Fourth Investigation

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Ok ok, surely no one would even think of taking this motive right? Right??? See, there's not even anything off in the hotel today! Maybe that's proof that everyone finally wised up?

... You still wanna Investigate, since your missing socks are back?]

[but how can it burn if it's in water what is this madness]

[Yeah, she's just gonna fish that out, what kind of fabric are we talking about here?]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[It's spongebob logic spongebob is the culprit.

The fabric has been burnt pretty badly, and seems to have been torn up too. It does feel like it was a natural material, however.

... And something else falls out too]

[in4apounding]

[Can she tell what color the fabric was or what it might have come from?]

[Also what that]

[please don't be another tiny body, please don't be another tiny body-]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[She can't tell the color but it seems like it might have come from an article of clothing.

If you consider a small lighter a tiny body, then it's a tiny body!]

[in4apounding]

[THAT LIGHTER HAD FAMILY HOW DARE YOU okay though just a standard disposable Bic lighter or a refillable flip-top Zippo kind of thing?]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Just the standard kind of lighter you'd find in the weed dispensary!]

[in4apounding]

[Bold of you to assume she knows what the dispensary's stock looks like. No convenient monograms or anything then. She will give it an experimental click just to see if it's still working after all this.]

[Anything else in the machine?]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[It still works!

Nothing in it, but there is something else of note on the machine.]

[in4apounding]

[Is it blood. Please don't be blood or anything blood-adjacent.]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[c:

There's blood on the start button.]

[in4apounding]

[Well that's. That's fine.]



[At least it's not a pile of teeth or something.]
