first investigation

[stagemanagers]

Your second Friday in the gilded cage that is the Opera House feels very much like the one before. The only real exception is that today is the deadline for the Phantom’s offer, to erase a single person from existence in exchange for one of their lives. The morning is quiet as you all filter out of your rooms with no immediate signs that anyone’s taken your house manager up on his offer.

That is, except for the very small, dark stains on the carpet of the dressing room hallway but that’s probably unrelated.

[Good news: there's no huam corpse in here!

Bad news: Something sure happened!

But that's a tale for another time...a few minutes from now in fact.

[At least there's not a body. Claudine is not entirely sure how she'd handle that.]

We should go back to the dressing rooms, just in case. We can come back here later.

[As much as she hates it.]

Yes, you're right. I'm worried about the others. Let's hurry.

[She's glad nothing's wrong here but-- there's still Definitely something wrong.]
