Second Investigation

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Another week has come and gone and there’s already been one body this week. But unlike last week, nothing seems immediately off as you exit your bedrooms. Maybe no one else died this week…?

Investigate?]

Comments

[kindaruledatit]

[YEAH maybe! They could only hope, right?

Wendy woke up with a sense of unease she swallowed as she made her way into the foyer.]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[The foyer is completely clean.]

[sixfingeredstan]

[Ford wakes up feeling heavy from the week's events, but hopeful that this Friday won't contain another dead body. He gets up and goes out into the hallway, glancing around briefly to see if anyone else is up, before padding out into the foyer...]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Absolutely nothing seems off in both these areas. Maybe this is a good sign?]

[kindaruledatit]

[Ford gets a tired wave from Wendy as she's on her way. Sup old man?]

[toogoodforhim]

[Lefou wakes up wrapped in warm leather and shrugs it off, dragging himself out of bed and heading to the kitchen. Does he get to make some bread and jam to eat or is this a dead body zone again?]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Luckily for Lefou and pretty much everyone for that matter, the kitchen is body-free! Go enjoy a nice breakfast!]

[capulion]

[Enjoy the big kitty begging for meats while you make toast buddy.]

[chainbroke]

[ oh good there's no death in here to traumatize her further

... She still seems pretty unsure as she comes in though. ]

Good morning, Lefou.

[Despite literally everyone telling her what a bad idea it is, Star isn't giving up on contacting ~the other side~ for help, so she heads straight to the seance room on Friday.]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Star I'm not entirely sure contacting demons when there may be a dead body is the best idea.

But at least it is body free and clean. Shame you can't do any sacrifices with any bodies here, though.]

[capulion]

[Kiara has seen plenty of dead bodies in her life, but she has seen far too much irreverent gore for a lifetime.

After Anna, she just really doesn't want to deal with this. She leaves her room to go sniff around the Kitchen for easy to reach food.]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[The kitchen is completely clean!]

[terribibble]

[Fiddleford, pleased to find that there's no body immediately visible when he leaves his room this morning (he's begun to feel that way most mornings, and he can't decide if that's good or bad), makes his way to the conservatory to drink his first of many cups of coffee.]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[A no better way to wake up than to look at dead people in the graveyard, huh? Well luckily for Fiddles there is nothing off about the conservatory to distract from that.]

[whistlenotchirp]

[Well, its the start of a new day. And that new day must be protected at all costs.

Which means he's going to the billiards room to make sure things are secure.]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Some things may seem out of place, but Jiminy can continue his rage against the pool table if he wants to.]

[yourghosthost]

[And once the dust settles again, Ghost Host makes another announcement. He seems almost... tired? frustrated? as he speaks.]

Sophie Hatter is dead. Like last week, after you're done with investigation, everyone must report to the stretching room for your trial.

[ilovepuppies]

[Star cups her hands and yells at the ceiling.]

YOU'RE A BIG STUPID JERK AND YOU SMELL.

[grimgrinningghosts]

Total Count 15/15

Music Room 8/8
Maybe it's an accidental gash?
And accidental bruises
I already used bloody good time last week
Maybe she was trying to write something out?
Okay who was playing pool in the music room?
Badly playing pool
Well this note looks innocent
Wow rude, stealing a perfectly good curtain


Ballroom 3/3
The piano is just trying to live
Obviously the piano just ate Sophie
What monster would harass this poor piano and then steal its wires?

Billiards Room 1/1
What did I say about keeping Jiminy out?

Study 3/3
Well someone wanted to burn something
Aaah nothing like cutting wires while you're in the study.
Maybe it's a friendly wire?

Music Room

[grimgrinningghosts]

[They begin to vocalize.]

[sixfingeredstan]

[Ford decides to stick around the music room and look for clues; he kneels down beside Sophie's body to look for a possible cause of death.]

Ballroom

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Maybe have a romantic dance after the dead body?]

[nobodyperfect]

[After that announcement - another person he's barely talked to, dead, and nothing to remember them by, again! - Lea's checking out the least-occupied room upstairs. He doesn't want to be social particularly, but he does want to help this time.]

Billiards Room

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Don't let Jiminy in here.]

[whistlenotchirp]

[TOO LATE FUCKERS.

But honestly, what Jiminy's really looking for is some kind of stability. And cleaning up his little protection system is the way he wants to go about it.

He starts by circling the table itself, looking for anything notable.]

Study

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Nothing like a giant fire to calm you down after a murder.]

[arpeggiositar]

[Well, maybe there's something to find here. Is there really anything to find? Demyx is aware something happened in the Music Room, and that the Study was kind of far from that place, but...it was worth a try.

Did someone make a big mess in here or something?]
