RECORDING 11: THE FOURTH MURDER.

[foundationmods]

A fourth week, and this is now definitely routine. Waking on friday, with the knowledge deep down that your number has yet again decreased.

You must still pull yourself from your bed, and discover who is now forever gone.

...But, wait.

What's that smell...?

((OOC: 2 people max under a heading, please! Just to keep things easy on the mods. You can switch out with someone else during an investigation if needed.))

....

[ he won't say anything. go ahead and see your frozen fried friend. ]

[cw_suicide]

[yep. gonna do that.

and he's taking a pack of cigarettes from the lounge with him when he does.]

[onemolife]

[ Mind if he tags along? ]

[cw_suicide]

[yeah, sure. lover of friend can come with.

though the moment he sees the shape Ango is in...

it's so bleak.]

[onemolife]

[ Gun shot wounds, frozen tear tracks on his face, and something happened to his leg.

It's definitely bleak and paints a terrible picture of his last moments. ]

I was with him... before our game.

[ He knows he shouldn't, but... maybe it would have been different if he dragged him with him. ]

[cw_suicide]

... I was still frustrated with him about withholding about his vote, and volunteering himself.

[ah, it feels like he's getting strangled when he says it but there's no real emotion behind the words.

just the barest sense that the regret there isn't being allowed to come to the surface.]

[onemolife]

[ Dazai was mad at him, which was quite the contrast from Wei Wuxian's last moment with him. There was flirting, Ango shared his past, and then he did his hair... ]

I might have to be selfish again and borrow your shoulder later.

[cw_suicide]

It's not a very good one, but you can borrow it.

[time to light cigarettes.]

[onemolife]

The one borrowing it isn't very good, either.

[ If only he wasn't frozen... then they could at least have closed his eyes. ]

[cw_suicide]

... if I had some coins...

Though, I don't actually know if he would be offended by that or not.

[second cigarette being lit while the first is being put into one of Ango's hands. look. don't question.]

[onemolife]

[ He won't question it. ]

I can make paper money later.

[ For them to burn or leave with him. Not that it matters here but... ]

Maybe we should bring back some whiskey?

[cw_suicide]

Open bottle of it in the lounge is poisoned.

Some kind of mechanical chemical.

Probably... someone had him drink it during the party, to start with.

[onemolife]

[ Wow. Not only did he leave him there to socialize, he also got poisoned. ]

That's...

[ A bit overkill. Nani the fuck, killer? ]

[cw_suicide]

I could be wrong because weirder things have happened...

But my mafia experience makes this look more like a hit job.

[just... saying.]

[onemolife]

If they put it in a bottle, then anyone at the party could have drank it.

[ There were party games going on. WTF ]

1/2

[cw_suicide]

Ango has a preference for whiskey. So do I.

[yeah, idk. it's kind of a fucked up situation.

indicating the gunshot to Ango's head though.]

Execution shot. If he was already bleeding out, then he would have been on the ground, person's height--

[cw_suicide]

[actually.

hm.

someone probably checked that.

and this isn't the time to be talking about that.]

... sorry.

[said quietly because he knows he's doing A Thing]

[onemolife]

[ Shaking his head after a moment before he reaches up to stroke Dazai's hair. ]

You're trying to figure it out. We should get some pictures of his body... before pulling him out of here.

[ It doesn't feel right leaving him in ice ]

[cw_suicide]

They'll steal his body no matter where we put it...

[onemolife]

I know...

[ Sighing. He's going to reach for Dazai's cigarette though. ]

[cw_suicide]

[he can have that one, yeah.]

... I hate that I'm feeling relieved that it was only him and me from our world. The Agency has too many good people to be here...

[onemolife]

[ Taking a slow drag before he breathes out. ]

Can't really blame you. There aren't very many who that I could think of that would deserve this house.

[ He isn't going to say no one deserves it because there were people in his past life he would send here. ]

[cw_suicide]

[same hat, honestly.]

... I don't want to face his ghost.

[onemolife]

I'd offer to make a charm, but I don't know if it'll work next week or it'll work for long.

[ Shifting closer to offer the cigarette back over and start combing his hair gently. ]

I can tell you I'll try to be around to help when he does find you.

[cw_suicide]

[he's done smoking for now so actually just leaning into the hairpets.]

This really is... a personal hell.

And I can't even say I don't deserve it.

But maybe... Ango didn't so much...

["maybe" because he was still a shady spy]
