THE SECOND INVESTIGATION
(~SK. 10)

[It is freezing. The temperature? Who knows at this point.

Today is a day for blankets and whatever you can grab to keep yourself warm. It truly seems like there is a winter without end, and that eventually everything will wither and die, including you. So bitter. So harsh. So cruel.

It's not fair. Then again, didn't Zero say life isn't fair? Well, Zero isn't freezing his butt off. Really, it's just too cold on the ship to do much of anything outside of keeping warm. Like, say, murder.

Right? Well. There's only one way to find out. So, what are the Strangers doing as they wake up shivering on this cold, cold day, which may or may not be a Friday according to the calendar?]

[Hermes zooms back to the infirmary and returns with the sheets.]

[Gai, meanwhile, is just going to lean down to take a peek at Aoi's pupils to check for a concussion.]

... it looks like he has a concussion, so we shouldn't be surprised if it takes him a while to wake up. As much as I'd like to say we should put him in bed, we should probably keep him with us so that we can keep an eye on him, not to mention make sure he isn't getting cold.

I don't exactly think he's going to be walking...we should at least move him somewhere he won't get stepped on if someone isn't looking where they're going.

[Hermes instinctively looks at the area on the floor directly to the "top" of Aoi's head. He then shakes his head a little. He misses the timer. It's so much easier with it.]

Blue's fun to be around. How long until you humans die of hypothermia?

[Hermes's tone of voice is more like him asking how much effort it will take to keep him from running out of time rather than waiting for his death. In any case, Hermes is actually ready to assist in moving the not!Corpse.]

We can use body heat if needed. We'll just take turns.

[Gai sees absolutely no problems with this.]

Yeah, and I think getting him on something soft will help, too? Depending on how low the incinerator goes, we might even be able to use it to warm blankets.
