Tantei Gakuen Q Drabbles 81-85
Title: Celebration
Prompt: 60 Drink
Note: Legal drinking age in Japan is 20.
There was a small puddle of drool forming on the table where Kyuu rested his head. Kinta sung a drunken song along with, surprisingly, Ryuu.
“S'not right,” Kinta said, poking Kyuu, “We need you, too. The song needs three people. Three!”
Kyuu stared at him groggily but joined in a minute later after he got the music (if not the lyrics) down. He dropped back off to sleep a few minutes later but Kinta and Ryuu didn't notice.
Instead, they had moved onto trying to play a video game but kept failing spectacularly. Eventually, they fell asleep, too.

Title: Dawn
Prompt: 31 Sunrise
Kyuu blinked wearily at the light that streamed in through a crack in the curtains. After checking to make sure there were no clues, he opened the curtains to let in the sun. His weary mind took a moment to comprehend that the curtains were not opening. He double checked to make sure he was opening it correctly.
An idea formed in his mind. He walked to the next window and opened it's curtains with no difficulty.
'I know how he committed the murder!' he thought as he looked back over the window with the curtains that would not open.

Title: Infectious
Prompt: 78 Disease
Megu gulped down bile as she took in the crime scene through the biohazard suit she wore. There were diseased corpses in the beds. From the looks on their faces, their deaths had been full of pain and agony.
She had responded to the call put out to the agency to see if someone could locate the source of the infection. The professionals had been unable to locate the source and they needed to know quickly.
Putting the bodies from her mind, Megu noticed the room was clean. Too clean. She quickly went to another room and noticed the same.

Title: Actors
Prompt: 11 Red
Dan almost shook his head at the scene before him. Classes Q and A were all decked out to look like murder victims, each person representing a different type of death.
Most seemed to have fun with the idea but more than one student seemed a little disconcerted. 'With good reason,' he thought. 'They have all seen some sort of death by now.' He felt a twinge of guilt at exposing such young people to a brutal part of the world but acknowledged that they had chosen it.
They took directions from the other teachers and quickly got into position.

Title: Game
Prompt: 42 Triangle
Kazuma toyed with the three sided die as the boy next to him went through his turn. 'I wouldn't have done that,' he thought as the Dungeon Master proceeded to bring out another creature. 'He likes to bring out more creatures if you jump in without backup.'
The other players shook their heads at his move but decided to let him play the part of game fodder. Someone always was.
Kazuma's phone rang. The call came from DDS. He excused himself from the game and headed to the school. He didn't want Kinta to know he played Dungeons and Dragons.
