second investigation
[Friday again? Oh dear...
It’s entirely possible that the ruthless murder last week was a fluke. A one-off incident that, with the perpetrator dead and dissolved into purple smoke, leaves the surviving apprentices free to try and live out the next 28 days without further bloodshed.
But it’s been a few days since the Alchemist’s motive and just like last week the tower feels deathly still and eerily quiet as people roll out of bed to start their day.]

[... there's a lot of talk about burned smells, does. Could Finn tell if someone tried to rebake the General, did he get set on fire, what.]
no subject
His "skin," for lack of a better word, is ashen and a little charred, and there are a few obvious cuts that were crudely spackled with some kind of makeshift dough.]
no subject
[Toucha da speckle?]
[Is this like flour and water or is this shitty Lofthouse or Pillsbury packaged dough, would he be able to tell.]
no subject
Also, with Stella breaking the body even more, it's obvious that the cookieman is a whole lot more crumbly now that he's gone to the great Drury Lane in the sky.]
no subject
is the... cookie.... crumbly post-mortem? Just gonna. touch it.]
no subject
Conveniently, along the seam where some kind of paste-like dough was applied.]

[JESUS.She just kindof. Nudges the arm back onto the body, half heartedly--]
no subject
[He's just gonna reach over and help tap the arm back into place.]
Yeah, they- Candy People can kind of. Get like that. After.

[Like the arm has pieces missing? Is this what the dough-spackle was trying to fix?]/small>
no subject
But the reason it fell off so easily in the first place, is because it was completely severed.]
no subject
[What's the wound look like under the spackle, like a cut, like a rough break]
[Please don't be teethmarks]
no subject
It looks like it, like the other injuries to his cake arm and like the cut almost all the way across his little body, was a clean slash.]

[Phas is tired today]

[Please tell me his head is still attached, idk why that seems objectively worse than what's already here]
no subject
Since Finn probably knows candy anatomy better than anyone else still alive, there's a pretty good chance that the near-bisection was what finally cut the cookie down.]
no subject
[Just gonna leave that the math alone, none them need to see more jam or candy guts right now.]
[Anything else of note about the body?]

[This feels like a newer experience than it should.]
[... let's examine that later.]
Thanks.
