*Weill Vio IS a hero, it could be he and Shadow ended up in Gotham, or somewhere else under Monokuma bot attack, and while Shadow went to personally confront Junko, Vio dealt with the marauding robots. Their similarities would probably make it clear even through video footage Vio and Shadow are somehow connected*
*Vio's confused about how the oil ended up spilled there, they don't keep any flammable liquids or other types of accelerants anywhere near the stables for safety reasons. Safety of the people in the castle, and the horses in the stables, in fact now that Vio thought about it, he wasn't sure where oil was even kept on the castle grounds. He knew there was some somewhere that they used to make torches but he himself had never fetched any*
*Vio has to wake the others to help spread the alert throughout the castle, especially since he and the other colors live fairly high up in the castle and jumping right out the window would be lethal for any of them aside from Shadow. Eventually some of the knights are able to get the blaze under control, and Vio is just trying to figure out how it happened. How did that fireball just spit out of the torch like that*
"I don't know I guess the site didn't approve of my vocabulary."
". . . this feels very accurate."
*Wow have not logged on Vio in awhile this was 30 days old*
*Vio blinks*
"Well living shadows aren't exactly a common occurrence, statistically speaking the odds of you being Shadow are far greater than the odds of you being a different sort of shade."
*This is so accurate*
*Damn you got thrown under the bus kid*
"You don't usually ask, you usually just flop on top of me. Yeah I'm used to it, want me to read out loud for awhile until you doze off?"
"This is not a topic I will discuss."
