This is your notebook. Any information you uncover will be stored here, for you to review later. - [[Victim|NChad]] - [[Suspects]] - [[Witnesses]] - [[Inventory]] (link-goto: "Close Notebook", $lastPassage)

You follow the (text-colour:#f76707)[don] out of the elevator and into the lobby. Unlike usual the dormitory is empty. No security officer, no university students standing around chatting. With exams coming to an end, most people had already moved off campus for the summer, but there should still be people here. This has to be connectted to getting dragged out of your room, and told to follow the (text-colour:#f76707)[don]. You stop briefly behind her as she fishes into her sweater, pulling out her key and opening the door to the building's large common room. She leaves you by the door as she moves into the room. As you look around, you notice a few other residents clustered around the room. By your guess, this must be close to everyone still in the building. (text-colour:#f76707)[Don Laura:] //Got the one you were looking for.// You turn to see who she’s talking to, recognizing the matching sweater that marked him as another don. (text-colour:red)[Don Will] you remember when he turns and walks over to you. [[Continue|Introductions]]

(text-colour:red)[Don Will:] //Good, you’re here. You probably have a million questions, so here it goes. There’s been a murder, and I need you to solve it!// [[What?|Other Explanations]] [[Why haven’t you called the police?|Explanations]]

(text-colour:red)[Don Will:] //Let’s be honest. This hasn’t been a great year. People aren’t exactly getting along, the community has kinda fallen apart.// He seems to be at his wit's end. (text-colour:red)[Don Will:] //These people aren’t exactly cooperative, so they’re certainly not gonna talk to the police. So I need you to solve it.// [[Why me?|Why]]

(text-colour:red)[Don Will:] //Well I’d do it myself, but these people see me as an authority figure, where as you, they see as a neighbour. Plus, you’re the Criminology major. You’re more qualified for this than I am.// [[What? No!|That's why]] [[I really think this is a matter for the police|Police]] [[That’s not what Criminology is|Crim]]

He waves off your comments, not seeming to give your words much thought. (text-colour:red)[Don Will:] //I get that this might be a bit scary and worrying, but I’m hoping it will also be exciting, fun, a chance to get to know your neighbours, and some good career experience.// [[Continue|The Scene]]

(text-colour:red)[Don Will:] //You probably need to know what happened. (text-colour:#63e6be)[Lillian Chadwick], you may have known them as (text-colour:#63e6be)[Chad] was killed. (text-colour:purple)[Chloe] and her friend (text-colour:blue)[Billy] discovered them dead in (text-colour:purple)[Chloe's Room] about an hour ago. (text-colour:grey)[Steaven Humannparson] was found standing over the body, so I’d start with him. Of course, you’re the expert here. I've stored (text-colour:#96f2d7)[Chad’s body] in the (text-colour:#fcc2d7)[kitchen]. If you want to take a look, I couldn’t see anything wrong, but again I’m not the expert.// [[Continue|With Notebook]]

(text-colour:red)[Don Will:] //I see you brought a notebook, good idea. You can use it to keep a record of your investigation. Oh, and here.// He hands you an (text-colour:#a61e4d)[apple]. (text-colour:red)[Don Will:] //These people can be tricky. I find they respond better if you have something to offer in return or something to hold over them.// You take the (text-colour:#a61e4d)[apple] from him, unsure of how exactly it’s going to help you here. (text-colour:red)[Don Will:] //Good luck. Come talk to me when you’ve found our murderer.// [[Begin|Main Room]] (Set: $lobj to 0) (Set: $tobj to 0) (set: $gobj to 0) (Set: $Apple to 0) (set: $Claudia to 0) (Set: $Rid to 0) (Set: $Table to 0) (Set: $Ridge to 0) (set: $NJ to 0) (set: $NCH to 0) (set: $NS to 0) (set: $NCl to 0) (set: $NF to 0) (set: $NM to 0) (set: $ND to 0) (set: $NFa to 0) (set: $Nb to 0)

The (text-colour:#d8f5a2)[''Common Room''] hasn’t changed much since you last visited it. Next to you, to the left of the door, is a group of sofas and chairs circling a tv, a sort of (text-colour:#eebefa)[''Lounge'']. Where a resident is currently resting. You recognize them as (text-colour:purple)[Chloe]. Pasted the sofas in the middle of the room. Another two residents have occupied one of the (text-colour:#d0bfff)[''Dining Tables''] and are playing cards. In the center of the inner wall is the door that leads to the (text-colour:#fcc2d7)[''Kitchen''] where (text-colour:red)[Don Will] has stored the (text-colour:#96f2d7)[body]. Over on the far opposite wall in the (text-colour:#bac8ff)[''Game Area''], you see two residents playing pool. (if: $Rid is 1)[You can see (text-colour:lime)[Ridge] is now waiting for you by the door.] And finally, standing next to you is (text-colour:red)[Don Will], who gathered everyone here. You’re sure of one thing everyone is far too chill given what happened.

(text-colour:purple)[Chloe] is seated on the couch along the far wall, scooched up close to the arm of the sofa staring at her nails. As you turn your head to look at the other chairs you spy something out of place stuck between two of the empty armchairs. She stops what she's doing as you enter the circle of chairs. (text-colour: Red)[Don Will] may not have explicitly said anything, but she knows your purpose here. Now where to start? [[Talk To Chloe|Chloe]] (if: $lobj is 0)[[Examine Object|Coffee]] [[Investigate Elsewhere|Main Room]] [[Open Notebook|Notebook]]

(text-colour:yellow)[Victoria], and (text-colour:#ffe066)[Fanny] have occupied the table closest to the window and started a game of cards. From what you remember, the two aren’t excellent friends, but (text-colour:red)[Don Will] has taken everyone’s phones. So they have to entertain themselves in some way. Just below (text-colour:yellow)[Victoria], wedged under the table leg, appeared to be a long cylindric thing of some kind. They don’t even bother to look up at you as you approach the table, too engrossed in the game. As far as you can tell, it seems to be some odd mix of poker, go fish, and euchre with potato chips as currency.

You’ve seen (text-colour:magenta)[Jim] and (text-colour:#f783ac)[Margaret] play billiards a few times throughout the year. To your understanding, they have some kind of competition going to see who can win the most games before the end of the year. (text-colour:magenta)[Jim] gives you a nod as you step to the edge of the table before returning to his game, and (text-colour:#f783ac)[Margaret] smiles at you with a friendly wave. Beyond the pool table is a folded up ping pong table that is rarely used. You can see a rigid piece of fabric wedged between the table and the leg. [[Speak to Jim|Jim]] (if: $seeM is 1)[[Speak to Margaret|Margaret]] (if: $GAobj is 0)[[Check out the fabric|Hat]] [[Investigate Elsewhere|Main Room]] [[Open Notebook|Notebook]]

He feels very out of place as you approach him, both because the people in the room are treating him like an outcast and because he doesn’t seem like he knows how to act around other people. Staring at you in some intense form of greeting as you approach. (text-colour:grey)[Steaven:] //Greetings fellow schoolmate, what do you?// His voice was deep and gravelly. It didn’t really match the rest of him.

You approach the solid grey door and attempt to open it, only to be met by resistance. The lock is key-activated. You quickly check your pockets for your (text-colour:#3bc9db)[key] and soon realize you don’t have it. Thus, you don’t have a way to examine (text-colour:#96f2d7)[the body].

She ignores you at first as you approach and continues to study her nails. When it becomes clear you’re not going away, she looks up at you. (text-colour:purple)[Chloe:] //What do you want?// (if: $chloe is 0)[[I just wanted to ask what happened?|Chloe’s version]] (if: $chloe1 is 1)[[Did you actually witness this?|Killer?]] (if: $chloe2 is 1)[[How were things between you and Chad?|Relationship]] (if: $chloe3 is 1)[[Why did you meet Billy in the laundry room?|Laundry]] (if: $bilfr is 1)[[I know Billy doesn’t actually live in the building, he admitted it to me.|Truth]] (if: $Challergy is 1)[[Was Chad allergic to something?|Challergy]] (if: $Chepi is 2)[[I couldn’t find Chad’s allergy pens.|Accused]] [[Investigate Elsewhere|Lounge]] [[Open Notebook|Notebook]] (set: $NCH to 1)

You reach between the armchairs and pull the object out into the open, discovering it to be a ceramic mug of (text-colour:orange)[coffee]. Which seemed to have been sitting there for at least a few hours but might still be drinkable if you’re desperate. ''Take the (text-colour:orange)[coffee]?'' [[Yes|Take the Coffee]] [[No|Don’t take the Coffee]]

She doesn’t look up at you as you approach, too fixated on her cards. You’re not yet sure of the rules of this game, but you think she has a good hand.

Her cards are most certainly not in her favour, and she looks to you happy for the brief pause before the inevitable happens.

Upon a closer look, you realize that the cylinder-like object is a (text-colour:#d9480f)[hammer] that someone has placed under the table leg to keep it from wobbling. ''Take the (text-colour:#d9480f)[Hammer]?'' [[Yes|Take the Hammer]] [[No|Don’t take the Hammer]]

He looks up and nods to you as you settle against the side of the table before looking back to the game. Wanting it to be clear that he was still listening while playing. (if: $jim is 0)[[Can we talk about you did this evening?|Evening]] (if: $jim1 is 1)[[Any idea why they were red-faced and coughing?|No Clue]] (if: $jim2 is 1)[[Did you see anyone else while you were there?|Sighting]] (if: $j is 1)[[Random beeping?|Hammertime]] (if: $scream is 2)[[I heard you got into an argument with Chad.|Fight]] [[Investigate Elsewhere|Game Area]] [[Open Notebook|Notebook]] (set: $NJ to 1)

You slam your shoulder into the door with a thud and groan of pain. The door remains closed. [[Step Back|Kitchen Door]] (set: $will to 1)

The door unlocks with a click. You turn the handle and push inward. [[Enter the Kitchen|Kitchen]] (set: $will to 2)

(text-colour:red)[Don Will:] //Sure! (text-colour:#63e6be)[Lillian Chadwick], you may have known them as (text-colour:#63e6be)[Chad] was killed. (text-colour:purple)[Chloe] and her friend (text-colour:blue)[Billy] discovered them dead about an hour ago. (text-colour:grey)[Steaven Huumannparson] was found standing over the body. And (text-colour:#96f2d7)[Chad’s body] is in the (text-colour:#fcc2d7)[kitchen].// [[Thanks.|Don Will]]

(text-colour:red)[Don Will:] //Are you sure?// [[Yes|Cover-up]] [[No|Don Will]]

You claim the mug to be your own. Securing it within your special coffee pocket on your jacket, and your brother said it wasn’t worth the extra 50 bucks. [[Focus back on the lounge|Lounge]] (set: $lobj to 1)

You decide that an old mug of (text-colour:orange)[coffee] probably isn’t helpful or safe, and you leave it where it was. [[Focus back on the lounge|Lounge]]

You never know when you might need a (text-colour:#d9480f)[hammer]! From carpentry to self-defence, an all-around helpful tool. You yank the (text-colour:#d9480f)[hammer] out from under the leg, jostling the table and causing an array of groans from the card players above, and hook it through your belt loop. [[Return To Your Investigation|Tables]] (set: $tobj to 1)

You leave the (text-colour:#d9480f)[hammer] be, not wanting to disturb the card game. [[Return To Your Investigation|Tables]]

(text-colour:purple)[Chloe:] //Me and (text-colour:#63e6be)[Chad] had been spending the day studying in my room. About like an hour ago, I went to go meet our friend (text-colour:blue)[Billy]. He lives up on the 8th, and he’s been really down lately cause of something. Anyway, I went to go meet our friend (text-colour:blue)[Billy] in the laundry, and then we went back up, and that creep was standing over their collapsed body. He killed them.// [[Continue|Chloe]] (set: $chloe to 1) (set: $chloe1 to 1) (set: $chloe2 to 1) (set: $chloe3 to 1) (set: $chb to 1) (set: $NCH1 to 1)

(text-colour:purple)[Chloe:] //We’re BFFs, (text-colour:#63e6be)[Chad] and I have known each other since their (text-colour:#38d9a9)[dad] started working for my (text-colour:#9c36b5)[mom].

(text-colour:purple)[Chloe:] //Well, the 8th floor is a boys-only floor, so I can’t very well go up there, can I? So I sent (text-colour:cyan)[Fredrick], (text-colour:blue)[Billy]’s friend, to get him when I need him. And (text-colour:blue)[Billy] always ends up lost, so I just wait in the laundry room. Cause, like all roads, lead there.// [[I guess that makes sense|Chloe]] (set: $NCH3 to 1) (set: $chloe3 to 2) (set: $seeF to 1)

(text-colour:purple)[Chloe:] //Okay, so fine, (text-colour:blue)[Billy] doesn’t live here. So what? That doesn’t change anything. My friend is still dead. Who cares about some stupid rule I shouldn't even have to follow.// [[Right, sorry|Chloe]] (set: $NCH4 to 1) (set: $bilfr to 2)

(text-colour:cyan)[Fredrick] came and got me from my room, said (text-colour:purple)[Chloe] wanted me to join her and (text-colour:#63e6be)[Chad] to hang out. So I went and met (text-colour:purple)[Chloe] in the basement, and we went up to her room, and we found (text-colour:grey)[Steaven] standing over (text-colour:#96f2d7)[the body]. (text-colour:purple)[Chloe] screamed, fainted, got up, screamed and fainted again.

(text-colour:blue)[Billy:] //Yeah, this guy calling themselves YOURGFsFRIEND5992 has been bullying me in the game Digbuild.

(text-colour:blue)[Billy:] //I know it’s against the rules; I’m sorry. (text-colour:purple)[Chloe] just has this thing about being told no. Whenever it happens, she has to rebel against it. It’s why she refuses to sign me in and forces me to sneak in.// He paused for a second (text-colour:blue)[Billy:] //That’s why I meet her in the basement, 'cause I usually have to outrun security and the Dons.// [[Makes sense|Billy]] (set: $bilfr to 1) (set: $Nb5 to 1) (set: $fb to 2)

You hand him the (text-colour:#a61e4d)[apple] that (text-colour:red)[Don Will] gave you. He looks at it for a few moments before biting into it. He doesn’t seem pleased by the taste, texture, or any of the sensations related to eating. But it seems to put him more at ease. [[You sure you don’t remember anything else?|Info]] (Set: $Apple to 1)

You put the (text-colour:orange)[coffee cup] down, on the table next to her. Without even looking, (text-colour:yellow)[Victoria] grabs the mug and downs it all in one go. Before taking a deep breath and rambling off at full speed. (text-colour:yellow)[Victoria:] //It’s like this, we’re losing the Inter-Building Competitive Cup, and I needed to generate more spirit to get us back on top. (text-colour:#63e6be)[Chad] and their terror are a significant component of why there isn’t any spirit, so I wanted to get them on board. When I went to (text-colour:purple)[Chloe’s room], I saw her leave with (text-colour:#63e6be)[Chad] inside, eating a (text-colour:#ffc078)[muffin]. I go to knock, but a security guard rushes past, and I got distracted. By the time I do knock, (text-colour:#63e6be)[Chad] doesn’t answer. Feeling defeated, I left. Oh, and that whole thing (text-colour:cyan)[Fredrick] is saying about the 8th floor being boys only is a load of crap. KING ME.// She screams this last part as she lays her cards across the table.

You take the cup carefully out of your pocket and place it on the table next to her. She finally looks away from her cards and at the cup before shaking her head.

The (text-colour:#fcc2d7)[''kitchen''] is a large area, almost as big as the (text-colour:#d8f5a2)[''common room''].

The room is immaculate, with pristine floors, shiny walls, no clutter, with everything in its place. The only exception is one area outlined in chalk in the shape of a body. That’s probably where (text-colour:#63e6be)[Chad] died. In the corner of the room, there’s a kind of glowing older (text-colour:#d3f9d8)[man] who appears to be floating? You’ve never seen him before.

It’s not hard to tell where (text-colour:#63e6be)[Chad] died. The white chalk outline is a bit of a dead giveaway. You assume that this is the work of (text-colour:red)[Don Will].

You reach forward and tentatively along the throat. Nothing feels out of the ordinary, but you’re not a medical expert.

You wrap your fingers around the chain and slowly pull it out of (text-colour:#63e6be)[Chad]’s shirt, watching the links feed out of the collar until they reveal a curved rectangular of matted metal with the medical alert symbol etched into it.

You pick up the (text-colour:#ffc078)[muffin] and bring it from the ground. It’s half-eaten, one of the crappy ones they sell at the cafeteria.

Your accusation of (text-colour:#d3f9d8)[Delroy] proved to be a fruitless one. The dons took you seriously, and so did the police, but it’s hard to handcuff a ghost.

(text-colour:red)[Don Will]: //Hmm. That's not good. Maybe check your notes? Or reinterview suspects, and witnesses. There might be something new there.// [[Thanks I'll try that|Don Will]]

(text-colour:red)[Don Will]: //A murder. When one person kills another. In this case some has murdered a fellow student.// He pauses. (text-colour:red)[Don Will]: //At least I'm pretty sure it's murder, probably? Someone was murdered and I need you to solve it.// [[Why me?|Why]]

(text-colour:red)[Don Will]: //Of course it is. Ology is the study of something, and Crime is the breaking the law. So, criminology is the study of crime, meanig you're prefectly qualified to study this murder and solve it.// You're now confident he has no idea whay your degree actually is. [[Continue|The Scene]]

He waves off your comments, not seeming to give your words much thought. (text-colour:red)[Don Will:] //The police can't handle this situation.

When you get closer you realize that the rigid fabric is the bill of a baseball (text-colour:#ffd43b)[cap]. [[Take the cap|Cap]] [[Leave it be|No Cap]]

You yank on the (text-colour:#ffd43b)[cap], after a couple of tugs it dislodges from the gap. You brush off the dust, and give it a closer look. Above the bill stitched into the fabric in red string are the words 'Worlds Greatest Don.' You're not sure that applies to any of your dons. [[Investigate Elsewhere|Game Area]] (set: $GAobj to 1)

You're indoors and it's not raining, why would you need a (text-colour:#ffd43b)[cap]? [[Investigate Elsewhere|Game Area]]

You take the baseball (text-colour:#ffd43b)[cap] out of your back pocket. (text-colour:red)[Don Will] gasps, and brings his hands to his face. (text-colour:red)[Don Will]: //A (text-colour:red)[World's Best Don] (text-colour:#ffd43b)[cap]. Only the best of dons are allowed to wear them. Do you really think I'm worthy?// [[Only the World's Best Don would let me into the kitchen|Yesbribe]] [[Nope|Nobribe]]

He hesitates a moment, then accepts the (text-colour:#ffd43b)[cap] and hands you his (text-colour:#3bc9db)[keycard]. (text-colour:red)[Don Will]: //(text-colour:#f76707)[Laura] is going to be so jealous.// He puts the (text-colour:#ffd43b)[cap], and smiles.
