So. You have three locations in mind. You decide to split it up as such.
SEATH + BENJAMIN --> LIBRARY
CLOVER + KIARA --> INVESTIGATE FOYER
YOU, MAX, CASEY --> SLIME TRAIL
REASONING
-Seath and Benjamin are the bookworms of the group. You trust them to find the most valuable books.
-Clover's probably the best fighter of the group and Kiara can easily spot anyone trying to approach. Perfect duo in case someone is following you.
-You want to see whatever slime anomaly is roaming around here and if it's what you think it is? Max and Casey should be able to calm it down.
Shame that you can't bring Kiara and Benjamin, the two anomaly lovers, to check the slime right now but they're better assigned elsewhere.
You're leaving immediately after this. You had fun here in D-Corp and exploring this abandoned manor but you got places to be, damnit. Judging by how uncomfortable Clover looks after the dump of information he was exposed to, you think he's on the same page.
You inform your allies about how you want to split up.
Benjamin and Seath both nod in agreement. They don't see any issues with this. Benjamin looks a tiny bit disappointed but, at the same time, relieved. "Tell me how it goes. After burning that moss heart..." Yeah. Can't blame Benjamin too much.
Kiara gives you a thumbs up while Clover grunts affirmatively. "Don't worry. We'll keep an eye out, don't want anyone to ambush us!" "Don't want any vermin mucking up this place. Too important for that."
Benjamin + Seath head down the east hallway out of the living room while Kiara + Clover went back the way you came. That leaves you with Max and Casey.
"Woo!" Max is equally relieved and worried about following the mysterious slime trail. "Mystery slime! That...smells like wet dog." You sniff the air and huh. She's right. Guess you didn't notice it until she pointed it out.
Casey squats down so she can examine the slime. She pulls out her weirdly wet snubnose revolver and holds the barrel of it to the slime.
You swear the gun is actually sniffing at the slime. You and Max both look at each other as if you're processing the bizarre sight unfolding. She doesn't really use her gun a lot so it's always a bit shocking to see this.
Though you can't complain too much about weird guns. You have a gun that's the physical manifestation of your hatred towards federal agents.
The revolver whimpers, squirming away from the slime.
"Hm!" Casey promptly holders the snubnosed revolver. Why is it specifically a revolver though-
[SEEKER OF THE CITY] It finally clicks. It's a model referred to as a 'British Bull Dog' snub nose revolver. Old world country that doesn't exist anymore but people still use the name.
It took your mind that long to realize the pun. Guh!
"It only reacts to that when it smells another dog! Mayhaps we shall require treats and toys! Ooo, maybe the fox-headed high class consumers who once lived here had chewtoys for personal use-"
"Aren't foxes and dogs different?" You ask.
