The town is quiet, eerily so. All animals, all chatter, all gusts of wind have come to a complete stop this morning. A tumbleweed passes by through the center of town and the rocking chair on the Sheriff's porch sways but remains silent. Everything is muted and as the door of the hotel opens, the only sensation that rings utterly true today is this:
One of your own is gone.
And now, as the rules state, it is your job to discover their fate.
Welcome to the investigation post! If your character decides to search an area, please post the name of the location in your header and wait for the mod replies. Anything to discover or not to will be indicated during the course of the thread.
After the body is discovered, an announcement will be made and characters are free to spend the rest of the afternoons how they like. If there are any questions, please shoot a message either to this journal or at ![[plurk.com profile]](https://plurk.com/favicon.ico) robowest.

Where the hell- Did he get set free? [Well, might as well look at what's closest; who knows how far Whole Ass Man could have gotten? He'll take a look at the porch, then peek his head into the first floor.]

The jail cells that currently hold the unconscious forms of Jason Todd, Milla Maxwell, and Yuna Yuki. They all seem to be, uh, piled on top of each other in one cell. Yikes. ]
no subject
[excuse.]
[He can't seem to tell whether they're dead or just unconscious, so he first leans in to see if they're breathing - and then, if he can get a finger far enough through the bars, to poke Jason's unconscious body.]
no subject
There's also the fact that now Okabe is closer, he can probably see that they're all sort of lying in a pile of blankets and pillows.
There's an empty bag of chips nearby.
Probably like, doritos and mountain dew or something. ]
no subject
[With more bravado than he feels, he manages the first thing that comes to mind:] I didn't expect you to go for middle-schoolers. Have you no class?
[Milla's certainly not bad, though.]
no subject
except Yuna wakes up first because she was like, half-unconscious at best because Jason is asleep on and drooling all over her shoulder on top of everything else that makes sleeping in the jail cell a Struggle, so this rude joke is WASTED
she just sort of looks over at Milla, looks over at Jason, yawns, and finally looks up at Okabe. she's...really sleepy......]
...Huh?
no subject
[Except nothing is respectable about this situation at all.]
Good... Morning. Uh... How did you all get in here?
no subject
Please don't be too loud, they're really sleepy and I don't want to wake them... [child, please.] Milla and I stayed outside last night because we didn't want Jason to be alone, and Mister Sheriff didn't like that...
[SO. HERE WE ARE]
no subject
no subject
[even though she got chucked in jail for it she's counting it as a win]
...I don't know.
[THIS IS JUST WHERE THEY ARE NOW, SHE GUESSES]
no subject
[she missed dinner she has no fuel she is out]
[and she is snoring. loudly]
no subject
Either way, just let him drool on Yuna's shoulder through all of this.
Or throw something at his face to wake him up.
It's cool.]
no subject
no subject
That answers that, then.
[ they all seem to be alive. yay. ]
no subject
They were just...? This is ridiculous!
[SOMEONE IS PISSED BC HE WORRIED.]
no subject
[ #reasonable encouragement ]
no subject
[GUESS WHO'S STILL AWAKEish
so, tiny yuna wave!!! there's only so much movement she can do here, she's half asleep and also jason is drooling on one of her shoulders, but then she presses her finger to her lips]
They're really sleepy, please don't wake them up...
[she is also really sleepy but Whatever]
no subject
We thought all of you were dead. Why are you even in here together? The Sheriff?
no subject
no subject
We're okay. I'm sorry, we didn't want to worry anyone... [She sighs, more trying not to yawn again.] Milla and I didn't want Jason to be by himself last night, though, so we stayed outside, and the sheriff didn't like that...
no subject
[Omg don't just almost yawn like this is nothing!!!]
no subject
Robin, please don't yell... [ugh jason yelled at her too let her live!!!! But she is taking him seriously; she meets his eyes and there's a certain sort of sternness in her expression even though she's upset. She still speaks very softly, trying not to wake her cellmates.]
He couldn't move much at all on his own. I know he's tough, but what would have happened if someone was sneaking around, or some coyotes showed up? [She frowns, turns to where Jason is asleep on her, then back to Damian.] I'm sorry. I really didn't want to worry anybody, and I know Milla and Jason wouldn't have wanted to, either. But he was all alone, and I was scared for him.
[A slow, careful breath, and then:] I wouldn't have done this if I didn't think I could take care of myself, too.
no subject
Todd can handle himself. He looks and acts stupid, but he's not. [Also, surprisingly, Damian is actually Damianified today. He lacks the suit people have typically seen him in, regardless of whether or not they matched "Damian Wayne" to the Robin persona.]
Did you see or hear anything last night?
not here
could it be
that damian actually respects and cares about him???
too bad jason todd is too busy snoozing to ever find out]

no subject
I know he's not stupid. If anyone's trapped, injured, and alone, though, they aren't safe.
[so she's a weird sort of grateful to have him drooling on her instead of, y'know, being dead.]
I'm really sorry I worried you. You don't have to forgive me, but Milla came along because of me, and Jason didn't do anything wrong, so please don't be mad at them.
[BUT ON A MOMENTARILY LESS GROSSLY FEELINGSY NOTE]
No, none of us did. Did something happen?
