SEVENTH INVESTIGATION

[bathymetric]

Friday morning comes as it so often does. The hallways of the ship are still. Things are... surprisingly normal. As normal as they can feel on a cruise ship populated entirely by a few surviving members of your number and whatever the heck The Captain has become.

And on top of that, it's quiet. The voices of your loved ones no longer ring in your ears, gone as suddenly as they came.

But that would mean...

[ Not quite? The consistency is different. ]

[scythegun]

[Hmm... Weird! Different how? Is it "this is poison but a different kind" different or is there something else weird about it?]

[bathymetric]

[ Well, there are no other poisoning symptoms, for one thing! No smell, no discoloring...

The only other thing Off here on his head at all is that his hair is kind of messed up, like it got wet and then dried. ]

[scythegun]

[...So someone faked a poisoning?? Wow, talk about dedication. Fake poison, fake blood... What next??

Well, his hair, apparently. This doesn't look like any sort of natural drying presumably, so what, did someone take a blow dryer to his hair??]

[bathymetric]

[ Nope! It's doing the sort of... stuck together thing hair does when you get it wet and it dries? ]

[scythegun]

[Hmm, weird! Anything else to note about this? Does it seem like anything else got wet in here?]

[bathymetric]

[ Nope! The last thing to note is a couple things are off about his clothes. ]

[scythegun]

[Just to clarify: it was wet with water, probably not anything else, right?

And sure, what's going on with Jasper's clothes? Does he have anything in his pockets??]

[bathymetric]

[ Yup! No sign of any other liquids.

Nothing in his pockets, but also missing? His pendant. ]

[scythegun]

[oh no where is his pendant??????

...unfortunately, Yeager knew nothing about that so uh. I will be sure to note it in my top level and hopefully someone else can point that out so he can confirm it! Or I can just backtag Ran to get that information out there, either/or!!

What else is going on here?]

[bathymetric]

[ His cloak is a little torn up! That's all the evidence here! ]

[scythegun]

[Presumably he can't determine any more than that given the area clear message, but I'll go ahead and double check anyway - is there any indication of how or what tore his cloak up? It it only a small piece missing or is it a lot more than that?]
