WEEK 3 INVESTIGATION

[foundationmods]

Three weeks had gone by, and even with the other Witch being revealed, Friday came.

Waking up on this day began to feel like the prelude to something horrible.

To a horrible sight...and some kind of deep betrayal, knowing that one of them had ended the lives of someone they'd been speaking and laughing with just the day before...🗈

...But, they had no choice. This was the game, and it had to be played - set in motion by the pair of Witches.

No matter how they felt, they had to search, to gaze upon cruel death in it's many forms.

No matter....how dear the person once was to them, today...they would be nothing but a corpse to gleam clues from, in preparation for the trial.

And so...they had to push forward. Forward...to find a terrible truth.

[ Can they see anything on the back? Or is there any blank paper on the desk that may have imprints left behind on it from the original letter? Or any words imprinted on the desk from his writing? ]

[foundationmods]

[No, there's nothing. hm.]

[rikuchi]

[ He'll squint, noticing the scribbles here. ]

...Doesn't look like there's anything we'll be able to make out here. Want to scope out the rest of the room just in casw?

[ He'll be heading over to check out the bed as he says. ]

[keydomhearts]

[ Hmm. ]

Yeah, that's a good idea. Do you think they were written some where else?

[ Let's take all the pieces. ]

[foundationmods]

[Check it out how?

Though, on second glance, you may be able to notice a little bit on what they've put back together, one paper that seems a little less....scribbled on.

'Ryuji and Ann,

You'[] two of the str[]gest [] I know. At the end o[] the day, I don't th[] I could have asked for [] people from my world... Even if I [] think I ever would h[]ve asked for a []le person to be trapped here, with [].'

You can't make out anything else.]

[rikuchi]

[ Looking under the bed, throwing off the blankets, and checking under the pillow too because he's thorough like that. ]

No, he probably wrote it in his room and discarded it later...then again I guess it's hard to know for sure. [ ... ] Let me know if you find something.

[foundationmods]

[He doesn't find anything., not on the bed or the desk.]

[keydomhearts]

Hey, maybe try under the mattress? Maybe that's where he hides anythimg... mysterious.

[ Wiggles his fingers as he says that.

Also maybe he just wants to see Riku lift shit. ]

[rikuchi]

This really shouldn't be so difficult.

[ He lifts up the mattress. Is there anything there? ]

[foundationmods]

[There are a few handwritten notes about sleep aids, with Akira's musings on them.

Of special note is him talking about seeing chamomile and valerian root, and mentioning that they're part of Kurama's special sleep time blend, hoping that they'll help him get some sleep later on.]

[keydomhearts]

Did you find something?

[ Is it porn? ]

[rikuchi]

[ Oh shit ]

...Just Akira's written notes on sleep aids. He has chamomile and valerian root mentioned in there, and they're part of Kurama's "special time sleep blend".

[ His eyebrows slant downwards as he considers something. ]

I just remembered something. I'd been talking with Akira this week, and I asked if he'd had enough sleep, and he answered that he's gone with less. I think he's been having a hard time sleeping.

[ But he'll take the notes with him. Could be a crime of opportunity, he muses. ]

[keydomhearts]

[ He's not sure if he likes any of the thoughts that he has.

Putting a hand on the middle of Riku's back for a moment as he peeks over. ]

We can ask Kurama about it to see what he says. Maybe we should figure out who else knew about his sleeping troubles?

[ Just in case. ]

[keydomhearts]

[ Oh. HEY ]

Oh looks like there's a message. You. You're? Two of the strongest. Something. I know. At the end of the day, i don't think I could have asked for... hmm. I can't figure it out. People from my world. Even if I something think I ever would have asked for a...I don't know but it ends with an 'L' and an 'E'. Person to be trapped here, with...can't make out the rest!

[rikuchi]

[ ... ]

That almost sounds like a farewell. Did he know something was going to happen?

[keydomhearts]

Maybe he changed his mind? Or...someone else came in here to hide it?

[ Shaking his head ]

I don't think Akira would have though... you know?

[rikuchi]

...No, he wouldn't have.

[ He frowns a little, thinking. ]

Akira could've been trying to write something and then someone later wrote all over it?

[keydomhearts]

Maybe he wanted to leave something in case he died and someone else found it?

[ There's a pause as he looks at Riku for a moment longer before looking at the note. ]
