That observation made me go and have a look at Osseric in isolation. And it's... interesting.
On D2, Osseric low-key calls out Kilava for the Ven vote and low-key supports Gait in looking into the Thyr derailment theory. But when it comes to vote, Osseric will do a complete reversal of this position. They call the Thyr train - that just started gaining momentum as I mentioned in the previous post - too easy to board and instead jump on Ven with the flimsiest reasoning.
Now the only real discussion Osseric engages in is when Shel and me argue hammering Thyr without waiting for them to show up wasn't necessary. Osseric pushes back hard against this.
Against Shel:

Not to mention, Sheltatha really wanted to wait for Thyrllan to come back and defend himself before the hammer. Doesn't look very good in hindsight. Were they planning on making some sort of reveal claim? Hmm.
Its standard practice, Noob.
Not always.
In as many games as have been played, lynching scum early happens less often than not. Our main focus should revolve around every single interaction Thyrllan had, those who did and didn't vote, when, and why.
We,for once, have some good information to go on. You wanting to wait to hear from someone who turned up scum doesn't look good. It's a fact in any setting of any game. We would be stupid not to examine it further.
Thyrllan received some early votes. We usually wait longer in the day to vote, after the most information is gleaned. I think this is something to look at from all angles and tread carefully with the findings.

This is only true
because Thyr flipped scum. Had they flipped town, this kind of hammer would have been branded as way suspicious.
Only scum have the foresight to know how the lynch will turn out in advance.
You're stating the obvious, and missing the point.
Aaaaand that's pretty much it. No more engagement other than 'don't modkill me' or 'catching up' posts from Osseric since then. So I went to look at their votes to see if I can glean some from that... except their isn't any lol.

Prazec Goul is lynched. She was Lady Bliss and RI.
Osseric never bothered to vote except that one time when they turned up at the perfect time to slow down a scum lynch train as it was gaining traction.
