FOURTH INVESTIGATION

[bathymetric]

Friday morning and, well, you all wake up hungry, I'm sure. Even the vending machine isn't dropping food anymore, apart from sticks of butter, and one cannot live on that for very long. Another week has passed on this ship, and despite the fun communal activity of Accidentally Summoning Calypso, Goddess of the Sea last night, there's a tension in the air that cannot be dispelled or explained by the presence of some supernatural entity.

But hey, relax! The hallway outside your rooms is clear, at least! Most of you are around! And look, there's breakfast in the good ol' Jimmy Buffet!

... Wait, breakfast in the buffet? But that would mean...

PIANO LOUNGE

[bathymetric]

[ It's nine AM on a Friday, regular crowd shuffles in... ]

[dokkalfheimr]

[She said she was going to look, and she's going to. I'm here for gore, mods, what state is Sara's body in?]

JUST GONNA MOVE THIS OVER TO BE AN ASSISTANT

[thisaroma]

[ Look, he's going to be helpful this time!! ]

I can help if you don't want to touch her, or...

[ You know. You wear nice dresses and this is kind of gross. ]

[dokkalfheimr]

[This is so much...]

...I can check the rest of the room if you and Data handle the...Sara.

[Maybe if we delegate tasks it'll go smoother? Mods I'm so sorry.]

[ltcommandroid]

I can do that. It does not bother me.

[YEAH RIP TO US AND THE MODS AND ALSO SARA AND ALBEDO I GUESS]

[dokkalfheimr]

Let Decus help you. The more eyes on it, the better.

[ltcommandroid]

...of course. If you are alright with it, Decus.

[thisaroma]

[ ALL RIGHT D-TEAM LET'S GO ]

[thisaroma]

Yeah, that's fine too.

[ i'm sorry this is what happens when we all comment at the exact same time lmfao ]

[ltcommandroid]

[Okay, well, Risotto has Albedo so let's just head back here. What the fuck is up with Sara?]

cw gore

[bathymetric]

[ Well, the closest thing you can probably relate it to, Data, is a wild animal attack? Her torso has been torn open, and her organs are... well, as I alluded to earlier, pretty much gone. Can't warn you about stepping on a kidney if there are no kidneys left on the scene, so to speak. ]

cw gore

[thisaroma]

[ Well, at least he's seen a shit ton of monster attacks...!!!

What can they tell about how she was torn open? Does it actually have that more jagged look like something from claws or teeth as opposed to a blade? ]

cw gore

[bathymetric]

[ Yes, actually! There are definite signs of damage from teeth and claws. ]

[ltcommandroid]

That is odd...

[It's good Decus is here, because this is the kind of thing that Data actually doesn't see all that often!

Does the attack look like it was targeted, or are there just kinda teeth and claw marks all over the place here?]

[sivard]

[So once again Zaveid can't really help with the... bodies. But he does want to look and see what's going on with the rest of the room.]

[bathymetric]

[ For one thing, there are some large blade marks on the walls here and there. ]

[sivard]

[...well that's a thing. Can he tell about how high up they are? And how deep?]

[bathymetric]

[ Decently deep? And mostly around chest height on your average person - they're a little too scattered to tell too much accurately. ]

[sivard]

[Welp.

That doesn't help rule anything out. Anything else off about the blade marks?]

[dokkalfheimr]

[Just...likewise going to be checking the room itself, if there's anything not covered by Zaveid. Otherwise she'll be keeping an eye on Sara's...that through some sense of horrible bile fascination.]

[bathymetric]

[ So! While you're looking around at the rest of the room, there's something near Sara's body. ]

[dokkalfheimr]

[...She doesn't foresee that being excellent, because nothing in this room is excellent.

But! Let's go check out what's over here. What sort of thing is she looking at?]

[bathymetric]

[ Actually, as far as this room goes? This isn't so bad.

It's just a small scrap of white fabric. ]

[dokkalfheimr]

[White fabric...

Does it feel like any particular sort of fabric, or just kind of generic? She's not a master at this sort of thing, there's just a difference between like. Silk and velvet and tulle. If it's like standard clothing material that isn't fancy like that, she's going to just kinda shrug at it.

Also, is there blood on it?]
