hey hey heyyy
everyone shut up for a minute, i wanna figure out something *actually* useful!!
can everyone else see those mountains waaaaaaay off in the distance? or i guess maybe they're closer for you guys ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
whatever
if you can see them then try facing them and tell me where the sun is in relation to you
it seems like morning right now so we can probably assume that direction is east!
unless we're on some kind of alien planet lol
and i guess this can double as a roll call
jeeeez i have to do everything around here!!

ok mr. scientist
if your science is always honest then do some science for us!
tell us where in the world we are exactly based on the stars or climate or whatever

[ Oh ffs... ]

I'm not a navigator or a walking compass. I can rig something based on position of the stars based on what I know of star alignment in either 2019 or 5749, but I don't have the whole sky map memorised. I know how to calculate longitude and latitude in a general sense, but there's a lot of missing factors.

Has it occurred to you, Mr. Liar, that this isn't the same world we started in? I know what you're gonna say but think about what we already know. Your bs about cryo sleep aside, I spent 3700 years petrified and you definitely didn't. Besides, I knew everyone that was currently unpetrified just before I woke up on the beach here and none of them would have or could have done this. My original theory was that we were somehow taken from different points in TIME but my other theory is that we were taken from different worlds entirely. Multiverse theory isn't something anyone managed to prove before the petrification at home, but at this point I'm not writing it off as impossible.

Therefore, taking what I already know to be absolute fact, I have to surmise what's left. The only way to know if I'm wrong or not is to gather other evidence.

So if this is another world, who says the stars are even the same? Maybe we can't calculate a precise location, or even if we did, something would be off. Some crucial event in history could be different in another world so whatever we expect to find or to know will be changed as well.

[ He really does not expect Kokichi to have read even half of that; he knows how people get when he starts going. TOO BAD, that has never stopped him in his life, and thinking out loud can be useful. ]

zzzzzzzzzz

[He did actually read it all. But his Bad Guy persona demands that he pretend otherwise.]
