[CONTINUE + 3] Week 1 || Act: mingle

[foundationmods]

Monday comes onto the snowy town once more, though it still looks as if it's 'night' as ever.

Then again, you are underground. That's just to be expected, considering no natural light can get down here in the first place. The Monsters around you are just as friendly as ever, despite this being your fourth 'time' trying this monday.

There doesn't seem to be many Monsters here...or at least, you think there was more before? Huh.

Well, whatever.

You still have a mission - And with three trials under your belt, you're now a little closer to figuring things out.

...How much longer will this repeat?

Right... there is the flashlight function on the phone.

[accessorytomurder]

Right. So, let's clear the dark room first, but, um... again, be careful with what you touch. You never know what's electrified or about to spew acid.

[foundationmods]

[The cell phone light provides plenty of light to illuminate the dark room!

This room appears to be a storage room of some sort. Just like with the previous room, there is a kind of ordered chaos to it. Whoever lives here, this clusterfuck must make sense to them.

Most of what can be found here are spare parts, but there are cleaning chemicals in here too.]

[accessorytomurder]

...um, is there a stick we can use to poke around?

[...Yachi. Honey.]

[improbablenotimpossible]

This is a storage room, with the arrangement - I highly doubt our otaku scientist is going to be booby-trapping everything.

[He does take a look over at the spare parts and carefully works his way through if he were the mess maker... the important things would only be partial - not completely buried]

[oceanicbutterfly]

[Karen, meanwhile, will be taking a closer look at those chemicals. She doubts they're an intentional trap, but before she tries to use them she wants to make sure they don't give off poisonous fumes or anything.]

[foundationmods]

[How dare you call out [REDACTED] on her love of anime :(

And I mean. Nothing in here is intentionally trapped, but those are some industrial-strength cleaners. It's the kind of stuff you want to wear gloves and goggles while using. So a degree of caution is a good idea.

And indeed, the important chemicals are pretty much right on top of the pile. As are spare parts that seem to match up with the robot parts in the other room.]

[accessorytomurder]

It's never the trap you're expecting that gets you.

[She says that with a jarring grimness, and goes to properly investigate the roboparts, and anything else of note that gets unearthed along the way.]

So... um, I'm thinking we should take these, and the partly-finished part out there, too. Maybe Mr. Spider will be able to get an upgrade, if we're lucky. ...and, um, just in case, we should lock it all up before Thursday night, if it doesn't work.

[oceanicbutterfly]

Good thinking. ...and good thinking.

[Karen will casually stash a bottle or two in her inventory (oh, so she likes video game logic when it's convenient!) and take a quick look around for such safety equipment, focusing mostly on goggles since she's pretty sure she can get gloves at the store if needed.]

[improbablenotimpossible]

Let's examine the other room as well - just so we're not overlooking anything.

[He'll take a few spare parts that look to be in good functioning order, good thing he's pretty decent with mechanics]

[foundationmods]

[Karen can stash the bottles! Congrats on your acquired cleaning supplies.

Sherlock is also able to loot some spare parts. They do say 'spare parts' in the inventory too, interestingly enough.

The last room is someone's bedroom, and it's full of weeb shit. Posters, shelves full of merch, and even a body pillow. It's all from anime that is probably made in the Underground, since the characters are all monsters.

...it might be best to leave this stuff here, unless someone wants to loot anime merch.]

[accessorytomurder]

...hm.

[Does any of it match the DVD case she found in the dumpster? Are there any important things she can find hidden among the mess?]

This is such a big and important building... is this really all there is to it?

[improbablenotimpossible]

I agree... there should be more to this - labs like these generally have multiple workrooms.

[oceanicbutterfly]

[Following similar logic to Yachi, Karen looks around for any anime merch that's something she recognizes, which probably mostly means anything that has someone she knows in it.]

It does seem a bit strange. Could there be another entrance after all?

[foundationmods]

[There may be, but because I am a fool and forgot to come back to this last night I'll cut it short and say that you won't find anything else right now by looking. But Sherlock is right to think that what you see feels like not enough compared to the size of the building.]
