My main problem with Ekko's slot is that there have been a few times he's tried to slide in arguments and connections that I don't think are very plausible or well established. Which is usually a sign of him being under an agenda. Idk can see an angle where he isn't town, but don't know how he can be responsible for the message, so if I assume that comes from Mafia, it would have to have been faked. Just doesn't make sense otherwise.
Think Lanji had a bit of an awkward progression and York being stuck on Ekko isn't great too. I suppose I can see one of them as scum, the other probably Shalltear?
