*INVISIBLE INK FTW* <3

In which Shoon and Kidd follow their first clue to solve the Case of the Mysterious Weather, but things don't turn out quite as planned...



Shoon: *pokes his head into the cell that Kidd calls an office* Yo, detective Jr. You here?

Kidd: *swivels around in his chair to look cool, but loses balance and falls off* afsjidfdlfkj I'm here!

Shoon: *steps in and looks aroud* kinda...dank in here... *turns to Kidd* You know how you wanted clues about the freaky weather, well....I think I got one

Kidd: *scrambles to his feet and adjusts his bow tie* What??? You do?! Well? Spill the beans!

Shoon: Well... while I was traveling I heard a story about a type of bust. It was a magical bust that was used to bring warm weather to the high mountains.
Shoon: Maybe one's here.

Kidd: Bust? You mean like a statue? Magic is a bit of a grey area though... *sketchy look*

Shoon: *does a palms up* Hey, it's just a story I heard...and it makes since doesn't it? Someone here probably activated it by accident which caused the mass melt and flash freeze. And, yes. The statue kind of bust. Of a beautiful woman.

Kidd: So you're saying there's some random, magical statue floating around somewhere that someone accidentally activated? *scratches his chin*

Shoon: Hey, it's the best lead we've got. *smirks* Unless you've come up with something better?

Kidd: No, nothing yet. *quietly begins jotting down notes* Who is your source?

Shoon: Some old dude down in Zelant. I was talking to some of my friends about my travels and the stories I had heard.

Kidd: *raises his eyebrows* Where do you think this statue could be?

Shoon: Hell if I know. There's art all around here, that's why I'm talking to you. So we can go look for magical busts.

Kidd: I have an idea! Do you know that guy, Euram? He seems really into art--I've seen him pacing around the statuary on the second floor. I bet if we interrogate him, he'd know something!

Shoon: Ummm.... I figured we could just head to the art galleries and look....but...

Kidd: Do you have any idea how many "beautiful ladies" there are in that room? >_>

Shoon: ......I'm not really on friendly terms with him. And knowing his taste in art he wouldn't have it.
Shoon: So, how about it? You me, looking for magic busts.

Kidd: You've got yourself a deal, sidekick. *strikes a pose* *_* We should divide our attention between learning more about what the locals say regarding this mysterious bust, and identifying what is already located in
Budehuc.

Shoon: *stares at Kidd* What did you call me?

Kidd: *pretends not to hear Shoon and tosses a notebook at him with a pen and magnifying glass* You're going to needs these!

Shoon: *catches them* Hey, wait I don't think we really-
Shoon: Need, all of this. Why can't we just go look at the busts
Shoon: And Why am I the sidekick?

Kidd: You don't know the first thing about sleuthing, my good man! *tut-tut finger gesture* Sure, we can look at the busts, but do you really think that's sufficient?

Shoon: Well, wouldn't we need to find out how many busts of woman there are in the castle frist? And then get the history on them? I mean....it seems more time efficent that way.

Kidd: Of course we can do that, but on the off chance the bust isn't even here it's important to cover as much ground as possible! *sparkles*

Shoon: But it's got to be here. Otherwise it wouldn't have melted all the snow. *does not want this to turn into a big thing*

Kidd: *decides to humor his rookie apprentice* Very well, for the sake of time, we'll take your route~ But take the magnifying glass anyways!

Shoon: *raises an eyebrow but sighs* Fine. Let's take a look at the art galleries then.

Kidd: Onward! *_* *strikes another pose*

Shoon: And why do you keep posing? It's weird!

Kidd: ... *bgm cues shortly afterwards and he holds the pose*

Shoon:........
Shoon: What are you doing?

Kidd: *ignores Shoon again* On to the statue emporium! *scampers off up the lower level stairs*

Shoon: Hey! Wait up! *being in the best shape possible he catches up esaily*

Kidd: *but his nimble scrawny legs and skimpy shorts are so ergonomic for running!--is outrun regardless*

Shoon: *stops at the top of the stairs* Come on. Let's look at the gallery next to Thomas' office frist, and then let's see if it's in the liabary.

Kidd: *refuses to let Shoon take the lead and swerves off to the side to get ahead* I know there's a statue of an angel in there, I think.

Shoon: *follows* It's not going to be an angel. Just of a woman. Maybe she's wearing a crown.

Kidd: *reaches the top of the stairs* And it's just a bust, not a full statue?

Shoon: Yes, just a bust. Weren't you listening?

Kidd: I'm just verifying information! *indignant*

Shoon: Yeah, well, pay attention.
Shoon: *gets ahead again and opens the door to the gallery.*

Kidd: *peers in, the room is dark* I wish I brought a candle...

Shoon: *goes back out and takes a candle from the hall and begins to light the candles in the room and muttering to himself* C'mon, c'mon, please be here.

Kidd: Hey, is this it?? *grabs Shoon and ushers him over to a statue... which turns out to be a squat dwarf* ...

Shoon:.............No.
Shoon: *sighs and takes another look around the room.* I see one bust of a woman...*points to it and walks over* But...I don't think this is it. *Pokes at it*

Kidd: *looks up at it with his magnifying glass* Does it look like a queen?

Shoon: No. More like a noble.

Kidd: Yeah, I don't see a crown or anything. ... *glances at the bust's prominent... bust >_>*

Shoon: *notices this and sniggers* C'mon Romeo, let's go to the library and see what they got there.

Kidd: I was looking for a royal crest!!! XO *scowls and follows Shoon*

Shoon: Suuure you were *smirks and starts to blow out the candles and then heads to the library*

Kidd: *trails behind obstinately, displeased with not being the leader* Last time I saw "art" in the library was the graffiti painting hanging up by the encyclopedias.

Shoon: Well, let's hope they got statues too.

Kidd: *scurries up ahead and holds the door open for Shoon* Ladies first~

Shoon: *raised eyebrow again* Dude. I've known ladies who can wipe the floor with you.

Kidd: *stubbornly scowls* Are you going in the library or not?

Shoon: Fine. *scowls* Are you sure you're older than me?

Kidd: I'm a detective! You don't question my certainty!

Shoon: No, but I can question your maturity. *sighs and looks around* I'm not seeing anything.

Kidd: Hey, there's that graffiti! :D *points* I was right! ... Well, I mean, I always am.

Shoon: *looks at the graffiti* Hey, not bad.

Kidd: I like that little badger-looking blot in the bottom corner myself.

Shoon: That's the artist's tag.

Kidd: ... I know that! I was just saying I appreciate their amorphous aesthetic. >_>

Shoon: I used to...know people who did graffiti. Really awesome stuff.
Shoon: Very political

Kidd: *files away this nugget of knowledge while turning a corner, browsing down another row of shelves* I'm not seeing anything, unless you count bookends.

Shoon: *quietly* No.... Are there any other places where someone might put a bust?

Kidd: Only people who collect art, I'd assume. Again, I'm thinking that Euram guy would be worth interrogating.

Shoon: He won't have it. *suddenly punches the wall, making it crack a bit* Damnit!

Kidd: W-whoa! I know you're a pretty macho dude, punching through ice and all, but this is the library!!

Shoon: *past listening to anyone at this point. he turns around and marches out of the office, looking livid*

Kidd: *scrambles off after Shoon, trailing behind him like a frantic puppy* Let's--let's just cool down for a bit, yeah? There's a time to be macho and a time to be rational!

Shoon: *is against a wall trying to calm down and seething* That bastard. I'll break his face in. I'll- I'll he'll! ARG! *pounds the wall enough make the paintings shake*

Kidd: Pound his face... *gulps* L-look, Shoon, do you uh... ... *lamely offers Shoon a bar of chocolate from his pocket* ...

Shoon: *looks at it, then at Kidd, and takes it* ...thanks.

Kidd: *WHEW* ... ... *totally uncertain of what to do next*

Shoon: I have to... talk to Kyle. Thanks for the help.

Kidd: No... no problem, anytime, haha. *wonders if Kyle is the one whose face is about to earn a new crater*

Shoon: *nods and then heads to his an Morgan's room*
