Many mysteries have shrouded your life ever since you were born. The moment your fat baby feet touched soil, you have wondered how and why the world around is the way it is. Questions that are forever etched in your brain. Questions that seem trivial to others. Unimportant. Pointless. Questions nobody really seeks an answer to. But not <span class="mu-i">you</span>. You’re different. The thirst for knowledge defines your being. You’re like the first raccoon that scavenged inside a trash can. A revolutionary. A hero to its species…

…Or you would be if you start getting some answers instead of being perpetually unaware of everything that surrounds you. No more <span class="mu-i">‘it’d be neat to know why, but you can’t get all the answers’</span>, and all that nonsense. This is not doing your best. That is a shame! You’re a shame! You need to change!

This was the perfect occasion to break the cycle. The occasion for you to ask those questions. For you to get those answers. For you to shape the world with this newfound knowledge. For you to do your best, intellectually speaking. And not only that, you’re trying to get more clues to learn the truth about what happened here at the orphanage! It goes beyond mere curiosity! It’s to help everyone!

Naturally, as a highbrow academic, you decided to ask why Lieutenant Vanessa van Zullekom’s butt is so big.

…

…

<span class="mu-i">Maybe you’re just dumb as a brick.</span>

“Does it compliment my thighs?” Vanessa responds after your second inquiry. She is as red as a certain vegetable… You’re trying to remember what those are called… It’s almost like you say it all the time… You got it! She’s red like a radish!

Perhaps this isn’t, uh, the best topic to get all inquisitive about…

<span class="mu-s">How do you respond?</span>

>“Are you hung up on what I said yesterday…?” You know she heard you answer Maximum Price’s question. And this is creepy.
>“You’re not answering my question.” You won’t let this devilish policewoman avoid the topic.
>“Sorry, I shouldn’t have asked.” Maybe this will make everything less awkward.
>“Yeah.” You think she’s not a conventionally shaped woman, but you like it.
>Write In.

<span class="mu-s">You can still order the kids around!</span>

>It’s time for them to deliver Vanessa’s punishment! You wonder what they came up with.
>Send them to investigate Ophelia’s office for a secret passage for no reason.
>Ask them to bring Grace, Mirjam, and Jesse here.
>Don’t make them do anything yet.
>Write In.
