Fifth Investigation

[Good morning, Champions. Nothing seems immediately amiss this morning. No explosions or screaming or anything to that effect, so it's already better than last week. Maybe PAL was full of shit after all. Possibly.

Might should take a look around anyway, though. Just in case.

[When she touches his shoulder, she'll notice that he's cold and very, very stiff. He doesn't move much when shaken, but his thick curls of red-violet hair fall back from his face to reveal an unnatural frozen slackness to his expression.

Ardyn Lucis Caelum Tenmyouji Wakasa Church of Caeldonia is dead.]

[oOOOOH FUCKING

FUCK

NOPE

N O P E]

Oh no, oh no...oh no no no, not...

[The startled gasp that pushes Pyrrha back a few steps when she sees that face is quick and loud. Her hands flying up to cover her mouth as she quickly comes to a realization.]

No... N-no! Ardyn, no! You can't have...!

[Junpei's next stop of "places likely for murder" is, of course, the restaurant, and

[Hey. You know who needs some breakfast?

And also to see where the guy who sleeps til noon could be so early?

Man, did something happen already...

[Junpei kinda needs to sit down, but the chairs seem very far away.]

...What.

[...]

Who.

[yeah neither of those are...actually questions]

.........Shit.

[Yeah, Junpei's just kind of quietly gonna. Approach that table, but slip down to his knees before he quite makes it.

This is fine.]

[Have fun over there Church is staying over here rooted to this spot and he also might not be breathing but it's fine.]

[WE'RE FINE]

[Hey Church, do you need a hug? Trick question, it doesn't matter, because you're getting one, ex-roomie. He's sure someone else can take Junpei.]

[Nari is just going to gently push Jane away.]

Please don't. Please.

I can't not try! I can't...

[...Y-Yeah no she's gonna run into the kitchen now, see you later Nari.]

[Well, the restaurant seems like a good place to stop by in the... morn...ing....]

What?

[That's not... That's not right, is it? Why is Ardyn looking so still?]

[...she knew. She'd immediately had that horrible sense of dread that told her this wasn't right-- it wasn't like him.

And yet it doesn't stop her from turning her back on the scene and kicking a table as hard as she could.]

...you said... we'd get out of here together... you promised!

[...just another person she loved to die. Only natural, right?]

How am I supposed to...?

[Well, that sound sure was audible down in Room 4.]

What is--

[FUCK]

[A quiet moment and then--]

....ahahahHAHAHA.

[Mmmm. Not okay.]

'f you can't do it then leave it to me.

[Oh. Oh. There's the source of the murderous intent.]

[..........]

Dame Syo.

You didn't forget how to tell us apart. How nice. Even so... this kind of freedom isn't something I normally get anymore.

What a joyous occasion. It just makes me want to kill you all.

It isn't difficult.

[Didn't even have to use her hedgehog identification powers.]

If you're only going to stand there and say menacing things, then I must ask you to leave.
