SO YOU WANT TO STEAL SOME CHILDREN (Endgame Catchall)

[facultwist]

Welcome to the container for your endgame! This will be the place where you can perform your polterheist (we really love that portmanteau), and where you'll be able to commentate on the final trial!

ICly, the whole heist will take place Monday, while the final trial watch will take place Thursday. For anything not related to endgame, please continue to use the main deadland post!

[Hopefully that ghost-detecting stuff can't sense moods because Vanity is going into this looking like thunderclouds.]

[What've we got in this first open room on the right, gang?]

[facultwist]

[ You've found the landscaping supplies storage room, Vanity! There's all sorts of things in here to keep the campus foliage looking fresh, including shears, rakes, shovels, bags of mulch—that kind of thing. ]

[sweetsynergy]

[Anything seem out of place or recently used?]

[...she may be the wrong person for this.]

[facultwist]

[ Nope, it looks honestly pretty untouched. Not much need for landscaping when you're in the middle of a storm. ]

[sweetsynergy]

[Filing this away for later then, unless something jumps out.]

[Gonna be methodical and head across the hall to the opposite room.]

[facultwist]

[ You've found the general supply storage! There's tons of boxes, a little dustier than the landscaping. They're filled with papers and notebooks and binders... A bunch of extra school stuff. ]

[sweetsynergy]

[Similarly, any of that dust look disturbed recently?]

[facultwist]

[ It does not! ]

[sweetsynergy]

[To be clear before moving on, this is packaged, unused paper or like records and printouts?]

[facultwist]

[ That is correct! ]

[sweetsynergy]

[My god, O has been running an office supply racket on top of the murder. The fiend.]

[...what kind of green motherfucker we got in the hallway ahead?]

[facultwist]

[ It's a REM Pod, baby! These things detect temperature fluctuations. When they do, they start to emit a high-pitched noise. ]

[sweetsynergy]

[Thanks for the tutorial from Rinne, she definitely doesn't say out loud.]

[If she hugs the wall and scoots past is that sufficient distance?]

[trustheart]

[ Chris heads into the connecting room north of here, having followed Vanity, making sure to keep out of range of the ghost detecting equipment, which is...? ]

[facultwist]

[ The ghost hunting equipment in this room is a Boo Buddy! Cute little teddy bear. In fact, as you enter, it sounds off: ]

Hi, I'm Boo Buddy! What's your name?

[ ...That aside, you've found a room with boxes of various decorations, sorted by season. Plastic bats and cobwebs for Halloween, somewhat gaudy turkeys for Thanksgiving, etc. The spot for Christmas decorations, predictably, is empty. ]

[trustheart]

[ Yeah, Chris isn't responding to that at all. She moves through the room carefully, making sure not to make any sound whatsoever, weaving through the rows of directions.

What's in the connecting room? And can she stay out of the range of the thermal camera? ]

[facultwist]

[ Boo Buddy remains woefully unanswered. F.

Chris will find the top left room full of chairs and folding tables, and a portable podium. This room is for graduation ceremony supplies. As long as she doesn't venture into the northwestern most corner of the room, she can get through undetected.

Now, back into the main hall? That may be a little trickier. ]

[trustheart]

[ Before she leaves, is there anything to be found in here? Like, a reason why they would put a thermal camera in the corner of the room?

[facultwist]

[ To your knowledge, no. The podium is tucked away in that corner, but that's the only thing of note. ]

[trustheart]

[ ...Chris is still suspicious. She's going to try and look for anything that might be providing power to or connecting to the camera. ]

[facultwist]

[ The camera looks to be wireless. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like you can turn it off traditionally unless you get up close. ]

[trustheart]

[ She looks around...how much power would she expend to pick up and throw a chair at it?

[facultwist]

[ If she tries to do this all on her own, it will wipe her out. However, if she teams up with someone... Well, that's another story. ]

[bellpepperexercise]

[Hi Chris, it's Kana. Noting what she seems to be considering, Kana cocks her head towards the chair. She doesn't want to risk being picked up by a boo buddy, so she's sticking with non-verbal communication for now.]

[trustheart]

[ Chris spots Kana, and nods. She points to the chair, and walks over to it, motioning for her to follow. She grabs one side, and waits for Kana to come over and grab the other before lifting it up. ]
