[ WEEK FOUR – INVESTIGATION ]

INVESTIGATION


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] robowest.

You're not funny! We were really scared. You need to thank her yourself.
insincerely: ᴍᴀɴɢᴀ. (i have several christmas dates lined up)

[He shrugs.]

But weren't you relieved when you realized she was still alive?

[ Stares at him.

Making her way over is painstaking - it's slow and requires a lot of hopping - and once she makes it to him, she has to grasp his sleeve to keep her balance.

And then she smacks him upside the head. Not hard, but. ]


You're awful. You should go rest, you look like you need it.
insincerely: ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ. (whatever liezel you loser)

[Well, he takes the smack, because yeah, he deserves that one.]

Should you be saying that to me?

I'm not the one who was in the stocks all night! And I'm ... fine, [ she says, even though She Is Not Fine. ]
insincerely: ᴍᴀɴɢᴀ. (oh you think i care)

[personal profile] insincerely 2017-02-11 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
Great, glad we have that settled. Then, I'm fine too. I'm alive, aren't I?

You're lucky you are, [ she says, more quietly than before. ]

You still need rest. You're not getting away that easily.
insincerely: ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ. (whatever liezel you loser)

[Oh, he knows that well.]

And what are you going to do about it?

[personal profile] ceded 2017-02-11 01:50 am (UTC)(link)
Bother you until you do, [ she says, lifting her free hand to poke him in the chest. ]
insincerely: ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ. (no let's not do karaoke again)

[personal profile] insincerely 2017-02-11 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
...

[You know what.

HE'S GOING TO QUICKLY WALK AWAY (and do his best not to walk into anyone, except he doesn't have his walking stick with him, oops) because try and catch up to him on your broken foot, Xion!!

Though he's still hanging around the area. Nope, not resting yet!!]

[personal profile] ceded 2017-02-11 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
Wah!

[ you know

she was hanging onto his sleeve

so when he just kind of abruptly leaves

she almost topples over.

As it is she ends up wildly pinwheeling her arms until she can regain balance on her one, single good foot. Since it SURE WOULD SUCK IF SHE FELL DOWN ON HER BROKEN LEG AND BROKE IT WORSE, HUH, SHINNOSUKE? ]


Scaredy cat! [ she calls after him, annoyed beyond belief. ]
insincerely: ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ. (whatever liezel you loser)

[personal profile] insincerely 2017-02-11 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
[WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN HIS FAULT!!

In response, he turns around and sticks out his tongue at her like the extremely mature teenager he is, before continuing to walk away.]
