Between Truth or Dare and the resistance meeting, it seems things have been going reasonably well this week; at the same time, there have been fights here and there, and the Conductor's incentive has certainly been something to take into consideration as well. So there's been some good, and some bad, and some things that no one is talking about; the clock chimes on Friday morning, as it always does, and the doors to the kitchen and the mail room unlock. Of course, those wandering past the incinerator room will notice that it's...warm in there. Really warm? ...Oh. Blessedly enough, there isn't a body in the room, and the incinerator isn't large enough to destroy one, so this room can probably be left alone for now; however, just because there isn't a body here doesn't mean that everything is clear and no one has anything to hide. You might want to look around. >Explore?

[Last time, the teens found interesting evidence in Kaneki's room. Let's see if Byakuren kept anything hidden in her desk]

[trustmods]

[You won't have to look that far, there's a note on the desk!

>Examine?]

[forcegalactic]

[Please don't be another ghoul.]

[trustmods]

[Less cannibalism would probably be good, yes...

The letter is addressed to Minamitsu, Ichirin, and Shou and the only line is as follows:

I appear to have been kidnapped, this

...And yes, there isn't anything after that.]

[becauseicould]

[Hopefully you two don't mind a sudden knocking on the door there! Undyne pokes her head into the room.]

Did you guys find anything interesting?

[She kind of wants to avoid the hot mess express that is the ballroom, honestly...]

[forcegalactic]

[Mordecai turns to Undyne, holding an unfinished letter.]

Looks like she was thinkin' of sendin' a message for help.

[becauseicould]

Wait, really?

[Yeah, excuse her for a second while she goes in and gets a look--trying not to pop the personal space bubble here, but that may be something--

...Oh god]

So she was trying to get help... [Oh god.] Ugh. She was actually trying to help us!

[forcegalactic]

What- [Mordecai nearly flinches, but Undyne isn't wearing the godawful perfume today, and he remains there, personal space invaded.]

Why wouldn't she be askin' for help? Sure, her age don't make sense, but she didn't seem the type to work against us!

[She was a nun and really polite; why did one of the nicer people have to die?]

[becauseicould]

Hey, after what happened last week, I'm surprised anyone has good points anymore!

[She's gonna back off now, thankfully, but...of all the people, her?]

You're right, but...I'm still surprised! She could've been like him, for all we know, and yet... [Just. Gesturing to the letter. Very angry gesturing.

Someone's getting justice served to them. With a fist, if she has anything to say about it.]

[forcegalactic]

Look, Reaver was suspicious from the start! That whole likin' loose morals, ownin' the towns where his workers live? That ain't the kinda person I trust!

[He folds the letter neatly and slips it into his vest. A wave of determination flows through him.]

We're gonna find out who did this.

[becauseicould]

That's not who I meant... [She's annoyed, granted, but it isn't directed toward him. She should've specified.] I meant someone like the Conductor.

[...Even so, determination is infectious. She grins.]

Hell yeah we are!! They won't even know what hit them!

[zomgboom]

Zilch. [A beat.] But, like, she didn't go to sleep before she got dead.

[becauseicould]

[...You know, if she had it in her, she'd chuckle like hell. Dead sounds like a disease when one puts it that way.]

Ugh--of all the times to not find anything, it had to be for something so cruel...

[Someone's a little more than pissed off, to say the least.]

[zomgboom]

Do you know if, like, she slept during the day like Dio? [Was she a vampire. Is everyone vampires.] I spoke to her, like, once.

[becauseicould]

I only talked to her once, when we first got here--I never really got to know her, so I can't say either way.

[Still, when she thinks about it...]

It'd explain her age, though! It said she was over one thousand on her profile!

[zomgboom]

How would that explain her age? Do immortal people, like, need to sleep during the day?

[FIRST SHE'S HEARD OF IT.]

[becauseicould]

Aren't vampires usually that old? They have immortality as long as they drink blood and don't go out in the sun, right?

[She's seen it in her animes, it's totally legit right]

[zomgboom]

I dunno, Blade's only like. Thirty. [Probably maybe fucking Marvel Time.] But I guess he's not, like, a real vampire? Because he can go out in sun and stuff? This is really, like, Elsa's area of expertise. I'm, like, good at blowing stuff up and she's good at monster stuff.
