Week 2 - April 13th

Week 2: Investigation

The Sergeant's deadline is tonight. An offer to get in contact with people you know, yet also a threat. Given how fed up he was, it's unlikely he's joking about the kind of cruelty he's willing to go through for the sake of getting what he wants.

That's why it may not be so surprising that, early in Friday morning, there's this air of tension, despite the bright sun in the sky. It doesn't help that a firetruck and a couple patrolcars race through the streets, passing in front of the motel and going west. The reason why is clear after a single glance:

There's a thick column of black smoke emanating from somewhere inside the Junkyard.

[Sirens.

Again.

She's following the cars this time. To the junkyard.]

[pursuitofdeath]

[Oh. Hmm. That seems fine! What's burning???]

[saladandeggs]

CAN’T A MAN GET SOME SLEEP AROUND HERE?!

[Frasier Cranium emerges. Tired. Cranky. Stumbling towards the smoke.]

[pursuitofdeath]

[Oh hello Millium. You didn't ask for an adult so-- good, because you aren't really getting one. But he's joining you all the same.]

[carbide]

[Hi Millium, are you tired of Olympia yet? Too bad, she's following you. (Or, you know, you're just both going to the same place.)]

[protectandselfserve]

[Well, that sure smells like trouble. To the junkyard!]

[doublelammy]

[That's fine, she's not sure an adult would help here.] It's just like that first Friday...

[linearcrash]

[ He's following behind all wet cause the noise disturbed his shower. ]

What the hell is going on?!

[odasaku]

[ haha well fuck

oda is also going to go to the junkyard! gotta make sure millium doesn't do something stupid. ]

[relieable]

[he's following because he's worried about Millium okay]

[pursuitofdeath]

...you mean when you and Sakura-chan were here before.

[Well that bodes about as well as he expected.]

[doublelammy]

[Wow? Can y'all have like half a faith in her??? smh]

[robitussin]

[junkyard crew has one more member!!]

...This can’t be good.

[prayerwheel]

[ Silently following behind him. Nine needs a babysitter and no one else is stepping up to the plate. ]

There's a trail of smoke from the junkyard. Are you going to look?

[odasaku]

[ he has half a faith on her and thats why he's not telling her to go back GOSH ]

[doublelammy]

[mmmm she'll allow it]

[cartesio]

[ When you arrive at the junkyard, it doesn't look like the police or firefighters have dug into the scene too much. Probably because they seem too baffled to?

Something very wrong seems to have happened here, evident by the burning, broken-down car they're stopped in front of. That's the source of the smoke, but it looks like...there's something inside it, as well. ]

[odasaku]

So much for trying to lay low after the cinema thing.

[pecker]

[Well, howdy next door neighbor. Niwatori is stepping out at the same time, confused.]

T-The junkyard's smoking like a chimney... Did someone...?

[pursuitofdeath]

[Can the door be opened?]

[linearcrash]

[ Yeeeeah that checks out. Also hi babe.]

Have to peek to make sure no one needs help, you know?

[ Let's go to the junkyard. ]

[robitussin]

As if that was going to happen. Still... This is on another level.

[prayerwheel]

Just don't get too close to the fire. Gods know if there's anything explosive in that scrap heap.

[ She's about five seconds away from waggling her finger like a school marm, but also like, not going to stop him. He's got a point. ]

[carbide]

[While Dazai tries the dazoor, Olympia peers through the window. Who has managed to get this vehicle into this fantastically terrible failure state?]

[cartesio]

[ Not unless you want your hands burned off! You'll need to find a way to extinguish enough of the fire...or hey, maybe ask the bewildered firefighter with the hose? ]
