Is anyone up at this time? If so, you'll notice the power flickers—sorry if you were working on anything and hadn't saved in a while. This goes for the entire school, but it only lasts a few minutes... It's probably nothing to worry about.

04/12 06:00

The sun breaks on another beautiful day at Yogen High School. The birds are singing, the weather is clear, and several rooms seem to be a little messed up. While there isn't any immediate smell of blood when one steps into the entrance-way—a relief for those who might remember October's terrible killings—something is definitely... off.

Those who live in Star 4 or who make it their business to visit the cooking room before school starts will probably be the first to know:

It's going to be a long morning.

INVESTIGATION

[adsum]

Please use the following form for investigation. The relevant locations for this event are within the main school building and outside of it. Two freebies were given due to the scope of the investigation, but the rest must be found on their own!

Character(s):
Location/body:
Action: what specifically are they looking for/doing

[mermaidcursed]

Character(s): Nene Yashiro
Location/body: The cooking room
Action: Nene visits it a lot, so she probably is going there for her normal morning routine... so what's immediately befuckled?

[adsum]

Hi Nene! There's a lot befuckled, actually.

For some reason, there's sugar scattered around. It sort of looks like someone tried to clean it up though (there's even a broom and dustpan nearby), so the floor'll just feel kind of crunchy when she goes to check it out.. It's mainly on the counter under the cabinet where the sugar is kept, on the floor around that area, and on the floor near a table with a chair.

Speaking of that table and chair, it looks like someone was having a tea party! There's a tea pot there—the tea cups are probably around somewhere, but she'll have to look for them. As a bonus for Nene, since she's familiar with the cooking room, she'll notice there's a chair missing from here.

Finally, there's an entire bag of sugar dumped into the trash can—including the bag.

[mermaidcursed]

Oh that sure is a lot that's befuckled! So where to start first... Do the tea and sugar smell off at all? Though brief, Nene does have experience with poisons, after all.

[dereban]

Character(s): Himeko Inaba
Location/body: closes my eyes and picks a random location uhhh let's go with library
Action: she lives in the school, this is where she's waking up this time, did anyone fuck this place up and I will have to laugh about it

[adsum]

Nope! The library is nice and safe, absolutely nothing has happened here. Good morning, Inaba.

[dereban]

Cool.

Is the first floor hallway also clear since that's where she's immediately headed after waking up.

[waitingforplayer2]

Character(s): Chiaki Nanami, Joe Tazuna, Alice Yabusame
Location/body: Star 4
Action: Two joggers are here to wake up their third jogger, is Alice gonna wake up today or not. Hey Alice you got two nerds knocking on your door!!

[shimashima]

The current state of Alice will depend on what has taken place in Star 4, but he can be awake to open the door!

[heroicpolonaise]

Character(s): Kaede
Location/body: Music Room
Action: she'd like to get some finger stretchies in the morning

[adsum]

Good morning Kaede! She can get her finger stretchies on no problem, the music room is clear.

[rearranger]

Character(s): Rio Ranger
Location/body: Summoning room
Action: anything going on in here aside from all the blood that was already there?

[adsum]

Haha. Well.

Before he even gets to the summoning room, he'll notice the hallway is a little bit fucked up. Just a bit! There are cracks and impact marks on the walls and floors, as if someone took a massive hammer to them; they start mainly by the generator room. There's some pink shimmery stuff by them, too.

Additionally, there are strange pink stains—round blotches, really—in the area, as well as one foot's worth of pink-stained footprints leading from a pink blotch by the generator room towards the forest exit.

[silentabyss]

Character(s): Noah Ebalon
Location/body: Outside the main school building
Action: Looking for tracks, signs of general... disturbances I guess is the word I want to use? He's just sort of sweeping the perimeter

[adsum]

Well, he'll certainly find something by the basement exit! The one that leads out into the forest. That one.

It seems like there was a pretty intense anime fight here. Snapped branches, broken trees, tiny impact craters on the ground, etc. The same pink dust and splotches from the basement hallway too—definitely seems like something went on here for a hot minute.

There also seems to be something a little ways off from the basement exit, too... Will he check it out?

[socialize]

Character(s): Maple
Location/body: Workshop
Action: Anything amiss in here generally? Add doko...

[adsum]

Maple... How familiar is she with the workshop, for starters? Because at first glance, it doesn't really seem like anything is wrong. There's a few gaps here and there, but if she's used to being in here, she'll probably know what's missing.

[dereban]

Character(s): Himeko Inaba
Location/body: Clock tower
Action: After this checking the clock tower--is there anything on the way there or at the clock tower itself that's off?

[adsum]

There's nothing on the way there and there's nothing in the clock tower!

...Actually, that's important: outside of a few white hairs that might've come off a cat that loves being pet, there's nothing in the clock tower. Kind of like no one ever actually came by here.

That's it for this room!

[notsosou]

Character(s): Shin Tsukimi
Location/body: Student Store, 4/11
Action: guess who is up at this time? Does the power outage affect battery-run devices, like his laptop or PDA?

[adsum]

Nope! Just stuff that's plugged in.

[socialize]

Character(s): Maple & Ranger
Location/body: Add's body
Action: They're here to pick him up so he's not left in the cold :(

After she has a little moment where she gets really sad, Maple will help Ranger in memorizing the scene and the details of the body before scooping any fragmentary evidence or bits into a box for evidence, and scooping up the body bridal style to bring inside.

ADDQUEST

[waitingforplayer2]

Character(s): Nanami & Joe & Alice
Location/body: forest
Action: They got the PSA so they're gonna go the long way around and check the forest around the front & sides of the school.

[adsum]

There's nothing around the front or the sides of the school! But if they end up tracking back to where all that... mess... is going on, they'll notice the destruction goes on a little bit further past the bodies. Will they investigate?

[shimashima]

They will investigate! What can they come across as they follow that destruction trail and inspect it?
