Week 6
Week 6
Monday - Thursday
[ There is a particularly somber atmosphere in the quiet hotel. The day before ended with a terrible miscalculation and an innocent life lost in the name of the “experiment”. Emotions certainly ran high and it would not be strange for those effects to linger into the dawn of the new week. Until now they had successfully determined and executed three other murderers. But the fourth got away. They may not want to face the future yet—but the experiment stops for nothing.
The opening of a new wing would probably be of little solace to them. But it's not long before they are granted a small distraction.
Early Monday morning -- before they’ve even had a chance to properly examine the new floor and it’s rooms -- a text announcement arrives, following a small jingle. The sound is new; different from the announcement tones used during the investigation last week. It’s just as loud and persistent, but there’s an annoying set of four repeated notes in a pattern that lazily imitates a song assigned to this notification.]
Hello participants.
I hope you are doing well this morning and are well rested for the day ahead. There will be a meeting held in the lobby fifteen minutes from now. You will all be required to attend. Any person who is absent will be appropriately hunted down and brought to the meeting place by whatever means necessary. An important change has been made to the experimental proceedings, of which you must all now be made well aware.
See you all in fifteen minutes.

[ There's envelopes of pictures in the drawers, just a variety of snapshots she'd been taking through her time in the hotel. Some of them are all the way from case 2, even.
A notebook is in its own drawer. It's filled with half-finished letters addressed to no one in particular and a few sketch doodles of this creepy fucking thing, whatever it is. Also these things and this abomination.
if he doesn't already feel like he's stepped into the set of a horror movie, they give off a very COME PLAY WITH US, CROW, FOREVER AND EVER AND EVER type vibe.
Besides the horrorart, though, there's nothing outright murdery.
For now.]no subject
The envelopes will get looked through to make sure there isn't anything more than just pictures in there. He'll also definitely flip through the notebook to make sure she didn't hide anything between the pages but he'll uh. He'll definitely stop to look at the black ribbon monsters what the hell?? Does she have some sort of horror fetish or something...
...
...]
Should I ask? [Maybe he shouldn't, but that's never stopped him before apparently!!]
no subject
Ah, I've been having nightmares, lately. It...it sort of helps to get them out.
[ She shuffles over to try to sort the papers back into place. Her drawings aren't that good, but it's sort of hard to tell with how abstract these monsters look, anyway. ]
I know they're a bit creepy, I apologize. [ a bit ]
no subject
Dunno why you're apologizing to me, though. I'm the one who stomped in here and started goin' through all your stuff. [It's not like she shoved it in his face or anything? He brought this on himself tbh, he deserved everything he got.
Anyways! If she has anything in or in her desk and sofa he'll gravitate towards that but otherwise. It's time to hit up the washroom!! Wow maybe he should've brought a girl in to do this part oh well.]
no subject
Well, they're still a bit offputting. [ also, she apologizes for a lot of things ]
[ Nada on the desk and sofa, except for the winter coat and scarf she's been using when in the ice rink. Nothing suspicious there.
Is Crow used to going into girls' bathrooms? Because it's pretty standard in there, anyway. Again, nothing suspicious, unless he counts Sakura hovering in the doorway looking a little embarrassed. ]
no subject
And regarding the washrooms... he's kind of used to it by now?? I mean he totally just searched through 3 girl's rooms last week, I'm sure he's experienced by now, even if none of those times imvolved having said girl hovering around him. w h o o p s. But onto the kitchen! Will there be grinch steaks or something or what]
no subject
[ w e l p
As for the kitchen, no, nothing quite so corpsey. It's clearly been in recent use, though, as there's fresh food out on the counter and a pot of boiling water on the stove.
..."recent" probably meaning "she was using it when he knocked." SO, AGAIN, NOTHING SUSPICIOUS. Aside from her ""art"", her room is very bare and devoid of a lot of personal objects, just as she said. ]
no subject
So, uh... they just prowl the streets back home or what? [Please don't tell him they do that. That would make your world pretty disturbing, Sakura!
But onto all this food, yes. At least he knows what she was doing before?? Maybe they should turn off that stove before stuff boils over or something but yeah. Incidentally, he might as well scavenge inside the fridge and the oven because I dunno, maybe people keep severed body parts in there? It's happened before.]
no subject
Hahahaha. Hahahahahahahahaha. ]
Not--not exactly...?
[ Nothing in the oven, but the fridge is full of delicious food. Crow has just discovered where she's been stashing all of her food now that she's avoiding the communal kitchens this week, congratulations. Like a tiny, purple santa, she leaves out food and goes back to her room at night........ ]
no subject
[Is he finally going to severely regret continuing on this topic? He is a master of Poor Life Decisions, after all.
But mmm, food. To be honest, he hasn't had many people to mooch off of recently so it's nice to know someone else who seems to be good at cooking?? Maybe he'll catch her around later when they aren't in such an awkward situation to ask... Anyways, nothing weird here, apparently!
One last place to check, then. He'll be making a beeline to a girl's sanctuary - her bedroom. Does she have yaoi manga under her bed!?]
no subject
[ She does not, by the grace of god. All clear in the bedroom, save for a few more packets of photographs here and there. ]
no subject
Okay, good. Again, he might flip through the packets of photographs just to make sure there isn't a room key hiding around in there, but if there's nothing else... then they're good!
...Except perhaps maybe one thing that was conspiciously missing.]
Come to think of it, though... you were a suspect before too, right? [And in the same week as him even, if he recalls correctly.] Did you get anything that week?
no subject
During the second week, yes. I was given a bear trap.
[ a pause ]
If you're looking for it, it's not in here. Winters-san took it for evidence and I never bothered to retrieve it.
no subject
[Although it's not like this hotel is apparently running short on things for people to kill each other with, anyways. Still, better safe than sorry.]
Okay, I think we're just about done here. Think you can just empty your pockets out and take off your shoes? Gotta make sure you aren't hiding anything in your clothes.
