week 1 - investigation

[vicedirector]

seven vices case 1 - investigation ♫ friday On Friday morning, time shifts. It's a strange, twisting feeling reverberating throughout all in the town, even able to be felt by those still asleep, warping their dreams. Everyone's sense of time is back to normal, and the large grandfather clock in the lobby is gone. Which, here, can only mean the mastermind had a change of heart--or someone is dead. >Investigate? cast setting

[Meanwhile Hinata's moving straight to the doctors offices, checking against his notepad from day 1 to see if anything's missing or out of place in those rooms. He's doing a poor job of escorting mom, really. A bad son.]

[sisumama]

[IT'S OKAY, SON. Because once mother is done looking to see if anything dangerous is missing, she's back to hover behind him. You can't escape Sisuca for long! ...Funny, she doesn't feel too relieved, but.]

Oh, here you are! I turn my back for one second and you've already wandered off.

[She's teasing. Probably.]

[vicedirector]

[ As opposed to the exam rooms, there is a lot more missing from the offices. Again, you'd need to check against the inventory, but first looking in the tool drawer will net you minus one pair of trauma shears. ]

[hopefragment]

Hey... there were a pair of weirdly-shaped scissors in here, weren't there?

[What are trauma shears, SHSL Nurse he is not.]

Was anything missing from the exam rooms?

[sisumama]

There were. I didn't recognize them, but I can't forget the shape so easily.

[And any second there's going to be a murder announcement, right. They'll hear it.]

A pair of those rubber gloves were missing. I almost didn't notice, but...it's true.

[vicedirector]

[ THAT ANNOUNCEMENT SURE JUST HAPPENED ]

[hopefragment]

Shit-!

[For a moment, Hinata looks absolutely terrified at the sound of the announcement.]

C'mon, we have to keep looking. If there's two things missing already... that can't be a coincidence. Three people must have found the body already, so... it's up to us to find as much evidence as we can before time runs out.

[Going to leave the drawers for now and look through the rest of the office. Anything else?]

[vicedirector]

[ Yep.

All in all, they're now missing one bottle of liquid benadryl, one bottle of morphine, one pack of cough drops, and one syringe, too. ]

[sisumama]

Oh, no...

[Sisuca's entire body deflates for a moment at the announcement. It's uncharacteristic of her to fall so quiet, so still, so sullen.

But deep down, she knew this would happen. She's going to pull Hinata into a tight hug before they continue searching.]

You're so brave! But right! We'll find everything.

[She probably needs the hug more than he does, but once it's over she'll be moving on.]

[hopefragment]

Wha- hey! It's not bravery, it just has to be done!

[He doesn't protest the hug that much, just kind of awkwardly patting her back. It's nice to console a girl?? But they don't have time for this, so he's going to do his best to extricate himself quickly.

He's marking it all down against his list-! And looking increasingly pale as he does so.]

Benadryl, morphine, cough drops? And a syringe. [He sounds confused because one of those things doesn't seem to match the others, but alright.

Just going to give the place one more look-over for anything else that might have disappeared.]

[vicedirector]

[ Everything else is in order. ]
