week 1 || act: investigate

[foundationmods]

[Everything is still, silent, and dark - just like it should be.

There's been no indication of trouble, nothing like the last times, when all of you were trapped in games.

If anything, the town is gentle, the people kind....and nothing seems wrong. There's no danger.

Then, why...

Is there a feeling of foreboding?]

7am roll call

[foundationmods]

[Early in the morning, Undyne will be busting into the inn. She's going down the hall and knocking on each door as she goes, but she's also shouting.]

Everyone, wake up! We have a situation outside!

[Follow her?]

[justonezero]

[He is... so sleepy... it's a good thing he wears his mask on his arm even when he's asleep.]

...? What happened?

Re: 7am roll call

[improbablenotimpossible]

[Sherlock was up, quickly throwing on clothes - he had a sinking feeling in the pit of his stomach, mask on and the ears pinned back]

What happened... or is it better that we see this for ourselves?

[soupervillain]

Wha?! Mildly terrifying fish lady? I'm awake! I'm awake!

[ Giovanni rolls out of bed with a thump, pulls on some pants, secures his mask, and follows. ]

[finalring]

[ WELL GOOD THING HE'S ALREADY AWAKE, who needs clairvoyance when you can just have anxiety.

of course he'll follow. ]

What kind of situation?

Re: 7am roll call

[oceanicbutterfly]

[Karen is actually awake! Surprising no one who's lived with her.]

What's happening?

[romancekiller]

[clarke is a light sleeper but she is surprised by the sudden wake up call] What kind of situation?

SNOWDIN TREE

[foundationmods]

[The tree with presents stands, just as tall as ever.]

BODY

[foundationmods]

[Investigate the body here, please!]

[lovecolored]

[ Marisa leaves the body to the doc, but what's up with the tree? ]

Re: SNOWDIN TREE

[oceanicbutterfly]

[Karen takes a look at literally anything that's not her dead friend. That blood for example. Is it pretty much just a pool, or is there something like a trail?]

[romancekiller]

[clarke goes to investigate her body to do her usual medical checks and aside from the bullet wound are there any other injuries she would find? ]

[homeecspacecop]

[Anything weird about the tree itself? Or the presents?]

RIVER

[foundationmods]

[The river flows, peacefully and as ice cold as always.]

[soupervillain]

[ Just gonna... sit down. Stare at the river. Try not to think about the whole dead friend situation. Just watch the river. Yeah.

Anything immediately interesting going on? Or is it just rolling along? ]

Investigation end

[foundationmods]

[Once the investigations are done, Undyne will usher everyone back towards the Inn.]

No going anywhere today! The royal guards need to go over the evidence, and I need to talk with the queen about what to do from here. We'll let you know tomorrow what is to happen to all of you. Stay put until then.

[The characters are now on lockdown in the inn. They can talk, but please leave speculation about the killer until tomorrow at the trial. The trial will begin at 12 noon EST.]

Re: Investigation end

[justonezero]

[He is here

Being sad

That's all that's the only contribution I have.]

[ugly_split_ends]

Aw, c'mon! I didn't do it... this time!

[white_camellia]

[Nanaka sighs slightly after Undyne leaves. She understands the reasoning, but...]

It would have been better if we could have access to the ruins, but it cannot be helped.

[improbablenotimpossible]

Of course - I understand.

[Now that he's in his room, he'll be writing all that he found now for tomorrow]

[cw_suicide]

[welp.

time to check in which his peeps and then go and sit with a sad tiger because this is sad.]

[moonlightalter]

[Atsushi will spend the rest of the day in his room, laying on his bed, curled up around one of Inaba's sweaters.]

[homeecspacecop]

[After Undyne leaves, Chuuta is going to be pacing. And then, pretty quickly, he'll retreat to the kitchen. It's time to do what he does best, bury himself in cooking to get his mind off the frustrating feeling of once again being trapped with death looming over all their heads.

Congrats, everyone. There's going to be some good food set out today for everyone. Breakfast takes a while, but it'll be out by 10, and then lunch and dinner will follow at reasonable times. It's all very good food, prepared expertly, with several different options for everyone to try.]

a thing...

[whirlingmace]

[ There is a visitor in the lounge. She's sitting on one of the seats hugging her legs, and burying her face into her knees. Her shoulders are shaking, while she cries. Looks like someone heard about the kill... ]

A thing part 2

[whirlingmace]

[ Sometime after dinner, Cinque can be found in the kitchen pulling a tray of cookies out from the oven. Her face is still pink and puffy from crying, but she seems more calm. Looking over at anyone who comes into the kitchen to give a sad little smile. ]

There is something Cinquey should confess...

Re: A thing part 2

[justonezero]

[Oh... cookies. Hi, he's here.]
