Chapter 2: Abnormal Days
Attention everyone! A body has been found! A body! It's in the laboratory room! Hop to it! This is so exciting!
[There's an excited giggle before it cuts off.]

/head shake/
I don't want to talk to Lev, you go do it. My camera scares him because he's a superstitious idiot and I won't get anything out of him.
/also she wants to talk to Lia/
/and before he can argue she's walking past him and scanning the room for her to strike up conversation/

[oh hell no]
[he doesn't want to talk to the tree killer either]
No-- no, talk to him and Lia, then! You can turn the camera off. He--
[runs after her so he can lower his voice]
He doesn't like me at all, and I don't like him.
[leaves her with that and steers towards his own first interrogation victim]

/sigh/
Fine, but you owe me!
/She watches him go and then goes herself to talk to both Lev and Lia to try to get what she can out of it... and turn off her camera just for Lev. He's such a baby./

[nods] Where would a guy like Roma hide, that's the question...
Shut up.
[It might. Maybe if he just tries harder! He walks away from him to another spot in the room. They're on the second floor, there's got to be a better chance.]

[blinks, taken aback]
[he is so unfriendly... but he has to interrogate him!]
Wait.
[follows swiftly]
Where were you when the murder announcement happened?
[he is so unfriendly... but he has to interrogate him!]
Wait.
[follows swiftly]
Where were you when the murder announcement happened?
My room. Why, where were you?
[Is he trying to interrogate him? He shakes his head. Surely he doesn't believe he's capable of doing such a despicable thing to someone.]
[No reception. He groans and walks to a new space. Is he going to keep following?]

Nemo and that annoying girl who wanted to steal my clothes were here before I was.
[He suddenly stops frustrated that the phone isn't working and raises it above his head to hurl it at the wall - then stops and sighs, turning toward him.]
I don't know anything other than that, I'm sorry.

[stares at him with a slight frown, more worried than suspicious]
And...
Do you have any idea - any idea at all who most possibly killed her?
["most probably", he means]
[isn't this boy a nerd? that's what Prudence called him and the small girl, right? aren't nerds supposed to be smart?]
Also... why did the glasses girl want to steal your clothes? That's suspicious, or not?

[He is smart but he's also been depressed and freaking out lately and he thinks he's developed a permanent eye twitch from it all. He hasn't been paying attention and it's terrifying.]
I-I don't know. She was loud, wasn't she? Did she annoy someone too much? And think it is, highly so! Who in their right mind wants someone else's clothing?!
[And disturbing. He shudders.]
A-are you trying to stop this, is that it? Y-you'll pat yourself on the back when the killer is found and they die, and this starts all over again?

/idly watching the conversation go down from the sidelines/
/It's too interesting to interrupt yet. So she'll just snap a photo of it/
/... and then hide the camera from Lev. Acne kid owes her big time./

It is just something that I no--
[she heard a click oh god what is that noise]
[looking around and-- well, a camera would do it, huh]
[still, smiling a little nervously, this situation is a little weird still]
I am in your way, no?

[CAMERAS]
[he shoots her a look and holds a hand up]
If you're gonna take a picture, say so!
[ugh. he manages to get to his feet and steps away from the mop]
S-So... Then, this came from -- I mean, this mop had to come from somewhere, right?

Oh no I was just coming over to ask you two where you were. But you seem to be going through it already so I'll just listen.
/okay OKAY jeez she watches... and takes a picture of the mop/
Cleaning closet?
/okay OKAY jeez she watches... and takes a picture of the mop/
Cleaning closet?
Ah!
[less nervous smiling, come on girl wow them with your English phrasebook teachings]
The cleaning closet is down the hall.
[NAILED IT]

[fuckin' ESL, more like ESLosers]
[he nods slowly]
Then we should check there, right? There's bound to be... I mean, there's nothing of use here, so we might as well check out there.
[he starts walking towards the hall. getting away from the dead body sounds like a great idea]
...As for me, I was using the restroom in my room when the announcement came on. [it sure helped his poop come out]
[he nods slowly]

/She did not need to know that and makes a gagging face behind his back, then turns to Lia./
Where were you?
/She doesn't know about her language problem, and waits for a second before turning to follow him. She'll keep quiet about why she's asking around for now, but if they pay attention her eyes are still red-rimmed from crying earlier./

Ah, where.. was I?
[thinking]
Ah! Yes. I was sleeping with my husband!
[ nod nod ]

[he stops because he knows that word]
Your --
[he turns and looks at her, confusion an understatement]
Wh-- Your who?

/That makes two of them because she's giving her a look as if she just grew a second head./
What?
/And in the back of her mind she remembers Yakub saying something about being with her and is she serious, they're together?!?! No way./
What?

Uh?! I--
Yes, I-- I am trying to help stop it. And-- I don't want it to start again! I hope that this trial is going to be the last one.
[that they will have another trial in the first place is unbelievable - he still has trouble understanding that Tony was really purposefully murdered by one of them; how could it happen again?]
