“Maybe the culprit behind stealing the chocolate has a crush on Peppa?”
…
After a long pause, Inquiring pipes up, “Dottie? Let’s say that’s true or not. In either case, how would that factor into what happened on White Day?”
“...hrm.”
Scolding shrugs, which sorta throws off the balance of their totem a smidge. “Eh, Dottie did figure out something to link the dates together. By like, a hair. But it is something.”
Inquiring scuffs her shoe against pavement as she mulls it over. “How is it helpful though?”
Doting thinks for a bit. “...hm, hm!” She raises a finger, which jostles the crank on the mechanism for their arms. “It is something else to talk about!”
Inquiring compensates with some quick steps to the side, and asks, “Why would we talk about something else?”
Scolding ceases gripping onto Doting’s head like a lifeline, and replies, “C’mon, Inky, you saw how glum Peppa was, talking about Gohan. Any more of that, and she’d snap!”
Inquiring grumbles, “But we do need to hear more. Lots more, and we’re only halfway through it.”
Doting hums. “I would say we’ve only gotten through half of Peppa’s first meetings with Gohan’s girlfriends, and that’s like, what? Four afternoons out of a whole month?”
Scolding winces, and Inquiring huffs.
“I still think we should press on with the circumstances surrounding Gohan,” Inquiring motions.
“Peppa’s in a bad headspace right now, we need to tread carefully!” Doting objects.
“Gohan’s in a coma!” Inquiring stomps her foot. “We need answers, and wasting our time talking about unrelated… crap! It means that whoever did it goes free and unpunished another, stinking, instant!”
Doting trembles, and shouts, “Our kids need help right now! Vengeance on randos can wait!”
You, the Scolding aspect, meant to strike at immorality and be hard when needed, flail around as the other two argue with each other, and you start to feel a bit redundant. But, as the current head, it’s up to you to decide on which route to take.
>A. Go on a trip down Filler Lane, this business about Valentine’s is unrelated but it should have less bumps in the road.
>B. Go hard, go ham, go hear about Gohan. Doting will have to pull double duty, but it should be worth it. Peppa wants her brother’s torturer to be punished after all.
>C. You have gleaned new info about Izzy, what with these odd reactions to her name. Ask Peppa if she saw anything else like that.
>D. Something else? Write-in
>E. Update Notes
