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.))

[And grabbed!

Oh hey, there's Drew. Drew isn't in friendly marshmallow mode, he's in sharp-fanged and glittering blue mode, angry and defensive. But he doesn't attack Floe, and Chuuta stops when Floe grabs him.]

I... I didn't kill her. I didn't.

[le_mat]

[Ren just gives Floe a helpless look- hands up and harmless as posisble. And showing his half grown rock fingers since Chuuta showed up as he was cleaning them]

We don't think that, Chuuta- and we're not going to hurt either of you, right Floe?

[love_seriously]

Of course we're not! [ DREW PLS...she'll let go as long as he's not gonna make a break for it, but she's gonna frown about it. ]

Just...tell us what happened?

[homeecspacecop]

[They aren't going to listen. They don't care. Anything like "friendship" or even just friendly smiles here just falls completely apart under the slightest suspicion.

He's quiet for a long moment, not looking at either of them. Drew settles down, but he's still watching both of them with fangs bared.

Eventually...]

We found Usagi-chan's head in the freezer.

[le_mat]

Fucking hell...

Here, come on, let's sit.

[like, against the wall or something]

[love_seriously]

Her head-?!

[ That's. Fucking horrible. What the fuck. Usagi? Miss-sunshine-and-love-and bunnies Usagi? Her head. Her HEAD in the FREEZER. ]

Chuuta...

[homeecspacecop]

I didn't do it. [He says, as he lets Ren lead him wherever.]

They think I killed her. [And that's what breaks the dam, that's what breaks him down into a sobbing mess.]

They really think I killed her!

[The evidence points to you.]

Shut up, Drew!

[le_mat]

[he leads them outside so they don't have to sit on the gross bathroom floor]

Chuuta... you, you could never do something like that. I don't buy it for a second.

[love_seriously]

You couldn't do it...there's no way you could. No way...

[ She's mostly repeating after Ren, but there's something numb in her voice...because she'd said the same thing about Lance, too, hadn't she. ]

[homeecspacecop]

I...

Wait. Last night. I...

[We don't have an alibi, Chuuta.]

Yes we do, I was with Lenka until...

[We don't have an alibi.]

But I didn't do it!

[le_mat]

Shhh... Drew, whatever you're saying isn't helping. We're gonna find out the truth tomorrow. No one is going to rush into anything.

[love_seriously]

[ Grabbing Chuuta's hands impulsively, defensive Drew or not. ]

If you didn't do it then we'll find who did. We always have! We always will! Nobody's gonna get away with something like this!

[ Slightly desperate. He didn't do it. He surely didn't do it. ]

[homeecspacecop]

[Hand grabbing is okay, and Drew doesn't make a move to attack her.

Chuuta doesn't even react to being grabbed by a cute girl.]

Everyone's already saying I did it. They really think I killed her.

[le_mat]

Well, I'm not. And Floe's not. So already that's not everyone.

[love_seriously]

That's right! We'll find the real person who did it. We will.

Ren, can't you...can't you just look at him and see that he didn't do it? You're always finding evidence like that...

[ USE YOUR PLOT CONVENIENCE POWERS, RENREN ]

[homeecspacecop]

They won't even look. They've already decided it was me. [Sorry, he's a little bit in shock right now.]

[le_mat]

Who did?

[That doesn't sound like a lot of people in this group, so it has to be a Specific Someone]

[love_seriously]

Whoever it is, we'll make them look. They don't get to just say it's so.

[homeecspacecop]

[Who?

For once, Chuuta doesn't say anything. If he says something, he'll sound like he's accusing them. And he'd thought... he'd thought that Richie was his friend.]
