TIMELINE: OCTOBER 1ST, NIGHT

N's Room - PKMN BW 2

[break][break]

THE STORM PEAKS...

The howling of the wind rises to a fever pitch outside. The rain plasters the windows, darkening the already black night outside. The storm is at it's absolute strongest.[break][break]

If you can ride out this part of the storm you know you will be safe. It's only a waiting game, then, till the storm eventually peters out and you can safely leave.[break][break]

Walsh looks over the case briefing again as well as the clues you all have uncovered so far.[break][break]

"Something isn't adding up." declan walsh speaks aloud, to no one, with a tight frown on his handsome face.[break][break]

It seems there is still much for you to uncover as the night wears on...

TEA ROOM AND HALLWAY

[break][break]

The team room fills with small talk, Madam Peacock's body unable to join in. Yuina Higashi, Elise Calcifet, Remiel Calcifet, and Grigori Sokolov raise a lot of very interesting questions to one another- yet they aren't ones any of them can answer at this moment. A shame.[break][break]

Grigori continues to wash his eyes over the scenery of the room. Madam Peacock seemed to be a well traveled and adored woman right up until her death; many of the photos were awards for generosity and thanks from various charities. There were pictures of her and her family, as well, her, a stony faced man, and then their son happily in her lap in one. Yet, while interesting, it does eventually lead Grigori to come to a conclusion. He knows what Madam Peacock's TYPE is.[break][break]

Clue uncovered! Madam Peacock's TYPE was FAIRY!
[break][break]

Elise focuses down on the stain on the floor. It's still kind of tacky; given what is known about the murder, it should already be dry if it was anything normal. But, she does eventually parse out what it happened to be-[break][break]

Clue uncovered! The stain on the floor was TEA, which was laced with POISON.
[break][break]

[break][break]

It seems that chatter was right. This could be the smoking gun for the case to reveal who the killer was... but it does call into question the motive. That, perhaps, is why Yuina and Remiel take such interest in the teacup on the ground. At first glance it seems like a normal teacup that's been dropped, just broken and shattered, but there is something odd about it. Even if Madam Peacock had fallen from the chair it is much too far away from her body to make any sense.... and away from the stain. There also seems to be something yellow and fuzzy clinging to a few of the pieces, but it's hard to make out what it could be without more investigation.[break][break]

Unlike the last pass, this time the hallway does not go abandoned.[break][break]

Kouji Matsubara stops in the hallway, something about the carpet catching his attention. The first is very faint lines in the wood underneath. Something even the best polishing can't hide. Like a doorway has been opened here enough to catch on the floor in the same spot- but there isn't a door out here, is there?[break][break]

Strange stains are also soaked into the carpet. They were hard to make out at first, deep red on red, but the faint outline of drying... something is noticed.[break][break]

[break][break]

Ambrose Hendrix meets howard slayte in the hallway as well. Ambrose catches a nasty smell- and it's not himself after that quick workout with the Breloom. It's rancid and sickly sweet with rot. Howard flees right into the smell, too; with the work of their sniffers, they manage to discover some things.[break][break]

The smell is definitely something dead. It smells similar to how Madam Peacock's body is already starting to reek... but it's not from Peacock's body. It's something else, something here in the hallway.[break][break]

Clue uncovered! You can smell a second body. But where is it?
[break][break]

The three of them manage to put what they know together and come to the same conclusion. There is something hidden in this hallway. Now they all just have to work together and find it.

KITCHEN AND GREENHOUSE

The kitchen is thoroughly picked clean- even if most of the people involved seem more interested in torturing Michael Navidson's taste-buds than looking for actual clues.[break][break]

While Navy, Hyakkaryōran Tsubaki, and Isaac Merlo play in the spices, Mika Nakayama gets to work on sorting through Grace's purse. She does, eventually, find her wallet- stuffed full of large note bills. A picture of her and a small boy is shown- the boy looks sickly and pale, laying in a hospital bed. They both still smile wide at the camera, even if there is a lingering sadness in Grace's eyes. As sad as that may be, Mika does find enough evidence to conclude what Type that Grace is.[break][break]

Clue uncovered! Grace's TYPE is GRASS!
[break][break]

Eris Halla happens to notice something peeking from under the hood of the oven. Pulling a stool over, she braves climbing up the metal chimney for a good look. It smells faintly like smoke up here and is leaves black grease stains on her fingers. Still, she ends up face to face with two faceted eyes that shimmer in the low light. The bug type crawls onto to the top of her hat. She comes out a little dirtier and with a VIVILLION as her new companion.[break][break]

[break][break]

Clue uncovered! Grace's pokemon is a VIVILLION!
[break][break]

Eris goes to deliver the pokemon to the officers. Meanwhile, Navy, Tsubaki, and Isaac set about to do something much worse than the murder- make the most disgusting sandwich known to man. All in the name of getting Navy to take a bite. They do, however, end up uncovering a clue in their messing around.[break][break]

[break][break]

The Cinnamon is sprinkled handily on pickle slices and peanut butter. Covered with so many other spices, it's almost easy to miss the
slightly off and cloying scent
. Or, the very slight shimmering sheen of purple glitter. Tsubaki and Isaac would realize it right as Navy went to take a huge bite of his creation- the Cinnamon was poisoned.[break][break]

Clue uncovered! The Cinnamon bottle has had POISON POWDER mixed into it!
[break][break]

If they manage to stop Navy in time or not is up to them- but since he isn't weak to POISON, the worst that would happen is he gets a crazy tummy ache.[break][break]

With that simple ingredient changed out, though, it does inspire you to maybe check the pantry for extra clues.[break][break]
[break][break]

In the greenhouse, while much progress is made- so far robin coello, mint frost, @adelaine, Gwyar Wledig, and a Rowan Wrynn don't have as much to show for it as their kitchen counterparts.[break][break]

Robin, Adelaine, and Mint don't find a smoking gun- but oddly enough, after some digging, they do find... cleaning supplies. Under many of the plants are washcloths, plastic bottles of cleaner, scrubbing pads. There isn't really a rhyme or reason to the placement and they seem to be hurriedly and randomly scattered amongst the plants. There are still a few more plants to search, though, and maybe a little more would help uncover something... or, perhaps, it had all been a waste of time. That was up for them to decide.[break][break]

Gwyar and Rowan, meanwhile, investigate the toolbox. The lock is snapped, not just left open. It would have been easy to miss. Inside, under piles and piles of tools are... letters. Love letters, it seems like. A quick scan doesn't reveal the sender or receiver, but taking the time to search a little more might uncover something interesting.

BEDROOM AND GYM

While the storm continues to rumble outside, Josh Devlin and ollie morales continue the search of Andrew's bedroom. With just the two of them, it's more work than they can finish on their own. That doesn't mean their searching is useless, however. While most of what they find seems to be random trinkets or just junk, a few letters are found scattered between the boxes. Who sent or received them is unclear, but they do all seem to be from the same person. A little more investigating will be needed to to parse out what they are, though.[break][break]

[break][break]

The group in the Gym do fare a little better, though the mess made is so large it will take more time than expected to clean up.[break][break]

Victoria Beckett finishes digging through the backpack. There isn't very much interesting inside; it seems than Andrea leads a very spartan life. There are, however, a few little clues hidden at the very bottom- under a very squished orange. After peering over what she's uncovered, Victoria can say with confidence that she now knows Andrea's Type.[break][break]

Clue uncovered! Andrea's TYPE is FIGHTING!
[break][break]

Cillian Quinn and hazel albrecht still endure howard slayte's presence until he flees. The two men work on picking up the mess, slotting the TMs all back into place. The case scans and beeps every disk that they place back inside, some mechanic inside of it. On a small screen inside the lip of the case, each scan also flickers a quick picture- some representation of the element of the TR inside. While the case is expensive, and the insides no doubt more-so, it seems these are all TR and not TM; each disk is a particular move with a particular type, unlike some of the more powerful TMs that can teach many things in the Hoenn they're familiar with. They also are useless after teaching the move.[break][break]

If this is useless or leading down a more solid evidence, that is up to them to decide.[break][break]

[break][break]

WHERE AND HOW?

LOCATIONS AND CLUES

To uncover a CLUE, it must be investigated so many times. The amount is listed in 0/0 format, reading times investigated/needed investigations.
Investigation carries over between rounds. You can investigate the same clue multiple times if it's available.
You can only investigate once per round.
Certain Clues being uncovered could unlock new places to search!
You have a limited amount of time to search, so it is advised to work together OOC to find out where you might need to look next!
[break][break]

Tea Room
[break][break]
A stately room filled with bookshelves and a plush chairs. It looks like a wreck in here, with various liquids and stains on the once pristine floor. This is where the body was discovered.[break][break]
There is a strange whimpering under the table... 1/1 CLUE UNCOVERED![break]
The decorations might provide insight. 2/2 CLUE UNCOVERED![break]
The stains on the floor are suspicious and sticky. 3/3 CLUE UNCOVERED![break]
A teacup lays broken in pieces. 2/3 [break][break]

Hallway
[break][break]
The connecting hallway between all the points of interest. While it seems very plain, someone with keen eyes might be able to sniff out more.[break][break]
Something smells really bad out here. 2/2 CLUE UNCOVERED![break]
The table here is a skewed. 0/2 [break]
The rug by the door feels loose. 1/3 [break]
Search for the hidden entrance. 0/5 [break][break]

Kitchen
[break][break]
A large kitchen loaded down with all the most modern appliances. Grace works in here as the personal chef of the manor. It's connected to the greenhouse through a special backdoor.[break][break]
What's that on the oven's hood? 1/1 CLUE UNCOVERED![break]
Maybe some personal effects of Grace's are in here. 2/2 CLUE UNCOVERED![break]
This spice rack is off somehow. 3/3 CLUE UNCOVERED![break]
The only place left to look is the pantry. 0/2 [break]
The cleaning closet door is cracked. 4/4 CLUE UNCOVERED![break][break]

Greenhouse
[break][break]
A large greenhouse connected to the kitchen. It has a few flowers but mostly seems full of fresh veggies and fruits. Walter works out here as the Gardener.[break][break]
Above the door is...? 1/1 CLUE UNCOVERED![break]
Maybe some personal effects of Walter's are in here. 2/2 CLUE UNCOVERED![break]
You can hear the occasional, muffled ding. 1/3 [break]
Maybe the plants are hiding clues. 4/5 [break]
Do the tools seem off to you? 2/4 [break][break]

Andrew's Bedroom
[break][break]
Andrew, the son of the victim, claims he was in his room all night. Maybe peeking around in his room could prove if that was true or not.[break][break]
Something's asleep on his bed. 1/1 CLUE UNCOVERED![break]
Going through Andrew's things might help. 2/2 CLUE UNCOVERED![break]
Searching the dresser couldn't hurt. 0/3 [break]
There are boxes hidden in the back of the closet. 2/4 [break][break]

Gym
[break][break]
The personal in-home Gym of Andrew. Andrew works in here as his personal trainer. It's filled with typical gym equipment. Oddly enough, it looks like a TM/TR case is stored in here as well.[break][break]
What's that in the corner? 1/1 CLUE UNCOVERED![break]
Maybe Andrea left some of her things in here. 2/2 CLUE UNCOVERED![break]
Why not look at the TM case? 3/3 CLUE UNCOVERED![break]
Something is weird about the pile of TMs on the floor. 2/5[break]
Ugh, a pile of sweaty gym clothes! 0/5 [break][break]

Cillian stares at howard slayte, nonplussed.[break][break]

"I think you've done enough."[break][break]

Perhaps this is what drives the man away. Perhaps it's the withering stare Cillian offers alongside his dry remark. Either way, Howard bolts from the room as if someone had shoved a live wire up his ass, and Cil's not bothered about it.[break][break]

Ambrose Hendrix leaves, too, and Cillian finally feels like he can relax.[break][break]

"If we look at it that way," Cillian says, in response to hazel albrecht, "everything is a potential red herring. We've already started cleaning up the mess... guess the best we can do is finish up."[break][break]

He slots a few more into their respective spaces, frowning as he realizes something.[break][break]

"These are TRs. So the missing one's a one-use deal."[break][break]

Adding that to the broken lock, this was either a clue or an attempt to frame someone.

MURDER AT MAPLE MANOR

POSTED ON Oct 13, 2023 23:10:08 GMT

[nospaces]

[attr="class","elisetest3"]

[attr="class","body"]

Finishing the inspection of the stain would give a clue that this was from tea laced with poison. The stain itself was also far away from where the old woman fell, so it probably wasn't what made Madam Peacock lose her life. While Remiel Calcifet and Yuina Higashi were working on the other clue, Grigori Sokolov gives his introduction to her, Yuina, and Remiel. “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Grigori. My name is Elise Calcifet.” Her reply to the dark-haired man came with a little bow of her head and her hand to her chest where she acted in a very ladylike attitude fitting of her status as Galarian royalty.[break][break]

Noting that her cousin’s connection to Zekrom was severed in the distortion, she gives a nod to the other three people in the room. “I will take my leave to try helping in investigating the hallway for a little while, so I trust my cousin and you two to stay in getting more clues.” The dark magenta haired princess said before walking out through the tea room’s door and going down to the hallway. [break][break]

She finds two men and one of them who the familiar howard slayte doing their surveying of the hallway for clues. “Hello Howard, I did not expect to see you here, but it is good to see you again. I did find that the stain in the tea room was tea laced with poison, but I did not think it was the actual cause of death given that it was far away from where Madam Peacock fell.” After she speaks to the archaelogist, Elise gets to doing her investigating in searching for the hidden entrance.

[attr="class","fakebq"]

[attr=class","body"]

[attr="class","text"]

the kitchen had turned out to be even livelier than mika thought. after sorting out grace's things, she glances up, and speaks to the others in the room once some of the chaos surrounding initial discoveries subsides. "i thought you looked familiar," mika says to Michael Navidson , a small smile on her face. she might not know everyone there is to know, but she tries to remember the league affiliates to the best of her ability. the sherriff and gym leader of dewford town is a hard one to miss, after all. "i'm mika, a ranger. nice to meet you, all of you." [break][break]

it's a general greeting given out to those in the kitchen. though mika still takes the time to mouth out the last name of Hyakkaryōran Tsubaki with her, quietly enthusiastic despite the fact that she can pronounce the other's surname just fine. and she spares a laugh at the spirited words of Isaac Merlo , grateful that he'd been kind enough to approach her, at all. (there is a nervousness to Eris Halla that mika not only understands, but sympathizes with. she tries not to make it any harder on the younger girl than she has to.) [break][break]

but they return to their discovery soon enough. she knows more about grace (her typing), and has discovered some personal things that suggest a deeper history behind the facade. that seems to be grace in the old photo, but as for the other figure in the picture and their significance to the current day problem, mika doesn't yet know. she simply reports her findings to the authorities, availing the information to anyone else that wishes to know. [break][break]

then the commotion in the hallway draws her attention, and mika drifts from the kitchen to the connecting space outside. there, several figures are already present, but among them, the only one that mika immediately recognizes is their fellow ranger Elise Calcifet . she nods at her in greeting, polite, before saying, "seems like you could use some help." and feeling satisfied with their previous task in the kitchen just now, mika gets right to work in the hallway, instead.

Robin raised a brow at mint frost 's kitchen knife, but she supposed it wasn't a bad idea to be armed if there was a killer on the loose and they were all without their pokemon. She probably should have gathered some supplies herself considering how sideways the situation could've gone, but she'd attached herself immediately to the mystery at hand.

She shrugged at Adelaide Whiteley 's question. "I saw a lot of movement in the kitchen when I returned that Ferrothorn, but I was moving too quickly to see how it was shaking out. More people are interested in the kitchen than the greenhouse, though." Robin was certain, regardless, that there was something to find here, something key. Her dream couldn't have been total nonsense.

All they seemed to be uncovering, however, were cleaning supplies. "This looks so suspicious." She held up a bottle of chemical cleaner up to the light of the greenhouse to better examine the color of the chemical inside, but she had so little experience cleaning that she was pulling a blank. Being on the road all the time made it unnecessary to clean a room or house. "I hope there isn't any blood on this stuff..." She poked at a cleaning rag curiously underneath the plants. She realized, finally, that gloves would've been an excellent call.

There were just so many things that were odd here, not the least of which that the shattered teacup seemed to be a little too far away from the Madam's body or the stain that Elise Calcifet was looking at. There was something on the broken pieces of the teacup though, and while there was definitely some clatter and chatter going on out in the hallway, Yuina wasn't convinced that she could leave just yet.[break]
"Yeah, go ahead Elise, we'll be right out there, I'm just sure that there's something up with these pieces...," Yuina returned, encouraging Elise to go on with the investigation and she would follow as soon as she could figure out what was on the teacup...

MURDER AT MAPLE MANOR

Just here alone.

... Huh.

Gwyar sorted through the box of letters shamelessly, tipping a brow. Well, wasn't this...

"Extremely suspicious." The man intoned, casually wrenching one of the letters open. "Best we look through everything, lest we miss some damning evidence!"

No shame here.

[attr="class","textbox"]Isaac's eyes widened as he saw just what Hyakkaryōran Tsubaki was using his poor, innocent cooking advice on. "Oh, you're despicable," he said. It was almost worst that a genuinely delicious smelling curry powder was being sacrificed on such an abomination. At least if it was a bad spice blend, there would be no harm, no foul.[break][break]

He'd pour one out for Michael Navidson when they went back to his gym.[break][break]

It was the most horrible smelling thing Isaac had ever set his nose on. Or, at least, it was. A contender for the throne came hot on its heels, something twisted and rancid that left Isaac's face wrinkling up in agony. "Wait, wait. Hold on. Something just outdid you," he muttered, casting a glance out towards the hallway. "Yeah. No. I'm not gonna trust some random-ass rancid smell that just popped in outta nowhere. We're getting to the bottom of this."[break][break]

Yes, poor Tsubaki just got deputized. By a deputy. Is there even a term for the deputy of a deputy of a deputy? If there was, were you to open that page up in the dictionary, you'd see a picture of Tsubaki.[break][break]

Luckily, being right by a spice cabinet meant one's nose was already primed, trained, and ready to go. If this hallway thought it had any ugly secrets to hide, it would prove no match for the Ultra Kitchen Recon Squad!

Fight or flight mode says that she might just throw hands, but a soft cooing gets her to connect back with reality just seconds before she yeets the poor Vivillon away.[break][break]

"What were you doing in there?" She murmurs, absentmindedly wiping her greased up fingers on a spare kitchen cloth before offering her arm up for the bug to rest upon. "Isaac... Isaac?"[break][break]

Oh, did he leave the room already? All at once, she can feel the nerves kicking right back into high gear.[break][break]

Then again, she could be dealing with one of the killer's pokemon? A frown tugs at her lips as she begins to waddle off, faint black fingerprints left on the doorway as she touches it when she passes through. It's just a bit of a walk, she doesn't have to get anywhere near the foyer where Walsh was. In fact, there's an officer right in the hallway that she (very anxiously) passes the Vivillon onto, avoiding eye contact as she quickly steps away -[break][break]

MURDER AT MAPLE MANOR

POSTED ON Oct 18, 2023 0:21:06 GMT

As the storm reached its peak, so did Josh's distraction. It was not often that thunderstorms grew to be so intense. These were the kinds of storms associated with deities whose dominions were lightning. Staring out toward the black, lightning-filled skies, his mind wandered toward the Galar Memory once more, the day he got to be the hero of his dreams.

Shaking his head, he cleared his throat loudly. There was no time to be distracted - they had a job to to. "Hey ollie morales , are you almost done with these boxes?" Josh asked the Head Ranger. "I'm going to put the rest of this stack on the end of the bed, so it's easier for us to go through them." Once he was done with his share of the heavy lifting, he began rummaging through them one at a time. "There's a lot of letters addressed from the same person. If you see any more, hand them to me, okay? I want to keep them all in one place."

[attr="class","star2tsu"]The strange, vibrant purple of the cinnamon makes her do a double-take. She'd recognize that color anywhere. She quickly slaps the sandwich onto the floor before Michael Navidson can take a big bite of poison powder, letting him be mad at her if he wants. Better that than he poison himself.[break][break]

... Although it almost seems he would've either way, with that medley of flavors. [break][break]

"Me!?" Tsubaki shoots back at Isaac Merlo , eager to distract from the sudden spiking of Navy's darling sandwich onto the dirty floor of the kitchen. "You're the guy dumping 'mystery' everywhere, aren't you?"[break][break]

She's prickly, like a rose with thorns. But she brushes it off quickly enough. Merlo's great at finding his way out of a volcano, maybe, but he just can't appreciate art when he sees it. She'll have to enlighten him at some point.[break][break]

She glances over at Eris Halla , with a Vivillon riding atop her head.[break][break]

"... Any chance those scales are poisonous, miss?" She asks the bug pokemon casually, not mentioning how strange it is that there's a pokemon in the hood of the stove, but before it can answer it's carted away by Eris and Isaac into the hallway where some commotion besets them. [break][break]

"Another body...?"[break][break]

Tsubaki looks to Navy quickly, before she runs toward the hall. In the crowd and the commotion, though, she trips and falls toward a table, using it to brace herself. [break][break]

Tori had been engrossed in investigating in her own little corner of the gym that she had barely paid any mind to the commotion around her. Instead as she shuffled through Andrea's things some more she finds out it's pretty much a dead in. Nothing really of noteworthy here in the gym bag. [break][break]

When her hands managed to touch something squishy, soft, and wet, she'd almost had enough and called it quits there. Resisting the urge to chuck the bag of grief across the room. Upon closer inspection however she realized it was just a squished orange. However, the orange wasn't the interesting part, but rather the contents buried beneath. [break][break]

After she was finishing rummaging around Andrea's bag she found herself sure of one thing only, Andrea's typing was FIGHTING. With a heavy grunt she pulled herself to her feet just to take note of the mess that lied further in the room. Where Cil had once been pouring over the TM case, now laid a strewn out mess. [break][break]

Victoria approached slowly this time, still rubbing her aching jaw from where Cillian had struck her earlier. Considered it a lesson learned the hard way. She wouldn't hastily approach him again. "I didn't find much in my corner of the room." she spoke to announce her presence before she approached both Cil and hazel albrecht, catching the tail end of their conversation.[break][break]

Bending down to hand them a TR that had rolled near her boot. "Figured out Andrea's typing, dunno if that would be of help of narrowing down the list of potential suspects regarding the missing TR." She said as she stood back to her feet. "She's a FIGHTING type." she said as she crossed her arms across her chest once the last of the spilled TR's was collected.

Hazel remains silent as Cillian Quinn reprimands the other man. He only watches with mute curiosity to see what Howard might do, but he seems to take the cue and scrams not long after. He lets out a short breath, amused and exasperated all in one. "What a mess." It's not the pile of TMs and TRs he's referring to, though he supposes that those don't help matters much either.[break][break]

"Fair point," he remarks, continuing to stack the mess of tms into neat piles. Sorting them by types so that they can be returned to the shelf with quicker ease. The storm outside lashes with angry fury. As if trying to hasten them to figure it all out sooner rather than later.[break][break]

He eyes the empty spot, "That has to be important, right? Maybe we should have checked that breloom's stats before we handed it over." That only makes sense, right? That the pokemon hiding there was taught the mystery move?[break][break]

Hazel glances over his shoulder at Victoria Beckett as she approaches them, less subtly than the first time. He takes the offered TM and carefully slots it back into place. "Maybe this is a fighting move then," he muses as his brows furrow. Again, he tapes the empty space. "Or maybe it's the opposite?"

“Pleasure’s all mine. When we get out of here, you should come down to Dewford. I need all the help from the rangers I can get. Up to my eyeballs in--- hey!” Navy scoffs incredulously when Tsubaki smacks his sandwich out of his hand. At the apex of the storm, while the wind howls and thunder cries, his stomach growls. He’d been craving a pizza after noah faber showed him a good spot in town.[break][break]
“Gimme a warning next time, Baki. Guy’s gotta keep his stre-” And, again, he is interrupted. So far, he has been treating this little excursion into the distortion with a certain hands-off lightness. A man cannot survive long in this war-torn region without seeing a few strange occurrences. Eris is there, Isaac too. Cillian, Kouji, Howard, even the crown prince of Galar. With so many powerful, connected people, he can afford to let the others have their fun.[break][break]
If this proves to be something deeper, if the Dark Triad rears their head or a legendary monster attacks, he will fight. He’ll be the first one to march until hell.[break][break]
Which is why, when Eris screams out for him, he rushes out. He has the make of an animal protecting its young from a predator.[break][break]
“A second body? Where?”

Kouji was ready to check out the other areas, the clues were beginning to come together, but they weren’t all there yet. The strange outlines, the strange stain, and that awkward sign just there. Kouji knew with that, maybe there was something more in this hallway. ”Howard, you got anything? Looks like wine…ain’t browned enough to blood.” But it wasn’t quite the color of wine either. There was that smell, it smelled like death and then there was the sound of that scream…He didn’t want to have to tell that kid to shut up but…
[break][break]
”Keep it down. Not like you ain’t seen a bunch anyway.”
[break][break]
It was callous, but that was the way he acted towards her as he looked over the surroundings, there had to be something else here, right?
[break][break]
”There might even be something up underneath, out of form…Plank?” He didn’t know if there were more to it, but the table was completely off, so he inspected it…Only to see someone else crash into it, catching themself…
[break][break]
”The table’s even more skewed now huh…” So instead, he grabbed it by the legs, almost sweeping it out from under Tsubaki to explore it properly, and tilting it upwards from the leg to get a better look at it from up close.

NOTES

✚ Kouji pokes about things, tells Eris to stop being a baby about bodies, carries on talking shop.
✚ Explores the skewed table.
