Day 13: Investigation

[pandatreasure]

[Morning comes, and with it, a distinct sense of unease. The raccoons spared no feelings in their offers yesterday, and even tried to ensure a murderer could get away with it... Only if everything goes according to the raccoons' plans, though, and that hasn't really been the case so far, has it? Haven't you been doing so well these not-quite-two weeks?

In some cultures, thirteen is considered an unlucky number, you know.]

We should all meet in the cafeteria and go over what we've all found.
Akira and I are already there.

SHRINE

[pandatreasure]

[you heard the man.

offerings for the shrine do not count unless they're placed under this toplevel!]

[cluelesscavewoman]

[They only got to hang out and drink once, but it was nice having a drinking buddy. And once the arguments die down a bit Futayo wanders out to the cellar and grabs a fresh bottle. She doesn't drink it for once. It's of debatable quality, because, honestly as long as it tastes nice and makes her sleepy she doesn't really care.

The shrine gets a good look around and she makes sure no ones here. Because while she isn't smart, she isn't that dumb. And...No ones here, good.

She goes back to the door, tosses the bottle. Then sprints the fuck back out, slamming the door shut as she goes.

She's also sprinting down the hall. Enjoy?]

INVESTIGATION: SCIENCE LAB

[pandatreasure]

[This whole hallway reeks of something chemical... You won't be able to go through here without covering your face if you intend to be any longer than necessary to just pass through.]

[insurgeont]

[ Where the quiznak did Ichigo and Akira go goddammit Ulaz can't promise there won't be additional corpses when he finds them!!! You'd think he'd find them in the greenhouse before he ends up way up here but, look, I go where I'm needed.

Anyway, fortunately for him, today's Christmas monstrosity is turtlenecked, so there's something for him to cover his face with built right in. (Unfortunately, the Galra nose is more sensitive than human ones so it doesn't help as much as he'd like.)

SO WHAT'S GOING ON IN HERE? ]

INVESTIGATION: AQUARIUM TUNNEL

[pandatreasure]

[How about instead of dealing with murder we just look at fishies and be happy.]

[chosemyfate]

[Totally doing that! ....except just also poking around for any leads while he stared at these fish he has never seen! Why not both?]

INVESTIGATION: LIBRARY

[pandatreasure]

[The real first victim.

Content warning: This location is going to contain suicidal imagery. Please be aware before going into the investigation!]

[flamingprick]

[Well since Niles liked that book, let's get him some more trash to read!

And hopefully not get a body, nope.]

INVESTIGATION: INDOOR PLAYGROUND

[pandatreasure]

[You've all been working so hard! You've earned an extra hour in the ball pit, or wherever it is you're going to be wandering.]

[very_good_end]

[Erika gets out of her room and decides to investigate the indoor playground for anything new.]

INVESTIGATION: MAINTENANCE ROOM

[pandatreasure]

[This place has a medical, sort of wintergreen scent to it...]

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[morning, whatever, let's give it a go. kaiba has actually spent more than a little time down here looking for parts and this is the first time it has had a scent that could be potentially described as "pleasant"; he will follow his nose like toucan sam towards whatever new is in here (that hopefully was not previously attached to sigma)]

INVESTIGATION: GREENHOUSE

[pandatreasure]

[This place shares that medical wintergreen smell... It's really strong.]

[suppressthedark]

[Okay - Ichigo's been resting long enough, and now is as good a time as any to go out and finally get some talking in - even though it's only been three days, and he really should be resting. Even more worrying is that he's on his feet, without the aid of a crutch - but then, he's used to pain and being wounded, and stayed on his feet through worse injuries than this. A small walk to the greenhouse while supporting himself against the wall is nothing, and he can rest when he gets there -

...The hell is that smell, though. And the Raccoons didn't say anything...

Time to step in there and see what's going on.]

TSUMUGI'S ROOM

[respendent]

[ After some small discussion with Rin, Rin has gone off to take care of the body, and Hiyori is entering Tsumugi's room to search it.

Without anyone around to be animated for, Hiyori looks pretty dead inside, but he's doing this anyway. ]

[fineprinted]

[ tsumugi's room is rather messy which is so unlike him at all — unmade bed, unfinished handicraft projects strewn about, open erotica books on the floor. other than that, nothing substantial.

the closet door is open though. just a crack. ]

TIME TO REVEAL YOUR KNOWLEDGE. OF CORPSES

[suppressthedark]

[As he promised over Recyclr, Ichigo is sitting in the cafeteria - notebook and pencil in hand, looking pensive.

Why does he have the sinking feeling he's not going to like what people tell him today?

Beyond yelling at him to go back to the infirmary to rest, of course.]

((OOC: Use this thread as a reaction catch all re: them corpses! Top level within it and go nuts, this is just so we're all contained.))

let's just mark this thread as CW: suicide

[flamingprick]

[Rin is there, because of course he is. Gotta stick with the shounen squad and all.]

Um.

There's. Tsumugi's in the library.

[chosemyfate]

[WELL. HE DOES know of your relationship with this person he's about to mention, so this made him hesitant when he saw the recyclr message.]

....

McGonagall and I found Dazai in the waters of the aquarium tunnel.

I'm sorry.

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[just rolling through to pick up coffee]

Maki's in the maintenance room.

[insurgeont]

[ THANKS FOR TELLING ULAZ WHERE YOU TO FIND YOU TWO IDIOTS, NOW IT IS ADDITIONAL MURDER TIME--

OK no he does actually get that they want to be involved in this, that's very understandable, but maybe don't sneak out on him??? ]

I discovered what I believe to be the body of Jack Wolcott in the science lab. It was badly burned, and may have been the result of an accident. I would not suggest going in that room.

[ It smells TERRIBLE in there, you guys. ]

Furthermore, I would suggest any discussion of suspects and the like be moved to the infirmary.

[ HINT. HINT. ]
