early threads post Tamaki murder were like. Very much her trying to feel them out. This is why she started talking about like. Being comfortable with murder and stuff.
This should have all been resolved at HK-47's execution, but before that happened she got back from the CYOA and was really offended by their pushing her, and specifically their fixation on the idea that there was maybe a child with them on the CYOA. This was correct, but it was a detail she was wholly unwilling to talk about because the whole situation with the child was extremely traumatic. And she thought Douman was a murderer and was trying to learn information from her just for vulnerabilities / to use against her, and reacted very badly to it. So by the time she learned they weren't behind Beau's murder, she was deep set in her clown grudgewanking ways and wouldn't let it go. I also vaguely suspected Douman OOC after both the Toblerone murder and the clown shoes (because of the kicking curse), and while I knew that it definitely wasn't true that Douman did all of the murders, it was funny to me to have Harrow think so.
She came really close to putting in a proposal for them the same week they died, because she was sure they'd done something. But when she was redirected off doing that, she instead unwisely confronted them in person about all of it.
Anyway, she was interested in talking to a priest who is into skeletons, so the entire Ashiya Douman vibe was very interesting to her and she and the baby clown could have been friends, probably, if they'd had more time to interact. When I joked about her being disappointed Douman was nice now it was mainly because she was excited to get to grudgewank again against someone who is fun to grudgewank, not because she actually missed the clown. She thought Limbo was very obviously evil and gross and was very pleased every time the real Limbo came out because it vindicated all her grudgewanking feelings.
So as you can see she was kind of right, but for extremely incorrect reasons, and that's very IC of me.
