week 8 - investigation

[vicedirector]

seven vices case 8 - investigation ♫ friday On Friday morning, nothing happens. It's 10AM, and there are no blackouts or explosions. There's no blood, no objects out of place, no missing guests. Nada. Zip. Zilch. The monitor in the lobby is silent, and Katerina doesn't seem to have anything to say on the matter. On the most desperate of weeks...could someone have actually not taken the initiative? >Mingle? cast setting

[ And Hanyuu is here, too, jumping out of Roxy's arms once Hinata starts talking. She shuffles over to the side of the lobby, slumping on the floor next to one of the potted plants.

Great. What a good day. ]

[Buddy is equally shocked as to what happened. Death is something she has lived with in her life and only few times can she remember it ever hitting so hard. Where it felt like her hardened heart was ripped out. This is one of those times.

Yet too many she cared for have died in her life, many times right in front of her. She can't breakdown anymore. So instead she walks over to Hanyuu and reaches to rest a hand on the girl's shoulder.]

[ She feels that sentiment, boy does she ever fucking feel it. Too much death in her memory to really break down about it, anymore. But she's tired. She's just tired. ]

...I'm sorry. You were friends with Field-san, weren't you?

[lastgirl]

Something like that. [She isn't sure if she has any friends here. It's hard to tell when she never had friends period.] ...Are you going to be alright?

[aumygoddess]

I'll be fine. [ Said without hesitation. ] But I am worried about the others.

[ Mainly Undyne. And also Hinata. ]

[lastgirl]

...This one will be the same as the last trial. And the killer will be hard to find when everyone has the same motive.

[To save someone they love. Even with Clover's death, can they be judged harshly for their actions?]

Do you want to go rest? I can lead you to your room and stay with you for safety.

[In case someone gets a funny idea about double murder.]

[aumygoddess]

I know. I am surprised that nobody had acted in the morning, but...

[ Of course someone would. There wasn't a single person who didn't negatively react to their hostage.

If it does not inconvenience you.

[lastgirl]

It doesn't.

[And it's curious why. Maybe someone panicked at the 12th hour, afraid of what was going to happen with no one dead, and decided to take advantage of the moment.

She gets up and takes Hanyuu's hand in hers, pulling the girl up to her feet without asking. What are manners, 'cause Buddy doesn't have them.]

Let's go. We'll worry about the trial tomorrow.
