you lie on a bed. It’s a fairly large bed, and can comfortably fit two people. You lay with your head on the end opposite to the one with pillows, with your legs resting against the pillows and the bed frame. You can feel your feet touching the wall behind the bed, and the quilt hanging in front of the wall, propped up by the bed’s bannisters. you lie near the edge of the bed, not close enough where you fear you may fall off, and with some space between you and the edge. Sitting on that narrow strip of space is a *cat*
she is a fairly large house cat, and is much heavier than average. Due to the small space she occupies, she leans on top of you slightly, but despite her size you don’t feel uncomfortable from the pressure. She has short fur, soft to the touch. With one hand you constantly strike her fur, doing so repeatedly until it becomes almost automatic, requiring no effort on your part. Each stroke elects a purr, and similar to how one would wind a music box. The noise is pleasant to your ears, and your heart fills with satisfaction knowing this magnificent creature is so pleased by such a simple gesture.
you let your mind drift a bit in this joy. You consider sharing this moment with others in hopes that they will feel as satisfied as you do right now, and feel as much joy as the feline laying with you. You imagine writing a post, putting others in your shoes, all to share this moment with others. In your head, you go over what you might write, and the first line comes to your mind immediately;
A fellow chapter one enjoyer I see?
The reason why we didn't learn the names of the chapter 1 suspects is because we didn't need to. It didn't matter what their names were, only their roles as the priest, the nun with a broken arm, the servant who found the rope ladder in the incinerator and couldn't commit the first murder due to his size, and the regular worshipper with no access to the incinerator but with a lot of knowledge on the Nail Man. Same as the boy that Yuma helps.
In chapter 2, Kurumi knew the suspects personally - they were going to the same academy, and there is really no better way to refer to them other than by their names.
In chapter 3, Yuma is being personally introduced to the Resistance by Shachi, in order to get to know them somewhat and possibly get persuaded to either join or work for them. We need their names for that.
In chapter 4, there is literally One Guy, Dr. Huesca, and there is absolutely no reason not to call him by his name. Fink is also here but who cares about Fink let's be honest.
We didn't need to attach ourselves to the church crew. Yuma and Halara were at the time pretending to be peacekeepers doing an interrogation. It's really not a strange or bad writing choice. It would be way more odd if we got introduced to Father Adeline, Sister Fuyuko, the servant guy Josh Smith we don't really respect him that much tbh, and don't forget our favourite regular Dark Iplier who puts his whole wallet on the tray every sunday so we forgive him for replacing the holy water in the stoup with diesel and tempting small children to chug it for fake pokemon cards
