WEEK 3 INVESTIGATION

[killerwaves]

INVESTIGATION

Good morning, sunshines, sungems, and wild partiers of the night! No matter what kind of night you had, you'll find yourself awakening to an energetic tune blasting out from the island speaker system, one that more than a few of you will recognize -- you won't be able to escape it, but why would you want to?

Music is a great way to start your day, and surely, this is a great omen for Fridays at this resort. There's at least one reason to get up dancing, as the wings of the warp phenomenon have vanished with the morning mist and the sea breeze; Kingfisher's Retreat boasts a beautiful, uninterrupted waterfall that reflects the morning sun once more, and the waves at Sungem's Peak are largely peaceful. Even the customary burst of sound and pressure was a little mollified by the addition of the new soundtrack. You know what that means by now, but hopefully the music will add a pep in your step.

(( OOC: Welcome to your second investigation, we hope everyone is enjoying their DD refreshes ☆ ))

[... okay, there are definitely more comfortable places for an enforced nap than the arcade. Shuda is not going to be in the best mood when he wakes up, but he's going to be taking a look around to see what can be found here.]

[idologue]

[ Lacus wakes in the garden, to the sound of her friend's singing.. This should be a sign of a very good day. It is decidedly not.

Only one look around makes her blood freeze in her veins. She will only shoot Zelkov a short look, before running off towards the main resort building. ]

[passetemps]

[ ah.

well. he'll rush to catch up with her, in that case. ]

[plunges]

[ Xiao wakes in the spa to a familiar voice. It's...

...Haruka's? Haruka's voice, which is so clear and distinct – but it sounds distant. Far away. There's uncertainty that settles in his chest. He'll check on everyone else later.

Is Haruka still here, in the spa? ]

1/2

[killerwaves]

[ I dunno Xiao, is he?

You see there's a pretty big pile here as the result of what happened last night. ]

2/2

[townmusician]

[…and Haruka is a part of the pile!

Looking very confused over hearing himself.]

Ehhh, when did we get an actual radio here…

[help]

[hearnoplague]

[ Kallamar pokes his head out of the Seagull cabana after unbarricading the front door... Is it clear? ]

[killerwaves]

[Well, Shuda, you'll immediately notice that there's a bit of a mess outside the arcade this time. There's like, at least one felled palm tree out there. Probably more.]

[finalforte]

[Stepping out of the Pelican cabana looking disgruntled.]

First geese and now loud music? Kanon wanted her beauty rest!

[SPEAKING OF WHICH, ARE THE GEESE STILL AROUND??]

[gluttoning]

[Everyone else: yay Haruka is alive

beel: currently tossing someone off him (who? Idk take your pick) and beelining for the snack crate.

His stomach sounds like a monster of its own.]

[plunges]

[ mods, kindly, WHAT THE FUCK.

Xiao sits up and gives Haruka a very pointed stare. ]

Don't tell me you aren't concerned about that.

[ He rubs his eyes, holds onto Haruka's hand. He gathers himself after that brief moment of panic, then – ]

Let's check on the others.

[divector]

[ At the Toucan Cabana, Ibuki wakes up to music he really isn't up to hearing this early.

So, importantly, is there still honking outside? ]

[killerwaves]

[Well, Kallamar, are you looking up?]

[necrotiem]

[Well...the music certainly beats whatever was on the sound system last night, doesn't it? Flashback to circus whales...

With a yawn, Waltaquin raises her head from where it lay. She recalls dosing off with Psyche ... who she is hopefully still intertwined with?]

[dakicover]

[ and someone’s getting tossed into the onsen—

he’s scrambling out, looking like a wet dog. ]

WHAT THE—!?!? WHAT’S YOUR PROBLEM!?!?

[killerwaves]

[ Running up, you'll be able to see that the roof of the main resort building is not all in piece. More specifically, the section by the laundry is mostly gone. ]

[hearnoplague]

[ ... Yes? ]

[idologue]

[ Well. To the laundry then! She won't stop running until she gets there, sorry to both Zelkov and Mr. Pink who are trying to catch up.

Bad feeling about this, bad feeling about this, bad feeling about this... ]

[dupiety]

[Temenos also goes flopping onto the floor as Beelzebub gets up.]

Ngh-- [???] What is that sound?

[gluttoning]

[A little busy shoving food in his mouth at a breakneck speed, please hold.

Hope you enjoyed your wake up call, Crea!]

[diabolizes]

[ And here’s Wei Wuxian, sitting up from somewhere in the pile. ]

…Morning…

[microtransactions]

[ magolor is just going to wake up and get his morning cuppa at the book cafe and disregard any odds and ends that might be leftover from barrier shenanigans last night, before heading up to the roof to sip at his wake-up coffee and see if he can catch sight of anything weird or not from there.

how are the gazebos, the beach, etc etc. good? we're all good in terms of things in his sightline? ]

[dancing_flames]

[... well, this looks concerning. What sort of a mess are we talking about besides just the downed palm trees here?]

[killerwaves]

[Nary a honk nor a feather to be found. Perhaps her imposing aura scared it off? That said, there's probably some debris around here...]

[killerwaves]

[If there is honking outside, it's beautifully harmonized to the song coming over the speakers--

There's no geese to be found stepping outside! But there may be other things... Like debris. And stuff.]
