Bittersweet Candy Bowl

(you dont have to count the explosion as canon…i dont think )

(Did mike just blow everything to hell? Is that even allowed?)

(someone accuse someone else!)

(pulls out detonator and points at explosives in room.) Lucy…….. Just in case we die…..I’ll take us all out……they can’t just get away with this. I love you…..

“Tess is part of this.. somehow. We need to find her and -now-” Sue says glancing around the room. (And yeah Sorry Mike. It just ain’t funny no more and yes. Accusing Tess! She thought she was so smart&hellip

I believe it was Paulo and Tess!!!

Motherfucker you got it good doctor but why!!

I believe there can only be one murderer…

Wait, what? Did Mike just win?

Yes but he needs motive

add motive and it could be a double win for you lucy or anyone else in attendance

Money, vengence and ass…..(Lucy can fill you in. I’m moving a washer and dryer.)

What the Fuck?! So they both did it?

(WHAT?! I’d have won if I hadn’t died.

Oh well, time to hear a motive.)

To frame David seems the most likely reason for Paulo to help Tess in this little event, having long since been angry at him due to that betral….. Tess herself gaining sole ownership of the dock lease in turn. The extra murders…. just being witnesses…and investigators who got too close and to add icing on the cake once David was locked away for them all.

So Paulo and Tess worked together to kill everyone?

yep they both did, evidence make em bothe guilty it was a frameup on David as well as other motives involved

Why didn’t they just kill David in the first place?

They needed someone to blame the…(looks at destroyed house.) non-existant evidence on.

“Because… of Daisy? They needed her out of the picture for the lease scam to work out smoothly…. and thus needed someone alive to take the fall. Who better then David? And that way they keep their hands clean of it.”

Alright guys, I gotta go now. See you later, it was fun!

(Nods) I see, well then now that this is all over, what do you guys say about is nabbing the baddies and getting the hell out of Dodge?

yes, Paulo was angry at David for his past betrayal and so with Tess set up the whole thing, In the night they killed the two ambassador while no one witnessed, teh document found near Macain about extraditing foriegn criminals points to this, with both ambassadors dead there will be hell to pay on an international level and David would bescrewd over completly, this would aloow Tess to take ove the Opium trade with the docks in here possesion and Paulos influence, The first crime that was noticed was the following morning, Paulo was the one who shot Tess in order to eliminate her as a suspect, Carter was collateral damage, When Paulo came in confused after the fact shocked . everyone with me so far……

yup! Keep going…

The notice while originaly intended for to be tranfered to Daisy was forged to say it was Davids in order to make him seem more guilty a forged signature note to valuable land, it would make tess seem like someone David would want dead

So the lease was from Tess to Daisy, or David to Daisy or what?

Daisy of course had to Die because she would know of the note from her buissness with Tess that the note was itended for her but changed due to her buisness with paulo, The pipe was clearly planted to make it appear David was the killer, the button while fancy but cheap came from Paulos fancy miliatry garb thats he’s always wearing. The needle of heroin you ask, Heroin is a refined form of opium, this would lead one to assume David again or the dear docxtor as Lucy suspected at first. (Tess to Daisy, forged to Make it appear from Tess to David so as to make david a suspect)

Okay, that was my problem, this whole time I though David was already in control of the dock. Don’t ask why, my brain is silly sometimes.

Well done, this was thoroughly enjoyable. Thanks for bring good sports everyone.

The other murders were simply to make suspects of the other guests, the traps set up in an attempt at causeing some collateral damage, this was done by the wounded Tess while everyone else was occupied with the search and Paulo, Rigging the house with traps is a likely act of Aknown criminal and drug addled madman such as David, ths he becomes more of a suspect, McCain died because he came to close to the truth by finding the papers about criminal extradition, finding Daisies corspe andthe pipe leading to David was a setup from the get go,

I pray you didn’t expect us to get ALL the facts right…. But we’ve got the true killers anyway no doubt being carted off by the police!… I hope?

But what of the rest of us? Does Tackleford recover? Am I left to get a new job with Amaya at the theater? Who inherits this grand mansion now?

…
Who says I’m dead? You’re an idiot, Rugworthy. And apparently a worse doctor than Nicopolis.

*Cough*

(Nods) I get now. Okay then, time to turn in the outfits I guess. (Turns in hat, coat, dress and pants.) Well that was a surprise and interesting to say the least.

I thought you might have intended for me to be the murderer, but with my string of high jinks that would have been strange or too obvious

Can I be a Doctor now? And I say let McCain live!

…
Well, why the hell didn’t you ask earlier, woman? I was president of the medical board that threw you out. I wasn’t present, but they said you were apathetic about the post, so I turned you down.

Honestly. You want to be a doctor?

*Cough* *cough*

*immediately drops everything as she hears McCain speak her face brightening up considerably* Tackleford! *Rushing to his bedside to wrap her arms around him tightly, the man likely still laid back and having a good many bandages across the torso*

(This is where you say something completely cold and logical and not mushy in the slightest)

(Turns slowly to McCain) Are you serious? (Grabs him by the collar) Of course I want to be a doctor you twit! I-I mean sir!!

Take my damn certificate already.

I’m not taking your damn Certificate! You’re not a bad doctor and deserve to be one, even if you stole my chance to. I guess I’ll forgive you for that anyways…

Well, your abilities are a matter of public record, as are your qualifications. You’ve got the job.

Now do something about that damn wound! Before the young lady *really* thinks I’ve died.

Care to help me patch up to old boy, Mike?

*Choke* Miss.. Brynt.. Your affection is noted… But could you stop… Crushing me… Please?

Tackleford recovers and Marries Sue who was named in the Rugworthys will and gets the house as well as the remainder of my estate, Rachel gets the ambassadors post seeing as how no one else wants the job now that the old ones dead, David fades into obscurity after the events of the party, staying behind the scenes and never leaving his opium den, Lucy sells the film rights to what happened and spends the rest of her days on a tropical beach surronded by Cabana boys, Mike has his medical licence taken away after the movie comes out detailing his mental breakdown and rampant drug abuse, desperate and homeless he Catchs one of the carterowls on the property and tours the American midwest as a traveling showmen.

Tess escapes but her wound becomes infected and she is Caught by authorities in a french hospital while treated fr her wounds

Paulo’s arrest causes tension between Spain, England, Japan and france almost to the point of war untill he is mysteriouslt killed in his holding cell in london by a crossbow bolt to the neck, a not on the bolt simply saying…..

Fin and thus the end

… and I’m okay with this…. Phhhffff sorry Mike but it kinda sucks to be you.

… Not only did I get the last words of the story, but the (joint) happiest ending! Yay for McCainxSue!

So. Who’s going to draw the comic of this?

I told it would win Sue! I told you! MikexLucy…. not so much, but he was insane. It would never work out.

If anyone has artistic talent i would applaud an attempt at the charecters in there story cloths (i cant draw worth shit myself) I am glad to have given you all a bit of fun, though i think we should wait a while before the next crazy game, give the fourums time to recover…post art people haha

I have an itch to write a more coherent Fanfiction…

I’m only mildly put out that I was stabbed with a swordfish (why a swordfish?) before I could do any real denouncing. But maybe the silent approach worked.
