FIRST INVESTIGATION

[bathymetric]

To say this week has been intense is, generally, an understatement. Friday dawns like any other day. Some of you may have guessed that something like this would happen. It's not a difficult assumption to make, considering what's at stake. Mayor Fontaine has come forward with clear intent, and maybe expecting twenty-five people to stay strong against it is too much. Or maybe not! You never know!

...For those of you not entirely convinced, however, those visible traces of blood in the elevator might speak differently.

[Brett is gonna walk the fuck away from the body to take a minute, so - is there anything out here that's not body-adjacent to look at?]

[bathymetric]

[ You've got a little something, but it probably won't make you feel any more at ease.

Let's talk spatial awareness real quick. So! Rather close to the pond is a wall of decorative uneven rocks. Just a bunch of stones jutting out, doing no one any good. Especially not whatever poor soul left a troubling amount of blood on them. ]

Oh there's a lot of blood over here...

[Brett is going to sit down on the ground in a third, different spot in the garden!!!]

[bathymetric]

[ Sorry Brett. This isn't a great place for the squeamish. ]

[LET'S SEE THAT BLOOD THEN

are we talking splatters or the like, does it trail off somewhere...what's up wit it]

[bathymetric]

[ It's definitely not splatter. More like a stain. It's all centralized in the same area, perhaps a little dripping down onto the tile beneath. The most important thing to note is there's a fair bit of it. ]

[dullshooter]

[Ok no wonder Brett needed a time out.

Anything happen to be stuck in the blood? Any hair or…other bits. Maybe a handy confession note on behalf of the killer.]

[bathymetric]

[ Alas, no confession to be found. A little hair, though just a little. It's pretty dyed red, but if you try and wash it off and compare? It's pretty clearly Adaman's. ]

[dullshooter]

[It’s good that he had such a distinctive hair colour.

Anything else of note here?]

[bathymetric]

[ Nope, just the shattered peace of a place you all seemed to like! ]

[dullshooter]

[The worst thing the killer did was ruin the hangout spot.]

[inaclearing]

[yeah he's figuring that out]
