Second.

This week hasn't been good for a lot of you. Between the trial last weekend and strange dreams plaguing your sleep, the incident involving Yosuke on Monday, and the fact that apparently your captors are incentivizing you to kill one another, tensions have been high and spirits have been low overall. Worst of all, you're still trapped here. Friday morning dawns like the rest of the week before it; the clock chimes, the doors to the kitchen unlock, and there's a heavy silence that's settled over the building. However, it seems apparent that today isn't going to be just another day almost from the start, at least for some of you. Namely, the floor is wet in one of the dormitory hallways. The floors are wooden in here, so there's a good amount of it in the hall, seeing as it hasn't really soaked into anything properly; that said, it's just wet and spreading, not totally flooded or anything. It's the hall between rooms 21-25 that's currently the concern. You might want to see what's going on. And do try to avoid stepping in it unless you're wearing shoes. Explore?

[No answer.

It also seems like the door is locked.]

[icysemblance]

[Well, shit.]

Um. I guess we'll definitely need to pick the lock.

[hentopan]

You all just going to keep staring at the door or what?

[ Uh so can Terumi kick the door open because he's sure as hell gonna try. ]

[zomgboom]

[FINALLY, I'M USEFUL. MY TIME HAS COME.

Tabby is going to pick the lock.]

[trustfellows]

[Go right ahead and do that, Tabby -

...God, it's absolutely saturated in here as well, and there is audibly the sound of water running in the bathroom.]

[bloodbiter]

[Welp.

Time to head into the bathroom, then, now that the door is open.]

[icysemblance]

This can't possibly be good.

[Yep, headed that way...]

[innocentloveholic]

[ SMALL PINK GREMLIN IS OUR THIRD HERE, she's... not used to worry, it is not really her thing, and she is not like super worried but she is slightly and

look chitoge and her became study buddies this week and she's going to be a little upset if those plans have now changed, and she needs to see for herself if they are. ]

[ninehundredlives]

[Yeah, sure, let's do this...]

[heritrix]

[Also going, but Rin keeps to the back. She's half here to confirm what's wrong and half just to bar the doorway, on the slim chance Alex tries to come in.]

[perpend]

[This is going to be awful. Cabanela hasn't spoken to the girl much, but....]

[trustfellows]

[It looks like the sound of running water is coming from the bathtub - the taps have been left on, and they're still gushing water. The tub is more than overflowing by now, water spilling out heavily onto the floor.

Of course, some of the water pouring into the tub is also being displaced by the person that's lying mostly submerged in the water.]

[bloodbiter]

[Feeling her heart pounding, she moves forward immediately, both to see who it is and to take their pulse.]

[ninehundredlives]

Don't everyone come rushing in here.

[She says, hoping someone else can actually stop them.]

[bloodbiter]

They're submerged. I can move them out of the water, but I don't know how to get it out of their lungs if they've swallowed too much.

[In case, you know, they aren't super dead.]

[perpend]

Please stay back, everyone.

[He's not exactly big enough to physically block people, but he will be trying to make sure people don't all crowd into the bathroom.]

[zomgboom]

Is it, like, blondie?

[Translation: "can I steal the stuff in this room or do we have bigger problems?"

She wasn't about to try and shove herself into that bathroom with everyone.]

[perpend]

...at least wait until we've looked everything over in here.

[He's really not cool with stealing tbh, but it's not like he can do much about it so go nuts, Tabby.]

[trustfellows]

[The person's face is still visible, given that their head isn't under the water; it's tipped back, leaned up against the edge of the tub, eyes closed. They're unmoving, not stirring any as they're approached, and they don't appear to be breathing; it may be difficult to tell that at first, because they're still fully clothed under the water, but enough of their mouth is under that if they were still alive, some sort of instinctive reflex or another would be kicking in to ensure they don't inhale and drown themselves.

Her long blonde hair is billowing out gently in the water around her body; that said, you might not want to reach into the water. The toaster from the kitchen seems to have been knocked in with her; it's still plugged in, and even if the appliance has long since shorted out, you might not want to try to touch her while there's still a connection to an active current. (Somebody please stop poor Adelina.)

Either way, there's only one conclusion to be drawn here.

Chitoge Kirisaki is dead.]

[ninehundredlives]

[SHIT]

Don't - ! [Susan grabs Adelina's shoulder to pull her back, hard.]

[zomgboom]

[Something belatedly occurs to her:]

Don't touch anything if the toaster is in there! [Because those two things have to be related.] We don't need two dead bodies.

[innocentloveholic]

[ .........oh.

Oh, well. ...She'd yell that Chitoge's dead but this is her room, there's no big point to it, she's gonna be the only one in here so—Aligula's just gonna glare at the toaster and then at her body before she shuffles to one of the walls to lean against.

Ugggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhh. ]

[greenmamabear]

[Oh god. She slams her eyes shut.]

W- she- anyone from before electric, keep back!

[perpend]

[...Dammit.

If she had just fallen into the water, maybe they could have done something. But with the toaster......]

[icysemblance]

[...at least it isn't blood? Right? Just going to approach here.]
