[dramatispersonae]

You find yourself in a beautiful red room, the edges of each wall adorned with real gold accents. At the center of the room is a long table, several chairs on either side of it, perfect for very serious conferences. In the middle of the table is a plate of strawberry jam tarts atop it, one per teammate present.

In the corner of the room is a hole in the ground, only large enough for a small animal to fit through. Next to it is a flat iron bar, curled at its tip, where a golden bell has been hung from it.

Finally, on one wall is a large poster which reads (or you find read aloud to you, if you cannot read):

An apple a day keeps the Doctor away.
Apple in the morning -- Doctor's warning.
Roast apple at night -- starves the Doctor outright.
Eat an apple going to bed -- knock the Doctor on the head
Three each day, seven days a week -- ruddy apple, ruddy cheek

[rings bell!]

Pray pardon-- could you ask the her Highness if there are any more details to this case? Some of the circumstances seem rather vague, which makes it terribly difficult to judge what actually transpired and therefore what verdict to assign.

[there is a few moments of nothing, then a little red rabbit, regally dressed, scurries out of the hole and holds out a piece of paper to you. in stubby little handwriting, it reads:

There certainly are.

the rabbit looks at you expectantly.]

[closes his eyes for a moment, breathing out slowly, then smiles at the rabbit, impeccably polite]

It would be of immense aid if we could please have those details made known to us.

Re: inquiries

[dramatispersonae]

[the little rabbit darts off and returns, same as before. he returns with another paper:

Details, details, details! We take specific questions, dearest knight, We do not interpret statements.

the rabbit looks at you expectantly.]

Could you tell us what the Patient was sick with, please?

Re: inquiries

[dramatispersonae]

[the little rabbit darts off and returns, same as before. he returns with another paper:

He was not sick, exactly; he had only come for a check-up.

the rabbit looks at you expectantly.]

Re: inquiries

[headcannon]

What reason did the Patient give for the sudden escalation of his behavior, then?

Re: inquiries

[dramatispersonae]

[the little rabbit darts off and returns, same as before. he returns with another paper:

Love.

the rabbit looks at you expectantly.]

Re: inquiries

[headcannon]

Love for whom?

Re: inquiries

[dramatispersonae]

[the little rabbit darts off and returns, same as before. he returns with another paper:

Why, for the doctor, of course! No one else would be so relevant to this case.

the rabbit looks at you expectantly.]
