To all my roleplay partners;

You're all very lovely and I'm very sorry that I don't post as often as I should.

your art is always so pleasing to look at and i've been thoroughly enjoying the direction you've been taking pieces lately with that film look. more please, i am hongry and only ghost art can fill my tummy with the proper nutrients. give me the BOYS.
DON'T OVERWORK YOURSELF AGAIN THOUGH. but i'm also excited for more SK shenanigans and cannot WAIT to meet these other characters so they can get properly dunked on.

you're also a nasty little trash man and i will crack your secrets in 2020. watch out.

Your work on events in particular is inspiring and the events absolutely could not be the successes they are without you. I’m so glad you enjoy working on Voltra and think it’s fun but I hope you don’t get overwhelmed or stressed from how much work you take on. You’re a really amazing, passionate, kind, multitalented person and I truly admire you and your work. I hope you have a wonderful 2020!”

“The time has come again to publicly shame you with sweetness. It should be always though, because you're the best. Sure, you're stinky and a nasty boy, but that's part of your charm. I couldn't be more blessed to not only have met you, but be your right hand man, the nasty peanut to your sticky jelly, the uh.. Well, you know I'm dumb, but the beef is that I love you a lot and I'm glad we're a team. I can't imagine how I'd be right now without having met you, seriously. It's really comforting knowing my decade starts with you in my life ;'3c
You inspire me to do better, in art and other things so I pwomise I'll work hard! So you better not fall behind huh, cause if you lose to me, how embarrassing jhdjkfdhf. And I know you work hard and get busy, but I do hope you can make time for games for yourself, but if I can invade then, prepare to regret ever inviting me. Gonna make your life hell.
See your stink around and don't forget our brawl in the dumpster, we gotta fight the bears and then trash it out until we both die.”

“BLESS for uploading more of your OCs to toyhouse, bc now I have refs to go off of ;3c I’m excited to learn more about them, so pls if you share something in the discord don’t let me miss it
your humor is unmatched, I swear every time you say something I spit out my drink. the way you seemingly effortlessly throw witty and clever comments everywhere is part of what makes you such a cool person to talk to. I appreciate how honest you are, and I admire your fearlessness when it comes to making a stand for the things you believe in.

I wish you the best in 2020, in school, in life, in farm game, and everything else you set your mind to. you’re my favorite clown /honk”

“I hope things are going well for you! it's nice when you're able to pop in but make sure you're taking care of yourself first and foremost

“Thanks for opening the Secret Art Exchange!”

“HACHI MACHI. It is required by law to start that way so... but yeah, I know the year was harsh on you but you still organized and ran the secret art exchange sucessfully, which BLESS because it's really fun and I think everyone really loves it. Thank you for bringing something like that to the community! And like, you have amazing, beautiful art too. Also, you're like a cryptic but when you grace us with your precense it's always nice, so I hope to see your face more often this year and I hope things go well for you!”

“thank you for all the hard work you put into keeping the item museum up to date, it looks like it would be tedious work!”

"I started talking to you I believe because of La Llarona, a ghost I had just heard about for the first time days before and i was so excited to talk more about it. (Bit of a supernatural need here) Since then we have had nothing but fantastic conversations and I always enjoy seeing you around the site."

“It has been a really tough year for the both of us, losing someone so close and precious is incredibly painful. I am glad you were with me through it all, its nice to have someone who understands. The first Christmas without them is challenging to say the least, but I know they are watching over us wherever they are.”

“you tell it like it is, and I appreciate how genuine and upfront you are. those qualities make you a super dependable and reliable friend to have!
I’ve said this before, but you’re the voice of reason and you give well-minded and solid advice, but also you can throw one-liners like nobody’s business and I die every time

your drawings always have such a warm, cozy feeling and I love that and I’m always impressed by your pixels.

Posted in The Reaping Ritual: Finale Posted 4 years ago
THE CONFRONTATION...

As the assorted crew arrived at the sight of Trick and Treat's fight, it was clear to all that Trick and his ever growing army was absolutely dominating this competition. However, Treat did not seem like she was even close to giving up, about to launch an attack on the powerful reaper.

"WAIT!" Vontell cupped his hands to his mouth, shouting towards the immortal spirits, "STOP! We have an important update for you!"

Although skeptical, both Trick and Treat eventually agreed to put a pause on this fight, and joined the group for a long explanation...



"Ah..." Treat frowned, "So it was the idiot police officer's offense that began this whole affair."

"Oh, no that's not what I'm say-"

"Volkan," Her icy voice cut through Vontell's words as her dark gaze snapped towards the nervous mayor, her lips curling into a deep frown as she pointed towards Officer Garry, "Fire this man."



Garry's eyes widened, waving his hands to get her attention, "Oh man it doesn't need to be that serious right? I can pay for the damages and do whatever else! I'm really sorry about the statue, I-"

"He's a danger to the public, who would be stupid enough to employ a man who has the very potential to bumble a crime scene? Ridiculous. This shouldn't have to be explained to you. If you really want to take responsibility for this fiasco, you would resign in shame," Flicking her hair, Treat crossed her arms, turning her nose away as she awaited his response.

Smiling weakly, Garry glanced away, shrugging his shoulders in defeat, "I guess that's true... Maybe I should turn in my b-" Before he could finish his thought, Officer JC stepped in front of him, arms crossed as he looked down at Treat.

"If anyone resigns, it'll be me. I was the one who gave him the job to watch over your gifts, so I'll be the one taking responsibility."

"Aw man don't do that..." Garry laughed, patting JC on the shoulder, "You do too much for me as is, don't lose your job over it! I'll be fine!"

"No-Nobody is losing their job today..." Trick stepped forward, gripping his scythe as the group fell to silence, "Since I have been the victor of our f-fight, as well as the o-one that was w-wronged, I think... I think it's only fair I get to make the decision!" He looked over to Garry, giving him a nod, "P-Promise not to do it again."

"Oh man, I'll do my best!" Garry straightened up, chest puffed slightly as he saluted to the Reaper, before his face defaulted to his usual goofy grin, "The last thing I wanna do is bum you out again."

Trick nodded, before glancing to the rest of the group, "This g-goes for the rest of you as well! Be mo-more careful!"

Treat scoffed at this exchange, "Are you daft as well? Why on earth should we give these mortals a pass? Look what they did through their carelessness, they ruined the entire Ritual!"

"Hm..." Trick looked down at her with an unusual amount of authority, "I think, if anyone ruined the Ritual, it w-would be us. Our fight m-made a big mess of everything..." He lifted her chin with the back of his scythe, gazing down at her, "And I think you owe me an apology too..."



"Hmph..." Treat glanced away, crossing her arms as her eyes narrow, "You've gotten bold. I suppose a rare victory will do that. Fine..." She glanced back at him, sighing as he let go of her stubborn pride. Her usually stern voice softened slightly, "I'm sorry for assuming the worse of you. I let my own ego get in the way of our friendship, and I would like to rebuild..."

Trick's twisted smile brightened from her apology, nodding his head gently, "Accepted, and I wo-would like the same... Now. I think we have some wo-work..." He said, gesturing to the mess the city was currently in. Treat grimaced at the sight, lightly nodding.

"I'll get my spellbook...."

"... And that is how I believe it all went down," Vontell concluded as he nodded to the crowd, who all seemed to scratch their heads in astonishment.

"Was it really that simple?" Mayor Volkan was the first to speak, before giving a soft chuckle, "Of all things..."

"Tch..." Virgil scowled, rolling his eyes, "Yeah, really funny when it doesn't effect you."

Rubbing the back of his neck, Officer Garry laughed weakly, "It was my fault the whole time, huh? Oops... Well, in that case, I'll go to them right now and apologize! They're both pretty cool, I think they'll understand right?"

Everyone exchanged a doubtful glance from this suggestion. Vivienne raised her hand to gain the attention of the room, "Excuse me! But this is kind of my fault too... I want to go with you and apologize!"

"Me too..." Vanora nodded, sighing, "If it weren't for my paint, the water wouldn't have been there to begin with..."

Vyctor laughed weakly, "And if I'd left well enough alone, I guess. We'll all go together. Also, sorry Virgil," He glanced back, "I guess I kinda let you down..."

"Whatever..." Virgil mumbled, shrugging, "Just hurry up and end this stupid event already."

Announcement: I will allow all participants to ask a second question once the 12 player requirement is reached
Posted in Chapter Fourteen: The Gathering Posted 4 years ago

• Found at the scene: Paint Supplies, a Bucket with a Bandage, and a Hairdryer with a Tangled Chord
• The letters "V F" were carved into the base of the statue
• Vanora was backstage (two witnesses confirm)
• Vivienne was backstage, and was with Treat
• Volkan was never out of anyone's sight
• The hairdryer belonged to Vivienne, and was not working correctly. Its chord was not tangled when she left it
• Vyctor delivered the statue and was backstage alone
• Virgil was the artist that created the statue
• Virgil claims the statue was a lifelike replica of Treat when he created it, he doesn't know what happened
• Virgil specifically told Vyctor not to remove the sheet, so Vyctor never saw it. Virgil claims this was to keep it protected.
• The statue was fragile
• Vanora left a mess backstage with paint, Vyctor cleaned it
• The Voltra Police Department was working security and kicked Vyctor out
• Vanora claims to have been with Velvet, who had an emergency
• Valentina should have been at the event, but was not and has not been answering her phone
• Violet helped Virgil with the statue, and had photographs to prove their innocence
• Violet used magic on the statue to help keep it from breaking
• Vichard went to Joyful Jamboree to buy candy said he had a big plan for it. It was to prank his brother.
• Vregory has a big sweet tooth, and was kept away from the statue while it was in the shop
• Vregory and Vichard were too busy distracting each other to interfere with the statue
• Vichard had no knowledge of the exchange or the statue
• Officer Milly and Officer JC guarded the doors entering the backstage, while Officer Garry was patrolling inside
• Officer Garry says it's impossible that anyone got to it with him around
• Officer Garry had a wound on his knee he has no memory of
• Officer Garry has a disorder that causes him not to feel pain, and is a klutz
• The Guardians claim there was no interference from The Agents of Entropy, Veles, or any form of dark magic
• Valentina was working at her workshop to help the Guardians
• Val and Vaughn never arrived at the event because she was caught up in her work
• Val and Vaughn both agree that the statue has been melted, but cannot agree on a source (Val suggests it dissolved, Vaughn suggests it was by a heart source)

In hopes of discovering what caused this tiff between Trick and Treat, I've taken it upon myself to investigate this mystery. I began by searching the backstage, where the statue had been stored prior to the exchange. My search yielded:

- Paint supplies
- A bucket with a bandage
- A hairdryer with a tangled chord
- The letters "V F" carved into the statue's base

Perhaps these are important clues... Or perhaps it is just rubbish left behind. We'll have to search further.

Questioning the mayor, who was closest to the scene, I discovered the following information:

- Mayor Volkan was busy all day and was never alone at any point
- The statue was being watched all the time it was backstage
- Vanora, Vivienne, and security were backstage, at least that Volkan knew of

Perhaps Vanora or Vivienne may be able to shed more light upon this situation...

My poor friend Vivienne appeared to be under a lot of distress when I visited her. It seems she was having some technical difficulties with her equipment. After I calmed her, we discussed her experience backstage:

- Her hairdryer stopped functioning properly when she was styling Treat's hair
- She was with Treat the entire time, the entered and left the backstage together
- She confirmed Vanora was there
- She mentioned that Vyctor was also there, and potentially delivered the statue

Vyctor was an ordeal to speak to, due to the large influx of customers he had been faced with. However, once they had cleared out our conversation yielded a surprising amount of leads and information:

- Virgil was the artist behind the statue, and has asked Vyctor to transport it for him
- Virgil was very clear that Vyctor was not to remove the sheet at any time, so Vyctor never saw it before the reveal on stage
- Vyctor had time alone backstage, as there was nobody around when he delivered the statue
- There was a mess of paint left by an unknown person, which Vyctor took the time to clean up
- Vyctor was eventually escorted out by the Voltra Police Department, who were acting as security for the event

After having to go on a bit of a chase to capture Timberland, I managed to have a little talk with Vanora. She was able to verify some information, as well as offer a few interesting leads:

- She left the mess backstage when she was painting props and displays
- She was called away in the middle of it by Velvet, who claimed to have an emergency
- Claims she never saw Vyctor or the statue, but she did recall passing Vivienne
- Valentina should have been at the event, but Vanora never saw her and cannot contact her

Virgil was in a worse mood than usual when I paid him a visit, seemingly because of the sorry state Joyful Jamboree was in. After helping him clean up, he was open to a conversation:

- He admits to creating the statue, stating that it was a commission from Trick
- He denies tampering with it, even going so far as to state he wishes he did because of the reaction it caused
- Virgil stated that the statue was fragile and needed careful handling
- He state that Violet was with him during the creation, and that she may have useful evidence

To follow up Virgil's claims, I ventured to speak with his sister Violet. Unfortunately when I arrived, she seemed to be tied up with her work. After helping her organize, she revealed to me:

- She did help Vigil craft the statue, and had photo evidence to prove they were innocent
- The statue was made of candy
- She had cast a spell on the statue to strengthen it and keep it from breaking
- Vichard had been to the store, and mentioned having a "big plan" in store. it required a lot of candy
- Vregory was seen as an obstacle, as he can't help himself around candy

Finding Vregory King, greatly upset by the chaos that is currently ruling Voltra, I helped him calm down somewhat, after which he told me:

- He found goodies on the ground and made to collect them
- He didn't go backstage at all
- He arrived to watch the Ritual in the audience and didn't seem to realise that anything was off with the statue
- He thought the statue smells good, which ties into it being made of candy like Violet said

Vichard King seemed to be in a foul mood and not willing to communicate at first. After playing his little game, he spoke to me:

- He bought the candy to lead his brother Vregory into a trap, which failed
- He's been so focused on trying to prank his brother, he missed the entire exchange and had no knowledge of the statue or the fighting
- He suggested we speak to the guardians

The police station was in chaos when I arrived, but after helping Officer Garry deliver coffee I was able to ask him some questions:

- He confirmed that he, Officer JC, and Officer Milly were acting as security at the event
- He claims JC was at the front door, Milly at the back, and he was inside the backstage on patrol
- He claims nobody would have been able to bypass him without notice
- He had a mystery wound on his knee, but he seemed unbothered by it
- He revealed that he falls often and struggles to keep track of them for it
- He also has a disorder that causes him not to feel pain, so he never noticed it

I found Velvet in quite a fit, but after she calmed down by speaking to me, I discovered the following:

- Velvet's upset Trick and Treat's feud pulled the spotlight away from her and her costume
- She pulled Vanora away to help her with her costume in the bathroom
- She and Vanora weren't present for the exchange

It seems Frizz, Static, and Spark have been doing their best to try to reason with Trick and Treat, but to no avail. Speaking with Spark yielded an important piece of information:

- It was NOT The Agents of Entropy
- It was NOT Veles
- Dark magic has NOT been used
- Valentina is apparently helping the Guardians, and should be at her workshop

I finally managed to track down Valnetina. Luckily she was safe and well, as was Vaughn.

- They revealed they never arrived at the event, as Val caused them to be late when she got absorbed by her work
- They claim they had no knowledge of the statue's current state
- Vaughn theorizes it was melted by heat
- Valentina theorizes it was melted by a liquid/solvent, but says it's possible a large amount of heat could cause that damage

QUESTION: how do you see when your eyes are always closed, huh? How do we know you didn't bump into the statue and knock it over, HUH? (abridged version)

Volkan seems increasingly confused and concerned as you begin to interrogate him, glancing back at the VPD to see if he could get some assistance, earning a shrug from Officer Milly in response. Glancing back to you, he laughs awkwardly, rubbing the back of his neck.

"First of all... I ... ASSURE you I did not knock over that statue. I was never anywhere near it until it was on stage, and by that point there was a large crowd, I would have had no opportunity to. But to answer your other question, I see just fine thank you very much." He pauses, rubbing his chin, "Do my eyes always look like they're closed? This is news to me..."

Pulled from his thoughts, he furrows his eyebrows, "Now what was this about arch nemesis and a crumbling empire? Should I be concerned?"


QUESTION: "So... Can you explain your injury?" (abridged version)

Garry laughs with a sheepish grin, scratching his cheek, "Well you're not wrong! I do have two left feet... So it's totally possible I tripped when on patrol, no denying that! To be honest... I can't really remember! I trip so often I lose track."

He laughs again, shrugging, "But I can tell you for sure that I didn't spill any coffee or anything, we weren't allowed to have food or drinks. Milly was pretty annoyed over it, actually."

He offers you an apologetic smile, "Sorry I'm not more helpful, I've been racking my brain on this too... Oh, but I can tell you I didn't have the wound before we went on security duty though! I stopped to pet a dog on the way there and I would have noticed it when I knelt down." Garry laughs, giving a thumbs up, "You always need to pay the dog tax, man!"

QUESTION: Officer Garry. Might I ask you, if you at any time while on duty backstage, saw Vanora and what she was doing?

"Hm... I can't say I did!" Garry shakes his head, "By the time we got there, the was only one person backstage, which was Vyctor over there," He gestures to the man in question, who nods back, "We escorted him out since we had orders from the mayor to clear out the premises as a security measure... Heh, guess that didn't work in the end huh?" He laughs, scratching his cheek, "She must have left before we showed up!"

QUESTION: Why do you have so many broken hairdryers? Maybe you burned them out trying to melt the statue... 👀

Vivienne's eyes widen in shock from the accusation, "O-OH! No never! I would have nowhere to store that many or the time to pull that off, even if I wanted to! No, those were already at my shop I....."

Vivienne pauses, grinning as she seems nervous. Her eyes dart over to Vanora, who's frowning disapprovingly, as if she already knows where this is going. Composing herself, Vivienne sighs, "I may have a teensy weensy problem with holding onto things after they don't work... I've been stockpiling broken hairdryers over the years hoping you know, maybe some day I can get them fixed! But then uh... I just... get impatient and buy a new one..." She giggled slightly behind her hand, "Vanora keeps trying to throw them away on me so I need to hide them! It's not hoarding!"

QUESTION: this is a question for that little furball behind your legs, there. timberland was so quick to snatch that candy from vanora....is it possible timberland could have seen the statue and went full munchies mode and attacked it? maybe got caught up in your hairdryers in the process? [abridged]

Vivienne smiles weakly, laughing, "Well... If she was around it, she probably would... She really can't help herself around food. Luckily, we left her at home during the Ritual! There's no way she could have gotten to it."

Timberland stares blankly at you as she's addressed, "Meow."

QUESTION: are you sure you didn't bring it back to your shop to throw in your hoard of broken hairdryers hM? did you actually leave the working hairdryer at the scene? (abridged)

Vivienne twirls her hair around her finger nervously, "Honestly I wanted to..." She laughs sheepishly, before sighing, "But in the heat of the moment I was kind of flustered and ended up abandoning it. Treat's a very important client and not one you want to keep waiting! I felt really foolish in front of her, that's why we hurried out of there..."

She blinks at the question, tilting her head, "Well, it'd blow some air but not consistently. It'd like... fluctuate? And sometimes it'd blow nice and hot, or suddenly become really cold, or blow really strong or really weak! I just gave up!"

QUESTION: Well all saw you a while ago, your hand caressing Trick's manly chest, Trick's loving "gaze" as he accepted your feelings. You can't fool us with that "trying to supress" nonsense. So come on, let it out. What is going on with you and Trick huh? You guys secretly dating? Is that what you all do on the downtime when Voltra is at peace? You fly off to meet your mysterious hooded lover?

Spark beams from this accusation, "Hey Hey! Check it out, I've officially made it guys, there's already hot gossip flooding the town about my love life!" Lowering his glasses, he gives you a wink, "Lucky for the rest of you and Voltra, I can absolutely confirm that I'm still on the market. There's nothing sordid going on between Trick and I... Well, not yet anyway!"

He taps his chin as if debating his in his head, taking a moment before smiling to you, "I'm not closed off to the idea, if he's interested he can hit me up! I... I'm not really sure how dating a skeleton man would work but hey, first time for everything am I right?"

He laughs when he sees your reaction, grinning, "Before you start spreading that rumour next, I'm kidding you. My heart belongs to Voltra!"

QUESTION: why did you and violet make the statue out of candy? and how? since it was made of candy, it could melt with heat, right? also ur the best

Virgil grimaces slightly at the last part, seeming to be uncomfortable with accepting compliments before moving on like it didn't happen, "I made it out of candy because that's what Trick requested. I told him it was a stupid idea and a stupid medium to work with, but he insisted. Tch..."

He rolls his eyes, "So yeah, it was a challenge to keep it from melting on me when working on it, it took an embarrassing amount of failed attempts and research to find the perfect grade of hard sugar candy that could keep its form and stay relatively strong. It should have been fine. It even managed to hold up under the lights in my studio, which get pretty hot. Imagine how pissed I was when the moment it's out of my sight, it ends up like that," He gestures to the statue, scowling at it, "Just my luck, huh?"

QUESTION: is the VF your artist signature? Or is it a signature of the saboteur?

Virgil nodded, "It was me, yeah. I wasn't going to bother carving my full name into it."

QUESTION: Do you know anyone who might have a grudge against your brother and try to sabotage his work on purpose?

Violet cups her cheek, "Aww my sweet baby brother? Who would ever want to put a frown on his face?" She grinned to Virgil playfully, getting a scowl in return.

Laughing softly, she sighed, shaking her head as she tapped her finger to her lip thoughtfully, "Hmm... Off the top of my head, I couldn't tell you anyone that would want to hurt him like that... Ah..." She hesitated a moment, seeming troubled before quickly replacing it with a smile, "Nobody in Voltra anyway! And nobody that would try to get back at him by making his statue look goofy, I can assure you," she paused for a moment, before grinning, "You're going to have to canvas somebody else to get better answers! There's a real art to interrogations after all... Don't draw any conclusions though![/b]

QUESTION: you said you had cast a spell on the statue to help prevent it from melting, since it was made of candy. would there be a way for someone else to cast a spell to undo yours? would that be a possibility?

"Hmm..." Violet smiles, tilting her head, "It's very possible, yes... I admit, the spell I cast wasn't very strong to begin with! Virgil caught me in the middle of it and gave me an earful! He gets really upset when I use magic in general, but he was extra upset when I used it on his work..." She smiled faintly, seeming almost remorseful before shaking her head, "But to be clear, my spell didn't make the statue impervious! I actually didn't protect it all that well... It just helped strengthen the candy a little."

QUESTION: You mentioned the statue could've been melted by a solvent or a high amount of heat. How much heat would it take to melt it though? Virgil knew it being made from candy would be tricky..It shouldn't have been exposed to that much heat..

Valentina seems to be not paying attention, writing something in her notebook. As you ask her a question she looks up, "Ah well, the melting point of sugar is typically within the 184 and 186°C range. I also overheard that Violet had tampered with it, so it could easily be at a much higher point, it'd difficult to know without a little testing. I really don't know much about magic."

Valentina hums thoughtfully, "Since Vivienne continues to use store bought hairdryers, I doubt they're powerful enough to reach it... But if you're looking for an upgrade, I can help with that!" She taps the pen against her chin, "Actually, it'd be a pretty simple modification, let me see here..." She trails off, seeming lost in her own head as she begins to make calculations in her notes.

QUESTION: Despite your excuse of Halloween Costume Malfunctions, I don't believe you! What were you and Violet really doing while things were going awry?

"Uhm... Okay," Velvet rolled her eyes, huffing slightly, "First thing's first: how dare you. Second, how exactly am I supposed to know what Violet was up to? I never even spoke to her today. Hmph, ask her yourself if you're so curious. As for me... Why exactly would I tamper with the statue? I have nothing to gain from that. Your suspicions are misplaced, darling."

QUESTION: You're usually pretty quiet but I bet you're a good listener. What are your thoughts on this?

"Hm." Static sounded thoughtfully, a moment of silence following before he continued, "Everyone seems as equally confused as the other, so it's hard to detect any guilt in this room. I think the most valuable thing everyone could do as a group is reexamine the evidence. Things you may have found at the beginning could have new meaning with the context you have now."

QUESTION: How does it feel to be nearby your brother? Like, you're both here it must be nice right, you can hang out.

Vichard's eyebrows furrow from the question, "Nice? What's nice about being around that imbecile? GEH just being around him makes my blood boil!" He clenches his fists, stomping his foot in annoyance, "I'm not here to "HANG OUT", I'm here to get my vengeance! I want to cower at my superior power and intelligence, and concede that I, Vichard King, am the FAR better heir! If he'd just stop digging in the garbage for five minutes maybe he would notice!"

Looking over to his brother, on cue, Vregory could be seen in the background digging through the backstage garbage can. Vichard's cheeks puff up, "SEE? RIDICULOUS!"

QUESTION: Did you see anyone on your way delivering the statue, and are you sure no one was there when you delivered it? (I.e. Did you see anyone at all in that time period, and if so please describe!)

Vyctor rubs his chin in thought from the question, "Hm... On the way there? I passed a couple people I guess, usual foot traffic. But nothing really stood out... I was pretty careful to avoid people and make sure nobody or nothing got too close to it. Didn't want to let Virgil down, you know? Heh."

He thinks, nodding, "Yeah otherwise, I passed Vivienne in the hallway, but she was heading out. When I was in there it was just me, and the statue was pretty much in my sights the whole time I was cleaning up. Only other people there were the VPD."

QUESTION: Did your father blast the statue with lasers when he was angry, and you’re trying to cover up for him? (abridged)

Vanora's face twists into one of confusion as your questioning pursues. "Ah, that was just our fault for being careless, it's just a coincidence that everything got left around, I guess. Pretty careless of us, huh?" Biting her lip, she continued. "Though, I only remember bringing the paint supplies and Vivi with her hairdryer. I'm not sure where the bandages came from."

Her face fell as you accused her father of corruption and bribing others. "No, my dad absolutely wouldn't do a thing like that. He's always thinking of what's best for anyone. The VPD are always following the law, too. They'd never cover up the truth just to save themselves. They're not those kind of people, otherwise they'd never have gotten the jobs they have now."

"I'm...SORRY? My father's WHAT now? He doesn't have any...lasers. I'm pretty sure." Vanora took a couple of hesitant steps backwards. "I..?" Turning to Vivienne, she asked, "What are they even asking me right now..?"

QUESTION: are you aware that the delicious candy you found on the ground was provided by your very thoughtful brother? how kind of him.

Vregory blinked from his position, crouching by a trash can, before his smile widened. "It is?" Looking towards Vichard, his face lit up more. "He's good brother. Gets me lots of good things." Digging into his hoodie pocket, he drew out some of the leftover candy he had, and held it out to you. "Is very tasty. Want to try?"
