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 robowest.
[Oh boy now a kid is trying to comfort him. But... fine okay, this is fine.]
Right... Thanks. I'm fine, really.
[He's doing a slightly better job at hiding that he's upset now, anyway. He just needed a bit to get his poker face back in order. Everything here is really starting to wear on him...]
[If an innocent person has to take the fall again, on top of all of this... Well, let's hope it doesn't come to that.
Eliot shakes his head, mostly to himself. Right, he needs to clear his head.] ...Gonna take a walk. [And then he... walks off. Because yeah you know what, let's just not deal. with this. for a bit.]
