Third.

This week has been eventful for the lot of you, if a bit political for some; another resistance meeting, petitions everywhere, group dinners, and the new addition of a bunch of chickens to the group have ensured that at the very least, you've all had reason to keep busy. Of course, there's still that incentive to keep in mind, as well as the fact that there's been a murder every Friday since everyone arrived.

Either way, the clock chimes in the morning, as it always does; the doors to the kitchen and the mail room unlock themselves, and all seems quiet.

Thankfully, today the ballroom is blessedly corpse-free, as is the rest of the first floor. Maybe it would be good to move upstairs, though, just to make sure the rest of the Academy is likewise.

[Nope, nothing out of the ordinary here! At least, not from where you're standing.]

[Well, she's not going to give up. Is there anything down low, possibly underneath the desk or the bed? It looks like everyone else has the room under control.]

[Where do you want to look? Under the desk or the bed?]

[Well, since there's now a swarm of people by the bed, she'll check under the desk but let's face it she did not do well this investigation.]

[It looks like Morty's got that, actually. Do you want to join him?]

[She's the one who got the dolls. She can explain those when everyone is done.

For now, she's going to keep looking. No one can criticize her for not trying.]

[Checking under the desk, then?]

[Yep! As efficiently as if looking for a missing hamster!]

[Well, you won't find a hamster, but you will find a crumpled piece of paper.]

[Don't mind her, losers

She's just going to sit under the desk and uncrumple it because Hibiki is impossibly tiny and curious]

[HELLO HIBIKI I SEE YOU'RE CHECKING UNDER THE DESK- what is that?]

What's it say?

[The letter is in Ashley's handwriting and it reads as follows:

Josh,

I'm sorry. I'm sorry about Hannah and Beth. I'm sorry that I'm so glad to be alive. You're the reason I met any of our friends and now I'm the reason you're de]

[Josh. That name.

After everything that Ashley has told her, she's not going to make this public. She gently crumples it back up and sticks it in her pocket before looking up at Blue.]

Sorry, it's...got nothin' to do with anythin' here! It was about somethin' we were talkin' about the other night.

[It was a horrible night and people died. That's not anyone's business but the dead's.]

I wonder if it's the same thing we were talking about the other night.

[Regardless, you go ahead and keep that crumpled letter and she will keep hers, and we'll both just kind of. Not bring up this personal stuff unless it becomes really necessary to do so.

Is there anything else around the room to find?]

[Yes, you're still missing one piece of evidence!

...You're very warm though, don't move too far from that desk!!]

[What about on the floor around the desk?]

[Nothing else on the floor, nope!]

[What about the chair?]

[Nothing weird about the chair either!

...There's still something you guys haven't checked with the desk.]

[Has the desk been moved?]

[Nope, but it looks like Blue's found something.]

[...Inside the desk, what about inside the desk-]

[DING DING DING WE HAVE A WINNER

There sure are some more letters inside here! But wait, these aren't handwritten, they're typed...]

[Well then looks like Blue is hella collecting letters. She can start a letter hoard.

...So what do these letters say?]

Are those from the Conductor, Blue?

[She's finally standing anyways so go desk team go?]
