day two

[guestcontrol]

dreamland day two 40 players remaining. There are no clocks in your dorm room to help you mark the passing of time, but at a certain point, in the early hours of the morning, a cheerful chime tune plays over the loudspeaker. Whether you're awake or asleep, the door to your dorm room is now unlocked. You'll have about a forty five minutes, in which you can get ready or grab some breakfast, before the door that allows you into the park unlocks. By this time, you may or may not have noticed that one of your number is missing. The chimes play again, to announce that the park is open, and the rides and music begin to come back to life as a voice plays over the loudspeaker. "Rise and shine! Let's have a lot of fun today, or at least all of you who are left!" You will have until 4 PM to explore the park and talk amongst yourselves. Somewhere in the park, you'll find the body of Fuyuhiko Kuzuryuu. rulebook character statuses private conversations graveyard Voting will close at 10 PM EST on September 27.

Oh, I can help! [Don't let her help...] Do you think...would it be possible to make Oreos?

[flatview]

[ she prods at the body's foot with her parasol, as if the gaping chest wound wasn't enough of an indicator that he was dead. ]

Did they think he was a VIP...? That kid was kinda quiet.

[mediumburgers]

Hamburgers?

[ A girl can dream. ]

[poyoyon]

[ THAT IS TOTALLY WHAT YOU DO WHEN YOU HEAR AN EXPLOSION. Ibuki is the person Maya stumbles backwards into...luckily they don't topple over. ]

E-eh?! Someone - someone exploded?!

[shortcutter]

[Shit. Levi has seen enough people grieving over corpses for several lifetimes, but the sight never fails to send a queasy chill through his entire body. He keeps a respectful distance, allowing the people who know her and the victim to have their time. Only after most of them clear out does he quietly approach.]

I didn't do enough.

If you're going to bury him, there are people who can help.

[chronic]

Dunno. Maybe it was a vendetta, maybe random chaos. Either way, it doesn't benefit us. At this rate we can't vote 'no one' again.

[edealistical]

No...!

[Edea is close behind and comes to a screeching halt as she clasp a hand over her mouth.]

This is just what I feared happening. People are beginning to give in to their panic...

[poyoyon]

Of course! Ibuki would never...give up on the others! Even if...

[ SOMETHING LIKE THIS...

Ibuki doesn't shake Clash's hand off, but frowns, eyes sliding away from the scene of the crime. ]

...To...break us up...Fuyuhiko-chan was the one who calmed Ibuki down yesterday...

[ineptus]

It's okay. It's not like we could know this would happen.

[Brave face, Mabel. You have to stay focused. You have to figure out who did this.]

Where do we start...?

[edealistical]

What?

[That was an abrupt change in topic. Edea blinks for a moment before shaking her head.]

It was not a decision I remember making. From the time I was very young, I knew what my future would hold - I would take up my Father's position when I grew to be of age.

[fanbase]

Well, you should think about what he'd tell you right now. He's still with you in that way, right?

[cakelover]

Oooh! Good going, Takashi!

[ Honey is...not trying to win tickets at the moment, but has some cotton candy, instead.

Helpful... ]

[mediumburgers]

[ Maya reads the whole thing. Okay, the whole thing minus Gundam's article, she just skims that one. ]

These papers are great, Aya! They're really useful!

[ Though are most of the submissions from Ibuki... Maya makes a mental note to come up with something to submit later. ]

[cheats]

[ Ciel comes running with everyone else when he hears the bang, even though he knows that he really shouldn't. It would be better to just stay and not see it, but he's going to worry every time he hears things like this now. He sees Yuya and grimaces, and he feels a pressure in his chest, because looking at things like this... It's difficult.

Nanami's screams at least draw him out of staring at the body in horror, and to distract himself more than her, truthfully, he approaches to try and calm her. ]

I— [ ciel sucks at comforting people though, sorry nanami ] We don't need to see this... This is cruel.

[flatview]

[ Well. She can't say she wouldn't blow someone up for fun if she was given the opportunity, so she stays silent on that point.

She's in an agreeable mood, though, that's for sure. ]

....uh-uh. We're dropping like flies at this rate.

[terci]

Y-yeah.. [He looks back over to the body.]

Well I guess we should see what the cause of death is. [Are you prepared to become close and personal with a dead body, Mabel?]

[poyoyon]

Eh? What's that?

[ Assuming she's...done the gravedigging Dangan stuff and calmed down a little.......... ]

[mediumburgers]

[ At least there's no cute girl pileup next to the dead body. Maya jumps a bit because ahhh sudden person behind her but is relieved when it's Ibuki, not anyone murderous. ]

I guess so...! There's a special role that does that, right?

[mediumburgers]

So someone panicked and blew a guy up..? That's insane!

[ How does that even happen, Maya is so confused right now. ]

[edealistical]

This must be the work of the Detonator. Paired partners die immediately with their pairs....

[Edea shakes her head.]

This was the work of one of us. We... We are no longer innocent in this affair.

[flatview]

This crossword puzzle is unsolvable!

[ holding her copy up in ibuki's face ]

[flatview]

Would the paired partner immediately die, or would there be a wait like this, though? [ .... ] I don't think the rulebook said anything about the detonator having to kill the partner of a dead person, either. The wording made it seem like it could be any old random person.

[chronic]

Yeah. Maybe it's time to trust what Levi says.

[poyoyon]

What he'd say...

[ Well, it's easy enough to picture. Probably there'd be a lot of scolding. ]

Yep. In that way...for sure.

[edealistical]

...No. What I mean is - this was an unprovoked death. I don't believe this could have been connected to Fuyuhiko for the same reasons you've said.

Someone just... chose someone to kill. Out of the blue.
