FIRST INVESTIGATION

[bathymetric]

Friday, the day The Captain set for your murder deadline, arrives without much fanfare. There are no trumpets, you aren't woken up by any kind of monologue or announcement... dawn simply arrives. Wonder what that means. Maybe yet another of The Captain's plans has fallen through.

The hallway outside of your rooms seems free and clear of anything suspicious, but... something tells you it might be a good idea to check farther afield. Happy investigating, passengers!

[It's morning, which means it's time to stare listlessly at some food before choosing not to eat anything. Nevermind the sense of impending doom hanging overhead. Time to make his way to the buffet.]

[Sara's venturing towards the Party Zone, still lugging Emily around with her. What's going on in here?]

[oceangirlfriend]

[Hmm...breakfast or a swim first? The whole "don't swim on a full stomach" thing is a myth, but Adeline doesn't feel that hungry yet. So she'll be heading for the pool.]

[paucipan]

[Ugh, what a morning this'll be. But at least for now it seems like nothing is explicitly wrong.

So, Plumeria's just gonna go off towards the gym to get a bit of a walk in. Surely nothing bad'll happen here???]

[Well, Data's not exactly the greatest at picking up vibes...which means that he's just gonna be waking up at the exact start of "morning", as per usual, and heading to the buffett buffet. You know, to hang out with people while they eat!]

[Biiiiiig yawn as Flayn comes out of her room, holding her clothes for the day as she makes her way to the bathroom to take a shower and freshen up for the day. Any, uh. Any weird shit going on this way?]

[Reika's just going to drift on over to the library. She needs to find more books to add to her collection for her roommate to throw around.]

[jibunwo]

[Surely today will have no terrible incidents. It was probably fine. So he’d mind his own business and leave room 11 with intent to go to the library, unless anything remarkably strange met him on the way.]

[sharddrive]

[So this means nothing bad happened, right? Can he get to the theater to check on things without being interrupted?]

[bathymetric]

[ After a moment, The Captain's voice pipes up: ]

Hey, passengers! It’s your captain speaking. Great news! Nah, you’re not getting off the ship yet, but hey! Looks like one of you took the plunge! Really made a splash, if you know what I mean. I... look, The Red Herring is dead.

Anyway, I’ll let you all get to searching around, y’know, finding clues and whatnot. You’ll like this; it’s like a puzzle, involving a dead person. Don’t take too long, since Jones will be by later to gather you all up for the main event, kay? Kay. Hop to it!
