MOCK ROUND - WEEK 1 INVESTIGATION

[foundationmods]

It had almost been a week since everyone had been brought here.
The days had gone by with no hint of trouble, not from the Witch, or any of her servants. It almost seemed like nothing would happen after all.

Yet, as everyone woke up...something felt different.
It felt...like they were about to take a step into the darkness.🗈

Like they were going to see something that shouldn't be seen....or feel something that shouldn't be felt.

This....was a fake game, right...? Then why....was there this ominous feeling? Like something nearby was just...waiting for them to stumble the right way, bringing them closer to it's hungry mouth...

...

No matter what it is, though, they had to step forward.

They had....to finally, truly start this game.

((OOC: Characters will need to bold locations to look for clues...or the body!))

[Bruno's suspicions were only heightened by the strange sense of unease everyone felt this morning. That witch... She never did reveal her two apprentices, did she?

With concern on his mind, Bruno got himself dressed before stepping out of his room and into the hallway...]

[foundationmods]

[There's nothing immediately different in the hallway...but, is Bruno sniffing around for anything?]

[beastlybruno]

[Nothing in particular. Why, is there an odd scent to take notice of?]

[overlordad]

[There certainly is an odd feeling, but the Overlord pauses as soon as he leaves his room and takes a good look at his door.]

[foundationmods]

[Nothing on the door! He's safe.

Anywhere else he'd like to check out?]

[overlordad]

Hmm...

[he crosses his arms, glaring at the door like it did something to him personally... then heads to the master bedroom]

FOYER

[iblistriggered]

[What an ominous feeling... Well... Silver is going to make a beeline for the foyer....]

[foundationmods]

[Nothing in the foyer, thankfully.

Anywhere else he'd like to check out?]

[iblistriggered]

[Phew... but maybe that's not such a good thing?

He'll head outside to the garden next.]

[helmdivide]

[ Morning everyone. This is quiet the fun little mood happening. He's going to be checking the the kitchen, because he's on his way to get a snack in his pajamas still. ]

It feels pretty strange this morning.

[foundationmods]

[Nothing's weird in the kitchen! Have a snack, jack.]

Library

[helmdivide]

[ Hells yeah. Just grabbing some cookies before heading back out to find the source. Let's go Upstairs, to check the library. ]

[artificialhighness]

[Luna has her sword with her, which people have probably seen around since Valentine's Day once I get around to backtagging that shit, and is sticking real close by the rooms. She'll be checking out the gardens, eventually, though.

She's looking kind of tense?]

[foundationmods]

[The gardens are clear! She also might run into Silver, who headed that way too.]

[artificialhighness]

[Never mind, she's just going to be over here communing with nature and the long moogle.]

[curryparty]

[Good morning, surely that ominous feeling is only that - a feeling, right?

It's still a bit early for breakfast, so Asuma makes his way to the Rose Garden. No one messed anything up out here, did they...?]

[foundationmods]

[Nope!

He might see Luna and Silver around in that area, though.]

[ladyscarred]

[Even without her powers, something doesn't feel right. But she wants to learn more about things!

But first, breakfast. So Scarred is heading to the kitchen to grab an apple.]

[foundationmods]

[Go get that apple, this place is clear!

Delicious apples.]

BODY ANNOUNCEMENT

[foundationmods]

[The goats go and quietly announce to those that have not already heard about it - that Riku is dead, and that there will be a trial at noon tomorrow.

Lambdadelta is nowhere to be seen, almost like she vanished into thin air...

....but a low, haunting chuckle echoes through the halls. A chuckle that doesn't sound like Lambdadelta....

...In fact, it would sound familiar to Jack and Vanitas.]

[helmdivide]

[ Ummmm. How about no.

He will look for Vanitas at this though. ]

[ladyscarred]

[Just sprints out the library living the books she had out on the table. Riku was the boy from the beach wasn't he?

She runs until she's in the foyer then she stops. She's got no idea where she's supposed to go. But then again, it's all faked isn't it.]

mild emeto

[iblistriggered]

[Silver is still outside when one of the goats finds him to relay the news]

Oh... Oh no. Not Riku!

[he liked that tall silver hair boy...]

But he'll be alright... right? It's just... pretend, isn't it?

[It takes Silver quite some time to muster up the courage to go check it out, but finally he does. He tentatively creeps through the hallway, finding Riku's room, and--

oh.

Oh god.

The color drains from his face as he covers his mouth, and he dashes to the nearest potted plant to dry heave]

[artificialhighness]

Ah. Now you've left the game.

[Congratulations? She's got a faint frown on her face, though.]

[accitio]

[ Oh...

The moment she hears this, she clutches her hand to her chest and closes her eyes tight. It's horrible, hearing it like this, and after she gathers her strength she leaves her room and heads to the foyer to join anyone there. ]
