Week 5: Investigation

You wake to the heat breaking in the morning. It's actually morning, bright. Sunny. Probably all of you are pleased to have gotten through the night with sleep, or at least with no sudden gunshots and impromptu investigation.

Cherish that brief bliss. Enjoy your morning routine, as long as it's in the motel. Once you leave the motel, you see, it's obvious something awful's happened again. Someone has taken the Sergeant's bait.

Because, right outside the very door of the building you sleep in, there's a broken body to greet you.

[ Lammy doesn't move easily, but it will. It's heavy after all. If you're looking for any proof that Millium may be alive under there, you aren't going to get it. The awkward angle of her neck confirms that. ]

[marmoron]

[Doesn't matter if it's heavy or not, Keith's determined to get Milium out from under the robot and he doesn't care how much energy that takes. As soon as he sees her body though and the way her neck is....? Keith's a lot less frantic. It's too late, they're always too late.

He'll kneel down to touch her face just briefly.]

...damn it.

[Can't get lost on this right now. Can't -- still has to find Cian. He'll actually turn to Cosmo the investigation doggo for this one. Can Cosmo track Cian down by scent??]

[cartesio]

[ Where in the motel are you looking? That's the big question here. She's not in her room, nor anyone else's, it seems. ]

[marmoron]

[Is there any particular direction Cosmo wants to head in based on her scent?? Keith's going to rely on the wolf here.

IF NOT, he'll look in the motel lounge for her!]

[cartesio]

[ Give Cosmo a moment...and he'll start to pick up on something. Cian's scent leads deeper into the motel, towards a set of stairs. Those stairs lead to the roof. ]

[marmoron]

[....Oh god, fucking hell. Keith's already on turbo.]

Come on, let's go.

[TIME TO GO UP TO THE ROOF.]

[cartesio]

[ Brace yourself. ]
