[welcome to the void.

anyway, laudna can be found in the midst of trying to pop a dislocated joint out of place on her arm.]

Did you know there's a dead body in the theater? How macabre.

[underinworld]

[That dislocated joint fixing gets Erin to wince. Uf, awesome thing to see when she's already on edge, it unnerves her]

Yeah, I heard a thing or two. How swell, the place I slept at last night had a dead body. Peachy.

[Erin was fine with the theater but now, well, not really, she doesn't want to sleep there anymore]

You found it, right?

[undread]

Nearly every place you sleep likely has a few bodies buried.

[she's perfectly casual.]

I did. Took a little tumble from that trap door.

[underinworld]

Okay, a fresh corpse. Not the time for technicalities.

[Later she won't be too surprised Laudna is so casual about this, but right now it sure bothers her]

Did anything hint there was a dead body in that trapdoor? Before you took a little tumble.

[A little tumble that apparently dislocated your arm. Not so little, she thinks]

[undread]

[eh. she's a corpse lady, her whole body is pretty fragile.]

The place was a mess - it certainly seemed that there had been a struggle.

Okay, Aventurine didn't go down meekly. Good to know.

[Not a 100% the conclusion you should get from hearing such a thing, Erin, but yeah, he probably didn't]

So, you saw the dead body. How was... [She makes uncertain faces, until she just fires the question, deciding there was no reason not to be frank] What killed him? The fall? Someone beat him to death?

[Erin really is hoping for too much info right now. Since she's unaware a trial will happen, she really is throwing herself into any and all avenues of investigation]
