Third.

[trustharder]

There's tension in the air come Friday morning; the time limit posed by the Kingmaker isn't quite up yet, but as the deadline draws closer, the more anxious several Survivors have been about it. The first floor seems largely fine today; at the very least, there are no signs of a scuffle or a body lying around. It might be good to make sure that the upper floors have fared so well. After all, Fridays haven't had the best track record around here. >Explore?

Comments

[cherryblooded]

[Everything seems fine, but Cherryblod can't help his nerves in him when he rises on Friday. He should get some food in him, but... Maybe it wouldn't hurt to do a basic sweep of the vault, first. Just in case.

Anything immediately obvious on the second floor?]

[trustharder]

[Given that the art room is immediately visible from the stairs...there's something pretty amiss in there, actually.]

[captainobnoxious]

[Sigrun's all for checking out the third floor, really, particularly the music room because she'd like to get her morning jam with the lyre in. The proposed incentive of kill or be killed isn't even the first thing on her mind this morning.]

[trustharder]

[Music room is clear!]

[garudynamic]

[Yosuke had gone through the night half expecting the Kingmaker himself to come into his room and kill him. Cuz it didn't seem like anyone else was gonna give into the incentive.

There's still time though, and he can't help a thread of hope when he makes his way upstairs before breakfast, meaning to do some laundry in the GOOD machines]

[trustharder]

[Well, there's no body in here at least - some stuff's kind of off, but not, like...cadaver-off. Success?]

[notjustawriter]

[Heading up to the third floor today. If there's anything immediately off, he'll stop, otherwise it's off to the game room.]

[trustharder]

[Congratulations on your lack of a corpse! ...Some stuff's not altogether right in here, but at least you have not stumbled upon more trauma.]

[isafraid]

[what's to be expected this morning? We just don't know.

Nervously, Speedwagon was heading up to the third floor to check out the game room]

[trustharder]

[Well, uh...yay?]

[sleepingkogoro]

[Headache. Again. Like in the past week.

That is why Mouri's first stop is the First Aid room in the second floor]

[trustharder]

[Go get your aspirin, Mouri, that room's good.]

[cherryblooded]

[That's where Cherryblod finds him. Judging by the pained look on his face...]

Detective. We need you to investigate a crime scene in the art storage room.

[...things didn't go very well.]

[ignorantly]

[ Shirazu barely slept because of the incentive. He doesn't feel like eating breakfast, so he decides to head to the sewing room. ]

[trustharder]

[You're good for now, Shirazu.]

TRUST HAS BEEN BROKEN.

[kingmakereffect]

[As usual, the alarm blasts three times. Looks like we're doing this again.]

It seems as though someone decided to act on my words. Capable is dead and someone among you is to blame. You'll have time for an investigation; gather near the elevator when you're done.

It's you against the guilty party again. Get going.

- Mion deserved none of this
- MORE BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD
- Where is that damn key
- This is kind of weird for a fight...

CSI: MURDERVAULT EDITION (4/4)
- Things this was not: a suicide
- Pretty sure hangings don't work like this

STORAGE ROOM (2/2)
- Missing rope is pretty obvious
- But why blankets??

GAME ROOM (4/4)

- Was Mion really this messy??
- Missing: One (1) Room Key

ART ROOM

[trustharder]

[wokeupdead]

[The detectives have been alerted and Lynne is on the scene. It's a gruesome sight but she decides it's best that she deals with the body while everyone else looks at the art room proper. So.

Before she touches Mion what's obvious about the hanging? Anything odd about placement? Anything knocked over? A struggle?]

Re: ART ROOM

[sleepingkogoro]

[Aqua has already put down Mion's corpse onto the floor when Mouri arrives]

Avoid touching it, Aqua. Please let me deal with this.

[It is more of a polite request than an order. The first thing Mouri, as investigator he is, will do is check the cause of death. Is there anything that could show she died from any other cause?]

INCINERATOR

[trustharder]

INCINERATOR

[goingdigital]

[So let's see what going on here...

Is the machine still warm to the touch?]

STORAGE ROOM

[trustharder]

[cherryblooded]

[Now that the detectives and doctor have been found, Cherryblod would like nothing better than to sit down - but, no, he can't rest unless every inch of the vault has been investigated.

So he picks a random room.

Anything immediately off in the first floor storage room?

GAME ROOM

[trustharder]

[notjustawriter]

[Well, it's.... time to look around here.

Gabriel doesn't really feel like staring at murdered teenagers today, so he'll investigate the room he's just stepped in instead.

What's immediately off here?]

LAUNDRY ROOM

[trustharder]

[The high-tech one on the third floor.]

[garudynamic]

[So yes, continuing from above as the alarm sounds and startles him. Shit, shit]

MION'S ROOM

[trustharder]

[Surprisingly, you don't need a key to enter.]

[ignorantly]

[ As soon as Shirazu.exe starts working again, he leaves the art storage as fast as possible. He heads downstairs, wanting to lock himself in his room for a moment, but changes his mind because they have a murder investigation to do and decides to see if there could be anything in Mion's room.

What's going on over here? ]
