PROLOGUE ; INVESTIGATION
PROLOGUE - WEEK 0 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 your first investigation post! This time, as it is tutorial week, we will be posting toplevels for searchable locations; moving forward, you will post your own toplevels for locations you wish to searh. Evidence — or lack thereof — will be noted in these threads. We ask that group threads consist of no more than 3-4 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 Danielle (

There's a very tense quality to the air around her, as if it might catch fire just to get away.
Moving slowly, she steps through the kitchen, stopping only to locate, and pick up, a cast-iron skillet.
Her smile is nothing but sweet, which is what frankly makes it so frightening. ]
It really was a joke! Well, I think our senses of humor are pretty different, so I don't really get it. So...
[ Monika cants her head. ]
If you don't move, I'll replace your head with this skillet, because I'd really like to leave, and I'm sure the rest of us would, too! So, would you mind getting out of our way?

LATER.
HE'S GOTTA GO FIND OUT HIS PARTNER IS DEAD.]

Well, it looks at Sanji and nods. It's taking you at your word, and turns around to leave them be, departing with many metallic clangs. Who knows where it's off to now, or who its next challenger may be.
Find it when you want to test your metal.]

Monika probably killed a man at some point in her life. Cool. Sanji hopes she got away with it.]
I-it's gone, Monika-chan. We're alright now!
[Please put down that skillet]

... but it looks like the situation is handled and Sousei is wandering off like there's more pressing stuff to do. So fortunately he's going to opt for being responsible before being a floozy for once and just manages a smile.]
Take care of her, won't you, Sanji?
[ - and he'll take off too!
because
he has to find out mom's dead]

the tension that's been rolling off her in waves finally dissipates, and Monika puts the skillet down. ]
I hate this.
[ said very soft. unless sanji stops her, she'll leave, too. ]
no subject
He figures everyone needs some space right now.
And assuming there's nothing else to find, Sanji is gonna make himself his goddamn coffee before he gets to hear the bad news, too.]
