( INVESTIGATION - WEEK 1 )

[abhoth]

Promptly at 8:00 AM, both of the Grandfather clocks will begin to ring, the sound traveling to every corner of the motel. All residents will wake up as if it was any other morning. There's the usual hum from the air conditioner units and the sound of harsh wind blowing against the windows. While the sun may not have ever set, the amount of times the Grandfather clock rings makes it clear: it's time to get up and greet the brand new day. However... something seems off. Maybe it's a shiver of cold leaving a trail of frost on your skin or a burning sensation in your chest — but it feels like something is drawing you out of your room and into the outdoor hallways. Where will you go? Welcome to the investigation log! Please put the name of the location your character will be exploring in the subject header. If you plan on grouping up with someone else for a location, we ask that you keep it to 2-3 characters maximum. Once you're all set and ready to rumble, mods will be here to provide evidence if found and set the scene for investigation events. Happy body hunting!

I didn't touch him, but — Perc seemed to indicate as such.

[ However, she was dismissive because she shuddered at the thought. ]

I'm sorry, but... I'm going to write the stuff I remembered down so we can go over it tomorrow, ok?

[nowyouseeit]

Er-- yeah, that's a good idea. I imagine everyone is gonna want to ask you guys questions, since the body is. . . uh.

In your room.

[and that's kind of. unfortunate??]

[dva]

...Yeah. OTL... just our luck. We'll find out what happened. There has to be a way to find out the truth.

[nowyouseeit]

[wait]

. . . did you just say OTL out loud?

[YEAH THAT'S THE MOST IMPORTANT THING HERE]

[dva]

...Uh? Yeah? Hey! Are you seriously shocked???

[nowyouseeit]

[W-WAVES BOTH HANDS]

I am! What's so weird about that? S'not every day you hear someone literally say "OTL."

[INTERNET PEOPLE]

. . . either way, thanks for your help. I get the feeling we'll need every bit of it we can get tomorrow.

[dva]

WTF? LOL? It's just how we talk, y'know.

[ But, yeah she nods at that. ]

Right... least I can do, you know?

[nowyouseeit]

[he. he actually smiles, genuine amusement flickering into his expression. THANKS D.VA YOU CHEERED HIM UP]

Yeah. Least anyone can do, right? Can't say I knew Jason well, but I'm pretty sure he was a good kid.

[dva]

[ PEACE SIGN. ]

Errrr... he was good, I'm sure? Very fussy and loud.

[nowyouseeit]

Fussy and loud is one way to describe him.

[short laugh]

He's a chocolate milk thief, too.
