Chapter 1: Abnormal Days

Attention! A body has been found! That's right, a body has been found! Report to the hallway on the way to the cafeteria! A body, I'm so proud!

[Maybe you go to the hallway. Standing in fear is Lev, staring at Jakub, who is holding Tony's bloodied corpse.]

[had been looking up at the ceiling during Yuri's announcement, but now turns to look at him with a puzzled, confused frown]

She--

She's dead.

[give him some direction, please]

["NO SHIT" he wants to say, but he can tell he's just as horrified as he is... he thinks. probably. he's kinda hard to read]

D-Don't touch her! You're gonna... mess up the scene or whatever or -- j-just put her down!

[his face feels cold. he didn't think anyone would seriously go to this length...]

Ah--

[carefully lays her down on her back, feeling his heart pound in his chest]

[stays kneeling next to her and looks at her still face]

...

D-do you...

What, um...

...

[his eyes drop to the scissors on the ground, and he numbly points at them]

There...

Hm?

Oh - th-they are bloody - so that's how--

[his stomach grumbles loudly, and after a brief moment of flailing he takes Tony'd cold hand in apology]

Uh, I'm sorry! You're dead and I, I make noises..!

[makes an even weirder noise - a mix of hiccup, sob and "uhn" - because he's being rude - right? - and this classmate whose name he doesn't know will think badly of him and how do you treat a corpse right?]

S-Stop touching her!

[it's completely grossing him out]

L-Look... I'm sure we're all hungry and tired and exhausted and... I mean, we just need to stay calm and... and figure out who...

[swallow]

Did you see anyone...?

[thinks about it, then shakes his head]

[spots

stoled lurking behind the corner as he looks around, however, and points at her]

Well, um, maybe she did?

[he follows his point, and nods... but from the look on her face, it does't seem like she wants to come over]

I'll go ask... Stay here, and don't let people mess with her, alright? We have to... to keep the scene intact, or else we might lose clues, or...

[swallow. he can't stand looking at all the blood. he turns to go talk to Missy]

[gives him a small nod as he heads over to her]

[looks at the body again]

...

How do you feel? Is it okay? Are you away now? Outside? Souls can go through walls, right?

[briefly touches her hand again - somehow it's easier this way, when she won't talk and laugh and call out and move and do all kinds of unpredictable people things]

Pizza face? [approaching you ok]

[turns around and puts a finger on his lips in a "shhhh" motion]

Hello.

This girl died.

Tony...

She was my best friend...

[SOBS]

What, really?

[frowns in worry, or confusion, or both, he cannot even tell]

[looks back and forth between you and the body, conflicted - who needs more comfort? how does he give it? or would that be bad? do you need time alone now?]

...

Her name was Tony?

[NODS]

[Sniffle]

[just sits on the floor uselessly with his worried frown]

[keeps looking back and forth between you and her]

[It's ok!]

[She's just gonna........ run away to her room crying now sdlkfjlk]

Ah--!

[breaks off; he doesn't know what to say]

[looks after you, then turns back to Tony and frowns all the harder (it'll probably give him a headache before long, but there are just too many things he doesn't understand or know how to handle)]

[okay he's back. and mad]

Sh-She was saying idiotic things like - that she was evil, and was going to kill her first, and...

[he shakes his head, trying to relax]

What, really?

[somehow fell into the habit of whispering while he was away]

Isn't that, uh...

Um...

["suspicious"]

Like she wants us not to think that she did have something...

[trails off and frowns as he sees how distressed he is]

Are you, ah, okay? I mean--

... [nod] It is. We should keep an eye on her, in case she...

[swallow]

I'm alright. Just... I didn't think anyone would actually - It was a joke, everyone said...

[rubs his temples to ward off the headache he feels coming]

What do we do now? Do we have to stay here? But then how do we find out who..?

...

Would it be good if I stay here and you, um...

["investigate"]

[his stomach growls again]

[he doesn't really want to stay out in the corridor where so many people come by, but the thought of talking to everyone instead is worse, and if no one else wants to be close to a corpse, then she would be all alone]

[he looks at him]

...No, no, you... you sound really hungry. [he is, too, but he's used to that] You can go and get breakfast. I'll... I'll stay here and make sure no one disturbs the scene.

[swallow]

People should be coming by, so I'll ask about suspicious figures.

[though now he's a little suspicious of Missy]

Okay.

[stands up, stopping the whispering now that he's taking over the dead watch for him]

I, I'll bring you something - what do you like?

...Anything.

[then shakes his head]

Never mind. I don't think I can eat.

[nods, but starts frowning again]

[he thinks that he looks really pale and sick, but is it alright to bring that up? he probably already knows and doesn't need a reminder, and besides it's not like he could really help him with that anyway]

...

[abruptly turns away and walks to the cafeteria without looking back]

[he has probably stared into his eyes for long enough to make him upset now]
