( 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!

Tsurugi killed Emily, so I killed him.

[willremember]

No.

[willremember]

Room 102. Me and Emily stayed there for the night because we... Knew he was coming. But it didn't help. Even with precautions.

[18x0]

[Without a bit of surprise:]

Well done.

[willremember]

Thanks...

[Dirk is holding a piece of broken mirror in his hand and standing SUPER CLOSE TO CLEM. If you want to suggest hurting Clem, you better be ready to die.]

[splinten]

I wouldn't mind, but this seems so damn thematically appropriate.

[the venom in his voice]

[willremember]

[ she just sort of. nudges him. ]

I think you can put that away. You'll hurt your hand.

[splinten]

I'm not worried. [BUT FINE he'll put it away because Clem asked.]

[willremember]

[ things to not do in public: this ]

Here.

[ she pulls out the kitchen knife. She's wiped it off a little, but it's still gross. ]

Take this instead.

[potentite]

[He smiles.] Thank you, Clem.

[willremember]

You're... Welcome?

[potentite]

[He pats her shoulder.] It isn't a loss.

[willremember]

It is. I was too slow.

[g101]

[ ARMS IN THE AIR ]

Hell yeah-- ouch!!!!

[ and down and pressed to her chest out of pain. ] I-- I knew you'd always stand tall... Owwwwww...

[willremember]

... You okay? [ don't hurt urself praising a murder ]

[g101]

Yeah! It's healing, yo. I'm totes fine. [ why does she talk like this. ] Are you okay, Orangey?

[willremember]

Oran--Oh. [ well that's the weirdest nickname she's ever had. ]

I'm... Alright. Yeah. I didn't get hurt.

[wristbands]

At least you're 100% honest about it.

[willremember]

There's nothing wrong with killing when you have to. As long as it's when you have to. If you have to hide your tracks, you did something wrong.

[wristbands]

I know what you mean, now. What you said way back... about there definitely being reasons to kill somebody. You did the right thing.
