In the neighborhood of the Moons, Lex approached their assistant next.

Yeah, that was a waste.

The note had said trust no one, right? Easiest way to do that was interview the people she held closest. She knew their ticks, their nervousness. If Kat was hyped up on coffee, she would probably yield nothing, but if the girl was "sober" so to speak, it might be quick.

"Kat!" she said, "bumping" into the girl. "I've been meaning to talk to you. You don't know anything about the ... council incident, do you?"


List
NPC:
  • Dwight - Skittish, Nervous when asked - weapon is (?), no access to council room unless requested, no motive - medium
  • Lance - Ability to hide evidence, annoyance(?) at questions, ambiguity about location of footage - disabled, no motive, improper weapon size - high
  • Aria - desummoned weapon fits description, access to council room, ability to hide evidence - no motive (?), composure kept, was near-death at the time (?) - low
  • Clarice - alibi for murder (could be excuse) - alibi, no motive (?), weapon far too large to be murder weapon - low
  • Edith - dodging the question (any question really, but that's besides the point) - weapon mismatch, no motive (?) - low


Hunters:
  • Kat - 0 suspicion

He retreated to the safety of the life labs.

Quote:
The doctor stares at you with amusement for several long moments, and then suddenly smiles widely, his teeth flashing.

"Are you quite sure you wish to stick your nose into such a dreadful tragedy?" He murmurs pleasantly, "If you aren't careful, my dear, it might get chopped off." He shoos you a way with a flap of the hand and several mildly insulting compliments.


Okay that was... kind of a weird thing to say about a murder.

But maybe he was just getting into playing his character?

Kat was on her way to interview the next person when turning to see Ami calling for her. Stopping, she greeted the life hunter with a wide grin and a small wave. "Hey, Ami." At her question, she merely blinked before shaking her head. "Nope. To be honest, I didn't even know about it until the news was going around the island." If only she did know more.. it would save her the trouble of going from one person to the next, asking them questions and getting.. looks.

"What about you? Anything you know that I haven't heard yet?"

Madison was halfway back to Lance's office before sanity kicked in.

NOPE.

Madison's List

NPCs:
1. Lance - How would he get away??? + weapon wouldn't leave those, would leave other evidence like wheelmarks?? but note, there was footage?! who has it??

2. Caelius - WHAT WAS I THINKING. Obvious??? Too obvious - but could be mind games?? Could have done the damage, but again - so obvious, he could definitely have done it but I feel like he would've gotten pinned for it if he had, not well-liked so... obvious??? ugh my brain

Well this was new. He'd never even seen this office before, or the woman occupying it. Well, he had questions.

Quote:
"Oh?" Sam feigns surprise. "Why, that is super interesting. So you guys are like the Scooby Gang right?" Her voice is one-hundred percent patronizing. "Well then, I hope you run along now, let me know when you're ready to join the grown-ups outside the world of make believe."


Well somebody wasn't getting into the spirit of the training course.

Okay this was probably one of the last people he wanted to ask. Second only to Caelius. But since he had just recently asked Clarice, he figured the next best person would be her division lead.

Turns out he was so very wrong.

For some reason Ryan couldn't tell if that was a warning or a threat. Maybe it was even a mix of both. Either way, his suspicion against the life lead were very high.

He'd try more familiar territory, Lex thought. Familiar being the Life Labs, and specifically the office of the Doctor. He rapped the wooden door with slightly shaky knuckles, but cleared his throat when the lead beckoned him in.

"Sir? I was wondering what you knew about the council incident..."

"Are you quite sure you wish to stick your nose into such a dreadful tragedy?" He murmured pleasantly, "If you aren't careful, my dear, it might get chopped off."

With a flap of his hand and something along the lines of "You could be so charming..." Lex was out of the door. Wait...could be?!

  • Edith: Could be playing it cool, too by the book, lack of motive - low
  • Charlotte: Finicky and quiet, too timid, low possibility of snapping - very low

"No I was ... After the eradication- partial eradication of the horsemen I was sent on more missions. I really don't remember much of that time." That was a littttle shaky.

Hm. Ami thought that was a fair answer. Then again, Kat could've easily been covering something up. "Really? Nothing? Do you even know anything about the council's decision regarding the horsemen?"

She'd only encountered Dwight once, on that long-ago mission to Antarctica. He'd interviewed her and a few of the others about their experiences, hadn't he? So his flustering seemed odd... not necessarily suspicious, but definitely odd.

And interesting to learn more about this footage... hmm.

Madison's List

NPCs:
1. Lance - How would he get away??? + weapon wouldn't leave those, would leave other evidence like wheelmarks?? but note, there was footage?! who has it??

2. Caelius - WHAT WAS I THINKING. Obvious??? Too obvious - but could be mind games?? Could have done the damage, but again - so obvious, he could definitely have done it but I feel like he would've gotten pinned for it if he had, not well-liked so... obvious??? ugh my brain

3. Dwight - footage again!! division leaders saw it?? he acted really flustered and scared but... who knows man.

Shaking her head, she honestly had no idea what had gone on around that time. "Nah, I was back in the pods for a while, and by the time I was out, I was pretty much just hearing of everything from everyone else. As for the council's death, I didn't hear about that until I was told by others as well."

(( fkdgjk sorry! turns out Kat was awake during that time OTL ))

Jeez. While he was at it, he might as well ask another life hunter some questions. Though to be honest, Dwight's reaction was not quite what he was expecting.

Quote:
The Life tech gets flustered and drops a few papers. As he scrambles to grab them up, he squeaks, "Hey w-what? I thought the Council thing was closed!"

Clearing his throat, he continues, back straight and voice a bit deeper, "What I mean to say is, the videos from that time have already been reviewed by the division leaders, so it's out of my hands now." He stares at you for a moment, and then turns and runs away from you.


Well that was... a little more than suspicious. Dwight didn't seem like the killer type. However, there was a good chance he knew who the killer was. He might have even be involved.

Ryan watched silently as the life tech disappeared down the hall, before writing down a few notes on a piece of paper.

Did ja?

"Oh hai Kat!"

Ami could've smacked herself. Kat wasn't even awake at the time. She wrote something down on a piece of paper then rolled her eyes.

"Right, right. I'm just curious about all this now. I have nothing better to do until Madeline finishes-"

OH s**t. "Oh my god I left Madeline alone in the library. I'll talk to you later Kat!"
