Poke it With a Stick | Day 9 | Afternoon [OPEN]
[Scenario A: for Aradia]
As soon as Lights has finished fashioning some sort of belt to hang mysterious treasure pouch (containing one particular eye shaped jewel) he goes off in search of one girl he knows for a fact will be very excited to hear about these kinds of discoveries.
He's not entirely sure why he feels the need to show off, or to impress her, but he ends up settling on the fact that life has been fairly boring as of late, and if they are going to find a room full of mysterious treasure he may as well invite the changeling with a noted preoccupation with such things. Also, he kind of likes appearing to know things that other people don't - so it's best to get this out of the way before news of the secret rooms gets blown wide.
So as soon as he finds the glass fairy girl, he is quick to approach her with the most tempting of inquiries:
"Hey. Wanna see a dead body?"
[Scenario B: OPEN]
Okay, so there is definitely one more corpse in this room than he remembers there being. Most importantly, the second corpse looks distinctly like Huo from the search party.
The bird woman they found on the table initially is still lying there, her chest covered in the same shimmering green blood. But now there is also Huo on the floor, with a spilled bottle at their side. They definitely seems pretty damn dead. He checked and everything.
With the initial hysteria passed, Lights is mostly trying to decide what to do. He's not heartbroken exactly, but he's unnerved. How do you deal with a corpse around here?
Meanwhile, the secret entrance to the Hearth Room is just hanging open, allowing any passerby to observe this predicament.
[Scenario C: OPEN]
A little bit later, Lights is buzzing around the rest of the house looking for a friend of his. He figures she should know that the fucking page is dead, after all. He floats here and there, occasionally calling her 'name.'
"Hey - uh...Brimstone? Something has kind of come up that you should probably take a look at. Kind of a big deal, here."

no subject
The name-calling certainly doesn't help her settle down, either; she has adopted a decidedly offensive stance, ready to pounce at Lights.
no subject
"The bird lady has been here for days already, you can ask anybody. As for Huo, there sure as fuck doesn't seem to be any killing wounds on that body, now does there?"
no subject
She relaxes. "The hell happened here, then?"
no subject
"I'm pretty sure drinking that shit has something to do with it."
no subject
"W... Hey, I just walked in here and say two dead bodies, ya can't expect me to notice every little detail!"
no subject
no subject
"Anyway, what're we gonna do about this?"
no subject
The comment is lighthearted, but it's said with a genuine sort of distaste that implies that he really is quite vexed that someone would get themselves killed this way.
no subject
Not that she doesn't like jumping on board when it comes to insulting people (in varying degrees of seriousness), but the fact that these are dead bodies makes the situation seem somewhat more dire.
no subject
"Whatever," he says, his ears flattening. It's not like corpses care about anything.
