Chapter 1: Abnormal Days

[iruy]

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.]

[That's okay. Violet's hugs tend to be warm and tight. It's kind of sad that she's relying on a little kid now. But it really says something about her situation when that's not the weirdest thing that happened this morning.]

Th-thank you...

[...she was right, she does give good hugs.]

Uh- you're welcome.

[and it feels a lot better to be seen as helping than literally latching on to someone for support.]

[misspell]

[She nods, and buries her head deeper into you. You might also notice that she's putting a lot of her weight on you as well...as petite as she is, it might be an inconvenience.]

[tries leaning back- more like pushing, it turns into, in an effort to keep balanced]

[misspell]

[Leaning back is not going to really work when she's practically slumping over you right now and drenching you with her salty tears.]

[doesn't want to say anything, but she's getting heavy...]

[on second thought, maybe it's necessary to say-]

Uh, hey-!

[-too late. crumpling onto the floor, now.]

[misspell]

[She feels herself falling...is this really what despair is supposed to be like? But then she also feels you squirming under her so she quickly comes to her senses and gets off you right away.]

Oh no! I'm so sorry! Are-are you alright?

[springs back up]

Think so. Are you...?

[that sure was a failure of a hug.]

[misspell]

Hmm? [She's still very sniffly, if that's what you meant.]

[(Anonymous)]

Never mind...

[what's that damp feeling- oh, it's tears finally soaking through the hoodie.]

[tugs on it to look and vaguely frowns at the spot]

[Operation: Calm Down was only a bit of a success]

[misspell]

No, really, I...I appreciate it. [She nods and tries to force a smile, but it doesn't really come out.]

Oh... good.

[brings a sleeve up to wipe away tears and leaves it there. Not sure how to deal with other people in this situation...]

[misspell]

So I guess...what do we do now?

6

[(Anonymous)]

...figure it out. We have to..

[misspell]

But how a-are we going to possibly...

6

[(Anonymous)]

We have to look...

[Lowers hand to glance at the scene.]

Didn't even try breaking out yet. Some idiot did it. Maybe they left a lot of clues.

[misspell]

Like...like a mystery? W-well! I guess we'd have to solve it anyways, or else...we'd all die...

[Waterworks are charging up again...]

6

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, but... we'll find out.

[Shoulder-pats... hesitantly. Not used to this comforting thing but please don't start again you'll trigger a chain reaction]

Someone killed her but fifteen of us didn't and we all want to find who did... right?

[misspell]

[Violet nods.] I-I guess that you're right...I mean. But we all need to work together and...and is that even p-possible?

[(Anonymous)]

I don't know... doesn't have to be all of us, just enough to figure it out.

[misspell]

I...I'll help. I just don't really know how.

[(Anonymous)]

...did you see anything weird yesterday? I mean, after I talked to you.

[misspell]

I don't think so...I just went straight to bed.

6

[(Anonymous)]

Guess you could, uh, 's best if we pay attention and... look at her? I looked a little.

[misspell]

[She pauses, then takes a deep breath, and then nods.]

Kay. I'll help!
