[ A radiantly adorable woman, as sweet as can be, appears on screen. Tears are flowing down her porcelain cheeks. She looks utterly harmless. ]

Oh no... I can't believe I lost it...

At my cell...? Well, it's B-106, but I'm not sure if you'd be allowed into this block...

[tanteiotaku]

If I'm with you on official business, I'm sure it'll be fine. I'll meet you at the block entrance.

[traces]

All right. Thank you, Mr. Detective.

[tanteiotaku]

[A wild detective promptly appeared!]

It's a pleasure to finally meet you in the flesh, Ms. Hawthorne.

[traces]

[ She's waiting for him at the entrance to the cell block, and her eyes widen when she sees him. OMG, a real hard-boiled detective! He will save her!

As if. ]

N-no, the pleasure is mine, Mr. Detective.

[tanteiotaku]

[No, please, contain your glee.]

Lead the way, then. I happen to be particularly good at finding things.

[traces]

So you said! [ She leads the way to her cell. ] I... I hope you can find it. My life is in your hands.

[ Needless to say, there is no candy anywhere to be found in her cell.

It's in her bra. ]

[tanteiotaku]

And in very capable hands it is. [This is where he'd tip his hat. IF HE HAD ONE.]

[And he dutifully scours the place, sorry Sena, but the thing is nowhere to be found.]

Not here... Then... What was the first place you went after you woke up yesterday?

[traces]

[ She dutifully puts on a disappointed look. ]

The shower, I think, and then the cafeteria. I've already checked the shower, since I'm sure you wouldn't be allowed in.

[tanteiotaku]

Ah, if it fell somewhere public someone else may have picked it up. But, maybe they missed it. Would you come with me so you can show me which table you used? [Dahlia you set this monster upon yourself.]

[traces]

Um-- sure, all right...

[ Siiiigh. He's nothing if not persistent.

She'll lead the way, though. She better get something out of this. ]

[tanteiotaku]

[Probably just more irritated is all you'll get.

But as they walk he's paying attention to floor, just in case it was dropped on the way.]

[traces]

[ She keeps her head bowed, one hand on her collarbone demurely.

Needless to say, even if he turns the entire cafeteria upside down he won't find a thing. ]
