Rang's emotions are... not blank, but there is a very visible pressure on them, like he's exerting force of will to not have any of them escape. even though every so often a blip curls out, annoyance, anger, and a weariness that doesn't reflect on his face. he raises his eyebrows and takes a seat next to fei du,]
[ man that's a mood. fei du's emotional void 🤝 rang's pressure emotions
so much disassociation today!!! he lets rang take the seat, even nudging it out a bit, and shows him his notes - there's not much on it yet, just 'cathedral' and a list of the things they found, and potential places to search for more. ]
... We found him, for starters. [ his voice is still a little hoarse, quiet. ] But not much else. I'm trying to put together a concrete list of locations, so if you've heard anything or seen anything, I'd love to hear it.
[there's a beat where Rang hears the apology, and a blip of something -- like a grim amusement, if he had the energy to even be amused, leaks out. then he lifts a hand and gives it a light wave,]
I was at the salon with Fukuzawa and Gyuhyuk. We found nothing, but there was a bottle missing from the nail polish there.
[ but he will pick up his pen and add salon to his list in his neat handwriting, tapping his pen thoughtfully against the paper. ] That's odd. Someone doing a makeover in the middle of a murder?
I'll take your word for it, since you're the expert.
[in solving crime, not murdering. though rang thinks it's funny if it applied to both. he thinks it'd be funny, but he can't muster the emotion to actually feel amused,]
Jonas said he thinks it was a team decision. What do you think?

I'm sorry, Rang.

A bottle of nail polish?

We might have missed something important, but it'd be interesting if that's all it was.
Though honestly, Buzen wouldn't have sat down with anyone trying to kill him -- even if they'd been a human or a child.

[ fei du's brow furrows. his emotions are still just the same, too - mostly void, mixed with something more thoughtful as he writes it down. ]
Maybe something used to make a mark? That would've been clever.

hmmmm.... fei du glances up at him from his notes. ]
Do you mean an entire team choosing to murder together, or the attempt to take out one team?
