PROLOGUE ; INVESTIGATION

[themodsgrimm]

The Story Continues... PROLOGUE - WEEK 0??? 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 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 (entrappings) and Britt (bloodthirstiest), as we will be taking point on this investigation! full navigation. locations taken (statuses) stories (profiles) info & faq wishing well private conversations

[Like ice water.

He knew that. He knew that once people die there's no way that they can come back. It's how you remove the trash of the world, how you make sure they never hurt other people, sometimes it really is the only way -

But Gi-gan wasn't like that. Gi-gan never hurt another soul without a greater purpose. She wasn't meant to go. She wasn't meant to go before him.

He doesn't have a response to that but - You don't know how to court a woman, do you? - Gi-gan would never forgive him for raising his voice against a woman trying to help him.

So his feet guide him away when he can't find his voice for anything more than - ]

... excuse me.

[ kind words aren't what he needs to hear, she thinks. he needs to face the reality of the situation, that this really isn't a game. his cold shouldering ends up being a relief.

she lets him go right into their pc. ]
