Second Investigation

[parasomniacs]

Week 2

Friday

[ You've all done pretty well this week thus far -- this time no one has even seemed to outwardly give the motive much of a blink or two. Given that this has been the case, it probably ran through everyone's minds that no one this week would bother to commit an additional murder based upon motive, especially since it had been already filled with the sea of three bodies added to the pile. Besides, who would kill for something like Power anyway? Psh.

... It wasn't like people had killed their own best friends for power or accidentally unleashed monstrous abominations in their quest for power, right?

Anyway.

As morning dawns once again and people get up...at around 5-6 am or so, for the early risers they may find something quickly, although whether that somethingis something pleasant is another thing entirely. ]

[Why. Why does someone he wants to live have to be on every week's suspect list? Never mind that this is only the second time out of two but damn if it isn't two times too many.

He's not really here to investigate as he is to check up on her. Because... AFTER SEEING WHAT WAS IN THE KITCHEN... he had a feeling that her being a suspect wasn't a coincidence.]

They opened your room as well. It looks like the way things are here, they want to make you a suspect as well.

[Ahahaha yeah he doesn't believe it was her. Not a bit. He's actually frustrated it's happening.]

[voracitas]

[ Since this is likely after her kitchen adventures... ]

...I'll be plain with you. If I had killed him, there wouldn't be a body to be found.

[ She's surprised to hear she's a suspect at all, although looking at the butchery not entirely when she thinks on it. ]

[simplism]

I thought as much as well. It's more likely someone is trying to use that knowledge about you to try and make it seem that way.

[voracitas]

...Given the nature of this killing, they would have had to know I was a former gourmet to implicate me directly. I don't believe that's actually common knowledge.

[ But now she needs an alibi. ]

...What is needed of me?

[simplism]

Mmm... I'm not sure it was that well thought out as much as you would be the most likely party to make a meal out of him. With every piece accounted for, it does the opposite.

[At least, that's how he sees it.]

Even so, you should clearly tell them what you were doing last night in order to avoid any misconceptions.

[voracitas]

I can do that. ...Thank you, by the way. here are few who would think to warn me like this, I feel.

[ You get a rare actual smile. ]

[simplism]

[...she's really very pretty when she smiles. It would be nice if they weren't so rare.]

I didn't do anything special. I just believe in your innocence, that's all.

[voracitas]

I still thank you.

[ She's in a good mood, at least. ]

I shall go give my statement.

[ And she'll curtsy then. ]
