Third Investigation

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Two people have already died this week, but no matter how you look at it, the requirements for The Narrator to call off the motive still haven’t been met yet. And with a motive that affects so many, it’s hard to believe that no one else will die this week.

At least, when everyone wakes up today, they’ll find that there’s absolutely nothing off with the second floor.

Investigate anyway?]

[ Ursula heads for the spa. Maybe there's more of that salt scrub and coconut oil to pamper herself with...

Let's be real, she wants to take a second look for ingredients. ]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Before you go any further, I got to ask a question even though I already know the answer to it.

Is Ursula wearing shoes?]

[anasty]

[ Actually, she found three pairs of clogs in the coat room so--

No, just bare tentacles like always, ready to accidentally soak up any dust, blood, or glass that might be in their way! ]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Well I hope you like falling over because wow, there sure is a lot of shampoo on the floor. Like, absolutely covered in shampoo.]

[anasty]

[ Mmmm watcha say

Ursula screams, outraged, as she not only goes skidding through the suds, but also no doubt burns from the overdose of ever so healthy chemicals seeping into her witchy pores. Oh, what a world! The mermanity!

Sure hope nobody saw that. ]

[geomanctic]

Are you okay? [Cornelia's on her knees, but she fell pretty gracefully in the shampoo, thanks to her awesome shoes. That looks pretty embarrassing, Ursula.]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Ursula is dead- no not really, but since Cornelia is in the area, her ego is probably badly damaged.

But if Ursula looks over to the hot tubs, she will see something on the floor relatively close to the tubs.]

[anasty]

[ Good, because rather than answer Cornelia's concerns right away, Ursula is making a mad scramble for the tub. Her hands even join her plight, yanking her up and over the edge of the tub with a snarl.

Whatever is on the floor can apparently wait until she's rinsed clean of this shampoo.

You know, unless the water is boiling hot or filled with blood. ]

No, you little fool! Did you do this?

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Well the thing isn't in the tubs, per se, but pretty close to the tubs.

They don't respond to Ursula's yells regardless.]

[anasty]

[ Well now that her priorities have been seen to, Ursula looks down.

Whose dead body did she just scramble over? ]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Ursula, could you pretend you are concerned about someone lying on the floor unresponsive?

It's another young woman. Like Thalia, she has a lot of blood on her, although not nearly to the extent of blood, and her neck looks horribly broken. Her expression is almost peaceful despite the injury on her, but even Ursula should be quick to realize that...

Amanda is dead.

[geomanctic]

[Okay, forget the giant rude octopus in the bathtub. Cornelia is getting out of here. She turns and runs out of the room- slipping and sliding in a way that would be comedic if... there wasn't... a dead body behind her.]

[geomanctic]

Obviously not! Why would I do something like that? [This is what she gets for trying to be nice to squids. Cornelia huffs-- making her way across the floor at a slower pace to try and get a closer look at whatevers on the floor]

[geomanctic]

[uh, yeah?]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Well she may still find traction a bit difficult since there's a lot of shampoo on the floor.]
