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!

THE POOL

[bathymetric]

[ Fun fact: the world's largest swimming pool is at the San Alfonso Del Mar resort in Santiago, Chile. ]

[oceangirlfriend]

[So Adeline's got the body out of the pool. Time for the most basic check here-any signs that Carmen drowned?]

[bathymetric]

[ You know? Not really, actually!

At least the broken neck might give a clue why. ]

cw: body horror mention

[oceangirlfriend]

[Oh boy. Does she have any other visible injuries? Adeline is going to check wherever she can without invading her privacy too much. Also, she's going to do a somewhat grosser check-is there any skin sloughing like the kind that happens if you leave a corpse in the water for a long time?]

[bathymetric]

[ There's no real indication the body has been in water for an overly-long time?

That said, there is some bruising on her chest. ]

[oceangirlfriend]

[Well, that's something good, at least. Does the bruising have any particular shape that might suggest what caused it?]

[bathymetric]

[ Maybe some kinda rounded and blunt object? ]

[oceangirlfriend]

[Alright, so probably not someone's fist...going back to her neck, do the bruises suggest it was grabbed and snapped or that she hit it on something?]

[bathymetric]

[ Difficult to tell, honestly, but there aren't any handprints or anything up there. ]

[dokkalfheimr]

[Just to verify while Freyja is up here in this area, is there anything else amiss here or is it all body investigation?]

[bathymetric]

[ Well, there's something over by the side of the pool! ]

...she'll let someone that isn't michalis look at it, sorry

[dokkalfheimr]

[Oh...? She'll take a brief moment to figure herself out, to make herself actually approach the pool, and she'll go look at...whatever it is. What do we have here?]

for just one moment....... he was Here

[bathymetric]

[ Well, next to the pool, laid out, is um.

A banana peel. ]

[dokkalfheimr]

[...this is questionable.

How, um. How intact is it looking?]

[bathymetric]

[ Honestly? Fully intact. ]

[dokkalfheimr]

[...Someone...tried it? This sure is a thing that she found. Presumably it wouldn't be intact if someone reenacted a bizarre vaudeville comedy act so... Huh.

Aaaaand I see the clear sign so I will leave you be!]

[sharddrive]

[Yeah, he gave up interrogating the vending machines after the announcement, so here he is.]

Oh.

[Okay. So. What's up here? Besides the obvious.]

[bathymetric]

[ There's something next to the pool he could take a look at! ]

[sharddrive]

[Sure, maybe he'll be lucky and it won't be something horrible.]

[bathymetric]

[ It's a stylish red coat! Folded up nicely. ]

[sharddrive]

[Well that's fine. It's fine.]

[He'll just pick that up. Anything off about it, as he inspects it quietly?]

[bathymetric]

[ A couple things! First off, there's some light tearing around the chest. ]

[sharddrive]

[That's probably fine! He's gonna stick a couple fingers through that and kind of. Wiggle them a little.]

[If he checks the pockets does he find anything? Convenient note naming the killer, maybe?]

[bathymetric]

[ Nope! He actually doesn't find anything - her device isn't here. ]
