Third Investigation

[grimgrinningghosts]

[You wake up and, after everything that’s happened this week, you quickly realize something:

The music isn’t playing.

It’s almost peaceful in the manor now without all the demons. Too peaceful.

Nothing seems immediately off but surely something must have happened last night.

Investigate?]

[Well there's the chainsaw contraption if Marco wants to investigate that!]

[nachosquire]

[um no are you kidding he was almost murdered by a chainsaw





but he will anyway because hes a good boy]

[psychopinesis]

[Neku's totally breaking into the room, because Randall's an asshole.

No actually he's going to help with the chainsaw investigation and try not to step in the blood.]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Save Marco.

But immediately obvious (besides the blood and everything) is that the chainsaw seems to be held up by a lot of rope and tape.]

[nachosquire]

Huh...

[Marco hesitantly gets a little closer to it, poking at the rope a bit.]

It looks like someone set up a trap here or something? I've seen something like this in a horror film once.

[Is it currently suspended, then?]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[It's still suspended! However it looks like it was activated at some point.

No prizes for guessing when.]

[nachosquire]

[could it be when a poor fucking muppet man walked into it maybe

Okay, noted. Could he.. take the chainsaw off the rope and tape without getting all hurt everywhere? He'd like to get a closer look and present it as evidence and also.

Yknow maybe own a chainsaw for self defense in the future.

Think about it. A chainsaw wielding karate master.]

[psychopinesis]

[Was it when Arrow walked into it?]

So someone set a trap and he...walked right into it?

[Does it look like someone was holding it when it was going?]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[It doesn't appear that way.

... There's something else that might indicate how it operated, however]

[psychopinesis]

[Is the rope wrapped around the trigger or something?]

[grimgrinningghosts]

There is and... actually there's some scissors near it too.]

[psychopinesis]

[Is there blood on the scissors, will he get blood on his hands if he picks them up?

He's going to pick them up anyway.]

Scissors? To cut the rope?

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Well it's not actually something you pick up, per se, because it's also tied up near the ceiling with rope and tape.

Also no, there is no blood on the scissors.]

[psychopinesis]

[He'll leave them, then.

Why are there scissors hanging from the ceiling? What purpose do they serve in this?]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[They are currently closed, and, judging by the way the chainsaw is angled, was positioned so that, once a rope was cut, the chainsaw would go swinging towards its intended victim]

[nachosquire]

[since daimon is at work--

It's easy to piece two and two together with what the scissors and how the chainsaw was positioned.. but is there anything else to note about it or is that it?]
