This is the one where I start messing up the rules of Fate (or not getting them wrong, exactly, but certainly not making best use of the tools in the toolkit), please don't @ me about it

A body in the back room. A mysterious figure fleeing the scene. What’s a newbie PI to do but give chase?

Basically in this episode and the next one I miss a couple of golden opportunities to use Fate's Create an advantage roll, one of my favourite Fate mechanics, and instead force some bastard child of an Overcome roll and a D&D-style "I guess just see how high you get" kind of thing the DM reaches for when they're not sure what mechanic applies (it me, I'm the DM)

We’re going to find the author by process of elimination.

Sorry, your boyfriend pulled a double shift down the posting mines and now he has irony poisoning. We pulled him out before he could go full devil's advocate but sadly he's basically incapable of sincerity now. We're putting in a new screentime limit now, we could name it after your boyfriend if you like

REMEMBER: oh gods, this one will be a bloodbath...
