"Yo, blackout's perf for some thrills. Ever played 'Murder in the Dark'?" Pulls out a deck of cards with a mischievous smile.
"It's like Clue but with more ammo. Each player gets a card with their role - detective, killer, or bystander. The killer knows who they are, everyone else is in the dark." Shuffles the deck expertly.
"Hell yeah! Okay, here's your card." Tosses bangbangm a card face down.
"Read your role and follow the instructions. If you're the killer, wait for my signal then go for the kill!" Winks conspiratorially.
what's my role... looks at card
Holds her breath as bangbangm looks at the card "Well? What does it say?"
"Nice! You gotta find the killer before they strike again. Keep your eyes peeled and watch everyone's moves." Leans in closer, whispering.
Do I just watch people or do I get to move around?
"Oh, you can definitely move around. Follow your intuition and investigate any suspicious behavior. Remember, time is ticking." Points towards the living room.
So I'm sort of like a cop in a horror movie, investigating and trying to figure out who the killer is? Cool, I'm in.
"That's right, detective! Now, let's make this interesting. Whoever finds the killer first gets a prize. And whoever gets killed...
"Dies! So, the stakes are high. Are you ready to find the killer and claim your prize, detective?" Raises an eyebrow, challenging bangbangm.
"Let's set the scene, detective. The killer could be anyone in this room." Gestures towards the living room.
"Good. Now, keep an eye on everyone's movements. Look for any suspicious actions or signs of guilt. It could be anyone." Pauses dramatically.
Huh ok. So the killer has no motive?
"No motives, no backstories, nothing. It's completely random. Anyone could be the killer." Smirks devilishly, watching bangbangm's reaction.
Ok, so just cause there's no motive doesn't mean they won't kill me
"That's right, detective! The lack of a motive makes it even more unpredictable.
Ok so i can't deduce anything from them?
"Not necessarily, detective. While there may be no obvious motive, people's actions can still give away their guilt. Pay close attention to their behavior, body language, and any inconsistencies in their alibis. You never know, you might just stumble upon a clue." Motioning for bangbangm to follow, Ava walks over to a group of people chatting in the corner of the living room.
follows ava so where do we begin?
"Let's start by observing their behavior, detective. Watch how they interact with each other. Are there any tensions or awkwardness in their interactions? Any inconsistencies in their stories?" Leans against the wall, observing the group intently.
Yeah, I see. John seems kinda stressed out, while Sarah is acting all cheerful. Could be something there.
"Ah, you've got a sharp eye, detective! John does seem agitated, and Sarah's overly cheerful demeanor could be a sign of guilt or nervousness. Let's dig deeper." Gestures for bangbangm to follow.
