Round 3:

Ground Floor:
First Floor:
***
Particulars:
Dr. Fistbeard asks the unattended child if he knows what has happened or if he has anything of use which might make traversing the museum easier.
The unattended child responds:
-
Hildibrand Manderville straddles a rather weak beam after watching his monocle glass smash on the floor beneath him. The broken glass disturbs the protesting Ivalicean moogle demanding representation for his kind in the museum's moogle section! The protester stands near to the monocle which disturbed him.
-
Kira Frazer inspects a Lakshmi painting.
It looks quite authentic to Kira...
Wait!
Something sinister is emerging from the painting!
Arrrgghhh!! The ghost within the painting has grabbed Kira Frazer! She is immobile and will be pulled into the painting within two turns if someone doesn't help her out!
NOTE: Kira Frazer can still act if she can use an item or 'grab' an item from nearby to aid her. Try what you like and it might work. Or not.
-
Gerry Adams notices that there is a corpse for the first time and fires his gun into the air.
It is realised by all that Gerry Adams' gun cannot be the murder weapon...
At least not the murder weapon of our Mog Doe...
Gerry Adams' gunfire has hit the delicate beams holding the suspended Sin (and our dear Hildi).
Uh-oh!
Hildibrand plummets to the ground alongside his Sin...
Sin lands on the unfortunate protesting moogle, crushing him to near death. This moogle will likely die next turn so if you wanted to hear his last words, this next turn might be your only chance!
Hildibrand lives... Just.
Hildibrand is immobilised! He cannot move next turn. He can still take a turn in the sense that he can speak muffled words from beneath the ground, or he can 'think' very hard for a turn if he likes.
-
Pepe inspects the trash can and discovers what appears to be a half-consumed antidote.
This object is both a clue and an item and can be consumed should the need be required, at the cost of the points gained for it being a clue.
-
Dirk ♥ has fallen asleep in the lobby.
-
A new detective, OG Angry Bird has now joined the investigation!
-
You may all now post your next moves!

Deciding that this child was quite useless and was a waste of his time Dr.Fistbeard leaves the child with a glare that tells him he better go to the front desk and wait for his parents there, while still deciding to inspect the room he's in. He notices two tanks one with a green zombie like girl at the bottom that the fishes seems curious to snack on as well as some weird battleship like fish again he decides to leave that tank along, the other tank also holds a giant squid like monster which seems would be better left alone. So what catches Fistbeards attention one might ask, why it's the giant trident lying between the two.
"By joves if there is a murderer somewhere in these halls, I could use something to defend myself with. I'm sure museum security would be fine to lend that fine trident to me in this situation." So Dr.Fistbeard wanders over to the trident to see if he can grab it and use it for self defense while in this museum.

"Well, thish hashn't been the besht day for me..." Hildibrand muses to himself with his muffled voice just about audible enough for the slowly dying Ivalician Moogle to hear him. There could have been a minuscule chance that the meticulous murderer could have somehow burrowed his way underground too and is taking refuge just inches below the museum floor, but there appears to be no sign of anything down here. Hildibrand is simply left to reflect at how used he is to the sensation of being wedged head-first into the earth, with half his body somehow lodged 3 feet deep into the concrete with nary a sign of physical head trauma or any fatal spine injuries. Now if only his faithful assistant Nashu were here to give him a hand and a tail...
"Ekhscushe me," mumbles Hildibrand, in hopes that the somewhat bizarre and incongruous bunny-eared Moogle from before is still breathing and can hear him, "I, Hildibrand Manderville, agent of enquiry and inschpector ekshtraordinaire, am on the hunt for a cold-blooded killer. I do believe thish shrewd and inshidious shcoundrel ish shtill shomewhere here in thish musheum and it would appear that he ish not hiding down here. Hash thine pompom witnesshed anything round about the time of the murder?"

Gerry saw what the totally-not-related-Gerry-Adams-mystery-bullet did to the rafters of the room, and hurried over.
"AWWW FAUCKING HELL LAD, YER DUN DER GIT YERSELF STUK DO'N DAR!"
Gerry called to the lad with his ass in the air.
"SUM AUL CUNT WINT AN' SHOTT DAR AOAIR SAW HE DID. I DIDN'T DO IT, BUT I'M SARRRY ME LADDIE"
Gerry said, ruefully looking at the moogle, but totally-not-guilty of anything at all.
He then proceeded to attempt to help the lad stuck in the ground like a dope.

Three turns late, the cocksure cock crack crime-fighter, OGAB, steps over the mounting corpses. He starts to chuckle, then abruptly stops.
That's not me anymore.
It had been many years since the accident. Once he lived a life without consequences in the light of stardom. It had all been fun and games when he was doing the Saturday morning grind. Then one day his agent called. "An action film", she said, "A lot of money." It seemed too good to be true..
It was
He looks into the eyes of the 'Red Herring' in front of him.
Not exactly your typical museum sort.
He turns his head to the left. The blood. The wound. A not-so-subtle reminder of fragility of life... Then to his right...
Well what do we have here...
Coming from a bird, nobody paid any special attention as he whistled a sea song on his way into the History Wing. "Fifteen men on the dead mans chest", he crows to the pirate and then looks from the gun back out the door.
A pirates life for me.

Kira Frazer attempts to grab a painting hanging next to her (the muscly man with the mustache) using it to smack the ghost-or-whatever-it-is in the face.
"Heeeeelp!!" She screams.

Dirk awoke from his slumber. He had been dreaming his favourite dream; the one where he was head chef of the famous Galbadia Hotel creating his iconic Malboro soup. His nose twitched. His dignified moustache fluttered. Dirk's eyes slowly opened. Rolling cutely to his feet he surveyed the environs in which he had unceremoniously fallen asleep. Two information desks manned by a single mooglesque creature and a doorway between them which revealed much chaos within. Oh dear, it seemed that he had been asleep for much longer than was wise and the culprit who had murdered the poor moogle lying somewhere within the museum was becoming ever harder to find with every passing moment.
Lifting his lantern to further light his way, Dirk minced his way to the hallway beyond. Quietly, without gaining much attention from those inside, he walked slowly around the behemoth type beast which had been evidently knocked from his lofty swinging perch above by whomever had ignored the plainly printed warning. There was a foul temper moogleish individual standing in front of the stairwell. Silently Dirk advanced upon it, his lantern held aloft, his knife ready for any sudden and unwanted change of events. Dirk gazed into Moogleish's eyes, his lambient yellow orbs telepathically conveyed his question to the angry being; "What, pray tell, did you see here that put you in such a hostile mood?"

Particulars:
Dr. Fistbeard successfully picks up the Trident of the Oracle and adds it to his inventory. Use it wisely, if at all...
-
Hildibrand questions the protesting moogle as it dies.
The dying moogle replies with this:
-
Gerry Adams tugs at Hildibrand's Manderville. It is difficult, but no different to lifting heavy sacks of potatoes.
Gerry frees Manderville (who can now move next turn).
-
OG Angry Bird inspects the model of Nutbeard the Pirate.
It appears that the ornate 18th Century pistol has recently been fired... OG Angry Bird looks down the gun and out the door to check the trajectory.
It appears that the Nutbeard model lines up nicely with the location where our Mog Doe may have been shot.

Kira Frazer is almost engulfed by the haunted Lakshmi painting when she eventually manages to grab the painting of Dio.
As Kira Frazer begins to pull the painting over in an attempt to hit the ghost on the head the ghost falls head-over-heels in love with Dio...
Managing to whack the Lakshmi painting with the painting of Dio, Kira becomes trapped in an awkward canvas love sandwich...
When things settle down Kira Frazer finds herself freed from the clutches of the ghost. The Dio painting has been absorbed by the Lakshmi and they are joined as one in bliss.
Kira Frazer receives a Maiden's Kiss for her troubles.

Dirk ♥ wakes up and telepathically converses with the grumpy moogle named Mogabod.
Mogabod responds rather angrily.

Ouch, kupo! *cough* Now there's a bottom talking to me. Why me, kupo?! I think I heard some noises but my own yelling was louder I think, kupo! I wasn't paying attention, kupo, especially after the naughty man carrying a big bag knocked me over, kupo! The guy deserves it though.
Oh! I'm dying, kupo! Please don't let the...

Dr.Fistbeard goes back to examine the mysterious outline of what appears to be a box on the floor and wall that the murder victim is lying in.
There is no sweeter sensation than splendid succour from subterranean solitude.
Hildibrand cannot help but grin stupidly, despite his now lack of an iconic monocle. At least he is once again a free man, rejuvenated from that last round, with a fresh rush of adrenaline and a renewed sense of purpose. He immediately breaks into the masculine Manderville dance that has been passed down from father to son in the family for countless generations. It is the dance of nobility. The dance of bravado. A dance of merriment. A dance of...a Manderville man! Although he can't help but suspect that the rather quaint leprechaun with the villainous face is rather unimpressed by the dance. For one, he isn't joining in! Unbelievable. Still, he must be grateful, for this leprechaun has come to his aid just as his faithful assistant Nashu normally would.
"My good man! My humble gratitude is eclipsed by the vigour of your generosity," exclaims Hildibrand to Gerry Adams, "I feared I would be permanently wedged for the entirety of this fine evening, and I am most grateful that you stopped by to assist me. I would deftly return the favour, but alas, I must needs comb every inch of this troubled establishment and find this capricious criminal as quickly as The Twelve will permit me! If ever you require my aid in your own time of need, hesitate not to call Hildibrand Manderville, agent of enquiry and inspector extraordinaire!"
With one friendly grin and another blinding burst of light that is somehow emanating from that brilliant smile, Hildibrand races back upstairs, leaving a cartoonish literal trail of dust in his wake.
Once upstairs, he notices the strange giant monkey rat with the spectacles, crown and red cape is still hanging around at the base of the stairs. No doubt this poor bloke is petrified with shock by tonight's horrific events. Poor thing. He also notices Kiramog who is now wandering around on this level, undoubtedly still trying to look for her iPod. He dearly hopes that it can be salvageable, for it is not inconceivable that the killer has stolen it and is now keenly listening to Wheatus's Teenage Dirtbag as we speak.
Curtly bowing to Kiramog as he passes her, Hildibrand saunters into the art gallery, where he is met with a friendly cacophony of so many colours in one place. It's like a happy room; all the visual joys of the world seem to have congregated here, well versed in the ways of serenading visitors. He notices a rather...green Moogle in front of him. This one doesn't look healthy. Heck, he reminds him of a zombie. Hildibrand has experience with zombies and establishing rapport and working relationships with them. Who can forget that one time he stopped two sisters from creating an undead army to take over the land by working with a band of friendly rotting corpses?
But before he can speak to this Moogle, he notices a peculiar object on the floor, just at the foot of what appears to be a painting of a...hilltop cow and the screaming Greeny man??? He proceeds to inspect this mysterious object.

Contrary to popular belief, OGAB believed, dead men always have a tale to tell.
And Mog Doe's story ends with a bang.
Certainly the nefarious pirate could have indeed owned this pistol. He was also the sort of man who could have used it in his time. Yesterday's pirate, today's patsy, OGAB knew. An 18th century black powder weapon igniting and firing lead into an innocent bystander?
This whole scene has been set up to give the appearance of an accident.
Someone primed this gun recently, and OGAB was going to find out who. Noticing Fistbeard already examining some markings he had mentioned to the cadger in passing, he decides to head upstairs to investigate another angle. The pirates weapon wasn't the only thing out of date, you see. So we're victims clothes.
We're all victims when you wear something fifty years past it's prime.
Deep in thought, he walked in silence. He too was no stranger to clinging on to the past. After all, he hadn't managed to release the sword after it happened. Interrupting his somber train of thought, the frantic Man in Blue. He identifies himself and then asks for any information he may have before proceeding into the Entertainment area.
I wonder if this place has a strip club.

"AYE WART A FUACKING FANNEH LAD"
exclaimed Gerry, delighted to have made a new friend! He was going to meet so many potential soldie- totally not soldiers for the freedom of Ireland. No no, just Sinn Fein party members!
"JASYSUS I NEED A PISH AYE"
Gerry then ran to the bathroom and into a stall, where he began to take a 5 minute piss, his AK on the floor pointed towards the door of the stall.

Pepe hid the antidote in his skirt. "Can't have these heathens stealing my loot".
"Where next?" Pepe thought aloud, like he always did. Being so close to the stairs, Pepe decided to head upstairs to the second floor. Once there, Pepe glanced around the area, his eyes being drawn to the big fucking tree. "That's a big fucking tree, man." Pepe said. Being the loner he is, Pepe kept walking. As his tacky webbed feet flapped against the floor, Pepe thought. "If I was a murder, I would hide my weapon in a place nobody goes... " With that in mind, Pepe headed for the Library. Upon entering the room, he saw a book open on the table and a woman in the back of the room. Woman... book... woman... book. Both were terrible choices... but at least the book can't nag his ear off and at least he could set it on fire and not do 25 to life. Pepe looked at the pages and read their text...

Mogabod's tone was disturbing in its gruffness. It was clear he had no empathy for his fellow moogle who was decaying not more than a few steps away. Dirk gave him a long yellow stare and shuffled away - it was hard thinking of that callous moogle as anyone's father; then again it depended on the "anyone".
Walking quietly into the room marked " Moogle Histories", Dirk politely nodded his adorable head at the brightly coloured bird who had just finished guaging the trajectory of the gun in the pirate statue's hand... interesting. Dirk's attention was then snagged by a figure toting a saxophone in the corner of the room. It put him in mind of the saxophone player who had gyrated for Moldova back in 2010 - it still looked cool, even cooler when done by a copycat moogle.
Dirk had no idea what part of moogle history this statue represented so he went to find out - perhaps it would explain at least some aspect of their strangeness. Dirk found moogles pretty strange.

Shock horror. Kira Frazer sprints out of the Art Gallery and makes her way into the library. She pulls up the Maiden's Kiss item and examines it to maybe figure out what this is for and find some clues*.
"No more paintings for me."
The trash can in the corner catches her and and she walks over to examine what all is in there.**
-----
Dionysos if * doesn't count as a move please take ** as my move. If * does count, disregard **. Ty!

Particulars:
Dr. Fistbeard examines the markings on the floor and wall.
These lines show signs of a mechanism which would open a small part of the floor up and reveal something if activated.
-
Hildibrand examines the green object near the painting of The Hilltop Scream.
Hildibrand finds a gysahl green shaped like a thingy.
If he wishes, Hildibrand can add this to his inventory at the beginning of his next turn (it will not waste any part of the turn).

OG Angry Bird makes his way towards the Entertainment Suite but first bumps into the security guard, Nanaki.
Nanaki has this to say:

Kira Frazer rummages through the library bin.
Kira finds a crumpled note which reads thus:
(I took the bin as the move as the Maiden's Kiss item in the last round doesn't reveal anything else clue-wise, but might come in handy if a certain situation arises in the future)

Dr. Fistbeard examines the markings on the floor and wall.
These lines show signs of a mechanism which would open a small part of the floor up and reveal something if activated.

Hildibrand examines the green object near the painting of The Hilltop Scream.
Hildibrand finds a gysahl green shaped like a thingy.
If he wishes, Hildibrand can add this to his inventory at the beginning of his next turn (it will not waste any part of the turn).

After pressing every where he could to try and activate this mysterious mechanism that the strange markings represented and noticing nothing has happened right away, Dr.Fistbeard decided to go along up to the second floor, and after hearing only a tailend of a conversation about a coruel exhibit and noticing that no one seems to be going in that general direction, Dr.Fistbeard moves into the second exhibit room where he see a courel and ponders if he can do anything to it as he by the mysterious powers of the allmighty force in this museum already performed his one action.

The entertainment lounge was a welcome sight. OGAB had spent many nights and small fortunes in places like this. Never in a museum, truth be told. Tonight, however, he wasn't here to play or drown himself. He was here for answers.
And I'm going to get them.
Sitting down on the sofa, he stares at the dancer in a way that could make a moogle confess his deepest darkest sins. Wondering if he'd have to kill again, adrenaline floods his body. Terrible memories and uncontrollable rage.
........
Long gone was the love of his life. The woman in red that had helped him through the darkest days. In the end though, she slipped through his fingers. Honing his skills in capers such as this was but for one purpose. One day he knew he would catch her again. He would catch Carmen San Diego.
But not today.
Then he grumbled just one simple word to the moogle in front of him, "Talk". The alternative was implied.
Or else.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH DAT WUZ A NOICE PISH AYE"
Gerry exclaimed as he left the stall. He picked up his pissy AK once again, exited the bathroom and decided to head upstairs.
"TAAAIME TA FIND DE MARDERER LAD AYE"
Gerry announces, as he jigs his way around the room. Thinking about the recent election, Gerry says:
"FUACKING DEE-YEW-PEEAY!!! WANKERS I REFUSE TA TAAKE MAI SHEAT, SO AYE DO! "
Gerry then heads to the Christmas tree to see why it has a face.
"AYE WHYYY DA YEH HAVE A FACE?!"
