WEEK 4: INVESTIGATION
week four: investigationremaining students: ???
On Friday morning at 7AM, everyone will find that they're now able to leave their suites and dormitories. How will they know the time they can leave? Well, it's because it's hard to ignore the fire alarm that's blaring in every building of the campus, and also the fact that all of the banners and materials with the school crest seems to have changed into something different? Hm.
Is this a practice drill? Did someone pull the alarm? Perhaps there's an actual fire somewhere. There's only one way to find out.
Maybe you should look around.
Welcome Students, to the fifth investigation!
We will be posting top-levels for searchable locations—one set at 6PM EST and another set at 7PM EST. Each location will contain evidence to find, though it's up to your efforts as to whether you find all of it. Please coordinate investigation groups on Discord, as we ask that group threads consist of no more than 2-3 characters.
We will stop tagging each top-level two hours after it went up, i.e. at 8PM and 9PM EST, respectively. Don't worry if you don't find everything! Characters will get the chance to revisit locations tomorrow at trial. At 9PM EST, an announcement will go up, confirming the victim(s).
If you have any questions at any time, please let us know by pinging us on Discord!

COSMETOLOGY BUILDING
no subject
he is RADIATING stress and anxiety but like, people are dead, it's fine ]
Lux, are you ... good?
[ she knows what he means. ]
no subject
[ she feels... very frustrated. but lux squints at their surroundings... is there anything on the walls by the door? ]
no subject
He doesn't say anything as he wanders over to where the mannequins are lined up, peering around them to see what secrets they're hiding. ]
no subject
I'm going to stop Claude, because when he steps in—before he even gets to the mannequins at the back, the area in general is in disarray. Lots of things knocked over or pushed aside, etc. Watch your step!]

LAZY RIVER & ROCK WALL
no subject
Huh. I wonder what we're supposed to find here!
[ she kneels down to squint at the grass surrounding the river, and if there's anything obviously floating along in the river as well ]
no subject
Hopefully, nothing.
[she says, but she's looking at the rock climbing wall itself to see if there's anything SUSPICIOUS on it]
no subject
I can climb up the wall in a sec if we have to, but we should probably check the perimeter of the river, too. Just in case.
no subject
Meanwhile, Manwol won't see anything suspicious on the wall itself. She will, however, see a goose waddling away.
Looking through the equipment, Taichi won't see anything amiss. ]

😱
After you've all spent time searching high and low for any sign of what happened, a ringtone will emit from your smartphones. A new notification has arrived: a report card. What's it say?
Oh! Well, that sucks. Maybe should've studied harder.
Shortly after, all phones will receive a notification stating that all Dorm Heads currently attending mandatory meeting following emergency. Emails and messages will go through, but they will not be able to respond. (Please don't send Audience Requests but you can OOCly let us know if your character tries to contact them.)
Any further investigation will not manifest in any more clues. You'll simply have to hold onto the pieces that you have until tomorrow.

[This has to be a dream, right?]
[Mandricardo is just standing, looking at his phone. His hand is shaking so hard that it feels like he's going to just drop it any second. And the waves of emotion that come from him are like a storm - grief, sorrow, heartbreak, fury.]
...
[And he's just going to stride off. Somewhere. Anywhere.]
[Wowie!]
i have to be dramatique
no subject
His expression only wavers a moment, because who wasn't expecting this?
But rather than fury, of which there's only a flicker, his emotions are just—grief. Raw, aching grief. A tremendous, insurmountable sense of failure.
—And then he's off! Goodbye. ]
