( INVESTIGATION - WEEK 5 )

[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!

[WHAT. . . HAPPENED OUT THERE. . .]

A fight. . .?

[he approaches, crouches next to both of their bodies. and, like with Quer, he reaches out to gently shut their eyes]

Yukina. . . we need to get someone to copy down that handwriting. Someone with a good memory.

[thawedheart]

...

[She doesn't look too surprised to see Percival and Velvet.]

...a picture would be better. Then no one could try and say we forged this.

[nowyouseeit]

. . . I recognize that handwriting.

[he says quietly, as he stands up, back still towards Yukina]

And we know the Photographer. I don't know how willing he'd be to work with us, but-- [he closes his eyes and sucks in another sharp breath]

The hell does that mean? "Blood for answers."

[thawedheart]

[Yukina takes a breath.]

...I have an idea about that. It... clears up a few things I was told, anyway.

[She looks down.]

I think it will need to be either you or Jay-san who makes that request.

[nowyouseeit]

[looks over at her, eyebrows raised in surprise. he opens his mouth to ask why, before he decides better of it, and just nods]

Okay.

Stay here to make sure it doesn't get cleaned up before we get a picture, all right?

[thawedheart]

...yes, Kaito-san.

[And while he's gone!! She'll take a look around the gazebo to see if there's anything they've missed.]

[nowyouseeit]

[he nods again, reaching out to place a hand on her shoulder and squeeze it lightly]

[and then, he's gone]
