[Entrance Exam] Investigation

[lockdownmods]

Waking up, you might not notice it immediately, but it shouldn't take you long to realize that today is different. All the haunting memories you've been forced to relive the past few days are gone.

Perhaps... the exam is over. Maybe you've done well and passed with flying colors.

But there's another possibility you have to consider as well. And it's strange that they're gone just like that. Don't you think you should get up and take a look around the main school building... just in case?

LET'S GO...

To a degree. I'm quite well versed in both human and avian anatomy.

[ Quite well versed. ]

...Unfortunately, my weakness means I'll need help turning the body over when it comes to that.

[escardos]

Excuse me, Mister Holmes!

[ flat has a bit of trouble shifting the body, and holmes does end up face down on the floor but, hey. it's a corpse.

he also takes the bottle of nyquil he found and sets it aside! ]

Do you think Mister Holmes was really sick with a cold?

[9laborsoflove]

That depends. What were the symptoms? He could have easily been poisoned, after all.

[ Time to look at his entire back side! See if there's anything there. ]

[escardos]

Well, I don't know, I'm not a doctor.

[ badum-tshh. he's also having a good look at that body, wishing silently that he could have his clairvoyance back. thanks but no thanks, admins. ]

But in the novels, I think Mister Holmes had some sort of drug addiction. Opiates, I think? I don't know if he would still have that as a Heroic Spirit, though...

[9laborsoflove]

I wouldn't know, but unless he could get his hands on any, his addiction wouldn't be fed.

[ So yeah anything on the back here, mods? If not, it's time to strip the body because he's doing this right. ]

[escardos]

Could he get sick if he doesn't get his addiction fed?

[9laborsoflove]

Symptoms of... I believe cocaine was his drug of choice? The withdrawal from that would... Hm.... Fatigue, exhaustion, chills, tremors, aches, pains... All are symptoms. They aren't the worst, though. Anxiety and depression, suicidal thoughts... He must not have been having a good time. All right, roll him back over.

[ Time!!! To strip the body! ]

[escardos]

[ flat's going to roll the body back over while mulling over those symptoms. some of them sound awful, such as anxiety and depression, but others... ]

You know, all of those symptoms you said at first remind me of when you have a cold. And this [ he lifts the nyquil up ] is cold medicine! And it makes you super sleepy, too. That can't be a coincidence, right?
