THIRD INVESTIGATION

[bathymetric]

This week's promises were a little weird. From a threat, to an opportunity, to... This has been the closest to a full-on bribe Fontaine's gotten. You can't say he doesn't give you taste of what's to come, but is anyone going to take it? Maybe with the group vandalism you all did, feelings are high for sticking it to the man instead of biting at the obvious bait.

Of course, if you try to use the plasmids you'd previously injected, you'll find none of them will work. That's probably not a good sign. Honestly, giving a bunch of people dangerous injectables... What was the Mayor thinking?

Wait. That's the point, isn't it? Better get looking...though you may not have to go far at all.

[well that was easy! are we looking at wounds made with a sword or a pair of vampire fangs or a serrated knife like smileyface might have given us? also where are these stab wounds?

and are there any other injuries as she's getting real up close and personal with jason's body?]

[bathymetric]

[ Three very clean stab wounds from a blade to the chest, no signs of the tearing that would indicate serration. One in the center of his chest, one in his heart, and one more to the side. There are also some small burns on his arms. ]

[huh. she's gonna let aiba check the burns on his arms, on account of it's probably safer that way. it's probably related to the ALL THE FIRE??? who let jason have fire hands.

does the stab wound on his side look like the angle was from the front or the back? also does it look like someone intentionally went for his heart or just sort of managed to get it by stabbing blindly?]

[bathymetric]

[ While the latter is tough to tell, it's notable that these three are the only stab wounds, and they look pretty clean! The two to his chest came at him straight on and the one to his side came in at a bit of a downwards trajectory.

Also, a slight correction, it's near his heart, not through the heart itself. ]

[huh. maybe he killed gooby too with no one else involved—

is there any sign that the plasmids had an adverse effect on jason, beyond the obvious fucked up hands and burns on his arm? she's mostly looking for, like, signs that he was juicing himself up an alarming amount since it was clearly involved.]

[bathymetric]

[ Nah, no signs of that! Looks like the Plasmids work exactly as described. ]

[allatonce]

[good to know that fontaine wasn't lying about that, but there goes her theory about jason losing control and hulking out or something.

is there anything else around we haven't managed to investigate. was the symbol fucked up symbolism or is it important.]

[bathymetric]

[ So while you were finding the body, Joy, you would have noticed the positioning: face down, reaching out.

There's also, however, or there was, a small drag trail between him and the start of the blood. ]

[allatonce]

[good to know. like he was pulled away from where he fell, i'm assuming?]

[bathymetric]

[ Possibly, though there's not a lot of room between him and the wall for someone else to easily pull him. It's much more likely that he pulled himself. ]

[allatonce]

[turns out that i, like redd, am bad at spatial awareness.

oh jason, we're really in it now.]
