Professor Mauve nodded at the woman. "It seems like most people are on the top two floors, yes. How is the wine?" She glanced casually around the rest of the room. Mr. Grey had certainly spared no expense in the room.

*BONG* The huge grandfather clock in the foyer rings out nine times, signalling that the time is now 9:00 P.M.

Nadir

Master Eden Indigo jumped at the sound of the distantly chiming clock, remembering suddenly what they were all trying to discover. Signs of nefarious deeds of a different nature... with a sign, the one eyed man left the Master Bedroom, a meandered the halls until he came to the Trophy Room. Indigo recoiled at the sight of the mounted animals, and almost turned and fled, but managed to stand his ground. He pulled a silken kerchief from his pocket and held it over his mouth and nose as he advanced into the morbid room. He hadn't seen this room before, his acquaintance with Mr Grey more or less restricted to correspondence and only infrequently was an invitation extended by either of them for dinners and the like.

Seeing how much joy Grey took in useless death was surprising, however. "I suppose everyone has their.... fetishes, but this sort is not one I care for."

Deciding it best to change where she was with the hour, Mocha sets off to a new room. There hasn't been anything for her to discover yet, and she's not sure the kitchen holds the answers she needs. After some consideration she sets off to the Master Bedroom. It may help to start in his living space.

Ryven

With preparation done and kitchen clean, the good chef decided that a change of scenery was in order.  The kitchen was definitely his domain, but it seemed his trail had run dry there.  He untied his apron and set it upon the counter with his hat, moving from the room to try and discover other clues elsewhere.  Perhaps the Master Bedroom would lend him more luck.

Professor Mauve smiled and sat down IB a cozy armchair, deciding to stay where she was. Perhaps there was more to be found in the wine cellar; in any case, she was perfectly comfortable. She felt no actual desire to taste the wine, though. She didn't drink, and it seemed like such a waste to open a bottle someone would be so willing to pay for.

Missy

Having found no clues the Major sighed and turned to find Miss Scarlett standing behind him. "Pardon me Madame, you haven't been there long?" he asked, slightly surprised he wondered if he had just walked by her only moments before in his preoccupied state of mind.

Valerian

With a sigh, Professor Verde abandoned the Library for the moment and headed for the Kitchen -- just in time to see two people leaving it.  That was probably not too much of a surprise, however; she doubted anyone had much of an appetite just then.  There was always a good deal to explore in any kitchen, though, so she had some hopes of discovering something of interest.  She was not much of a cook herself, but it seemed well-stocked and equipped as well as clean and tidy, the sort of place any chef would enjoy working in, and she was not surprised to discover that Mr. Grey had had such a kitchen.

Lord Mayerling

With some trepidation, the Rote Baron entered the kitchen. This was an almost literal smorgasbord of potential murder weapons. As he answered he found the captivating Professor Verde already within. However, was she investigating, or was she stashing? Something in his gut told him that no one calling themselves a Professor could be a murderer.

“Guten abend, Professor,” the Baron made his presence known, and started looking for something, anything suspicious within the room.

She had watched the man before her for a bit and then finally he had given her a bit of notice back. Giving him a smile and a slight shake of her ebon locks she replied quietly in her usual soft voice.

"No.. not at all. Do you see something of interest?"

Major Mustard seemed to be in his own world and Miss Scarlett had to wonder just what he was thinking. It wasn't moments before the she turned her gaze toward Master Indigo and nodded politely. She gave a half smile, in light of the current situation, too much of a smile might make her seem happy that Mr Grey had met his end. It wasn't as if she were sad about it, but she had wondered who to thank for plucking such a thorn from her side.

Currently: in the Master Bedroom with Chef Sage Green

It seemed she had a companion from the kitchen with the same ideas as her. "Hello, Chef," Madame Mocha said said, smiling sadly over. There was a temptation to try and band an alliance, but she couldn't know if anyone was listening or that the chef himself had done the deed. As much as she wanted to at least figure something out, she didn't know if what she would be told was the truth.

Miss Plum heard the grandfather clock strike the hour but moved only to sit at the kitchen table, she glanced up from her mug to see Madam Mocha leave and soon after the chef. It seemed as if she would get no peace at all to think as Professor Mauve entered. Miss Plum merely nodded at her before returning to her mug of coffee. The baron entered soon after and greeted the professor. Miss Plum wondered if either had even noticed her and looked back at her coffee mug before placing it down on the table with her hands still around it as if keeping them warm.

"The coffee in the pot is fresh" she told them both, wondering if perhaps one of them was the murderer.

Dismayed that her attempts at being social were not exactly encouraged by the others, Miss Brown retreated from the library and found herself out in the hall. Without realizing where her wandering was taking her, she found herself outside of the conservatory and decided she might as well have a look around. Stepping through the doorway she breathed in the scent of fresh greenery and damp earth and tried to stay on task and not waste time appreciating  Mr. Grey's horticultural prowess. Poor man. She checked the shelves and small cabinets where various tools and supplies were kept, hoping her memory of past hours here would help her ascertain if something were amiss.

Doctor Emerald, having had a sneaking suspicion since her investigation of the library, made her way down to the wine cellar, feeling that there may be something worth her time among the bottles found there. With curious eyes, she began her search and investigation of the room, keeping to herself mostly as she went about trying her best to deduce what may or may not have occurred here.

Missy

The Major smiled at the woman "You know I don't believe we've met. I'm Major Dijon Mustard, it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance madame" he was trying to make up for his past rudeness but it also occurred to him that no one in the house was above suspicion in this matter. He was about to speak once more when Master Indigo entered the room.

It would seem that the guests had started to shuffle around more, and the more people that came down into the wine cellar with hir, the more nervous shi got. So bottle in hand, Miss Rainbow headed up the stairs, glancing into several rooms before finally settling inside the Library. After taking a swig from her bottle, shi idly walked around the room, occasionally running her fingers down the spine of a book. Maybe here shi could find some peace and quiet.

Missy

Thinking again of the matter at hand Major Mustard left the trophy room with a smile and nod towards Master Indigo and Miss Scarlet and a "well I will speak with you later"

Major Mustard took the stairs down towards the Wine Cellar[/u] perhaps a bit of wine will clear my mind he thought.

FoamWeber

Professor Mauve got to her feet reluctantly. The room was getting to be far too crowded for her taste, especially with a murderer about. Even more importantly, it was causing her almost physical pain seeing these people casually opening the wine bottles. Did they not have any idea how much they were worth? The fools. Perhaps she'd be able to clear her head in the conservatory.

Beguile's Mistress

Lady Lavender had frozen at the sound of voice in the conservatory but when no other sound had been forthcoming she took a quick look around the humid environs but was hard pressed to see anything amiss.  None of the plants had been damaged nor the soil disturbed by hands seeking to conceal a murder weapon so nursing the pin prick on her index finger she slowly left to find a more productive field of exploration.

Wandering through the mansion she came to a room that seemed to be neglected by most of the guests.  Plaques adorned the walls along with framed certificates and glass cases held bronzed and silver statuettes with here and there the glint of gold among them.  It appeared that Mr. Grey was quite the accomplished sportsman Lady Lavender thought as she looked around the trophy room and decided to make a more thorough inspection of the many hiding places the room provided.

Josietta



Miss Scarlett looked from Master Indigo toward Major Mustard and nodded. "A pleasure, I am Miss Scarlett. I am sure we will speak again sometime. Good Luck with what you may find or seek." As he made his exit she gave a polite smile and looked back to the room at hand. Moving over toward the area the Major was at she looked around to see just what was so intriguing that he didn't even notice her there. Her eyes roamed around the bust and then looked over toward the entry way as Lady Lavender stepped into the room. She gave another polite smile to the female and then looked back at the molded likeness of the Grey family.

Dr Silver moved from the main room towards the Trophy Room. The lack of reply from Master Indigo stood out as rude, but he said nothing about it. He saw two women inside the room and smiled. -Good Evening.- He spoke the short greeting and took a hand to his forehead, mocking a salute with his hat, which should now be waiting in the coat's room. Dr. Silver glanced at his pocket watch and hoped that everything would be solved soon.

Josietta



As Dr Silver entered the room as well she gave a polite nod and half curtsie to the man then looked toward the Lady as she spoke to them all.

"Have you heard any news as of yet? I do hope they find something out. Its unnerving to be settled in such a large place with a deranged individual running loose doing whatever pleases their fancy. I'm afraid for all of our lives. We truly should stay together in groups. Wouldn't you think?"

She tilted her head a bit and pushed back a dark lock from her honey brown eyes. It was a trying night as they all searched and she could use a glass of wine but knew that she had to stay in one area to maintain her own safety. Hopefully amongst those who were trustworthy.

*BONG* The huge grandfather clock in the foyer rings out ten times, signalling that the time is now 10:00 P.M.

As the time ticked away, Mocha was getting more an more nervous. There was a murderer among them... And who knew if or when the murderer would strike again! Waving wearily at the chef,  she decided to check another room for clues. Perhaps a she could find something in the Library.

Niferbelle


Perhaps it was the shock of the discovery of Mr. Grey's body that had been keeping Miss Brown's nerves at bay but that was clearly wearing off now and she was beginning to fray at the edges. The conservatory was doing nothing to soothe her anymore nor was it inspiring her intellect so she decided once again to drift on, gasping as she was startled by Professor Mauve entering.

"Excuse me, I'm a little on edge tonight," Miss Brown said with a wan smile then simply nodded and swept through the door out into the corridor with a polite nod.

She walked awhile then paused, staring up the staircase to the upper floors, trying to gather up her courage. To be thorough, she would have to investigate everywhere though there was one room in particular she never wanted to see the inside of again. But best to get it over with, she decided, and made her way up to the master bedroom, creeping in quietly and unaware if there were someone already there.
