"I've always had the servants deal with it...." Kit said, thinking, "... Perhaps that's why they won't come back."

PD raised an eyebrow at Kit's comment. "Yeah, maybe. But where are your servants that were here the other day?"

She then turned to Deria "Yyeeaaahhhh," PD said slowly, "we could always.... umm, go in with a blanket and drape it over her body quickly without having to look at it... too much?" The thought of being a room with a dead person creeped her out. There was a reason Funeral Home Owner/"Morgue worker-person was never on her list of "Things I Want To Be When I Grow Up".

Violet shuffled her feet nervously. Going and seeing a dead body wasn't high on her list of things she enjoyed, to put it mildly. And if a revenge-crazy murderer was among the guests here...she shuddered at the possibility.

"Were there any other clues?" She didn't mean for her voice to come out as a frightened squeak.

"We're just going to have to go up there and see for ourselves," Maeve said matter-of-factly. The thought of a dead body in the house didn't frighten her as much as the idea of a killer. "Whose with me?"

Lydia perked up at the mention of investigating. She knew that she should be infinitely more disturbed, but death didn't really scare her...not anymore at least. There was something afterward, she knew for sure now. Before she had been interested, but maintained a healthy level of respect for dying. That had been replaced with just curiosity. Respect was hard to give to a system that was filled with bureaucratic red tape.

So, being effectively cured of her aversion to all things dead, namely by the Maitlands and Betelgeuse, Lydia decided to be useful. She dug through the many pockets that lined her black jacket, finally pulling out a red digital camera. Although she loved her Nikon it wasn't at all practical to bring about for everyday shots, so Lydia invested in a high rated digital camera and never looked back.

"I have a camera to document anything," she said to Kitoky, holding it up as proof and shaking it a little. That is what they did at crime scenes after all right? Take pictures so that they didn't forget or miss anything?

Betelgeuse smirked as he watched Lydia brighten at the prospect of a mystery. Of course the kid would love stuff like this, he thought. He did too, of course. The land of the living could be boring at times (well, everywhere but New York), so a good murder every now and again was something to look forward to. Although...he wasn't so keen about having a murderer around Lyds. She was his one (and only) ticket out of the Neitherworld.

"Yeah," he said, pushing off the wall, almost forgetting that he shouldn't float - his feet were a few centimeters off the floor, but he recovered gravity fast enough. "I'll give ya a hand, Lyds." He offered with a smile. Normally he would have accompanied it by actually tossing her a hand, but...the rest of the breathers might spaz, so he didn't.

PD hesitated for a minute before saying with a sigh, "I'm there." Deep down she knew she would regret it if she stayed downstairs and missed out on the mystery.... even if it may give her nightmares and make her stomach more than queezy.

Deria worked up her resolve. "Maeve's right, we need to have a look. And, well...if there are any clues on her body..." she shuddered and went on, "someone's going to have to have a look..." Her hand shook and the pen with it. She grimaced. "Let's just go before we all frighten ourselves out of it with awful thoughts."

TT had over slept. Greatly. Comming down the staircase, she began to hear a commotion going on on the lower level. Words like "murder" "body" "clue" and Nurr were being thrown around.
TT came up to the crowd. "Is something wrong? What did I miss?... I... I dunno how I managed to sleep so late."

"Yes, do lead the way, Kit," Maeve urged, more for the fact that she did not want to have to enter the room first and take in the grisly sight. Maeve turned toward TT and motioned for her to follow. "Poor Nurrantiel has been murdered and we're going up to her room to see if we can discover any evidence that points to what happened."

"Come on!" PD grabbed TT, "I'll explain it on the way." She was happy to have a comrade and friend she recognized right now... at least there would be someone there when they went to see the body.

"IF you all insist," Kit sighed and grabbed the nearest person to her to push in front of her as she led from behind. "The left.... up, the stairs.... yes, there we go.... Right, if you please.... and then left, your other left. That's the bathroom. No, she's in the second room... keep going. Now, there. Here."

Kit released her hostage and gestured for everyone to go ahead on in.

Before she knew what was happening, TT was grabbed by PD, and Kit had taken someone else hostage.

"Whoa, what. Slow down." TT was confused. "What's going on?"

Maeve bumped into someone as they were ushered hastily into the darkened room. She apologised to no one in particular since she couldn't see very well and tried to take in her surroundings as her eyes adjusted.

Deria followed the group up the stairs and entered the room first, notebook in hand. It looked ordinary enough as her gaze traveled everywhere but the bed Nurr had been found in. She studiously examined everything, writing a description of it in her book, except for that area. She didn't want to be the one to have the first look.

(I'm off to practice piano and then to bed. I'll be back tomorrow. Don't find them out without me and try not to die!)

(^sleep well!)

PD hurried up the stairs with TT, making sure, however, to keep a safe distance behind Kit and her hostage. Who knew, maybe the killer would jump out of any of these doors and strike again. She was happy, as morbid as it might sound, that TT was beside her. Maybe she could use her as a shield... or maybe that was cruel to do to a friend... "Umm," she turned to TT, "Maeve sorta already explained it... mostly. Nurr was killed and we're going to inspect the room... and the, erm, body..." She stopped behind Kit and waited for their hostess to go in first.

"Nurr was killed?!" TT looked suprised. Nay, stunned. "How... Who... When?" TT stopped alongside PD by the door. "You're going to look at the body? Why?"
