WEEK 6: INVESTIGATION

[dormheads]

week six: investigation

remaining 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 seventh 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!

WOODS

[dormheads]

[txt]

[Truly home a tree suddenly falls over on Ichinose and crushes her to death.

But, hewwo? She is approaching the woods, waving at Lucretia when she notices her.]

... Morning, Director. Seeing your face truly brightens my day. Are you feeling well?

[So, uhhh. What's visible at a glance? She is looking at the area immediately outside of the woods, checking for anything odd in the surroundings, as well as anything above or below the trees on the edge of the woods.]

[ambiography]

I- yes?

[good... morning, ichinose?? she blinks at that greeting, though. I should ask the same of you, maybe.

anyway, if ichinose has the trees, she's checking out the ground. also which section of woods are we conveniently at, mods? n/s/e/w?]

GARDEN + GARAGE

[dormheads]

[overlimit]

[rita shows up at the gardens! she's walking with a limp, but she's on her feet.

anything immediately stand out, looking out at the dirt path and the rows of flowers?]

[katzepaw]

Good morning, Rita.

[He gives her a look over, like he's trying to see how she's feeling, and then follows her towards the gardens. If nothing obviously stands out from looking at it, he will go to the greenhouse.]

CAFETERIA

[dormheads]

[illuminance]

[ lux is checking out the front of the building first, natch! any signs of a scuffle just outside, anything around the entrance? ]

[headmt]

Here we are again. Morning.

[ Yeah, good place. Before trampling in he's checking the door specifically too. Is it closed, open, messed up any? ]

COSMETOLOGY BUILDING + OBSERVATORY

[dormheads]

[steelo]

[ at the very beginning of this investigation ichiro sneezes a great big dad sneeze. it feels like someone was just talking about him just now....? he's got his arm still in his sling and is leading the way from winter dorm!

anyway what's up let's start at the cosmetology building! anything to notice on the outside ] Watch your step, guys.

[disreguarded]

[no, i'm just kidding, beau follows him sleepily outside from winter dorm. she rubs at her face.]

Careful. Oh, hey, Lalli. [shaking out her hands. she's gonna peer at the building also, is the door open or shut.]

ROCK WALL AND LAZY RIVER

[dormheads]

[arcsplainist]

[ Welp, here we are! Alphinaud is here, rushing by. He'll take a look around at the surrounding area by the lazy river, in case there is anything obvious that stands out immediately. ]

[feytality]

[ maya still seems kind of rattled from all the shit that went down yesterday, but she has taken painkillers and is good to go ]

[ she's going to go up to the river itself to see if there's anything sticking out from the water?? ]

😱

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.

EVIDENCE

[dormheads]

ICly, your characters will be holding onto evidence they found (aside the body, which disappears after a while once it's not within sight); OOCly, however, please mention here what your character is bringing to trial so that everyone has an easy list for reference tomorrow!

[steelo]

[duranduel]

[Sorry, but.]

[Mandricardo is just going to stare blankly at this announcement for a while...........before he just breaks into bitter tears, and runs away.]

[Sucks to not be vibing anymore, huh!]

[feytality]

[ maya? more like bye-a ]

[illuminance]

[ so lux looks at her phone. and for a long moment just stands there holding it, trembling slightly.

and then throws it as hard as she can at the ground. ]

[overshaded]

[ From behind Winter Dorm, a scream can be heard. It's an impossibly sad and lonely sound.

After a moment it's followed by a scream of rage and the sounds of trees being felled by a sword.

This school has shown Kainé that she will always experience loss after happiness. ]
