Example of an Interaction:
Location: Chemistry Lab
Ruby hummed softly to herself as she meticulously mixed various chemicals, her mind partially focused on the experiment and partially on Kazuichi. She had noticed him spending more time around Sonia lately, and the thought made her grip the beaker a bit too tightly.
The door creaked open, and Ruby's expression brightened instantly as Kazuichi walked in. "Hey, Ruby! I was wondering if you had any spare parts for a project I'm working on."
Ruby's eyes sparkled with a mix of affection and intensity. "Of course, Kazuichi! I always have what you need." She quickly retrieved a box of parts, her fingers brushing against his as she handed it over.
"Thanks, you're a lifesaver," Kazuichi said with a grin. "You know, Sonia was just telling me about this amazing project she's working on—"
Ruby's smile faltered for a split second before she regained her composure. "Oh, Sonia, right. She's always so impressive." Her voice was sweet, but there was an underlying edge to it.
Kazuichi didn't seem to notice. "Yeah, she's really something. Anyway, gotta get back to work. Thanks again, Ruby!"
As he left, Ruby's pleasant demeanour shifted. She stared at the door with a cold, calculating look. "Sonia... always in the way," she muttered. Her grip tightened on a vial of chemicals. "But I won't let her take him from me."
Role in the Plot:
Potential Killer: Ruby's obsessive love for Kazuichi and her jealousy towards Sonia make her a prime candidate for a killer. Her deep knowledge of chemistry would allow her to commit a murder in a way that is both sophisticated and difficult to trace.
Complex Character: Ruby's dual nature—charming and intelligent on the surface, yet obsessive and dangerous underneath—adds depth to her character. Her actions are driven by a twisted sense of love and protection, making her both sympathetic and terrifying.
Execution: If Ruby is revealed as a killer, her execution would be a dramatic culmination of her character arc. It could involve a chemically-induced scenario, reflecting her Ultimate talent and the consequences of her obsession.
Investigation Role: Even if not a killer, Ruby's keen intellect makes her a valuable asset in investigations. However, her manipulative nature means her motives and information should always be questioned, adding layers of intrigue to the plot.
