FIRST INVESTIGATION

[faentasy]

INVESTIGATION I

Good Morning. Did you sleep well? It certainly feels like you have, perhaps too well, even for those who don't normally sleep. Maybe that's to be expected in this fairy tale, maybe it was only a matter of time.

Regardless, rise and get ready for your day, and keep your eyes to the sky. For who knows if someone fell to temptation?

ANNOUNCEMENT

[begrimed]

[ A melody rings out just like the first evening, and the voice of Hamelin can be heard throughout Aira Niluc, wherever you happen to be. ]

Ahahahaha, now we're really getting started!!!! I have to know, was it the party that really got everyone into a killing mood? You don't need to answer that!

Onto business: Samidare Asahina is dead. So here's how it's gonna go. You have a few hours to poke around and be the best lil' detectives you can be! If you don't want to? I'm not gonna force you, but either way we're meeting for trial afterwards. How else would we decide who gets to meet the pointed blade of justice?

I'll call for you when time's up, just follow the sounds of my pipe like good lil' sheep!

BODY REPORT

Oh, and there's a gift for you at the fountain if you want it!

[ On the benches surrounding the fountain, fairies set down a folder filled with information that might come in handy. ]

Victim: Samidare Asahina
Location: Mansion Rooftop, Residential Area
Estimated Time of Death: 11:30 PM

[I wish to beat this man with my fists.]

[mearry]

[ wow! big fucking mood! ]

[incompletely]

[ He doesn’t believe it when he hears it — not at first. But the realization that Sami — who had trusted him with something so personal the other day — is gone, starts to sink in. To say nothing of how horrifying it is, knowing that someone finally acted on this.

Yeah, for all that talk about preventing a murder, they couldn’t even protect one of the brightest people here. Sami really did shine amidst all the darkness. How someone could be so cruel really is beyond him. ]

Why...?

[sempiternel]

[ Oh. ]

[mearry]

Samidare…Asahina-san?

[ no way. no way no way no way no way!!!! why would anyone!? ]

Why…?

[mirrite]

[And after he'd been talking with her about the possibility of holding training for the people who don't know how to fight... this is really too cruel.]

[heroicact]

[... Well.

He's moved from the lounge to the palace at this point, a straggler after Rika searching for food by the kitchens; he probably arrived after the barricade was cleared, because today I am awash in meetings and thus he is the useless dandy man he was meant to be. ☆...

The announcement sees him blink his eyes too wide for a moment, not least because he's still not used to these strange foreign names, and seemingly just doesn't register the identity of their victim for a little while. Once the gears seem to click, after a few stops and starts, is when he finally hides his face behind a hand, a ruffled sleeve; a long, muffled sigh.]

Again... Are we doomed to such choices?

[laytorest]

[Oh.

That certainly puts a stop to breakfast.

It's time to hurry off to the mansion with Suga.]

[goldencave]

[ Jesus Christ, how did he sleep through breakfast...? Norton's not usually that heavy a sleeper...

... Not that he's paying attention to that. Hamelin's little wake-up call has Norton shaken up.

There are people who actually believe this guy. ]

[warmthbringer]

[ Hamelin's voice isn't a pleasant surprise, but when it registers what he's saying... Riku freezes in place, eyes wide. He doesn't want to believe Hamelin. He doesn't want to believe that someone would hurt her, when she'd been nothing but nice... ]

Why-- Why her?!
