[the next room, they have to go out into the hall for. The break room and the kitchen are connected, but from there it's back into the main hall. There's a couple doors further down.]

The labs he was trying to get to are the next two doors on the right and left. He did manage to steal something from there, but he didn't get far. He tripped the silent alarm, which brought the GCPD in fairly quickly.

[there's a slight twinge somewhere under his sternum at the mention of the precinct--but he shoves it aside] He was caught in one of the labs, pouring over their notes.

You'd think that's what he would've done. It doesn't makes sense for him to have lingered the way he did. But he did, and hence why he's been caught.

[Oswald hums a that, moving for one of the labs.] This is the one that he was caught in.

[Not immediately noticeable. Oswald motions to an open notebook]

That's what he was looking at when he was caught. It's mostly formulas, but apparently it meant something to him.

[If Edward goes and takes a look at it, after a moment, he'll realize he hears a soft tapping noise. It's almost unnoticeable, and only becomes so when the tap of Oswald's cane stops its own rhythm.]

[It's coming from a waist-high cabinet in the corner. Oswald notices Edward's lack of interest in the notebook and glances over, blinking] ...what is it?

[personal profile] agoodname 2019-07-13 10:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[just as his hand reaches for the doors, they fly open, revealing....a bunch of cleaning supplies.] Edward?

[Oswald's coming over then. The tapping still seems to be coming from inside this cabinet, though.]

[personal profile] agoodname 2019-07-13 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[at the sound of his voice, the tapping gets more frantic. It sounds like it might be coming from the very back of the cabinet, behind the cleaning supplies. Maybe even behind the cabinet itself??

Oswald has come close enough now, but clearly Edward's on to something, so he's simply watching]

[personal profile] agoodname 2019-07-13 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[once he moves the cleaning supplies out of the way, he'll find a small latch at the very bottom back of the cabinet. It seems to be rusted shut, however.

Oswald is just...peering over Edward's shoulder, trying to figure out what he's up to]

[Oswald blinks as Edward moves] What--what is it? What are you looking for? [he's going to try and peer into the cabinet to see what he's got an interest in]
agoodname: I imagine death so much it feels like a memory ([12])

[personal profile] agoodname 2019-07-13 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, then we'll need vinegar--[Oswald straightens, starting to look through the chemicals in the lab.

The frantic tapping has now turned into a full-on pounding of a fist against a wall]
agoodname: (Default)

[personal profile] agoodname 2019-07-13 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not seeing any vinegar. But...is it held in by screws? [he's digging through one of the other cabinets] Because I think I found a screwdriver and a set of heads for it.

[listen, he is not handy at all but in lieu of vinegar, this will have to do.]
agoodname: (Default)

[personal profile] agoodname 2019-07-13 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[with some elbow grease, he will eventually manage to get those screws out. He doesn't open the latch so much as take the entire thing off. And once he does, the door will jerk open, flipping up the entire back of the cabinet to reveal an opening just big enough to venture into if one crawls. Oswald jumps a bit in surprise at the sudden movement.]

What the--

[Edward could go crawling in there if he wants to...but considering the smell of rotting that's coming from inside, he might want to hold off. Oswald himself is grabbing for his handkerchief to press it to his nose]
agoodname: (Default)

[personal profile] agoodname 2019-07-13 11:57 pm (UTC)(link)
I'd say not. [muffled, behind the handkerchief. And no, there isn't anything immediately visible. But then, it's a good thing Edward already has the flashlight on his phone on, because the lights sputter and flicker out.

Oswald can't help but suck in a breath, going a bit rigid.]


What on Earth--

[it also might be getting a bit colder in there.]

[personal profile] agoodname 2019-07-14 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
[.....] Is it? Because this feels rather u-unusual. [his breath stutters in his throat as a shiver goes through him as the temperature dramatically drops--before he jumps, hand reaching out and instinctively latching onto Edward's as a beaker shatters]
