That was dramatic of me. I suppose I didn't know him? But, you know, never a good day to find yourself in a mysterious situation where you have no idea what will happen and people start turning up dead.
I didn't either. We only spoke once. [ and he's clearly messed up about it too, is the point. how many goose feathers are here. molly, your coat. ] Being brought here against our will was bad enough, but yesterday... None of that was natural. The locked doors, everyone heading back inside, that sleep, the message--!
[ he has to stop listing stuff because he is clearly going to punch something ]
'Course, 'course. Really doubt he fell over dead on his own volition on the most suspiciously weird night possible. Question is by who or what. Considering all the illusions and tricks.
That'd probably be the best case scenario. [ if it was a geese, versus... all the other much worse options. but also, he has to ask: ] How'd you end up like this anyway?
[ all goose'd up with nowhere to go. he plucks another feather for emphasis ]
Those are... from the school pajamas, right? Unless someone decided to take a dip fully dressed, this might actually be from whatever happened last night.

[yeah the chain of evidence is so wild right now. I think Caleb has the other one? Who's to say. Molly just thinks and then looks surprised at the "school pajamas" revelation. He probably just sleeps naked and has never thought of pajamas in his whole life.]
Oh-- Good idea! Hell, they could have been running. Shoes like this tend to come off when you're moving fast.
[ honestly completely fair what the fuck is a pajama. yamato nods ]
Right. We should check to see what other people have found. Individually, they're little pieces, but... we might get something out of all of them together. [ a beat ] So for once one of us didn't fight a goose for no reason.

[He stops and sort of. Laughs? But like that kind of half-hysterical laugh when you think of a very dark joke.]
Actually I can't think of a time I've been worse. So. No?
no subject
[ he's not sure what to say to that, so he'll start by leaning and trying to help pick some feathers off of molly. ]
This whole thing is fucked up.

This wasn't an accident. That guy was murdered.

[He sniffs.]
Maybe the geese did that too.

Picked the wrong fight. Over that.
[Gesturing to the bear slipper.]
Don't know why really, except I've got a problem where if I see something interesting, I can't exactly let it go.
