[Fin] Murder U Too - Endgame

[SmilyCube112]

Bakugo, who only just woke up, is wandering around wondering wtf is happening with everyone, as he heads to the Cafeteria to get something to eat for breakfast.

[wahoothis]

"Ever heard about respecting the dead. . ." Ranma grumbled with annoyance, just giving up trying to reason with her. "If you know who the killer is, then tell us so we can get it over with already. Or, don't tell me, "you don't feel like it."" He spoke with noticeable chagrin, walking over to the print on the neck. Even if Ms. "I keep dead people's belongings because I'm a kleptomaniac bitch" doesn't really do anything to help, they can probably do a hand check on Doug's neck.

>Is there anything he can find under Doug's body?

[Despair's Archon of Memes]

...Maybe there are footprints?

>Search for any unusual or out-of-place footprints

[artsyGeek]

[ooc: Haruka meant kleptomania instead of kleptomaniac. sorry for the grammar error]

Haruka decides to > search for a fingerprint dusting thingy.

[Huney]

"Hey, ya know what! I thiiiink, you can have his stuff afterward! For now, let's focus on finding the culprit, okay? Who do you think?"

[Florien]

What's this "respect for the dead" thing? They're dead. They're not coming back. Therefore, their former body doesn't need the life-stuff it had... Wait. Wait. Naegi, is it? I'm holding you to that. I'm taking his stuff afterwards. Now, though I am more than a little... surprised that you haven't solved it yet, based on the evidence you've accrued, I suppose you have not had to deal with situations similar to this before, so it is quite justified that none of you have my level of experience. Remind me to tell you the story of the last time I helped handle a situation like this.

Though no part of her is exposed to the outside, she looks somehow mildly smug that she figured it out before everyone else.

You see, it's that "Cookie Monster" thing. It did it. Note the flat nature of the hands that did the murder, note the similarly blue threads, note the heavy cloth which makes up the exterior of the cloth golem and the nature of the thread lining up well! The evidence fits quite clearly. Now, shall we get ourselves some extrajudicial violence on with, or do you need more convincing? And after we're done there, can we please get to the "Why thank you Kellensea, you're very smart to have thought of all that, of course you can take all the stuff from the room!"

[wahoothis]

Ranma looked at her, arms crossed. ". . ." Yeesh, and he thought he had an ego issue here. ". . . Are you sure about that? Are you really sure that blue thing is the killer?" He asked, wanting to be sure about all this. "What you said made sense. There is that blue cloth. . . But isn't that strange? Look around this room: There's barely any evidence, like someone cleaned it. Yet he didn't notice a piece of his own fabric falling off during it? There's also the fact of what you said: They were able to kill someone with a silent neck snap. Like you said, there should've been some struggling and screaming, yet from what you implied, the killer had skill in this department. And no offense to Cookie Monster, but he doesn't exactly seem. . . there in places. Hell, the first thing he asked for were some cookies when we all arrived here. Pretty sure the last thing that giant blue coat of sugar would be worrying about is murdering someone. For all we know, he could be framed, so let's not jump the shark on this one." He took a deep breath after that winded argument. "There still could be more we've missed."

[artsyGeek]

"Blue cloth, huh..?"

Haruka stops to think, before realising something.

"Hold on, give me a mo."

> Compare each and every student's clothing to the blue cloth

[Billy5545]

"I'll aid you with that, Haruka."

> Let Haruka examine Rosa's clothing to match the blue fiber.

[Florien]

Luck is more adequate at explaining an... Look, see, the rules of reality could be... You wait and see. I'll be vindicated. The monster did it. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'll be awaiting my apology and reward of everything in this room. Or perhaps my summons to the meeting wherein I will be vindicated. Probably the latter before the former, but nonetheless. I await both eagerly, as the truth in my words roars like a dragon, except with marginally less economic terrorism involved in the aftermath of my words dying. If you need me, I'll be in my secured area.

Kellensea strides off in a very obvious huff, and travels through the vents back to the office, where she awaits her summoning to, in her mind at least, be vindicated.

[Huney]

"I, uh... the doors work just fine, miss!" Komaru isn't quite threatened by Kellensea, but she is worried. For whom, she isn't so sure yet...

"Oh, well, my clothes have blue, but just so you're sure..."

>She gives herself for examining too.

[wahoothis]

He just nonsubtly flicks her off as she left. "Egocentric jackass. . ." Ranma didn't know Cookie Monster that well either, but he didn't exactly seem to be the type to go into someone's room and snap someone's neck. Even if he was, could he have really. Last time he checked, Cookie Monster wasn't that monstrous in size. And Doug's a pretty big guy. He'd probably have a hard time snapping his neck, at least this skillful and with such provision. "Mind if I look at the blue fiber too?" Ranma said, walking over. If they do a test, Ranma's still dressed in his red gi, so it obviously doesn't belong to him.

>Examine the blue fiber. Is there anything about it, like if it was cut or torn?

[SmilyCube112]

Bakugo, after finishing his breakfast, decides to look in the Storage Room for anything of interest.

[Dookie]

The blue Cookie Monster, asleep after a long night, gets up and goes to where all the racket is coming from.

“Hello-GAAAH!”

He jumps after seeing Doug's body.

>Check for footprints

[madface7]

Krabs wakes up and heads to Doug's room.

"What's all the commotion abou-"

He then sees Doug's corpse.

"...Arr... I'm too tired for this crap."

[Kennifer]

Sorry for missing out on this when my character was nearby, I needed to use the sleep.

Alexis has been hanging back a bit, processing what everyone was saying and thinking over the notes she'd made about everyone. As much as she didn't care for the adventurer's attitude about everything, there might be a point about the Cookie Monster, at least when it came to the fiber and lack of fingerprints on Doug's neck. She'd offer her own clothing for comparison of course; she knew the gray jeans and striped shirt she was wearing didn't even have any blue in them.

She also wanted to be thorough, and... there'd been someone under the bed, right?

>Look under the bed.

[Dookie]

Cookie Monster looks at the fiber.

“You saying....no, me would never kill a person! Except for cookies maybe......but dead person has no cookies...or does dead person?”

> Check for cookies

[Caret]

Wait a minute...

Bow turns to everyone else. She starts speaking nervous, almost as if she knew something that would get her killed.

I-I have an firsthand account of what happened last night. It's not about the murder itself, but it might help us  narrow down who killed Doug. Any one want to hear it?

[madface7]

Krabs points to Bow. "Speak up, lass. We're waitin'."

[Despair's Archon of Memes]

Sure. Anything helps.

[Kennifer]

"Yeah, I'd like to hear it too."

Alexis takes out her notepad and pen.

[wahoothis]

"Whatever helps. . . Fox dog thing?" Ranma was really hoping this brown animal thing wasn't a type of cat. Because if she was, he'd be freaking the fuck out.

[Caret]

Bow nods, and then takes a deep breath before giving out her info dump.

So last night, I decided to take a stroll in the vents to check for anything suspicious, and guess what I found? Kellensea, camping out in the balcony vent. Then, I noticed someone else was approaching the vent. It was Kai You know, that chef? Kai then entered the vents went towards Kellensea. I tried to get a closer look, but then Kellensea decided to attack me! Luckily, I didn't get hurt. Anyways, when I returned the balcony vent, the two where gone. At first, I thought they were out for each other's blood, but now? I'm pretty sure those two were working with each other. What they were working together on probably wasn't a good thing. Again, this is just something to consider.

[wahoothis]

Ranma scratched his chin. "Now that I think about it. . . Kellensea has been pretty controlling this entire time. She's the one who's discovered how the victim died. And correct me if I was wrong, but wasn't Kai already in here before anyone else entered?" He said, with his arms crossed.

[Despair's Archon of Memes]

Maybe either or both of them could have been planning to frame Cookie Monster for the murder by planting that blue fiber there... a sort of red herring, if you will...
