Mrs. Sakaki, I'd like to request your help with something, to hopefully make sure something doesn't blow up into a larger mess.

They've got quite the set-up in here.

*She moves further into the room, shining the flashlight around to look for a good place to start looking, like desks or tables that could have notes or paperwork on them.*

We should see if they left any kind of paper trail into what they were doing, or where they could've gone.

[danse_etoile]

Right...

::Flicking through papers... UFOs... Atlantis is made of Crystals. Elvis was actually a shaved Sasquatch... Hypnotic Crystals... The Empress is actually from Zeta Reticulant...

Hrm...

She flicks one and pulls it out and looks at it.::

I might have something.

[sakaki_family_values]

*Yoko walks over to Asuka, curiously.*

What have you found?

[danse_etoile]

Scrawled notes listing seven possible mysteries of the school.

[sakaki_family_values]

Hmm... mysteries of the school, you say.

*She looks over the notes to see if there is any indication if there was a specific one they were looking into.*

[danse_etoile]

::It's the usual suspects.

Hanako of the Toilet.

The Stairs with the Strange Number of Steps.

The Missing Music Room with the Beethoven Portrait.

The Eerie Anatomical Model.

The Hallway That Isn't There.

Etc.

There's lines connecting the Music Room and Anatomical Model.::

[sakaki_family_values]

*She gestures towards the notes on the music room and the model.*

It seems they were looking into that mysterious extra room we found a while back and it's spooky inhabitant.

[danse_etoile]

... The anatomical model with the Beethoven bust for a head?

[sakaki_family_values]

*She nods and points to the lines connecting the music room and anatomical model.*

It seems to match up with the two things connected here.
I wonder if they went looking for this at all.

[danse_etoile]

Possible. And we never confirmed the intents of that entity.

::Tapping her chin.::

[sakaki_family_values]

Hmm, I think we need to find the room again and see if this is where those students are.

[danse_etoile]

... Yes. That seems the smartest immediate move, ma'am. And I think we're as reasonably armed as two working mothers can be expected to be.

::Snarks a little.::

[sakaki_family_values]

*She laughs a little*

Alright. Let's go and find this room and our mysterious guest and hope it'll also lead to these students.

[danse_etoile]

Right, and I think it was where a music room shouldn't be based on the plans, right?

::Starts walking.::

[sakaki_family_values]

*Walks beside you, giving a nod.*

Yes, that's what it seems, anyway.

[danse_etoile]

... Great.

::She starts tracing a finger on the wall.::

[sakaki_family_values]

Now the question is whether this room will even show up for us again.
We pretty much accidently stumbled across it last time.

[danse_etoile]

... Maybe it only shows itself to those who let themselves get lost?

[sakaki_family_values]

I guess that is possible. All we can do is wander around in the direction we think it was in and see if it shows up for us.

[danse_etoile]

... Is it weird I'm not used to having someone as engaged as you, when it comes to things like that?

::Ponders.::

[sakaki_family_values]

*She looks over with a curious look*

Oh? Well I guess not everyone likes to acknowledge that there are things out there that they may not understand or can make any sense off.

[danse_etoile]

Yeah, or are too scared.

It's. Nice having... maybe ambition isn't the right word... Someone who's... action first?

[sakaki_family_values]

I've been through scarier things in my life and I'd rather take action when it's needed, instead of leaving it to someone else.

And as the Principal, it's my job to make sure I know what's going on and find the best ways to keep the students and staff here safe.

[danse_etoile]

Yes, and I appreciate you're more willing to throw hands, I think is the expression.

::Smiles.::

[sakaki_family_values]

*She laughs a little.*

Quite true. Though we'll have to see exactly what this specific situation brings us.

I like to try and resolve things a bit more peacefully these days, if I can, but if things are too dangerous and those kids are in trouble, well...

*She motions to the baseball bat*

We do have other options.
