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.]

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

[icanhearscreams]

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

[strangerpeople]

[Eeeeeeeh...about that.

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

[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]

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

[strangerpeople]

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

[icanhearscreams]

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

[strangerpeople]

[Everything is still as it is. Lots of nice dishware and...no not-balls-of-possible-peoples-souls food. Or any food.]

[whiterosefoes]

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

[hexposition]

['Sup, friends?

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

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

[icanhearscreams]

[ Oh, good. He'll just check the stash and then head up the stairs towards the third floor. ]

[strangerpeople]

[No Excalibur, but...

Emma will find herself staring at something that doesn't look like it belongs in the game room floor.]

[strangerpeople]

[Go right ahead! Where to next?]

[hexposition]

[Oh boy.

What is it?]

[necroyalty]

[ ...okay, then.

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

[incendiarize]

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

#priorities]

[strangerpeople]

[Answering that question with another one:

how good is Ambrosine's perception today?]

[strangerpeople]

[Super lonely. Have at it!]

[icanhearscreams]

[ He's heading to the library so he will go join that thread. ]

[strangerpeople]

[Clothing.]

[icanhearscreams]

[ Hopefully good, because there's someone else coming up behind her. ]

Something wrong?

[strangerpeople]

[excellent]

[hexposition]

[Well. That's not good.

What kind of clothing are we looking at, here?]

[strangerpeople]

[Well, without going into detail, Emma can immediately tell that these clothes belong to one of the other Strangers. Who is clearly not wearing them right now.

...

Emma should probably go check to see if people are streaking in the Mansion at the very least.]

[incendiarize]

[Boing!

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