INVESTIGATION

Good morning!

...Except it really isn't a good morning for the students at Ira Academy, after all. The deadline prescribed in this week's motive came just as quickly as the one's before it. It might be difficult to repel the sinking sense of dread that bleeds into Friday's early hours. That secret written on a slip of paper might even feel heavier for some. Perhaps it's Father's hate-filled words instead: I’m getting a little antsy about your performance. Do something to spice things up, won’t you? By now, is a grisly discovery every Friday morning a guarantee?

Though you're surely awake at the same time as usual--if you slept at all--there's a certain gloomier, late-year feeling to the artificial light keeping the Academy illuminated and providing the illusion of a complete world outside. There are no real seasons to speak of in this part of Closetland; one step into the playground proves that easily enough. And yet, as you emerge from your rooms, free to go wherever you wish today, it's hard to deny it. You've been enrolled here for quite a while, and time has passed.

Will autumn come and go before you get out of here?

How do we trap a sheepy....

[good question...]

Oh! I've go a bear trap!

Those are violent, but...

[an uneasy smile]

we may not have a choice.

[h o o b o y]

[A creepy smile.]

Agreed, Anya. The sheep will go squish, and soon, the prissipull will, too...

Oh! Maybe my monster bait can help then!

[He almost forgot he was making that!]

Yeah! I was planning on using it against the prissipull, but the sheep can be chompy chomped by it. Gimmie some jelly!

[Adorabat flaps her wing toward Fret. Jelly!]
