( 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!

His life wasn't a loss. Emily's, though, was. But you did your best. We all did.

[willremember]

Everything we did was pointless. We knew, and it still happened.

[potentite]

It's not pointless to try. It's pointless to give up and accept that fate but it's never pointless to fight.

[willremember]

You're right. I just wish it wasn't always like this. Delaying death for just a day longer.

[potentite]

Me too. [He just squeezes her shoulder once.] Let's just stay focused on what we need to decide tomorrow. If we do it right, we'll be able to come to a decision on how to end it.

[willremember]

Okay.

... Thanks.

[potentite]

[He smiles a little.] If you need to talk later, um, just let me know, all right?
