second investigation [night 7/day 8]

[calloperators]

[So I have good news today! No explosion that will wake you all up at 3 AM! You can sleep in to the morning if you want to.

But if you’re a really early riser, or you stay up really late every evening, it might be worth it to look around.

Especially after that strange phone call you got again. After all, you’ve all committed crime, there could be someone who would trade in a human life for a fabulous prize.

Or sleep in honestly that’s what I would do.

Investigate?]

[...reluctantly, Satan takes a picture of Medic's bare torso.]

[He's... he's done spending time with the body, Grog can have fun with it. He's going after the arcade cabinet now. Anything weird there?]

[hotlinenpcs]

[A couple of things!

The arcade cabinet looks old and beat up, and seems to be stuck on a screen that says "FINISH HIM!"]

[worldchampofmartialarts]

[Huh.]

[...how exactly is the screen stuck- is it just frozen into a still image- or is it just softlocked with the sprites looping the same animation endlessly? And is there any visible glitching aside from that?]

[hotlinenpcs]

[Like a soft lock! Nothing else is noticeable about the glitching.]

[worldchampofmartialarts]

[...hm...]

[What about the cabinet itself... if it's in really poor shape, is that... just due to its old age, or is there any sign that it's taken more damage during this incident?]

[hotlinenpcs]

[The cabinet itself just seems worn from age, nothing really notable about that.

The cord however...]

[worldchampofmartialarts]

[...oh boy.]

[What state of discord is this cord in.]

[hotlinenpcs]

[It's been horribly frayed. The plastic has been completely worn away with all the internal wires showing.

It really should be replaced, that's not safe!]

(forgets i have a camera and tags this 2 ½ hours later)

[worldchampofmartialarts]

[That looks like it might be important.]

[He takes a picture of both the frayed cord and the screen... though he doubts the latter will be captured very well in a still photo. It's still worth preserving. Not like they can lug a whole arcade cabinet to the trial. ...can they.]
