[ hey, mineo. here's gu yun! he's dressed in silks that are no longer destroyed, and though his left arm is still hanging loosely at his side, he looks much, much better than when he was profusely bleeding on the floor yesterday.
he comes into the common room, poking around between medbay stays, and spots a familiar red head of hair. ]
Mineo. [ in greeting, as he comes over. hey, how ya doin. ]
[ already slipped into business mode, he makes his way over, leaning on the top of the couch with his right arm to take a look at the television, and then shakes his head. ]
Mm. It got hard to breathe, and when we woke up there was a weird taste of salt in our mouths and the plastic food was melted.
[so he will give more details]
But that's pretty weird... That's also different from what the med bay was like last week. I'm wondering if we'll find more trends like we did with the fire last week. So far all the indicators just point to the victims... It'd be nice if they helped us out with suspects.
Maybe it's connected to the hot tub. [ huh. ] There's not much point in ruminating on it without all of the information too much, though. [ which means... more scouting around and gathering clues. boy, it would be nice if they could do that in ways that didn't involve weird illusions. ]
I suppose it would be a bit too easy, otherwise. [ suspects... ] Still - if we can identify what each of these illusions might lead us to, it can get us started on placing evidence with the correct victim from the beginning.
[ gu yun waves his still existing hand. in the process, he jostles his sleeve on his non working arm, and mineo will get to see what looks like. uh. white bone sticking out of the edge of the sleeve?? please ignore that. ] I'll ask around, and see what sort of a picture we can start to gather before tomorrow.
Have you healed up enough before you go? Do you need painkillers?
At the very least, we'll have time tomorrow since it takes time to even collect evidence and get updates on the body. But I do think that looking at the common room sooner rather than later would be my preference.
Same for checking out the victims' rooms sooner, and identifying where they all were for curfew.
[ gu yun waves this off because of course he does. this is how he got his pride indulgence this week, by pretending that he wasn't bleeding profusely on the floor. ] I can't even feel it.
[ though he probably should have that numb arm in a sling or something?? no one has asked him to do that? it's fine. dismissing that, he's all business. ] Mn. Let's make the common room first priority, then. I don't know if it's a good idea for me to investigate much tomorrow - the healing pod has side effects, and I can barely pick anything up for more than a second before I drop it with my other hand. I'll coordinate whatever needs to be coordinated. [ a beat. his mouth curls up, and a little dryly; ] I'm good at barking orders.
[ kidding, kidding. poking a little fun at himself, perhaps.
anyway! as for the victims... ] Vlad had some injuries from our adventure this week, but didn't elect to go to the medbay. I'm not sure what the state of him was, but I will say -- he died in that other world. Rather violently, at that.
I'm not sure about the other two - Steven was close with Lenore, though, so she may be the one to check with. Yuri might've known where Luca was. The more details that can be corroborated, the better.
w2 friday!

no subject
he glances over at gu yun]
Gu-san...
You don't see anything playing on the TV, right...?
no subject
Nothing. What do you see?
no subject
looks so tired. not even flustered or anything, just agitated]
Two people getting it on in a hot tub - on some kind of cruise? Stupid. I hate this place.
no subject
What sort of a hint is that supposed to be?
[ WHO HOT TUB MURDERED ]
no subject
he's walking out now that he confirmed gu yun can't see it. he doesn't like it.]
Maybe that someone was seduced before they were murdered. We have to come back here tomorrow anyway. Bring gloves.
no subject
Mm. The medbay'll be worth a check - and from what I've heard, the jail as well. Likely many locations, with a lot of crossover between evidence.
no subject
I was in the jail. So what makes you say that? The toblerone?
[until they get all the reports in general he's not sure what the links may be]
no subject
[ so! no real connections. he's with mineo on that one, too. ] Rather, just that I'd heard it was odd at all. It's best to be as thorough as possible.
The pods in the med bay were opening and closing up until curfew ended - and everyone awoke inside of one, not just Childe and I.
