EPONA + RATATOSKR + TIAMAT + JACK PANTHER

[You are ushered out of the parlor and into a cozy sitting room. The storm continues to rage outside, but a roaring fire keeps the room nice and toasty.

As you enter, you find your clothes have changed to something vaguely 1940s Noir-ish and appropriate to your character. You all look very dapper, though you may be surprised to suddenly find yourself cross-dressing. At the same time, knowledge suddenly enters your mind- the role you will be playing in tonight's performance, information on some of your fellow guests, and the rules of the game, as well as the setup for the story.
]

[RULES:
THIS IS A MURDER MYSTERY GAME! Investigate your surroundings, speak to your fellow guests, and solve the mystery! Points will be given for completing goals and appropriate IC roleplaying.

You can make private, friends-locked posts to other players for secret discussions, but you MUST include [personal profile] squeakofthedevil on the filter and drop a link here!]

NOTE: In this group, the parts of Kira Graves and Tod Mises are unclaimed. ICly, Kira will have been unable to attend due to both of her children being ill. Tod simply refused the invitation because he thinks his dad is a jerk.

[....fuck, now I'm sad. I COULD HAVE BEEN HAPPY, ADORABLE, AND WELL FED.]

[So he was just looking at the last ten years. HUM.]

[Well, let's open this envelope, I don't see why I'd need to keep it sealed!]
thevoidsdarkhorse: (WELP)

[personal profile] thevoidsdarkhorse 2014-04-30 04:40 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh.]

[Oooooh.]

[Okay.]

[I am setting aside the letters for now. Will get to those in a minute.]

[Let's open up papa's will.]
carptricks: (As if you actually)

[after his own investigation came up short]

Did you find anything useful?
thevoidsdarkhorse: (Not sure that means what you think it me)

[personal profile] thevoidsdarkhorse 2014-04-30 04:44 am (UTC)(link)
I have letters for mother and Angela.

And a will.

Also dad really liked candid shots of us.
carptricks: (Default)

[personal profile] carptricks 2014-04-30 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose the letters should be delivered to their respective owners, though I must admit the temptation to open them now is strong.

Is there anything in the will that might point to a culprit?
thevoidsdarkhorse: (I'm too cool for school)

[personal profile] thevoidsdarkhorse 2014-04-30 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
I can ask them what's in it. It's addressed to them and I know my mother wouldn't do this and Angela DEFINITELY wouldn't.

[Reading this will.]

....

[Leaning over and whispering.]

All right, I do not have proper societal context for this. Is this obvious murder motive in here or not?
carptricks: (And we'll stir)

[personal profile] carptricks 2014-04-30 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
[keeping character as he answers]

That would depend on how much is in his personal accounts. If it's a hefty sum, then I would say you and your siblings have fine motives for murder.
thevoidsdarkhorse: (Well ain't that a sight)

[personal profile] thevoidsdarkhorse 2014-04-30 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
[Leaning back. All right, thinking on that. Then will look surprised.]

I-I guess so? But I only found out about this just now! And neither my brother nor sister are here.

[Though...perhaps...]

We should deliver the letters. [Putting the will in the envelope.]
carptricks: (that aren't there anymore)

[personal profile] carptricks 2014-04-30 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, let's. I must admit I'm highly intrigued.
thevoidsdarkhorse: (Now let me think)

[personal profile] thevoidsdarkhorse 2014-04-30 04:59 am (UTC)(link)
And after that...

How good would you say you are at reading surprise? [Heading for the door.]
carptricks: (In a young girls heart)

[personal profile] carptricks 2014-04-30 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
Quite good, actually.

[following her]
thevoidsdarkhorse: (Well lets see....)

[personal profile] thevoidsdarkhorse 2014-04-30 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
Then perhaps we should read the will aloud and see who reacts.
carptricks: (then you'll see)

[personal profile] carptricks 2014-04-30 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
[his mouth twitches a bit in amusement]

I have quite the impressive reading voice, too.
thevoidsdarkhorse: (is cool man)

[personal profile] thevoidsdarkhorse 2014-04-30 05:06 am (UTC)(link)
[She grins.] Excellent.
thevoidsdarkhorse: (Now let me think)

[personal profile] thevoidsdarkhorse 2014-04-30 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
[...Phil sounds kind of awesome.]

[Paaaaause.]

[Is this....motive for murder?]
