[Wajus]

He's not dead, he's just... resting. - a noir-forum adaptation of Broken Sword by Wajus

huge edit:

Adventure Gamers gathering. Everyone’s leaning over Ragnar’s body:

Jake: Stop that, m'sieur! Stop holding your breath at once!

Trep: Has it occurred to you that he may be dead, Jake...?

AGA: Oui, m'sieur, but maybe he prefers to look on the bright side...

Kode: I recall a case where the game developer escaped by feigning death! However, in this case the man is quite dead.Clearly the killer knew of his presence and...

FGM: How many times have I warned you about premature extrapolation?

Kode: All we know is that he is dead. It seemed reasonable to assume...

Kingz: A great adventure gamer assumes nothing. Take Stinger for instance...

Ragnar: B... but he was a fictitious character, monsieur!

Remixor: Why, he was no more real than... than Marek or Tabacco!

Maxwell Horse: That's different, Remi - they were ag.com staff. Anyway, it is unlikely that even Jake will learn much from talking to the dead.

Trep: I’ll question the male witness!

Wajus: I’ll question the girl witness...

Trep: So... ekhm... Your name, please?

Male witness: George Stobbart. I'm from California. I'm touring Japan.

Trep: Mmmm... The city is most beautiful at this time of year, non?

George: Uh... yeah, I guess so - apart from the bomb blasts!

Trep: Were you in the vicinity of the sushi bar at the time of the explosion?

George: Uh... yeah.

RaMa: Did you see Ragnar enter the sushi bar?

George: Yes I did.

Trep: Did you see anyone else in the café?

George: Yeah, there was a guy dressed as a clown. He was wearing a red shiny smoking jacket.

Ragnar: A red shiny smoking jacket?! Wajus?

Wajus: Yeah, the girl confirms the guys statement. She says the killer was disguised as a clown.

Ragnar: RaMa, Handcuff Kingz! And take his statement...

Kingz: Tim is God! I’ll kill false game developing gods for thee! I’ll kill’em all!

RaMa: I doubt if he is in a fit state for questioning, m'sieur. It smells to me as if he has been drinking!

Trep: Leave him to me, sir - I am used to handling drunken men.

Guybrush_guy:I'm seyling diz fine remaxor in leather posters.
