( INVESTIGATION - WEEK 3 )

[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. Mod replies will be sent out at 6:10 PM onwards, so we ask that you hold off having lengthy threads until then just in case there's a corpse smackdab at the entrance of a room. Happy body hunting!

Rachel's gone. There's words written in blood on the walls.

[ ...Sorry Percival. ]

Someone else was outside the lounge but Girge is handling that.

[ his expression falters, and he goes pale for a good second. percival bites his lip, heaves a breath and then runs his fingers through his hair in some attempt to level himself. ]

That's my failure to bear. Where is her corpse and who is the other person?

[fauxtetsu]

...I don't believe we can do much to prevent these misfortunes, so it's a failure o all of us.

[ Time to dad Dad 1, and Nagasone sets his hand on his shoulder. ]

In the lounge, still in her wheelchair. It's not a pretty sight, there's blood everywhere.

[lohengrins]

She was depending on me to protect her.

Your words are appreciated, but save your energy for someone else.

[ he doesn't deserve it anyways -- at least, that's what he believes. ]

There's something I need to see. Where's her roommate?

[ HA, HA HA. HA. ]

[fauxtetsu]

A promise like that... I'm sorry.

[ He nods solemnly in understanding. ]

I wouldn't know where he is. But if you wish to see her, act fast-- the Faceless take away the corpses for tomorrow.
