THE SECOND INVESTIGATION

[airlockedmods]

[Friday is quiet. Seth will find his Champion unitards once again in his closet, Togami will find the collar and baby carrier both unlock to let him take them off, and the ring toss game is gone. By itself, this isn't too ominous; the sabotages were due to end on Friday anyway, and the "motive" earlier in the week had left people in arguably better spirits than they'd begun it.

But there's something...off, anyway. Especially on the second floor. And, well, it's officially been a full week since the last time someone tried to make a bid for escape...

>Investigate?]

[cyan_maid]

[Ah, sure, why not investigate? And by that we mean Jane's headed to the second floor to the diner for bacon and eggs. How is that wonderful diner, doing, anyway? Any dead bodies to be found along the way?]

[imnotfat]

[Yes, investigate.

In fact, let's investigate the diner. Togami wants more cherry pie, what do you care, it's really good.

Also hey there, Jane, hope you don't mind company following from a certain distance]

[airlockedmods]

[You may wish to return here later, but there are no dead bodies in the diner. Congratulations!]

[overears]

[Good morning! She's off to the gym to see if any hotties are working out. Anybody here?]

[misplacedxsheath]

[Margulis is headed for the gym himself, albeit for much different reasons. Hopefully there won't be any dead bodies preventing his workout, right?]

[kingshaming]

[Good morning to the Space Station of Love. Xander was intending to head to the gym as was now his morning routine- anything of note on the way?]

[airlockedmods]

[About that.]

[curdle]

[ Well, sure! Before she gets down to the day's business, someone wants to get in some zero-gravity alone time. Anything weird in there? ]

[stitch_in_time]

[Hi Thomasin, looks like you and the Doctor had the same idea. He's been wanting to get a better look at this place, since the last time he was in here he was in kind of A Mood and not checking things.]

[bylight]

[It's the zero-g room for Lightning this morning. Still trying to get a hang of this place. Anything in here?]

[voltrounds]

[Ricky's decided she's going to exercise regularly! Aren't you all proud of her? So she heads to the gym first thing in the morning. Is this going to lead directly to regret?]

[airlockedmods]

[I mean yeah]

INVESTIGATION START

[theoverseers]

[Again, it's Bolton's voice that comes from the speaker on the PIPs. He sounds more neutral this week, but the announcement is still quite brief.]

Attention, Champions - the Champion of Counterfeits' body has been discovered. There will now be a short time for investigation before the trial.

LIBRARY

[airlockedmods]

[tasteslikesurvival]

[Okay, you know what? Let's just. Get away from the gym and the dead body. The library sounds good. Is there anything immediately amiss here?]

[refusedtoleave]

[She'd only gone to the library to finish her cranes. She even has her ream of paper with her. She's just going to leave it on the table for now. There's nothing odd about them is there? Or the chairs?]

AREA CLEAR

[airlockedmods]

GYM

[airlockedmods]

[fatherofsin]

[ Seth had groggily been on his way up to the diner, after everyone else, when he heard the announcement. That had thrown him into being wide awake, and he rushes to the gym. ...But before he even does anything, he just kind of. Stares at her. Pale, kind of in shock. ]

...No, no, no...

[ ...Give him a moment before he takes up his coroner job. ]

Re: GYM

[misplacedxsheath]

[First off, to confirm Xander's claim...does it look like she could have reached the hoop herself?]

[overears]

[She's glowering away from the body. Anything obviously out of place away from the hoop?]

DINER

[airlockedmods]

[bylight]

[Since there's a dead body in the gym, Lightning is not in the mood to stick around there. So she'll check out the diner. Anything out of place?]

ANGELICA'S ROOM

[airlockedmods]

[damnfourthemerald]

[Well. He feels even less bad about checking out her room than Chitanda's, and it worked out moderately well last time anyway. So Shadow's going to get in Angelica's room and...anything look out of place?]
