the third investigation

[airlockedmods]

[This week has been an interesting one to say the least. Feelings found, feelings lost, feelings repressed. Just feelings all around in one way or another. But there's always that terrible chance that PAL's motive has had the intended effect.

When the champions are awakened by the morning announcement their original abilities and powers have not been returned to them. It could be a good sign, a sign that they haven't lost another friend, but there's still that sinking feeling of dread that's starting to go hand-in-hand with Fridays.

Time to explore the mansion.]

An organ........ That... Is gross.

[Very professional.]

Did you bring it? [She might be able to tell what it is.]

[desperateprayer]

N-No, it's... It's in the garden. But it was wrapped up in this.

[ She's going to hold the unitard up. ]

Who... Who's missing one...

[everylittlesecret]

I don't know... I was kind of too busy making sure Junpei wouldn't die a second time to see who was wearing what before coming here...

[Who the hell would bury and organ in the garden. It's not like it was going to grow into anything.]

[desperateprayer]

I-I meant...

[ ...Nodding grimly at the body. ]

[everylittlesecret]

.... It's... I didn't stick my hand in it. But it might be. He died of blood loss, and someone stabbed him a lot. Slashes on the stomach would be consistent... Takumi... He. I'll... Can I go now? I don't want to be in this room anymore.

[desperateprayer]

I can... S-Show you...

[ If she wants is what Clarith is trying to say. She's somehow much, much paler than she originally was. ]

O-Or we can... G-Go somewhere else... I left... Arianna...

[everylittlesecret]

No... It's fine. I'm... I need coffee. Lots of coffee. [Screw clean clothes. After the trial.] Go get Arianna.
