FOYER - 3:30 PM - INVESTIGATION START
The players have discovered the body of Rin Kagamine in the music room. The investigation of her death has begun.]
Susan Sto Helit | 3:35 | Library
3:15: Rin had gone. To her room, no doubt. Susan wasn't overly concerned. No one had ever been murdered in an unlocked room open to everyone else in the house in the middle of the afternoon. The fact that Wednesday morning had dawned with all of the deadweights and dispensables accounted for had been a relief; some part of her had thought, perhaps, that they could at last get through a week without incident.
3:30: The clock tolls.]
...No.
[Susan never panics, but she takes the steps two at a time anyway as she... energetically makes her way towards the music room. One glance inside is all she needs to confirm her suspicion.]
They can't have gone far.
[The murderer could retreat into one of the housing wings - or upstairs into the library or study to take a book and pretend to read. Having come from the parlor, Susan will quickly head upstairs to see if there is anyone or anything to be found in the library.]
no subject
Ah--do you know who it was?
no subject
She was alive - well, functioning - in the piano room still barely a half hour ago. I lost track of her shortly after, but... Well, I wasn't alarmed, who would be murdered in public in the middle of the afternoon like that?
Apparently, she could.
[Susan's words are slightly rushed. This was the first time she could have prevented something from happening if she had exercised more paranoia, and it was clear she was, at the moment, not fully in control of herself. An unusual state.]

Susan! The alarm went off too quickly!
no subject
[Susan takes a few steps in the room and shakes her head at the sight of the robotic shell.]
And you two were the first ones here? They didn't change the rules, did they? We are reduced to two-thirds, perhaps...
But if not, that means --

Sonia - have you been here long? Did anyone enter in the last half hour or so?

Who is it? [ When she glances from Susan to the body lying in the room, Rapture's eyebrows raises a bit. ] I didn't know that was even possible.

Latvia & Belarus → Billiards Room → 4:30pm
It wasn't too hard, he normally found her in or around the chapel when she wasn't in the house. Together they made their way up to the billiards room on what little hunch Latvia had]
I'm not sure, but I heard the murder took place in the music room... They might have come through here, do you think?
[He was a little unsure, he just didn't want to investigate alone, or investigate at all but his anxieties about becoming a dead weight were stronger than his anxieties about the case. Latvia makes a start by looking through the shelves for anything unusual]
... I'm sorry for dragging you away. I just thought we might be more likely to find something if there's two of us.

It is fine. It is one possible route, yes.

Kaoru Nagumo + Kanaya Maryam | 3:20 | Kitchen
there are chicken cutlets plated alongside delicately sliced vegetables, a noodle dish, something that looks like a Westernized aburaage, and a few other smaller, single-portion plates.]
There! [A JOB WELL DONE. Kaoru turns with a smile toward Kanaya.] Where would you like me to begin?
no subject
This is so lovely all put together. What about... [After a moment's thought she points a flickering finger at the aburaage.] This? It looks like a starch staple but the materials seemed different from that...

Yuzu / Various / Pre-Investigation
Ballroom, 9am
S-So, um... [this is going to be slightly awkward]
...Does anyone know how to get smoke out of clothes?
Kitchen, afterwards
[well, here she is, trying. For once someone is not washing dishes in here god why couldn't the anachronisms extend to washing machines]
Courtyard, 2.15pm
[Fresh air. Fresh, not-smokey air is good. Hence, you can find Yuzu lounging on a bench (in plain view from the windows, since it's a Wednesday), flicking lazily through a romance novel]
Kitchen
Yuzu-san, right? Good morning, but what are you doing?

...Oh. Yuzu.
[There is only one teacup on the tray. ...Awkward pause.]
I'd pretend that I prepared this to share if it weren't so blatantly obvious I wasn't expecting anyone else. You're welcome to have some anyway, though.

Belarus / Various / Pre-Investigation
[Belarus seems to eat stiffly and mechanically, eating quickly and clearly not intending to remain in the room long. Looks like you'll have to catch her attention if you want a morning chat.]
Parlor, 9am
[Guess who's flicking through the historical books. That's right, it's Belarus. And it really is flicking through; she's checking indexes and trying to find pages; it seems to be a pretty frustrating search]
Chapel, 1pm onward
[...yeah, sod that. Weary, confused and... well, irritable, she's retreated to the Chapel for some peace and quiet. You can find her at a bench, quietly at rest.]
