✽ The silence breaks at six to welcome in another crisp Wednesday morning. The sun is shining, the birds are singing, and there's a surprise waiting for anyone who decides to sludge through the snow to inspect the area in front of the auditorium outside. There's a deep indentation in the snow, just large enough for a frozen, charred body to fit in.
✽ There are a total of three bodies to find. All three bodies have now been found.

Character(s): Nagito Komaeda
Location/body: Teacher's lounge
Action: He'll be looking over VP's desk to see if she has a PDA, cellphone or something. I was only curious since the students turned teachers have PDAs, so maybe she has one too? If it's not on or inside her desk, does he have to dig up her body, because he will.

[adsum]

stop why is he so insane

STOPPP MAYBE THERE'S SUMN IN HER NOTES APP

[adsum]

okay, i checked with ori on this: she doesn't carry around a pda but she has a cell phone, it's out of power in her pocket bc she didn't get to go home and charge it but once it's charged and powered up they get to solve one of those 3x3 matrix dot unlocking things whatever it's called, they have to solve that first and then i'll tell you what's inside.

guess him and ranger are going graverobbing i'm sick

[commences]

we're going graverobbing! grab your tools! they're about to desecrate everything noah and kaede did. when they go over there, ranger can have the phone to plug up, and then him and komaeda can try and crack the code.

UGH I HATE THEY DO THIS

[adsum]

alright, I'll take that 19

They crack the code and unlock the phone, this is her wallpaper and it's like a 1995 flip phone so there's nothing fancy on it, her text messages are filled with spam mail and it looks like she has a lot of missed calls that she rarely returns, and maybe she has a notes app but all that's written in there is:

Apple cider vinegar
Wheaties
Eggs
Sewing kit
Rice pudding

4565
3250
5571
5.2
114/78
7/22

aka a shopping list and numbers I copied off my own phone but can't for the life of me remember what they're for, 114/78 is a blood pressure reading, that's all I've got, I'd love any insight actually

There's nothing about meeting with Maya or anything else relevant to this investigation

[commences]

where's bunnys cap where it said komaeda did nothing useful at murder scenes

we're telling the group that vp had a message from maya to talk abt sumn in the upcoming month

ok ranger and komaeda will get back to you with some insight

[rearranger]

which one

[commences]

stop it doesn't matter I want drama

[rearranger]

meanwhile komaeda coming back to the meeting like:

[rearranger]

HELP HER WALLPAPER IS SO CUTE... not that we keep killing all the cute npcs, and then these sickos dug up a body and ranger brute forced his way into her phone for a shopping list and some numbers. they'd better at last re-bury the body or i'll kill both of them myself

one of those is a date, the rest look like pins or high level math to me, if it were me it'd be the math bc that's 99% of what i put down and forget later thinking future me will understand it

nms got most of it but aanyway are there any familiar names in her contact list, can we at least spam text the counselor or smth

[adsum]

what am I doing in july 2022...

it looks like the nurse is in her contacts list but not the counselor, he doesn't have friends, though there's no messages shared between the vp and the nurse

[rearranger]

me asking myself that question about every number i put down... clasps your hands

NOT HE HAS NO FRIENDS sigh not even giving his coworkers his number... think the counselor is actually me. thank u ori this is a gift

[rearranger]

Okay so coming back to add for nms: Komaeda sniffed the body, and he checked the mouth. Are there any blisters or anything abnormal, and does she smell of anything but dirt?

[adsum]

Her mouth looks normal. There are no blisters, and there is nothing out of the ordinary. It may be slightly frozen though.

She smells like dirt and burnt flesh, so I'm sure it's not a great smell. He will find, however, that the scent of chlorine is still clinging to her beneath all that.

[commences]

hi! so forgive komaeda because dead bodies are free game to him.

- want to know the exact measurement of her burns, so he'll remove her clothes
- what's under her nails, any debris, dirt, etc?
- are there any rips in fabric, and discoloration due to the chlorine, if so... around where?
- how much of her face, hair is gone, or burnt.
- between the fire, and the impact... has she been burned enough for the fire to kill her, or can he tell that it was the impact because it's surprising how much burns the human body can withstand.

easter egg:
- is she rich, does she have a wedding ring, he's going to take that

[adsum]

this is why we're going to bad end

- They're concentrated on her face and chest, but they don't seem to go much lower than that.
- There's probably dirt under there given that she was buried, but he'll also find bits of skin as well if he's looking closely, as though she'd been scratching herself.
- There's probably some holes that were eaten into it when she was burned, but there's none that really stand out aside. There are splotches of discoloration on her clothes, though they're not very large - it looks more like small splashes or drip marks.
- Her entire face is burnt, really her body from the chest up. The burns do appear to be more severe on the front than the back.
- He would be able to tell from the impact. The burns are severe, but it seems unlikely that she would have immediately died from them.
- She does not have a wedding ring or any other jewelry on her, if she were rich she'd quit her job.
