fifth investigation

[stagemanagers]

[Friday dawns, seemingly normal despite all of your recent discoveries. There is no blood in the hall. There are no bodies immediately visible when you first exit your rooms.

But when you think about going to get some breakfast...you get a bad feeling in the pit of your stomach.]

[There's a phoenix down, right?? He inventoried that??]

[stagemanagers]

[No phoenix down, but a large bottle is sitting conspicuously in the middle of one of the cots.]

[garbageface]

Please tell me that’s water.

[ Santana heads over to the cot to take a closer look. She has the suspicion that it is. Not water. ]

[37773972]

...I don't think it's water.

[He's following, looking baffled]

[stagemanagers]

[It is, in fact, medicinal ether! The warning labels sound pretty dire - it causes unconsciousness, but can lead to asphyxiation if used incorrectly.]

[garbageface]

[ takes a shaky breath. ] Yeah, uh. Not water.

[ how much of the ether seems to be missing/used? ]

[stagemanagers]

[Well, it certainly feels lighter than it ought to be!]

[37773972]

Careful with that-!

[He's going to look around while Santana's examining the bottle, though]

Who the hell...?

[garbageface]

Please, I’m not gonna poison myself. Or anyone else.

[ she is gonna...take that bottle...and make sure the top is sealed up real good ]

Ugh, this is so messed up.

[37773972]

You're telling me. He was just...

[Just a kid.]

[garbageface]

So small.

[ Santana, please, that’s not what Stephen meant. But at least she looks appropriately horrified? ]
