first investigation.

[thevisitors]

[Today's a still morning, mostly sunny with a few clouds in the sky here and there. It's chilly, peaking at 39F, and the birds chirping are likely what woke you up, like every morning thus far.

There's kind of a faint smell of... something metallic in the air when you step out of your cabins. But surely that can't be anything bad, right?


...maybe you should go out and check.]

[maedae]

Dude.

You've had a camera this whole time? We could have been taking some sick-ass selfies here if you had something sooner!

[Mae and her goddamn priorities, everyone.]

[protojoker]

Holy cra - group selfie. Everyone! We need to capture this occasion. Lesgo! EVERYBODY IN!

[john just. calls out to literally everyone in the vicinity, while raising the camera far above his head.

hux's body is very clearly in the frame.]

[junosteel]

Wh--

[This is happening I guess]

Okay. Taking a picture right in front of a body. Cool. Nice.

[protojoker]

How else are we going to remember this? Memories are such fickle things.

[junosteel]

....I'm not going to argue with that.

[His smile for the camera ends up looking more like he's in pain. It's fine.]

[maedae]

[You better believe this short ass cat is doing her damnedest to make sure she's in this photo, John.]

[protojoker]

[fuckin stand next to the body its fine]

[maedae]

[It figures that the closest Mae will ever allow Hux near her is either via fighting him or posing by his dead body for a selfie, honestly.]

[onlyexplainit]

Group... selfie?

[It’s impossible to tell by his tone whether he’s confused as to what a selfie is or why he would do it with Hux once he frame, but rest assured, he’s confused.]

[protojoker]

Yeah, duh. C'mon, get in, creepy government guy!

[onlyexplainit]

I’ll have you know that I have never worked for the government in my life, nor would I want to if it came down to it.

[simplehunter]

What's a "selfie?"

[protojoker]

Uh, self-portrait. With your camera. I've had to explain this to waaaaayyyy too many people.

[simplehunter]

But that camera is so small?

How does it work?

[dragongod]

Ah... I see. To commemorate him.

[nods sagely. that's the only reason you paint portraits of the dead so it scans that that's what this is about. y'know, objectively he didn't Wildly Care about Hux, but he can appreciate the thought.]

A truly noble use of a selfie.

[protojoker]

Of course! We're..."commemorating" him. It's the only real option here!

[dragongod]

That it is.

[it's a somewhat somber occasion for a portrait, but at least he smiles genuinely for this selfie rather than just looking confused like last time so. sure. it's something.]

[hydrazine]

You’re going to have to tell me what a selfie is first.

[protojoker]

If I have to explain this to one more person, I'm going to curl up and die right next to ol' tall, dark, and ginger over there!

[tenrules]

[Dlanor is from 1986. She has no idea what a selfie is, but she sees the camera aiming towards John and the body and everyone else, and deduces what this is all about]

This is hardly appropriate investigative BEHAVIOR.

[...but she's in the frame, right there, so it could be said she's in the photo]

[protojoker]

Wow. That is really cold-blooded! And after I took you hunting, too! [a loud and audible "HA!"]

[dearboswell]

[Watson listens to John explaining what a selfie is to a few people, though he only sort of gets the gist of it. He doesn't... particularly want to take a selfie with a dead man and is kind of inching away, though John can try to call him over anyway.]

[protojoker]

Hey, doc! You gotta get in this, we can't have a group selfie without that legendary 'stache!

[endlesscrush]

[ throws up a fuckin' peace sign ]

Cheeeeese!
