final investigation
[It's been almost a week since Orthrus' lucky escape. Almost a week, of all calls to Heisenberg going (metaphorically) to voicemail. Almost a week, to rest and recover from the harrowing losses of the previous Friday.
It's been almost a week. And the storms are getting worse.
You know the locked door on the first floor? The one that goes into the center of the tower, right across from the great entry hall doors?
Today, there's a heavy iron key sticking out of the lock. With a familiar crest on the head.
The key is sticky with wet yellow paint, and wetter blood.]

It's shaped like a fileting knife, but there are runes carved into it, and a starburst etched onto the handle.
It practically hums with magic. This is a bonded weapon, of some kind.]

Katsuya proceeds to spend the next minute or two taking pictures of this knife with his compact from all angles without picking it up. Figures.
After that, though, he does attempt to pick it up. Does anything happen when he does?]
no subject
No, nothing happens. In his hands, it's just a normal knife. Albeit sick-looking.]

It's tempting to be petty here. Like, take and misplace it in some dusty corner of the dungeon. Or get in touch with Garfield and ask him to toss this thing into the sea. This knife is clearly a tool of some sort that obtains something from corpses for the Patron's plans, he thinks.
But that'd be a silly thing to do. It's not like there will be more corpses to be under this knife, after all. And even if they all die, Katsuya would rather his last laugh not to be a mere 'haha you dont have a magical knife now what'. Besides, it's a bonded knife.

Taking it along because after coming this far he can allow himself some pettiness alongside the investigative motivations. Nobody is watching him to judge him so may as well do so. Perhaps he'll pass it to, like, Patchouli and ask her to take a look at this magical tool. He'll say he's taking it only because it's evidence]
