WEEK 5 - INVESTIGATION

[petoskeymods]

INVESTIGATION

As you wake up, nothing seems different - beyond that you don't seem quite as worried about your secrets being exposed anymore. And that, just like all the times before, means only one thing -

- 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: 10 PIECES
CAMPERS REMAINING: ???


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

[ So uh, as soon as the beacon that is Eddie's scream alerts her to the body findings, Marisa speeds over as quick as she can.

Don't let it be her. Don't let it be her. Don't let it be Usagi--

But it is, and there's nothing any of them can do to fix it. Maybe if she'd just gone with Usagi to finish the shack she could have defended her, and--

Marisa sits there in shock for a while, silent. ]

[Eddie, death beacon, comes walking over after all the evidence has been gathered and her... her body has been reassembled.

He looks pale and ill as he sits down nearby]

Fuck...

[lovecolored]

[ Marisa jolts a bit at the sound of someone walking near her but, she settles back down. ]

...hey, Eddie.

[ She doesn't have any colorful greetings, today. ]

[itsagazebo]

[That's okay, he doesn't have any today, either]

Hey Marisa... I guess you heard...

[lovecolored]

I think everybody heard. [ a weak, wry smile ] Ya got a good set'a pipes...

[ .... ]

You holdin' up at all? [ "after finding someone's head"--she leaves her sentence unfinished. ]

[Lenka's vaguely here, eventually, frowning ferociously as he's trying to sort through everything that's happened over the course of the day -- of course Usagi's death, and the manner of her death, had spread in a matter of moments. Things like that always do, and he hasn't been to see the body. There's enough trouble here that he needs to attend to.

This isn't the most dead bodies he's seen in succession, but the intensity of it, and everything... it's a little dazing even to him. So the shock and quiet when they all come back together is usual.

Marisa being this quiet, though, isn't normal -- and he notices after a little while, coming by her with a bit of a concerned look.]

Marisa? Are you... Will you be okay?

[lovecolored]

[ It takes her a second to realize that someone's talking to her. She blinks a couple of times and then looks up, a little dazed. ]

I coulda gone with her. I saw her before she left. I'm....I'm not--fine.

[soylentprotag]

[So that's what it was. He bites his lip a little at the expression on her face and sits down next to her, settling his presence there in the hopes that it'll help a little.]

I guess you wouldn't be.

[Once the what-ifs start, they're endless, swarming like flies or buzzards at a fresh wound -- one slashing through most of them, digging into the bleeding scars still left from Sunday; from all of the days before. He hasn't found a good remedy for them yet. He's no medic. But...]

But we don't know what happened. We don't know how she was attacked. Usagi was powerful. [and if something or someone could take her down, then they could have just ended up with more bodies] So don't blame yourself.
