THE SECOND INVESTIGATION

THE SECOND INVESTIGATION

[It's Friday once more. As the third week begins to near it's end, the tensions-and nightmares-among everyone is on the rise. It doesn't help that this is Friday-and Friday is shaping up to be a bad day of the week.

The question is whether this Friday will be any different from the last. Perhaps this Friday will be different. After all, the morning is over, and nothing happened yet!

But then, isn't that strange too? Maybe it would be better to look around. Just in case.]

Comments

[necroyalty]

[If anyone needs Ambrosine, she's studying summoning scrolls in the library.]

[strangerpeople]

[Eeeeeeeh...about that.

When you tried to get in the library, it was locked.]

[necroyalty]

[ ...okay, then.

Is there a visible lock, or is she SOL here on trying to break in? ]

[icanhearscreams]

[ Well the first thing he's gonna do is use the bathroom. Please let there be no bodies in here...]

[strangerpeople]

[Only yours, Jun. Insert your own scatological jokes here, but you're clear to do your business.]

[icanhearscreams]

[ Okay good. Let's head over to the dining room to check the stash. ]

[hexposition]

[Oh, morning's over? I can read.

Emma's heading down to the lowest level, as she's taken to doing since last Sunday. Anything of note on the stairwells between the floor with their rooms and the lowest level?]

[strangerpeople]

[Nothing on the stairwells that is out of place. Just spiders and bats.]

[hexposition]

['Sup, friends?

All right, then Emma's heading into the game room. Anything here?

Any Excalibur? Or just our usual friend Mr. Skeleton?]

[whiterosefoes]

[It's a lovely time to visit the garden!]

[whiterosefoes]

[wait. there's a disturbance in the force. something stupid is happening upstairs. she must go]

[incendiarize]

[But what if the bouncy castle is lonely this morning?

#priorities]

[strangerpeople]

[Super lonely. Have at it!]

[incendiarize]

[Boing!

He won't bounce around too long before he heads for the workshop.]

[yonosoymaria]

[He is totally not checking to make sure nobody broke his table with a corpse. No, Eric's just heading to the parlor because it's right outside the Sanctum, and frankly that Grand Guignol set piece seems far more likely to be... occupied.

But for the time being, here he is, among furniture that was beautiful once. There's not actually a corpse on that table or one of the couches, right?]

[strangerpeople]

[Nope, nothing out of place here!]

[yonosoymaria]

[The furniture is safe. Juste Belmont rests easy this... day.

Well then.

Anything amiss just outside the creepy bloodstained probable-demon-worship chamber? Like... blood trail on the floor, all the masks in a circle with a lone ear in the middle of it, anything like that?]

INVESTIGATION START

[strangerpeople]

[There is a chuckle from the Elder Steward as his voice suddenly booms through the Mansion.]

Splendid, splendid. You didn't even need much help from us with identifying our unfortunate friend! Perfect.

I think you all know what you need to do, yes?

[The ticking is back.]

Let us not waste any more time, hmm?
