THE FIRST INVESTIGATION

THE FIRST INVESTIGATION

[As Friday morning dawns, everything is quiet. Serene, even. It's been almost two weeks since the beginning of their stay here, and the time to fulfill the Commander's ultimatum offer is almost up. It seems that no one's taken her up on the offer, so far.

Maybe the lack of murder will continue, as everyone starts to go about their day....but there's only one way to find out.

Let's go about our normal routine, shall we?]

Comments

[earietale]

[This past two weeks have been...interesting, and that motive realised this week was enough to shake Barbara, but she won’t let that keep her down! So today, in the pink and blue dress with heels C gave her, she's checking out the computer room.]

[strangerpeople]

[Computer room is good to go. Type away!]

[beguiledcard]

[ Normal routine...? Yeah, fuck you, he knows what comes after a motive!!

... But, anyway, he's gonna head down to the general Mess Hall, first. ]

[strangerpeople]

[Enjoy your lunch, Akira! It’s all clear here.]

Mess Hall/Kitchen

[vividsins]

[ Baku's going to go through the Mess Hall and look for food in the Kitchen. ]

[strangerpeople]

[Feel free to join Akira there in have a non-nursery lunch! Om om.]

[losergod]

[ It's noon, and C is going to go check on the incinerator after the other day to make sure the evil is defeated and fully burned. Anything in there? ]

[strangerpeople]

[OH MY GOD EVERYTHING IS ON FIRE




Is what we would say if anything was amiss but its all clear!]

[theserpentsmiles]

[They can make all the friendship speeches they want, but killing is killing and rot is rot. Nagisa knows this, and the ultimatum is something he might've been tempted to kill for. She deserved yo live.

This morning, we are checking out the theater. Maybe we can watch a bad movie and not think about it for a while.]

[strangerpeople]

[Yeah, theater sounds good. And hey, maybe you can watch that Mariah Carey movie everyone hates, what with all the glitter that seems to be in the hall around the theater doorway.]

[crouching_sin]

[Naoya is looking decently perky, thanks to Akira’s coffee. He swings by the Mess Hall to get something to eat before heading to the Library to see if he can find any amusing books to read.]

[strangerpeople]

[Hey, Mess Hall Party with Akira and Baku, woo!]

[backuphero]

[Akira had laid it all out for them in that first meeting. First the motive, and then... someone would die.

He doesn't want to think about that, or how late in the week it is now. He hasn't looked around the library much since that first visit he paid it... there are novels mixed in with everything else, he knows that much. Maybe he'll find something distracting there... just hopefully not a detective story where the bodies piled up.]

[mementodagger]

[Yurick is in the library as he always is, curled up in a corner with his legs drawn up and a book resting on his thighs. He's eating some plain bread, which is probably going to annoy anyone who's a library purist, but he's not scattering crumbs.

He glances up at Jonathan when the blond enters the room, but goes back to reading without further acknowledgement.]

[toushiro]

[ hitsugaya's going to check out the weapon storage to see if anything's been taken, maybe try to trade out his sword for something a little smaller. ]

[strangerpeople]

[The room does look a bit off but you may wanna leave it until later...]

[fashionfever]

[Angela is wearing that green dress and sipping a coffee as she wanders into the dark theater. Why not let Friday be a matinee day!]

[strangerpeople]

[About that...]

[fashionfever]

[Okay well you know what Angela drank her coffee and now she is just going to visit the female bathroom because what the hell can actually happen. Surely Nagisa can take care of himself. It's a nice place to throw away her coffee cup too. A normal adventure.]

[strangerpeople]

[Don't say things you can't take back, lady.

Like the powerful smell of something really bad in here. Wanna look further?]

[tiefleaf]

[Molly wakes up entirely too late for this shit, and, seeing everyone searching around, grumbles something like "for fucks sake" before realizing his morning piss is probably out of the question.

Ugh. Fine. We'll handle whatever this is.

Has anyone gone near the furnace?]

[strangerpeople]

[Well...]

INVESTIGATION START

[strangerpeople]

[Ping. Ping. Ping.

Something is approaching the bathroom. And it's not the Commander.

It chirps in a cute, stilted, girl-like warble as it holds up a tray of cameras.]

WOMEN'S BATHROOM

[strangerpeople]

After all the body-touching

[losergod]

[ C will be in the Mess area trying to make coffee or some hot beverage or another for anyone that wants it after all that mess. Unless you want soda. Then you can have that. He looks very tired and rather put-upon.

If you're done with your investigating, come here and Talk and relax, maybe. ]

[beguiledcard]

[ Talking isn't what he's jumping to.

Really, he's just... going to sit down at the table and stare down at his hands. There's definitely a haunted look in his eyes from the hell that was today. ]

INVESTIGATION END

[strangerpeople]

[After all of the evidence has been gathered, the little detective bot pings back around.]

CONGratULAtIons!! YoU havE finishEd...the investigation

[It slowly and mechanically takes out a party popper and...well, pops it open, letting blue and black confetti fly.]

YaY~

PleASe wait FOr fuRtHer inSTRUCtionS!

[And with that, it pings off. Something tells you, however, that you won't be waiting too long for whatever is next...]
