Second investigation

[letsplayamod]

[Friday has come once again, Typhon’s deadline for the carrot of a motive dangled in front of their faces. Temptations abound and, when the godlings stir in the morning, the air feels thick in a way it hasn’t before. Thunder rumbles outside and the sound of sheets of rain pour down but only ends up pounding against Athena’s protective barrier. No one could ask for a finer umbrella.

There's no more monstrous cyclops threatening your morning. The horses were corralled back to their stables to wind down from the frightening excitement of last Wednesday. From then on, Typhon's threats have once more grown quiet. Everything seems to be... fine.

Still, something feels off.]

[Trial. Another gods damned trial. Right, right he can't drag his feet.]

I'm stayin'.

[Steeling himself with a schooled breath. Soul of ice, Saotome, soul of ice. Ranma's unwrapping his shirt from the wounds, starting to silent bemoan that he's going to have to wash it yet again this week before putting a pin in that thought. While Zvei's poking the chisel wounds, Ranma's going to look at the other component of this death's design: the anvil.

Does it look deliberately there for Alex to fall onto, or has it always been right in this very spot?]

[A nod in acknowledgement; thanks for the help, Ranma.]

[ She's got her crying out of her system now and has that more vacant look in her eyes now. A calm before a storm. But she hears this all, looks to Zvei and nods. ]

I'm also staying.

[ But she also gets up and backs away from the body. She knows it's important to stay out of the way and let someone who knows what they're doing examine the body. ]

[Another nod in acknowledgement; Lebkuchen is welcome to stay, of course!]
