WEEK ONE, SATURDAY

[killerwaves]

INVESTIGATION(?)

Exciting night, no? Were you able to get to sleep, or did you stay up into the wee hours, seeing that far-off shimmer near the gazebos and listening to the rising rumble of whatever-that-is and wondering when it would come for you?

At least, when dawn finally comes and the shimmer is overcome by the rising light of the sun, it seems that last night wasn't the end. For you.

Instead, once it's morning proper, there's a shift -- like the breeze and the smell after a bout of sudden summer thunderstorm without the storm: the pressure and the oppressive atmosphere of yesterday is gone, just like that. But also: accompanying it a few seconds later is a clean whipcrack of sound, like giant hands clapping together. And a moment after that, you'll feel something pass overhead -- you won't be able to see anything, but anyone outside at the time will find themselves staggered by what seems to be a small shockwave spreading throughout the island.

That's not the only change that awaits you this morning, however.

You might want to get out of bed, if you haven't already, and take a proper look around.

(( OOC: Welcome to our peace week Saturday event, islanders! Please note that this will be run similarly to a normal investigation, but will not be a full investigation. As such, everyone is welcome to explore for the first part of the event, and then we will take a limited amount of people for the second half, investigation-style. ))

Heh. Then there may be hope for me yet.

[If Beelzebub can wake Belphegor but not rouse Temenos from his mind palace, something is clearly wrong.]

And yes, I am done looking. Thank you for allowing me the chance. [...] I pray it does not come to this, but in the event that another murder does happen, may I count on your photo-taking abilities once more?

[gluttoning]

[Belphie is so good at sleeping it's true.]

If we have to, then sure. So long as I have battery. You can even use it, if you want.

Just, uh. Just give it back. Once it's out of power, I can't just make it work again.

[dupiety]

By battery, do you speak of the need to charge our devices every so often?

[Do they actually need to be charged? I'm making shit up so Temenos doesn't have to ask what a fucking battery is.]

Are you not able to do the same with that one?

[gluttoning]

[He shakes his head.] I have to ask Raptor about it. The device I got when I came here is fine, but I'm just worried about my D.D.D.

If it dies, then that's fine. It's not necessary right now. But it's useful to have.

[dupiety]

Very useful indeed. A picture provides a good reference and indisputable proof of events for those who were not present at the scene.

[No one tell him about photo tampering.]

I will certainly keep its battery life in mind if I ever need of its services.

[gluttoning]

Mm. I'll keep it safe for now, just in case.
