week 1, saturday

[alteracion]

[ anywhere, in this instance, will find grace poking around in the opium room. she is holding up one of the charcoals with a tong when she sees harrow and she waves with it ]

Did you ever had to solve murders back home?

[bonetiddies]

[Oh. She'll wave back, although she wasn't necessarily planning to stop inside.]

. . . Yes. But not like this, exactly.

[alteracion]

Hmm. The closest thing I had to deal with were the train's stupid puzzles. They're not usually this ...

[ she drops the charcoal back and sighs ]

No, never mind, I can't even call it difficult, it's just stupid.

[bonetiddies]

I'd call it difficult. We haven't solved it. But. . . I feel as though there's a piece we've been missing all along.

[alteracion]

Like a whole body?

[bonetiddies]

In this instance, yes, but I mean more. . . globally. We keep finding evidence we don't understand, that we don't even know where it came from.

[alteracion]

Right. People talked about powers being given from the Aspects, but... Do you think that's what this was? And that wouldn't really account for last week, would it?

[bonetiddies]

. . . I haven't gotten anything. But I was told it would be possible as soon as we started killing one another. So it could have happened last week, too?

Somehow, I don't think so - I don't think there's evidence we haven't found, just evidence we don't understand.

[alteracion]

I don't know that I understood any of it. Did they drag him around naked?

[ why were his clothes. in his closet. ]

[bonetiddies]

They hung his clothes up, and made his bed.

[It's so completely strange.]

[alteracion]

But they also beat him with a Toblerone?

[ allegedly? ]

[bonetiddies]

I couldn't say. His clothes were covered in blood, but there wasn't any way to glean a wound.

[alteracion]

I guess they could've dragged the Toblerones in blood, but... Ugh, I don't know. It's dumb.

[bonetiddies]

[She sort of. . . a really stupid idea occurs to her.]

. . . You know how, if you put rotting food in the refrigerator, it's replaced?

[alteracion]

[ ...... ]

Do you think it'd have worked with his dead body?

[bonetiddies]

[This idea is. . . stupid, but it is less stupid than Kaz becoming a Toblerone, so she's willing to entertain it for a moment.]

I do have access to parts of a corpse. [Gesturing at her bones.] We could see what happens.

[alteracion]

...... Honestly, we might as well exhaust all possible options?

[ grace would rather this than the cannibal possibility haunting her, so! ]

[bonetiddies]

[Well, what happens is actually that. When she puts bones in the fridge and closes it. It just makes more bones. Which she sees delighted by. She immediately starts adding more bones.]

[alteracion]

[



okay, grace watches her and lets her do this for maybe a little too long ]

So that's a no?

[bonetiddies]

No. I suppose not.

[Her skeleton, though. So many bones.]

[alteracion]

... Well, at least now you know how to get extras, so it's not a total loss?

[ i hate that grace is rooting for harrow's goth appeal ]

[bonetiddies]

Yes, a good development. I was told I ought to ask Gluttony if I wanted bones, but it turns out Gluttony is a rank bitch and the worst, so this method is better.

[alteracion]

[ stop she's laughing ]

What did Gluttony do to you? They're on Takeru's shit list, too.

[bonetiddies]

[She knows.]

Remember how both Grell Sutcliffe and HK-47 ran around for two weeks saying, by the way, I'm obviously a danger and a threat to anyone, and it was supposed to be cute and charming?

It's a little like that.

[alteracion]

Okay, but it wasn't cute and charming there, either. [ grace complained about both so much ] Also, considering the Avatars apparently can't be killed, that's not great.
