Andreas climbes over to begin examining everything, skillfully asking Charlie to go over anything one more time while he does, and asking him to make sure not to leave any details out.

Charlie begins recounting everything he remembers once more, but none of the details change from the last explanation.

Andreas starts with the smeared blood. It looks as though someone was beaten here with a large flat object, until their head had suffered severe enough injury that blood began to splatter out of it with each consecutive smash. The body was then either dragged, or the person still alive enough to drag themselves into room 205 where the smears on the floor lead.

Andreas then begins a quick search of the debris. He can reach, but not move, the following items: Two I-beams, an stove/oven, a raised cafe table. He can also reach and pry out the following items: door molding, and the top half of the door to room 206.

Andreas then looks to see if there are any ways of entering either room 205 or 206. 206 (the would-be northern exit) is completely caved-in on, there is junk literally bulging out of what's left of the smashed door. However, 205 (to the shouth) seems to be mostly empty. The door has been beaten in, and if Andreas can fit himself between the two crossed I-beams, then he can crawl into the room.

First Andreas tries to move the two pryable objects, but finds soon that removing them would only make more of a mess, and decides to leave them there. They're not really that important anyway.
>get Charlie to try and squeeze in between the I-beams so you don't have to turn your back
>try to pick Charlie's pocket as he slides past you

Then Andreas asks Charlie to see if he can squeeze into room 205 through the skinny opening. Charlie is reluctant at first, but when Andreas says he'll keep watch, Charlie rolls up his sleeves and tries it out. While he's down, Andreas tries to see if Charlie has anything on him, but Charlie quickly turns around and announces to Andreas that his head seems to be too large to fit through the little opening. Andreas did not have a chance to see Charlie's inventory.

If I don't cover an action that you suggest, that only means that other actions have interrupted them by revealing new things, and I did not want to cut you off from playing without hearing of new developments. Because of this, you may need to suggest actions that you already have suggested so that I know it is truly the course of action you wish to take.

I can't go back over every action and make a post for it, because it would bog the game down in new info.

Also, we've been officially doing this for a week now! Happy anniversary (two days ago)! Let me take this moment to ask if you guys are enjoying this, or if you have any suggestions on how I could tighten the gameplay up. What do you think of the Quest so far?  

[Kusaragi]

I don't know about everyone else, but I like how this is. I think there might be something said to some more direction to all of this.

Happy anniversary!

>head back west to where rooms 204 and 205 are.

Edit: (Andreas could probably make it through the small opening (Because he's so slick xd ) but I don't think we should try it until we can be sure of Charlies intent here.)  

[Erverain]

>IS that a pipe I see sticking out over there? If yes, see if you can't take it with you. Better than a stapler in case something shows up. If no, well, nuts to that. There are other things.  

[Kerrigan_dragon]

Sorry I haven't posted. Been occupied.

> Go west, trying to find a way out of this building.  

[Kalstolyn]

> Encourage Charlie to attempt to do something humanly impossible (jump while bending over and holding his toes, kiss his elbow, put his elbow in his ear, you choose) so that he will be distracted for a few moments. Advise Charlie to keep trying(!!!) as you:

> Squeeze between I-beams and loot examine room 205 more closely, paying particular attention to signs of the former owner of the blood smear.
(I'm assuming that the attribute WIRY will allow Andreas to do this)  

[Soreph]

Staple Charlie to the wall and check his inventory. twisted  

[wakusei]

Will we ever learn what happens?!  

[WiskersThCatfish]

Hehe, maybe. heart

Thanks for checking back despite the unscheduled downtime.
