INVESTIGATION

You've got all your senses back, but with the return of them comes a grim, familiar knowledge -

- that one of your fellow campers have committed murder.

Someone is dead. It's up to you to find out who...and to gather evidence for it.

BASE EVIDENCE: 16 PIECES
CAMPERS REMAINING: ???


((We ask that you remain in groups of 2-3! As per usual.))

[ Boa looks over at Mitsuru with similar confusion in his eyes, then turns back to Richie. ]

Did you find the person injured by this?

[trashmouthtozier]

... No. We just found Natsume, unconscious. For a second we thought he was dead.

[he squirms a little]

... Do we know who's dead yet?

[killtheanimals]

Clarke. Found her in the field.

[His tone is completely expressionless.]

She had a strange wound on her side, and we couldn't figure out what caused it. Black blood, too.

[finalguard]

[ Boa doesn't look any more affected by this week's death than Mitsuru is, but unlike Mitsuru he keeps a careful eye on Richie's emotional reaction to the news.

Otherwise he stays quiet. ]

[trashmouthtozier]

Shit.

[his voice catches, and he swallows, squinting back tears]

She never did anything to anybody. This sucks.

[he just ... drops the end of the railing he's holding, and covers his face in his hands, pushing his glasses up onto his forehead]

[killtheanimals]

[And he'll just catch that with telekinesis, easy as can be.]

...We should keep this with us. We'll probably need it to find whoever did this.

[finalguard]

[ And at that reaction, Boa's by Richie's side, laying an arm around his shoulder. Though it feels embarrassing to do this in front of Mitsuru, the gained security of this week makes it easier to go for it anyway. Richie deserves this support and Boa shouldn't let anyone keep him from giving it. ]

[trashmouthtozier]

[sorry about your dignity in front of senpai, Boa, but Richie's just going to hug you, tight]

I think ... I think something happened up on the porch. The railing's broken, and there's blood down the hill, like somebody fell. Or got pushed.

[killtheanimals]

[Pushed...?]

Her back was...

[-But they're also hugging and, look. He doesn't really care? But he's not oblivious to emotional states, either.

(He just usually doesn't care.)]

...Maybe we should save it for the meeting.

[finalguard]

[ Boa glances past Richie's head to give Mitsuru a knowing look at the mention of Clarke's back. This adds up in all ways except in the one way it should...

But also Richie's pretty upset so Boa pats his back. ]

They'll make us do it anyway, it's true...

[trashmouthtozier]

Yeah.

[he'll soak up that hug a moment longer, then pull it together as best he can]

I ... I should go tell Eddie. He's still inside. ... Thanks, Boa.

[killtheanimals]

[Mitsuru simply nods farewell to Richie, turning to leave as well.]

I should find a place to store this for now...

[Gotta have the bloody railing somewhere.]
