Mock Investigation

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Friday arrives, the deadline to go through with the motive. A motive which will destroy what you love most if no one is murdered. It's enough to make most people at least concerned about the possible outcome.

When everyone wakes up that morning, they'll find that the bedrooms and foyer are clear, so maybe that means that means that no one took the motive? Maybe you can just go back to sleep and forget this whole thing.

However, there are still those sprawling movie sets out there, but maybe we're just being paranoid.

Investigate?]

Comments

[Well, with her daily system shut-down complete, Virginia decides to go through the Rainy Soundstage to mope dramatically. Things should be mostly chill there.]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Muffled Sound of Silence plays.

But The Rainy Soundstage is clear!]

[bayoublues]

[Louis is going to head to the restaurant, as per usual. He hasn't even thought of the motive (or the possibility of murder) because, obviously, no one would kill if there was a party, right? Humans love parties.]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[The good news? No bodies in the restaurant!

The bad news? It looks like a mess now.]

[This is one of those mornings where Cinderella would rather sleep in, but the sinking feeling in her stomach forces her to get up. She gets dressed as usual and decides she need something to cheer her up. The Wizard of Oz soundstage seems like the best place for that.]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[I mean Cinderella will be harassed by the wicked witch every half minute, but other than that the room is clear!]

[not_over_yet]

[ Honestly, Basil's unfamiliar enough with the soundstages' varied settings that he's still not certain what would constitute as "not as it should be"... so he'll start by investigating the movie theater. ]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[It's clear!]

[windsintheeast]

[Mary, as per the usual for her, takes the time to stop by the London rooftops soundstage for a bit.

If someone got blood all over it she’s going to be Very Cross.]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[She will find the body of Bert laying on the floor-

Nah, it's clear]

[thevondrakehour]

[What a lovely morning for murder! Von Drake is going to go to the restaurant for some (safe for ducks and other animals) breakfast.]

[madmadam]

[Well, that sure is a pair of feet sticking out from under a table.]

[unclemoneybags]

[You fool scientist they're not real birds, they can eat whatever they want. Regardless, he accompanies his friend to get a bite.]

You should've woken up earlier, maybe Louis wouldn't have eaten the rest of the pancakes I had made yesterday morning. And I mean normal pancakes, not your uuh--

[He gestures wildly with his hands.]

Vegan. Vegan pancakes. Yeugh.

[grimgrinningghosts]

[As people gather around the body, they will soon hear an unfamiliar masculine voice through the speakers.]

Gwenpool is dead. Take this time to investigate the area and report back to the Foyer for the trial session.

Sci Fi Room

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Thank god the alien didn't vore her.]

[stepfordsynthezoid]

[After some time spent carefully shutting off every single emotional output in her entire system, the automaton mechanically begins surveying the scene carefully. What signs of the crime are there to grasp?]

[not_over_yet]

[ First thing Basil does--after getting back onto the floor again--is to glance around and see if there's anything of note nearby...
but there doesn't seem to be much, and somebody seems to be already checking on that, so.

Examining the body it is! ]

[mister_mystery]

C'mon, Stan. Think. Think, think, think.

[The sci fi room kind of reminds him of his brother, and the hell he put him through for thirty years.

Bad memories aside, Stan remembered Ford bringing a bunch of things with him, such as a Big Damn Space Gun. Maybe there were real weapons hidden around here, hiding in plain sight?

He's moving the props around, searching for something, anything that would help the investigation or break their way out.]

ROOM CLEARED

[grimgrinningghosts]

Restaurant

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Have fun ever eating here again.]

[onthestrokeoftwelve]

[Well she should start cleaning up. But before she destroys all the evidence, she's gonna look around. She'll inspect the pool of blood first.]

[bayoublues]

[After Louis has (semi) recovered from that scare, he decides to go back to the restaurant tTo investigate. He seems to have lost his appetite.

Besides the blood and the big mess, is there anything out of place in terms of utensils or tools? Maybe something that could be used as a weapon of some sort?]

Western Room

[grimgrinningghosts]

[YEEEEE-HAW IT LOOKS LIKE THERE'S A MURDERER IN OUR MIDST.]

[athleticallyinclined]

[ It's hero time.

Gaston marches into the room with head held high, immediately starting to throw around furniture in his search for clues and probably contaminating an important crime scene in the process. ]

Bathroom

[grimgrinningghosts]

[I hate how I only have "wash away your sins" for the bathroom.]

[sorrydoods]

[Guess who's freaking out because what the heck guys he thought we could all be friends

So. Anything automatically noticeable or can he have have a bit of a breakdown before investigating?]
