"Well, I was on the second floor." Andrew was the first to speak up.
"All I found was this stupid cheap Girafarig mask --"
"Oh, can I have it?" Lynkeru piped up.
"Uh...sure." Andrew flung the mask over to Lynkeru, and continued
with his explanation. "Like I said, I was on the second floor, and
couldn't find anything. I heard Nori, Andy and Eni go up to the third
floor; I was just about to go up there when --"
"HEY!" Marcia pointed at Andrew's guitar, which showed signs of
impact and had copious amounts of telltale pink goo all over the back
around the dent. Marcia lifted the guitar to give the partygoers a
better look. "You see that? We have a murder weapon!"
"NO, we don't." Andrew snatched his guitar away and gave Marcia a
dirty look. "And I'll thank you for not grabbing my stuff. The
guitar is, um, covered in Doppler because SOMEONE tripped me as I
rushed up to see what happened. And anyway, he was a Ditto, correct?
How could you kill someone with a guitar?"
"Uh..." Marcia struggled to come up with an explanation.
