First Investigation

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Nearly two weeks in the Haunted Mansion have passed. Parties were had, friends were made. In fact, maybe you've completely forgotten about the motive looming over all of you. However, as what might be dawn approaches the Mansion, you feel a strange feeling of dread as you wake up. Is it all in your head? There's only one way to find out.

Investigate?]

[Ford eventually finds the growing group of people in the kitchen, and sticks his head over Wendy's shoulder.]

What's going on? I saw blood—

[Oh. Oh, no, that's Karolina.]

Oh, dear.

[kindaruledatit]

...Yeah.

[It's definitely her. No mistaking that.]

Yeah.

[sixfingeredstan]

....I'm sorry, Wendy.

[He pats her gingerly on the shoulder; he knew they were friends.]

[kindaruledatit]

[For what it's worth, she doesn't try to shake him off.]

Yeah, so am I.

[So much for busting out of here together...]

[sixfingeredstan]

[He's bad at this but he's Trying.]

We'll find whoever did this. I promise.

[kindaruledatit]

Yeah! Of course, I mean, that's what you're supposed to do, right?

[That's how it works in the movies and shows. That's how it goes.

She's honestly asking him.]

[sixfingeredstan]

That's right.

[He's never investigated a murder, either, but it only follows logically that they ought to investigate and find the murderer.]
