INVESTIGATION 4

And the clock ticks down to the end of another week. While the days were no less eventful, the tone set by last Thursday wasn't matched in the same way this time, so perhaps that's a source of relief for some. Looking at it another way though, maybe it was nothing more than the calm before the storm; after all, every Friday has been nothing but bodies upon bodies in some way or another.

So maybe that's why it may be unsurprising to smell something acrid and burnt on the autumn breeze that sweeps through the streets. The bell tolls eight. Time to get investigating.

[umbralant]

[It's hard to say if there was prior blood loss because even if he took all of the blood in the front of the tram and combined it together, it probably wouldn't sum up to the total volume that's in someone's body (as with many other crime scenes). The most that can be noted is how there is blood spread fairly evenly throughout the front of the tram!]

[deadlygoals]

[ Okay, time to be a monkey again. He's going to hop up to grab the seats above himself to pull himself up, using the side of the drive's seat as a step. ]

You might want to get to the back for this.

[ He's going to wait until after Dist moves, before kicking the wind shield hard ]

[ortion]

[Considering Dist is like, right in front of the windshield, yyyeah he's definitely going to move back. He'll get as far back behind Dazai as he can considering he'd have to crawl over some seats otherwise...]

[umbralant]

[While Dist is doing that, he might notice that there's actually some blood spatter on some of the seats. They're just kind of spread out and similar in pattern to the spatters near the front of the tram (some showing a linear pattern while some is just like... mess). So that's a thing.]

[ortion]

[...wow, there's just blood fucking everywhere, isn't there?

Is there any blood going down the aisle as well, or is it just on some seats near the front?]

[umbralant]

[There sure is blood everywhere, hospitals would be annoyed at how much is being wasted here!!

There is blood as he goes down the aisles, yes! It's not as concentrated as near the front, but there are some intermittent and random spatter around the seats and also on the side windows as well.]

[ortion]

[When you're splashing blood everywhere, think of the hospitals.

All of that is for sure noted though. Is there anything else of note in the back area of the tram? Like...he'll wiggle back there if he's gotta... It's for the investigation.]

[umbralant]

[There is some more occasional blood spatter at the back but it's really not much. There's nothing much else so thank goodness Dist won't need to wiggle more!]

[umbralant]

[The windshield...! Stays intact. It's not that easy to break these things, so he might need to do a couple more before it breaks.]

[deadlygoals]

[ Time to kick it a couple more times then. ]

[umbralant]

[And after a few more, it breaks, with the glass shattering outwards!

Congratulations, you can now yeet Ignis' body out the front of a tram.]

[deadlygoals]

[ TIME TO YEET IT!

Or actually, time to get the muscles over here to help. ]

Are you still over here, Shiro?

[ Halp this noodle ]

[galrarm]

[ boy is he! ]

Yeah. Give me a moment.

[ and here he is. He can't quite look at Ignis's body, because. welp. ]

Ready?

[deadlygoals]

As ready as I can be~ There's a lot of glass.

[ Just going to drop back down behind Ignis to try to life him up enough for Shiro to get a hold of him. ]

[galrarm]

Right.

[ He manages to get a hold on him, and nods to Dazai... before lifting him up. It's a little awkward with just one arm, but at least there are three here! ]

[deadlygoals]

[ Together they make a three armed person. And he BELIEVES in you Shiro. Shifting an arm under Ignis' legs as they work together to get him out of there. Once he's high enough, Dazai can start to push him outwards ]

Got it?

[galrarm]

Got it. Thanks.

[ He pulls him out, and it's a little slow going... but they manage it!! good job boys. ]

[deadlygoals]

[ Victory music, but it's a sad kazoo instead.

Okay, so he's going to climb out afterwards. ]

You might not want to be around for the rest of this.

[ Since he's free of the entrapment (or entramment), he can not check out the body better ]

[galrarm]

... You sure? If you need any more help, I can handle it.

[deadlygoals]

I'll leave that up to you.

[ Okay, let's check out Ignis' body. He's going to study both of Ignis' hands. He's comparing the wounds to the ones on his chest. Do they look consistent from the crash or does it look like something else has caused them? ]

[umbralant]

[Well, the wounds on his chest are all cuts, bruises and lacerations that are spread out all around rather than the scrapes that present on his knuckle. Needless to say, they look pretty different. Another thing that would be super obvious to note is that his arms have a lot of cuts on them, so say goodbye to those nice sleeves he has on the shirt.]

[deadlygoals]

[ Does it look like his knuckles scraped against something or does it look like they are from getting into a fight? ]

[umbralant]

[Well, there's no skin looking like it got really shredded or peeled off in strips or anything? As it is, the scrapes are only localized on the knuckle bones and nowhere else.]

[deadlygoals]

[ Okay, cool. Time to do the stripping. Or just cutting off the remains of his shirt using the scissors in his swiss army pocket knife. Small scissors so it might take a bit.

OKAY SHIRT OFF. Let's look at all the wounds to try to see if there's anything suspicious/looks like it could be from something other than the crash. ]

[umbralant]

[For one thing, there's a lot of them. There is some purple discolouration all over his chest in general and if we're talking about cuts and lacerations here, there's a mix between wounds that look like they were fairly messy and some that were fairly clean, straight line cuts. There's quite a bit of blood all over the chest too, but there's a number of them that don't seem to have bled that much. The hole through his chest is a messy one, which probably isn't surprising considering what was jammed through it, but there you go.

Ignis' face didn't come out unscathed either, with some bruising on his cheek and some other small cuts and the like on his forehead.

And as mentioned before, there's a bunch of straight cuts on his arms too.]
