"I see", Steven simply said in response to Isaac, not really knowing what to say other than that. Not to mention that Tanami went on a tangent before he could say much more anyway. Most of it went right past Steven, but there was one thing that did got his attention. "Uhm.... Tanami? ...Was that Sodika's voice?", Steven asked, seriously confused. He had gotten used to the puppeteer arguing with himself and swearing at everyone by now, which was why he hadn't paid too much attention to him, but imitating Sodika? That was new. Also, seriously worrisome. It seemed that Tanami was starting to lose it, and fast at that.
Some time later, Norio entered the auditorium too, followed soon after by Erin completing the group. "No, no motive was given yet. In fact, Monokuma hasn't given us any sign of life yet", Steven answered Norio's question. "Not that I'm complaining, mind you." He then fell quiet for a moment. Now here was a problem. On one hand, he wanted to share his information with everyone as soon as possible, to try to forge a bond of some kind as fast as possible. On the other hand, much of it still depended on getting Isaac to confess he was indeed the Ultimate Assassin, which wasn't going to be easy in the slightest. Maybe he should try speaking with Isaac in private first? But... what if something happened in the meantime, either to or because of Isaac? Or himself, for that matter. Isaac and Tanami had already been wondering who the next killer or victim would be. If something like that happened, then his entire plan would be cut short. ...No, he had to do it now.
"So... I've spent last night in the back room of the library, trying to see if there was anything interesting in there," Steven started. "Most of it were just historic files, politics and whatnot; trustworthy enough, from what I could tell, but not really interesting. More importantly is this", he continued, taking out Sven's files, the files that came along with the photo he and Isaac had found in the back room, and finally the file that talked about the Ultimates of Hope's Peak fighting against the Ultimate Despairs. "We've all seen Sven's files already; the ones that mention all of our ultimate abilities, background information and such. For example, turns out that Sodika has a mental illness, something like schizophrenia. Perfectly treatable with medicine, but seeing as there's nothing here... Yeah, we all know how that turned out. Anyway, it could be completely faked to confuse us, but remember that it was found in a room we're not supposed to even have access to, and by complete accident at that. So, why bother then? If you make things like this in order to mess with people, wouldn't it make more sense to place it in a location where they have a reasonable chance to find it?"
After stifling a yawn, he continued. "Then there's this photo of all of us at the front of a classroom, but it obviously hasn't been taken here. Which raises the question; where was it taken and, more importantly, when? Unless it is faked, which is still an option, this can only mean that we were together before all of this happened. It came together with a file about 'The Original Despairs'. Whoever they might be, they apparently did some horrible things right here on Hope's Peak. The problem with all of that is that I have no memories of any such thing. I don't know about you guys though. And yet, it's all way too detailed to be completely made up, especially seeing how it was in one room with a ton of other files which all seemed perfectly legitimate from what I could tell."
"Finally, there's this new file I found", he said, tapping the new file. "It speaks of the 'Ultimates of Hope's Peak fighting against the Ultimate Despairs'. It's not an event I remember, but," he said as he opened the file, showing how it was obviously tempered with, "this is just suspiscious. It's almost completely destroyed. All that's left is that bit of introduction, and a poem-like footnote. I have no idea what it's about, but... Anyway, my point is, is it reasonable to think that every single bit of this was faked? Especially considering how there might be even more where this came from? ...What if we have a joined past, and we just don't know about it anymore? If even one of these files is true, then something is seriously wrong with our memories. And quite frankly, at this point I wouldn't even be surprised anymore if that bear-freak has the ability to mess with our brain like that."
