Week 2: Investigation

week 2:

investigation
   ?? DOODZ REMAIN   
Early Friday morning, our heroes awaken to the moon setting, and finally, the freedom to leave the locations they fell asleep in the night before. It's a normal morning... if you ignore the sirens echoing through the city streets.

Police and prinnies have gathered in certain locations. With the sight of heroes giving them hope, they call upon you for help in searching for evidence, that we may all learn what happened on Thursday night.

So what are you waiting for? The investigation is yours.
Welcome, heroes, to your second investigation!

We will be posting top-levels for locations to be searched - one set at 6 PM EST / 3 PM PST and the second at 7 PM EST / 4 PM PST. Each block will run for two hours during which characters can search the locations for evidence related to the events of Thursday night, and each location will have something to find. Please coordinate investigation groups on Discord, as we ask that group threads consist of no more than 2-3 characters.

Once the two hours are up - at 8 PM EST / 5 PM PST for block one and 9 PM EST / 6 PM PST for block two - threads will no longer receive mod tags and the investigation will conclude for the night. Whether you find everything is up to you, but don't worry if you don't! Characters will get the chance to revisit locations tomorrow at trial. At 9 PM EST / 6PM PST, an announcement will go up, confirming the victim(s).

If you have any questions at any time, please let us know by pinging us on Discord!

[ .......... ]

Sorry about that effect.

[ Is he going to have to listen to all of the Bee Movie script as they investigate this place? God help them both.

Anyway. Boy is he glad he got his kitchen shopping in during the week already. Ponta is going to look at the ceiling and the windows - did everyone leave through the door this time? ]

[she has decided she hates the bee movie, actually.]

It's ok. It's fine.

[are these, like, any specific spices? or just assorted spices? is there anything weird about the containers?

i have no idea what is even in the store. are the gnomes okay?]

Just a day of this and you'll get all the Bee content out of your system.

[ 'Just' a day. Help.

Okay, is the damage in the store concentrated in any specific corner, or is the whole place just crushed indiscriminately? Are there any back rooms to check? ]

[HM. significant spices... i see...

she just hums in response, not wanting to share more bee facts.

i assume this is the type of store that has, like, aisles of shelves. has anything rolled under the shelves if she takes a look? or is there anything off about whatever type of rack or shelf is in the store?]

[ Also is the offending pan still anywhere around the wall that has been smashed? And if Ponta goes over there, is anything more noteworthy in the area than elsewhere? ]

[is there anything else on the floor when she retrieves the scissors? like blood on the spot where she found them, for example, or anything like that.

is there a check-out counter? if so, she goes take a look at it.]
bottleking: (c 044)

[personal profile] bottleking 2023-10-06 10:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Yeah, blood is also Ponta's next impulse to check. He's going to be picking up that pan and examining it. Did that only hit the wall or does it have residue of blood or anything else on it? ]

[personal profile] squelching 2023-10-06 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[okay, cool. she's going to collect that torn paper, and i am assuming she can't read it until tomorrow? she can be illiterate.

are there any notebooks or pens/pencils in the check-out counter? like, a source for the torn paper and whatever was used to write on it.

anything else under the counter, or in any drawers or trashbins if there are any? how's the cash register looking?

ALSO, going to backtrack for a second before i forget-- to check under the rest of the shelves real quick, because i noticed the mod tag wording was suspicious right after luna's tag came in... is there anything else under the shelves if she checks all of them and not just the one she found the scissors in?]

[ AND WHILE SAYA IS DOING ALL THIS PRODUCTIVE STUFF, I have but one question: what is mystery object?? ]
squelching: (028)

[personal profile] squelching 2023-10-06 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[PAPER... she grabs both scraps of of paper, then.

is there anything hiding between the pieces of merchandise that are still on the shelves? if any.]
bottleking: (c 062)

[personal profile] bottleking 2023-10-06 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Huh. Hello there, red ball.

Is the red ball stained in any way? What size is it roughly? Is it like... soft like gummy or hard plastic? Does it open like a gashapon ball? ]
squelching: (188)

[personal profile] squelching 2023-10-06 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[oh my god how many scraps of paper are there

adds that to the collection.

is there a storage room? a bathroom? if not, she's just gonna whole ass climb on top of the checkout counter to see if she spots anything on the tops of the shelves or anything weird that they haven't noticed yet, with a higher vantage point.]

[ Meanwhile Ponta is going to pocket the mystery ball and then start rifling through all the kitchenware that is on the floor. He's just kicking it aside to check any spots on the ground that were covered up so far. ]

[truly glad saya is here blissfully unaware of the fact that i am about to put a hit on flurry

she will climb down and join ponta in moving the shit on the floor around, checking for anything that might be buried.]
bottleking: (c 063)

[personal profile] bottleking 2023-10-06 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
... we're gonna have quite a bit of puzzling to do, huh?

[ SO MANY SCRAPS OF PAPER.

Once they've covered the whole floor, Ponta is going to head back to the door to take a good look at it. Is there any damage to it? Anything stuck to the handles or anything like that? ]
squelching: (097)

[personal profile] squelching 2023-10-06 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[yeah! saya has four scraps of paper.

just to confirm, there is nothing else hiding under the mess if she continues pushing the stuff on the floor aside?]
bottleking: (c 019)

[personal profile] bottleking 2023-10-06 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Yup, Ponta's got the one.

And uhhhh we checked below the shelves and on top of the shelves, so is there anything of interest left on the shelves? ]
