Fifth Investigation

[parasomniacs]

Week 6

Friday

[ Another week, another death... with last week's mistake still fresh in their minds, how will they fare this time around? Will the weight of it crush them or will they find themselves refined into sharp, clear diamonds? An answer is nigh-- because once more an eerie silence fills the hotel. That feeling that something's just not right may be familiar to them by now. They may sense it...

...that someone had decided that there is an injustice in the world worth killing for.

Although it may take them some time to deduce this-- they will find that the source of the ground and first floor levels of the hotel. It is not immediately obvious but some may get the sense that they are being watched. No doubt Sheepy will be watching them during their investigation and making sure things go by the books. ]

[The gap in the skin is an acceptable match to the width of the sword.

There is no bruising.]

[spatial]

[ Thank you, Vanitas!

She snuffles a little behind her hands, giving herself a moment more to cry, to be weak. But she's a member of Sabertooth and she has to be strong - and... Vanitas has lost someone recently, too. It's not fair of her to leave this all to him.

The tears don't stop, and every so often she'll rub them viciously away with her palm, but she's not sitting uselessly anymore. She gets up, slowly, and whispers a "Thank you," to Vanitas. It's past time to get serious, really.

First, she looks at the most obvious object beside the body: the sword. Does it look familiar? Whose sword is this? There's one thing she knows for sure at least. ]

This isn't... this isn't Master Stings'.

[parasomniacs]

[ You've all seen this sword before! It's the sword belonging to the mechanical cultists from Dio's execution. ]

[spatial]

[ Ah, she does recognize it after all... and lets out a sob because that really hones in on the fact that he was killed. Executed, even.

She looks around at the room then. There were no objects in her way when she was running up, but... aside from the blood that's on him, there isn't a bloody trail leading up to him, right? No pool of blood around his body? If that's the case, then a fight didn't happen here. There most certainly must have been a fight because, let's be real, this is her lovable idiot guild master. ]

[parasomniacs]

[ There is no blood in the area, aside from that on his body and clothes. In the ballroom, there are no signs of a struggle. There's not even a trail of blood. If he was moved, then something or someone must have carried him. ]

[spatial]

[ Well, then! As much as she'd like to investigate the surrounding areas to see where the fight occurred, she decides to stay by his body for as long as she can.

If there's nothing else immediately noticeable around his body, she'll quickly check backstage. ]

[parasomniacs]

[ It's clear the cultists have been tampered with. However, aside from that one execution machine, nothing else looks like it's been touched. ]

[spatial]

[ A mental note to write that down, then. Now for the changing room and storage/infirmary area. Are any of the spare costumes touched at all? Anything noticeably off? ]

[parasomniacs]

[ Nothing missing or out of place in those rooms! ]

[spatial]

[ And finally, the prep room? ]

[parasomniacs]

[ Also clear! ]
