[The day has come.

..Valentine's Day, of course! Or should we now call it...ValITine's Day? Well, it doesn't matter. It's a Friday.

Hopefully, the Strangers got through this week without killing. But perhaps it's best to be sufficiently paranoid and check first, hmm?]

EVIDENCE

[strangerpeople]

[There is an alembic in the laboratory that looks to have a few spots of liquid in it.]

[relieable]

[ale-what now? well, that's fine. even if Osomatsu does not know what that is, he sees the liquid. it's not really out of place in a laboratory, but he's checking anyway.

first of all is the device still on? or still warm? if not, he's going to go ahead and try to remove the top and smell the liquid]

[strangerpeople]

[The device isn't on, but it's still a little warm.]

[relieable]

[HMMMM. might have been used recently, then... but is it still safe to open it up? he's not going to taste the liquid, but he needs to know if it smells like anything]

[strangerpeople]

[It smells like...well, a little wheaty. Otherwise it just smells like...chemicals? Hard to describe.]

[relieable]

[yeah, we're definitely not tasting it.

but he will bring this thing for evidence, if it's small enough to move. anything else weird about the alembic? or the liquid? other than the fact that it is there at all]

[strangerpeople]

[Nothing else!

It looks like Oso's found everything here. Good job!]

[relieable]

[great! fantastic!

one more question, is the device he has old, or modern-looking?]

[strangerpeople]

[It's medieval.]
