CHAPTER 3 ; INVESTIGATION

[themodsgrimm]

The Story Continues... CHAPTER 3 - WEEK 3??? Narrators Remain ; The clock begins to chime, and on the first note, curfew lifts. Your doors swing open, whether you are ready or not. Leaving your room is a blur. The person you fell asleep beside — are they still there? Have they vanished? Were they ever there at all? You can't seem to recall clearly. What you are most aware of is the pervading sense of wrongness in the air, and how you can't hear anything but the chime of the clock. Even the sounds of your own voice and your own footsteps do not reach your ears. By the time the time the clock strikes nine, you know one thing to be true: blood has been spilt. Search the castle carefully — you wouldn't want to miss a single important detail, would you...? Welcome to this week's investigation post! This time, the mods will be providing top-levels for you to search. Please note the Locations page for your reference. Evidence — or lack thereof — will be noted in these threads. We ask that group threads consist of no more than 2-3 characters. After the discovery of the body (or bodies) and any pertinent evidence, an IC announcement concluding the investigation will go up. You are then free to make your own toplevels on this post for any threads you would like to have between the end of the investigation and the start of the trial. If you have any questions, please ask on our Discord server or ping us on plurk. Please direct pings to Britt (bloodthirstiest) and Danielle (entrappings), as they will be taking point on this investigation! Instructions on this week's investigation can be found in a pin in the General chat! full navigation. locations taken (statuses) stories (profiles) info & faq wishing well private conversations

Hah. [ waver is unfazed by the lack of sadness in ion's tone and even smirks, although bitterly. ] Maybe we should all sleep in the common area instead.

[ but then he glances back at fitz, and his smirk falls ]

But this is definitely regretful. [ although considering last week... not unexpected. ]

Yes, perhaps. That way, we are all much more accessible targets, and whoever it is that possesses such a grudge against us might finally be able to take us all out in one fell swoop. I'm sure that everyone would be pleased with this outcome.

[ ion has swung so far into uncanny, serene calm that he's looped into morbid instead. here we are.

but he catches that glance back, and his own sunny beam fades into something more sedate as he shifts his weight to lean more heavily against his staff. ]

Regardless of who it was... [ regardless of who he might have ended up partnered with, in this game, ] I always expected that I would be the first to go.
