A commission I made for my sister of Logico x Irratino from Murdle. This is her intexpectation of them.

Please order commissions from me, I want to buy Date Everything.

[berrypass-de-murdler]

my god he needs to stop being so beautiful

Drew Irratino before so here’s his rival friend antagonist partner this guy

[berrypass-de-murdler]

S-S1 Throw the Book at Me: An Idunit

I graduated the School of Mystery with the second highest degree!

Still not perfect though, I must not be a true murdler :<

Garnet and Graystone from the storyline I butchered once again

Anyway, here are the bonus episodes

DON'T READ THE EPISODES WITHOUT READING THE BOOKS!!

It’s time to publish The School of Mystery. Logico thinks it is his greatest work yet, while Irratino argues it’s also the least truthful. 

LOGICO: So as long as I look amazing throughout it, people will love it.

They both trundle over to the lair of Logico’s dimwitted publisher, Chairman Chalk. He’s currently in a fistfight with Dame Obsidian.

CHALK: LOGICO THANK GOD YOU’RE HERE!!!!!! OBSIDIAN: Oh? CHALK: I couldn’t take another second in Obsidian’s grasp!  OBSIDIAN: It’s cute that you’re here… because it seems a murder is at play.

Logico is irritated, because he had worked so hard on this book and just wants it to be published already. Editor Ivory walks into the room and steps on the body of the day.

IVORY: EEEWWWWW-UH! IRRATINO: You know what to do, Logico. LOGICO: Yes. And because of that, you don’t need to say anything at all.

He brings out his handy dandy notebook and draws some perfect squares. To think - he’s been doing this since he was twelve years old! It’s amazing how the time flies. He has to wonder - how many murders has he solved in all since then? From the massive conspiracies to all the little ones in between…

IRRATINO: I thought you wanted to get that published. LOGICO: DON’T RUSH ME

He decides to make things a little quicker by multitasking.

LOGICO: Say, Chalkers, you and I are friends, right? CHALK: B-But… you hate me! You say it to my face! LOGICO: What say after this murder is… ha ha… dead and done, you may publish my latest book?

Chalk sticks his nose in the pages.

CHALK: Am I in it? LOGICO: Yes.

A happy bleat. Seems like that’s a yes.

IVORY: Heyyyyy Obsidian~ 

Sid ignores her.

IVORY: I said heyyYYYY OBSIDIAN… UGH!! Why does she talk to CHALK more than ME? Does she like MEN or something?!

Obsidian has stolen the first copy of Logi’s new masterpiece and is flipping through it. She does not look pleased.

LOGICO: Um, e-excuse me!  OBSIDIAN: Yes? LOGICO: That’s… mine. OBSIDIAN: The way you wrote me is nice enough, I suppose… but most of this is bullshit, I have to say. LOGICO: I don’t CARE what you think! Give it back!!

That’s a lie. Logico cares very deeply about what Obsidian thinks and this crushed him.

IVORY: ughhhHHH now she’s talking to Logico?! What does an editor have to do to get NOTICED he-yurr?

She glances at a candle, and gets a “bright” idea.

IVORY: OH NO MY WORK, HELPPP! CHALK: [scream] WHAT HAVE YOU DONE??

Ivory’s entire desk is on fire. Obsidian looks over briefly, but continues to betray Ivory and slyly throws Logico’s book in the wastebin.

LOGICO: GIVE THAT BACK!! IRRATINO: Hey Logico? LOGICO: I don’t need your help.

All on his own, Logico deduces Obsidian as the killer. What a clever boy.

CHALK: Oh, that’s pretty good! I-I’ll publish the book. OBSIDIAN: And you’d better publish mine next. This little incident is worthy of another novel.

Logico fails to see how this is even an engaging episode, much less an entire book, but there’s no arguing with the Sid. He hands over his draft, and twirls away leaving Irratino in the dust. Everything is idyllic now!

The end! 

Maybe I shouldn't go to a murdle event after all hahehahhdjansvkdbg i'm not good enough </3

The power of Goat Lord compels you!

See you next time murdlers!

help me save myself here!

[berrypass-de-murdler]

Since you mentioned wanting people to send you asks, I might as well ask—who are your favorite Murdle characters aside from the oxymorons?

I have some obvious picks and some not so obvious picks <3 (warning, long post)

obvious picks:

Aureolin!!!!

my first ever murdle drawing? the design that ended up giving me my first contest win in my life? of course I'm partial to her Most people portray Auree as bloodthirsty and manipulative but I never saw her that way. A lot of people tend to forget that she was actually framed twice in a row by Obsidian and did not commit a single murder in Vol. 1. Plus she got the worst cell in the whole prison for something she didn't even do. She is struggling, she is abused. She never struck me as the type to kill for fun. I added a lot of detail to the moment where she commits her first murder in Vol 2, her breaking point.

Mauve!!

The third Murdler ever designed, after Aureolin and Logico. I love how she looks. Many portrayals of Mauve have her as stoic and serious, but for me that's what Celadon is for. I love Mauve as hyper and slightly unhinged. I voice act her quite a bit, and she has a very strange nasal voice that can't be replicated by any other character. But despite everything, of course, on the inside she's tortured. Indigo used her grief for her father against her to take her in and force her into fulfilling his own corrupt goals. Unlike most suspects, she has a close bond with Logico.

now for some less popular choices...

Umber!!

My sister's intention for this design was to make her creepy. She ended up the polar opposite. There is essentially nothing on Umber's personality in canon, so we virtually had a blank slate to work with. She turned into the harmless child who is full of love and wonder. Everyone loves Umbah, even Logico!!

Gainsboro!!

My sister's favorite character. She designed him as the cutest, silliest butterfly ever. "Bookie" is hated by the fandom and I don't understand why. In the cartoon, he is a complete wimp who tries and fails to mask his insecurities with anger. He's just a silly guy.

Chalk!!

Yes, I adore Gainsboro and Chalk, two of the most hated suspects in the fandom. People mostly hate Chalkers for being a homophobe, but he is very, clearly, obviously gay. Of course I completely butchered his character in the cartoon by turning him into an abused coward who is essentially a fainting goat. He is so fun to draw and write because of it though. He is helpless.

Amaranth!!

I, like most people, had no opinion on Amaranth. Then I drew him, and that changed completely. His original design was a cinnabon with Earl Grey's face and a regular-ass hammer as a weapon of choice, and my god I'm glad I scrapped that. His final version turned out so adorable that he launched into one of my favorites. I love the thought of him being a drag queen. He doesn't have much in canon anyway, so why not?

Seashell!!

He is such a dumbass. This man has no redeeming qualities. Look at his stupid face, I just want to slap him. His role in the Institute is "the guinea pig". And he's also a dentist, or something. Dumb fish.

thank you for asking, I missed talking in the community :'3 <3 I'm sorry for the horrendously long post

[berrypass-de-murdler]

AAAAAAWWWW 😭

HUGGLES PLEASSEE

Stop looking at me with those gay green eyes

[berrypass-de-murdler]

major red and sable!!

SABLEEE No one ever draws her!

the scene where red canonically eats a human is hilariously unexpected

this took me so fucking long because I was losing motivation and started procrastinating the fuck out of it oh my god

threw in the speedpaint too because why not

here's the song the drawing is based on

characters anti-clockwise:

Major Red (I'm still not happy with his design, I might redesign him again)

Ruby Rose (OC, cannibal Lady)

Aristocrat Sable (the only one I'm actually satisfied with the design)

Demon Logico (see my AU post)

Serena (cannibal OC by @siren-darkocean)

you may have noticed that they're all cannibals, or have eaten a human at some point in their lives

I had a ramble/self rant, but the draft didn't save and I'm too lazy to type it all out again, lol

oh, if you're wondering why Red's scar switched sides, that's because it was on the wrong side in the pencil drawing and corrected it digitally. it does make his face look empty though ngl-

also I just noticed, none of them have a healthy eye, except Red who only has a scar

...

I just realised I forgot Sable's scar, fml

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

anyways bye

S-50 Confrontation at the Alumni Dinner

TIL if you search up depressed in tumblr gifs this happens

no tumblr i don't think everything is okay

DON'T READ THE EPISODES WITHOUT READING THE BOOKS!!

Logico slams open the doors of Old Main for the final time.

LOGICO: I know who framed Irratino! TUSCANY: Logico, what is going on? LOGICO: That Mystery Boy did not cause the downfall of the school.  IRRATINO: I didn’t? LOGICO: Something darker is afoot.

Coach Raspberry is asleep on the floor, next to the chessboxing championship trophy. He looks peaceful, but Logico wakes him up violently.

RASPBERRY: Jesus Christ… LOGICO: Was it Raspberry, the tiger coach? He was desperate to bring our team to victory, so much so, that he’d take any measures to ensure a win.  RASPBERRY: I thought you remembered I didn’t even coach at this school!! LOGICO: Q-Quiet.

He moves over to the fantastic Dame Obsidian. 

LOGICO: Could it be Obsidian, with her new bestselling novel detailing supposedly fictional information about this school’s lore? OBSIDIAN: Everything is fake in the book, I promise. I know your precious ungulate couldn’t have done something despicable. LOGICO: Or could it have been… No… 

He stares at the worst possible perpetrator. Second-worst.

LOGICO: MOTHER? TUSCANY: Why would I want to destroy my own school? LOGICO: To stay in power, and become the chancellor!

The smilodon is about to unleash a mighty roar, but then decides it’s time to stop lying to her son.

TUSCANY: He’s no good for you, Logico. He’s dangerous. I had to get him out for your safety!  LOGICO: I will not stand for this bullshit, Mother! I will befriend whoever I’d like, without a second thought!

While Chancellor Tuscany protests, she cannot dispute the brilliant evidence our Deductive presents, and is caught.

Logico finds Irratino staring at the sunset. He sits next to him proudly.

IRRATINO: Yes, hooray, you exonerated me again.  LOGICO: Why aren’t you happy? IRRATINO: You just did it in the name of logic. For your own image. It doesn’t matter what happens as long as you’re right.

Logico suddenly grabs his hand.

LOGICO: That’s not true. This time, I did it for you - I betrayed my own mother. There is something I see in you. You’re not like the others. 

Irratino’s little tail thumps on the ground.

LOGICO: Would you like to… solve a mystery… with me?

Irratino gains a small smile. 

IRRATINO: Maybe.

…

IRRATINO: That’s what you’re gonna go with, huh? LOGICO: Oh, be quiet. It has a happy ending, people will love it. 

Irratino grins cringedly. 

IRRATINO: Do you want to know what really happened with the school? LOGICO: Wh… You know?! IRRATINO: You kind of stormed off for good after I was expelled. I did a lot of research into the college’s origins. And I think it’s a good time to tell you what I learned.

Old Rosy Garnet and Lord Graystone were more than friends.

The griffon and the unicorn were parallel to Logico and Irratino - opposite in beliefs, but in perfect harmony with each other nonetheless. They were both scientists, and they were ready to spend the rest of their lives together.

One day, however, Garnet fell ill. Graystone worked hard to create a medicine to cure him, but failed to, and the unicorn only grew worse. On his deathbed, he whispered to his companion to find him in the afterlife, as he will always be watching over him.

Graystone, bound to logic, could not fulfill this wish. He had promised long ago to hold onto his beliefs no matter what. And with that meant Garnet was gone for good.

The griffon couldn’t handle the pain he was carrying. Logic was not worth losing it all. So he decided to tap into esoteric studies. 

Of course, he could not just give up the concept of logic itself. He needed to find a balance. And that’s why he created Deduction College. A study into the morals and boundaries of logic.

With it came the Intuitive Inquisition, which he erected in Garnet’s name. But that, of course, only started rumors.

Garnet killed Graystone, yes, but only inside, and through no fault of his own. (And certainly not with a perfectly thrown dagger.) 

Soon before his own death, the founder wrote a letter explaining the truth, and buried it deep within Garnet’s resting place, the home of the Inquisition. 

It’s enough to make Logico question everything he’s ever known.

The end!

S-49 An Old Crime in New Aegis

Thank you all for sticking by me during my struggles. I love you all and you've been giving me much-needed hope.

Emerald that I drew before vacation, based on my other drawing of him but looking much worse lmao

DON'T READ THE EPISODES WITHOUT READING THE BOOKS!!

Logico drives mindlessly to Hollywood, despite his hatred of cars. He has no emotions. His new life will start soon, and he won’t have to think about any of this again. But he takes the wrong exit. And he soon becomes lost in a desert city.

He slams on the breaks, resting his head against the steering wheel. Suddenly, he finds himself getting out and walking around.

Something’s wrong, very wrong. He can feel it. But he needs to push it down. 

A human body is floating in the air, auras shooting all around. Logico rubs his eye and tries to snap himself out of the hallucination. But soon all he can see is the not-so-friendly face of Mayor Honey.

HONEY: Now did I guzzle the wrong flask, or is that Logico? LOGICO: [cough] Of course it’s me, you idiot…  HONEY: What are you doing over in my SECOND town? LOGICO: What is THAT doing??

Honey casually looks over at the suspended body.

HONEY: Oh, right! There was a murder. It sure is a good thing you’re here!  LOGICO: I do not solve murders anymore.

He’s befuddled, but tries to hide it. Surely there must be some kind of unspeakable electromagnet causing the levitation. In fact, a short man in a disturbing horse mask is pulling levers and shit right now next to a hunk of metal.

LOGICO: You’ll never fool me. HORSE MASK: Huh? No, I swear to god! This is a real UFO! It fell from the sky!

He’s not talking about the human - he’s pointing to a crashed aircraft.

LOGICO: That object is not flying anymore, nor is it unidentified. It’s clearly a weather balloon.  HORSE MASK: WHY ARE YOU SAYING THESE THINGS?! LOGICO: Stop… yelling…

He rushes into the nearest building and tries to steady himself, since he’s feeling extremely lightheaded. He holds onto a crystal ball and stares into its dark center. Unbelievably, a face appears. Actually it’s somewhat believable since it was a reflection of someone behind him - a freakish purple amalgamate.

INSECT: Can I please… have a look at that? 

Logico uncertainly hands it over. He realizes that could be taken as a polite gesture, and bonks his head to snap himself out of it. A long orange nose appears in his face.

SEAHORSE: You’re a funny little man, aren’t you? LOGICO: Not… a little man!...

His vision doubles as he looks up at the towering figure. 

SEAHORSE: I’m selling esoteric artifacts - would you like one impossible triangle?

He reveals a glowing artifact that resembles oil - forcing Logico into an incoherent flashback of when he saw that same object before, even though it didn’t really happen. He hears a million voices in his head, but no one is speaking.

LOGICO: Stop… STOP!!

He charges out and collapses onto the sand. 

HONEY: Logico, are you feeling alright?

The sky shifts to night as if ink were poured onto it. Stars emit a searing glow in the shape of the impossible triangle.

LOGICO: I can’t… I can’t… Let go!... ENOUGH!!

Logico knows what he did in that moment. But his fingers are hovering above the keys, and he can’t bring himself to write it down. He looks over at Irratino, who is fast asleep. And he stares at everything else he’s written. All complete bullshit - what started off as a recollection of his college days morphed into a terrifying written form of his mindspace. He lays his head on the desk.

Ever since Logico met Irratino, the cruel, selfish, Hollywood side of him shriveled, his memories of it faded. He was thrown into a new world of insane characters, fighting against them every day, and fighting for them when the time is right. 

And while he remembered a few people, his parents of course, Chancellor Oak, Dame Obsidian, Mayor Honey, and Chessboxer Blaze… everyone else, student and teacher alike, was forgotten. So his brain filled in the gaps, replacing them with altered versions of people he knows today. They all changed his life in their own way, good or bad.

Logico is so close to the end of this book. He’d been wanting to write his backstory for a long while. But this is hopeless. The real story had no ending, other than him getting sucked into moviemaking and becoming a jerkass. 

He stares at the sleeping goat, watching his gentle breaths. Does it matter what happened, if this is what it’s like right now? His eye softens. And he imagines a better ending, just to close off the book.

He already has the best ending he could ask for.

The end! 

Good night logico <3

The next episode will be delayed, but I will try my hardest to open up a Cartoon Murdleverse sticker club shortly, the first purchasable Cartoonverse merch.

I'm in a bad situation and I really need the money to help me get out.

If you could find it in your heart to donate beforehand you can visit my Ko-Fi where I also offer art commissions.

Everything will be used to help me get out and start my real life. My dreams are to meet G.T. Karber in person and to begin an internship in ornithology, but I can't do it without you <3

S-48 The Murderer On Trial for Murder

Another quick one because I gotta leave for home right away tomorrow

No picture sorry D':

DON'T READ THE EPISODES WITHOUT READING THE BOOKS!!

Before the unpleasant memories can end and Logico can transition to his new life, he receives something in the mail - a court summons. He needs to be at the trial of Chancellor Oak, a person he exposed four years ago. 

LOGICO: Please… let this be it.

It turns out that Oak is, of course, not being tried for murder, but tax fraud. No one cares about a little murder, especially since the judge and everyone else are probably all murderers themselves. Logico is not happy to see that greasy, bloated mess again.

OAK: I promise you… I never did nothin’ except in the name of logic… ‘cuz I tell ya… I’m all ‘bout logic. Chancellogicoak. Lemme show ya.

He turns out the lights, and claps. He turns them back on, and there’s a dead lawyer.

LOGICO: The hell? Now you’ve just killed someone! OAK: I’m gonna need t’hear some logic behind that one… LOGICO: YOU JUST DID IT IN FRONT OF US! OAK: ‘Twas dark, couldn’t see… I mean cold hard PROOF.

Logico’s blood boils. It is on. 

The police dog Logico saw before is directing traffic as police cars rush in and out at breakneck speeds. She spits out her whistle.

DOG: I remember you… you’re that little cyclops guy who HUMILIATED me at the construction site! LOGICO: I didn’t humiliate you. You murdered. DOG: AND THEN YOU HUMILIATED ME!!

Logico snorts. Soon he won’t have to deal with commoners like her anymore.

He goes to ask the judge herself for proof that Oak did it.

COW: We don’t HAVE fancy “SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS”! That’s what the ding-dang SKETCHES are for! LOGICO: WHAT?!

He continues to storm around until he hears a voice coming from a closed door.

VOICE: Hey. I can see in the dark.

Logico is hurled into another flash-forward, imagining a life where he did speak to the mystery boy after all.

Is logic worth losing it all?

VOICE: HEY.

Logico shoves his emotions deep down once more. A pair of glowing yellow eyes looks over at him.

EYES: I saw him do it, and I can testify for you. LOGICO: You… can?

The person steps out into the light.

MOON ROCK: But you’re going to have to pay me first. LOGICO: Not a cent! I’m saving money for my new life!  MOON ROCK: Then I’m not helping you.

Logico, unaware that this is exactly how he is to others, is appalled by the rudeness.

LOGICO: Fine… fine.

The stranger testifies, and Oak is caught.

OAK: Well-well you see I… I did it in the name of logic. I don’t do nothin’ that don’t have to do with logic.

Logico is trying to forget about his stuck-up logic principles, but he can’t take it.

LOGICO: How is it logical TO JUSTIFY YOURSELF BY KILLING?? OAK: I, well, you see I… I kinda did that part… 

His eyes harden.

OAK: To show you up for takin’ everything from me. You’re a bad man, Logico.

Logico tries to scream that he’s not. But it comes out as

LOGICO: I don���t care! I won’t have to see ANY of you anymore when I’m done! 

He runs away and prays - something logicians don’t usually do.

The end! 

See you tomorrow!! <3

The power of Goat Lord compels you!

See you next time murdlers!

S-47 The Chessboxing World Championship

The writing shall continue!

Drawing too, but when I get home

DON'T READ THE EPISODES WITHOUT READING THE BOOKS!!

Logico is so excited about this revelation, he decides to give himself a treat - a live chessboxing match! Even though he now has pain in his heart, the smell of sweat filling the air and the scathing roars from hangry fans bring him a sense of peace. He feels longing for his old Serpent form, but then again, it probably needed to die.

He stumbles across the contestants preparing, and unfortunately, they aren’t new faces.

BLAZE: Is that fucking Logico? GOLD: WHEYYHHLLEH… whoozadunnit. LOGICO: All right… I don’t… want to hear about it. BLAZE: Good thing you’re here.

That catches him off-guard. But then he realizes why she said that.

LOGICO: AUUGHH

(If you’re wondering, it was because a dead human is on the premises.)

Logico feels guilty about his departure from college being so sudden, and he decides it’s only fair to reconnect with the person he recognizes. She’s hitting and kicking her punching bag violently.

LOGICO: So… Blaze. How is… everything? With your career and such… this is your career, right? BLAZE: Don’t care about talking to you, little man. Just ‘cause we went to school together doesn’t mean we’re friends.

Logico almost notes that they battled multiple times, but then he realizes he still can’t give up his identity as the Serpent or he’ll be ridiculed. But that’s not what hurts. Logico had no friends throughout all of college. But that will change once he’s in Hollywood. Everyone loves a Hollywood star.

Fighting back memories, Logico approaches the coach doing push-ups.

TIGER: GIT- hhhhh… GIT- hhhhh… LOGICO: Excuse me. TIGER: AAAAUAUUUUGH!! OH!! I didn’t see ya there… lil’... fella!  LOGICO: No one in the history of the world will call me little fella, but I have more important things to ask. What do you know about the… MURDER? TIGER: Oh, that. Let’s see, whelp, all I know is that that mega-girl contestant there is like a QUEEN. And above that, she brought a weird package that I can’t fer the life of me open.

Champion Gold looks different then he did when he fought in Deduction College. He was already way older than everyone else, but now he looks ancient. Plus, he’s panting and wheezing.

LOGICO: Gold! Our dear champion. Who could forget your legendary battle against the Serpent!... I mean… how are you doing this fine murder. GOLD: [swings fists] I DON’T WANNA DEAL WITH THE LIKES’A YOU LIL’ WHIPPERSNAPPER! I GET THE GOLD!! GOLD MEDAL. GOLD IN THESE HILLS…

He nearly collapses.

TIGER: Gold, bud, I hate to say it, but you really should consider retirin’. GOLD: NONSENSE YA BUFFOON. I’M FIT AS A GOLD HILL. …wattah!...

The coach tends to the old lizard and Logico storms off to suspect #4. 

PLANT MAN: And who might you be, my miniature gentleman.

Every suspect in this episode has called Logico small, and it’s driven him off the edge.

LOGICO: OKAY, YOU LISTEN HERE! I AM NOT SMALL, OR LITTLE, OR MINIATURE! I AM A NORMAL MAN! 

The plant man looks sad! Logico feels really guilty.

LOGICO: I… I’m sorry, sir. I didn’t mean that. 

He shakes his head. This is the cost of having no friends. 

I wish I had gotten your name.

I wish I…

His heart begins to harden. He doesn’t need this dumb kid. He needs Hollywood.

LOGICO: It was that one with a chess book on the rooftop lounge. PLANT MAN: …Oh. Well, yes! I did it to impress you. LOGICO: . . . w h a t. PLANT MAN: I had to use a lot of logic to execute it perfectly!

The magnifying glass man’s head begins to throb, having that word thrown against him yet again.

LOGICO: I don’t even need real logic! I’m just going to PLAY a detective!!

He runs off.

The end! 

Remember, it's also Logico's villain origin story

The power of Goat Lord compels you!

See you next time murdlers!

[berrypass-de-murdler]

S-46 Lights! Camera! Murder!

Early episode because I'm gonna be on the road all day tomorrow

Upside Tino

DON'T READ THE EPISODES WITHOUT READING THE BOOKS!!

Logico wakes up to an unexpected email. His heart skips a beat. This must be a scam - Midnight III? From Midnight Movies! He clicks on it, trembling. It’s real!

“I hope this message finds you well.

With the recent death of Midnight I, the studio has found it difficult to get back into Action. A friend of yours informed us that you are interested in a Hollywood position.

Here’s the deal - solve a murder for us, and we’ll put you on the waiting list.

III”

Logico forgets about everything else. This is it - everything he’s ever dreamed of!

When he arrives in Hollywood, his pulse hasn’t slowed down a bit. Could it really be this easy? One murder, and he’s in the running? Of course, they could decline him still… or he could solve the murder incorrectly, and screw everything up… or…

MIDNIGHT: Good. You came.

Logico gasps. He’s so much smaller than he was expecting!

MIDNIGHT: I manage everything right now. You want to do something cool, you go through me. Now I know you like murder, so solve this one first and we’ll see if you’re useful.

Logico takes a deep breath and centers himself. He just has to believe!

Even when there’s no one to believe for.

Almost uncontrollably, his head jerks to the stars, and he stumbles backwards. In the distance, he spies a truly bizarre mirage - a constellation floating just feet above the ground. It must be a mirage, there’s no other logical explanation. But he’s never seen anything like it.

Running over, sure enough, it fades away, and he crashes right into a clam girl.

CLAM: UGH!!!! WHO THE HELL!!! WHO ARE YOU!!! LOGICO: I’m… SORRY… it was an accident. CLAM: You should know BETTER! Because I’m… 🎵IT-GIRL ABALONEEEEEEEEEEEYYYY! LOGICO: Didn’t ask… 

He forgets what he was doing yet again, because there seems to be a 4-foot long spider crawling around in the distance. It sees him, and scuttles over so fast, Logico passes out.

He wakes up to a beady-eyed muppet staring through him.

MUPPET: OH GOOD. You’re up. I thought you were dead, which would’ve been so funny, ‘cause YOU’RE the one who’s supposed to be dealing with the murder!  LOGICO: Hilarious. 

Realizing the “spider” was just the puppet’s handler in an invisibility suit, he calms down and looks for clues again. The terrifying image of a hawk looking into pure darkness down the world’s creepiest road greets him. They’re so motionless, he’s not even sure if they’re a person.

LOGICO: H-Hello? HAWK: [SCREEEEEEEEECH]

Logico has another heart attack, and doesn’t know how much more he can take. 

HAWK: Oh… sorry. Wait! NO! NOT SORRY! I’M HOLLYWOOD! GET OUTTA MY SHOT!! LOGICO: I’m behind the camera! HAWK: GETTOUUUUUUTTT!!

But, in a little while, Logico realizes what’s most important - the killer of the day was the unbearable muppet man.

MUPPET: W-W- WHAT??! Oh wait, I did do that. BUT WAIT! IT’S ONLY BECAUSE THE BOSS TOLD ME TO! I WAS A HITMAN! LOGICO: That’s still horrible.

Guard dogs chase the little guy away, and Logico turns to Midnight once more.

MIDNIGHT: Good job.  LOGICO: …Thanks…

He’s very shy.
