And as of yesterday, a NOVICE in the world of occult mysteries! Looks like you've woken up pretty early today. Must be all that excitement from the super sick DEMON SUMMONING you did yesterday in your school's basement. Man, that was so cool you could barely sleep at all. But now today is a new day full of new MYSTERIOUS possibility! So then...

>Call Friend that is a girl and ask her if she's ready to make a form for our future newest member, and does she have any idea on the card designs.
After a quick morning shower, getting dressed, and treating yourself to a bowl of Boo Berry cereal, you decide to call up LORELEI LOVECRAFT, your second in command and the only other member of the Mystery Investigation Team. It rings a few times before you finally hear a groggy voice groan from the other end of the call
Lorelei: "Mmmmhhhh... Ace? It's early, what do you waaant..."

>>4283734

>>I'm up early for MYSTERY SOLVING!
Ace: "How can you possibly be sleeping? I'm up early for MYSTERY SOLVING!"
The pride in your voice could be heard by the deaf!
Lorelei: "Heh, glad to hear you're pumped about something. I was super exhausted after that uh, thing we did. I can still barely believe it worked."

Ace: "Nothing TOO paranormal happened when you went home, right? If so, one: are you alright, and B: You'd better tell me all about it!"
Lorelei: "Nah, nah, nothing paranormal other than a creepy tree branch tapping against my window. It was like, straight out of a horror movie. So cool."
Ace: "Oh yeah! You still have the poster, right? Did you come up with any form and card ideas for our soon-to-be new member?"
There's a sound of a hand smacking against a forehead that comes through the phone
Lorelei: "Dang it, I totally crashed before I could! Uhhh, Hold on."
You can hear her shuffle about with a groan before she answers again
Lorelei: "I, uhhh... I have some blank character sheets that could probably work for an application sheet. We're going to have to go to an office store to make cards though. That uh... we should probably wait on that though. I don't even know where to start with designing those. You're not a secret graphic design master, are you?"

Ace: "I am NOW! I'm gonna make those debate club cards look like jokes!"
Lorelei: "Nice. I'll grab a couple different sheets so we have some options. See you at school, Ace."

After you hang up, you quickly look around the apartment, but find no printer. You're not sure if you've ever owned one in the first place, but it never hurts to check. You don't to find your sister either, even after looking in her room. You do find a text on your phone from her though. She must've sent it late last night.
Big Sis: "hey gonna be working late so I think I'll end up sleeping here at the office. Sorry, promise I'll be home for dinner tomorrow night. Or today tonight haha. Make sure you get to school ok, ok? Love you."
Oh. Well, today tonight then! Anyways, you won't let a lack of equipment stop you from making an outline at the very least! You bust some paper out from your notebook and flex your expert artist muscles to make some membership card ideas!

You mock up some ideas on the paper, even bust out some of those index cards you never use to test them out. Seeing as how you have some time left after you're done, you decide to write up a quick Entity-Summoner Contract form too! You take a step back and marvel at your work.
Damn you're good.

With all that taken care of, the time tells you that you should probably head to school sometime soon-ish. Not too soon though. Don't want a repeat of yesterday.

You call up a much more awake Lorelei and ask her to meet up at the station
Lorelei: "Sounds good. I've got everything I need all ready, grimoire included this time. We can go over the details more at the station. See you there."
Just as you take the phone away from your ear, Lorelei's voice drags your attention back to the call
Lorelei: "Oh right! How's the plant doing? Are you remembering to feed it? Or put it by the window, I guess? Is it alright is what I'm getting at."
Ah yes, your super cool VENUS FLYTRAP! Lorelei got it when the two of you first formed the Mystery Investigation Team, but her parents wouldn't let her keep it. Therefore, the burden of responsibility fell on you, the leader! It looks pretty healthy and green from where you're standing.

Lorelei: "Hmm, yeah, that does sound like a good idea. I'm no good with that stuff though. We should practice one at the hideout."

also, I think Jubilee would be a good name because
1. It is Hebrew, giving it a religious feel
2. It means "ram's horn", not unlike one a demon would have (also because she's horny)
3. It is unsuspicious to use in public.

Once again, the arduous challenge of learning is the boulder to your Sisyphus. Once you think you have it, you lose it all over again. Though, by the end of the day's classes, you sort of feel like you did better than yesterday. You figure that the improvement was marginal at best.
Looking around as most of the students filter out of the doors, they all sort of blend together to you. Distinguishing one that stands out from the crowd is pretty difficult.

Soon enough, you're left with your second in command by your side, ready for an afternoon of investigation!
Lorelei: "So, first up we're going to grab Jubilee, right?"

You and your partner walk up to the Scruffy Dork who somehow snatched the protagonist seat at the back of the class.
Ace: "Hey, you! Want in on something interestiiing?"
S. Dork: "Huh? Uh... no, not really. Look, I really don't have time to talk to you weirdos. Theatre auditions are Friday and I've got to get this stuff memorized. Can you, like, go away maybe?"

Getting to the plan, you and Lorelei sneak down to the hideout where your summoning circle awaits. You move the boxes out of the way, perform the same rites as last time plus placing the poster in the center, and your underworldly acquaintance makes her appearance!
Lorelei?: "Hm~? You've summoned- Oh, it's just you two."

Ace: "We HAVE come to make a contract, BUT-"
Lorelei?: "No, nonono, I already told you how this works. I've given you free information already. Want any more, then we have to form a pact."
Lorelei: "Hey, you're the one who wants a contract here! We don't have to make one with you!"
The demoness drags a hand down her face with a long, drawn-out groan
Lorelei?: "Ffffffine... One more tidbit for free. I expect to be compensated for it in some way. For starters, what we're forming is a PACT, not a CONTRACT. Two very different things. A PACT binds the two parties to each other based on a mutually beneficial agreement. Power for power, knowledge for knowledge, usually something of equal value for both sides. Pacts are much longer term than contracts, most lasting as long as the mortal party does. It gives incentive for the infernal to see they remain in working condition. A CONTRACT binds to parties to the AGREEMENT itself. Both sides agree on the terms, and once the terms are fulfilled, the contract ceases to be. If either side fails to uphold their end of the bargain, punishment will be swiftly delivered and assets will be seized. Much more dangerous for mortals with too much hubris, thinking they can weasel the system. Little do they realize, we invented weaseling the system. We know how to catch every loophole in the fine print."

She giggles at your question, covering her mouth to try and muffle it
Lorelei?: "Was that a real question?"
Ace: "Of course it was!"
Lorelei?: "Oh my. No, no you won't have any 'hellions' coming after you. You aren't nearly important enough for even an imp to care about that soul of yours. Not that I mean to put you down, but think of it like this. Say there were two steaks in front of you. One is enormous, juicy, red, master crafted by the finest chef in all the realm, and next to it are an array of small, dry, burnt, perhaps the meat is spoiled on some of them.

The succubus lets out a sigh of frustration through her nose and rubs her temples
Lorelei?: "The point is, if demons are after a soul, they'll go for a good one. There's more prestige in devouring the soul of someone important, full of sin, than in snacking on some nobody. Besides, it's not like any of the dangerous higher demons will be after souls anyways. When you can take any mortal soul whenever you please, you're free to pursue... other desires."

Lorelei?: "...Weeell, if you're offering, I certainly won't say no.
Ace: "And, uh, to be honest, earlier it wasn't a 'will I be safe working with a demon' kind of question. It was more of a 'Are we gonna be in danger because some one big down there specifically doesn't want me to give you the power that I'm about to give you' sort of deal.

She hands the summon contract back over the salt line to you
Lorelei?: "And you will have a (soon to be) powerful ally. You see? Mutually beneficial agreement. The words just sweeten the tongue like honey, don't they~?"
You and Lorelei, the real one, sign the paper and jot down the demoness' new name!
Ace: "Your name... is JUBILEE!"
Jubilee: "Hm, that isn't as bad as I thought it'd be. I accept this name. Consider our pact..."
You hold it up with a flourish, presenting Jubilee with the finished paperwork! The fires of the candles swell as they've done before, swirling around the circle until the light is too much to bear and you're forced to either look away or close your eyes.

High off the rush of DEMON SUMMONING and PACT SEALING, you bend down and go to snort all that fuckin salt.
Lorelei: "Nonononono, stop! Stop that!"
Your teammate rushes to your side and yanks your head up by the collar just as the first few stinging granules enter your naive nostrils. She swipes a hole in the barrier of salt with her foot, letting Jubilee step out of the circle with a sigh of relief!
Jubilee: "Finally! Ugh, you have no idea how claustrophobic it gets in those. At least this one was fairly spacious. Oh, was it always so dark in here?"
With a snap, the ends of her hair are set alight with small blue flames, illuminating the area around them.

You have acquired:
[Pact with JUBILEE, UPSTART DEMONESS]
[Smack to the Back of the Head x1]

[Mystery of the School Summoning Circle: SOLVED]

Jubilee: "Maybe because you yourselves are strange an unusual, fufufu~ Normal people have a habit of ignoring or otherwise rationalizing the otherworldly. Though, if you really want to force them to see me... all it would take is one of your hands in marriage~"
Lorelei: "Wha- no! I-I'm not ready for that kind of commitment! Especially not with a demon!"

It takes some asking around, but eventually you narrow the oldest down to one of the fine arts teachers, a certain Mr. Botten. After drafting up a quick IOU for whatever his favorite type of apple may be, you, Lorelei, and Jubilee head for the classroom!

You open the door to find a figure rummaging around behind the teacher's desk

You point to the deranged dinosaur man with a finger that trembles. TREMBLES WITH POWER
Ace: "T-Take off that mask! Show yourself!"
Dino Botten: "Oh! Right, right, of course!"
The abomination then decapitates itself with its own two clawed hands, revealing a human head in place of a brain. Horrifying
Botten: "My apologies, I was trying on a costume for my granddaughter's eighteenth birthday! She loves those dinosaurs, you know? At least she did the last time I checked."

Ace: "Yeeaaahhh... anyways, do you know where the school emblem came from?"
Lorelei: "Yeah, we kind of figured since, you know, you're the oldest teacher here..."
Mr. Botten strokes his mustache while humming in thought
Botten: "Now I haven't been here since the very beginning, that would make me... Let's see, 1922 to... well, pretty darn old! I've only been teaching here for about, hmm, my God has it really been nearly forty years? That first principal was very long-lived though, I worked under him for the later years of his tenure you know. Seemed like he never aged a day while I taught here! Ah, what I wouldn't do for that..."

Botten: "Demons? Hohoh, that's fun! Going to summon up a, hm, what was it, a succubutt? Eh, eh?"
The teacher laughs, winking and nudging you with his elbow. Lorelei and Jubilee both share conflicting expressions, the latter clearly amused while the former is the just opposite.
Ace: "Maaaybe, do you think you can tell us more about that?"
Botten: "About the emblem and devil stuff? Well, I always thought it looked like a Satan worshiper thingy. You know, I had my rebellious phase when I was young too!"
He whispers to you, nodding his head towards Lorelei with a smirk of his mustache

Ace: "What! No way, I'm doing it for the mystery! That's my one true love!"
Lorelei: "Hm? What's going on with you two?"
The mummy without wrappings pats you on the shoulder with a clawed mitt
Botten: "Of course, of course. You two must be that Mystery Research Team then! Love those flyers you have around, very charming!"
Ace: "Thanks! So, what do you know about the first principal of the school?"
Mr. Botten strokes his mustache and takes a seat on his desk as he thinks back to the past

Botten: "The first principal, eh? Well, now this was some time ago, but here's what I remember. Jay Carraway was a man I never could really pin down. Liked to keep to himself when he wasn't dealing with school related issues. Always the first one here, always the last to leave. Heck, far as I know he lived here, hohoh! He had a... a presence about him. Man of few words, but you damn well listened to those words, if you'll pardon my language. A real man of mystery, that one. Not sure if he had a wife, but I think he had a kid at some point. Hmm... Ah well, the details are fuzzy. I worked under him until one day he just,"
He waves his hands in an empty popping gesture
Botten: "Poof! Disappeared without a trace! Pretty mysterious, eh?"

>What do you do?

>>4296902

inb4 we are the kid.
Ask about the kid, yeah.

>>4296943
How would we not know about out dad being the old principal of the school?

>>4296943
No way. That timeline doesn't match up. We'd be his grandchild...[spoilers]or Lorelei[/spoilers]

>>4296902
>ask about the kid
We should ask jubilee about Half-demon babies later.

Ace: "Jay Carraway? Really? Aw, I expected something like Lucius Fear or Mister Morningstar."
Botten: "Hohohoh! Oh no, Mr. Fear and Mr. Loathing were out on a trip to Las Vegas!"
He pauses for laughter, but only Jubilee manages a snicker
Botten: "... Ah, you must not have seen that one. Oh well!"
Jubilee: "Hell's teeth, that was lame. I love it."

Lorelei: "Uh, anyways, you mentioned his family?"
Ace: "Oh yeah! You said he had a kid?"
Botten: "I think he did. He never brought them to work or anything like that, but I swear I saw him with his little one a few times. That's all I can really say about his family."

Ace: "Mr. Botten, do you know if there's any other place where we can learn about the school's history?"
Botten: "Hmm... Place? None that I can think of. Hm, though I'm sure there's a collection of the school's yearbooks in the library! I doubt you'll be interested in how the volleyball team did each year, but you never know what you might find! Other than that, I'm afraid you're on your own."

Botten: "Oh, but please be careful, okay? Students getting hurt is never a good thing!"

>oh ask mr. botten about the dungeon as well
Botten: "The dungeon? Ahhh, I remember that! Quite a mysterious place, I can see why you'd be interested in it!"
"Some years back, something that happened down there got the janitors in a stir! Must have been a real pain for administration, because not long after everyone that reported it flat out quit and new ones had to be hired. The principal at the time, not Mr. Carraway by the by, had a little investigation done on the place, but all that was found was a little hideaway for the lazy clowns to skimp on work! So he had it locked up and everything that mattered in there moved off to the storage building. I couldn't tell you what happened to make them do that though, it's as much a mystery to you as it is to me."

>Library trip
You and Lorelei say your goodbyes and thank yous to Mr. Botten before heading off to the library!
Shelves and shelves of rows and rows of books and books clutter the silent library. A wealth of knowledge presents itself to you, ready and waiting for you to crack open the first cover!
Lorelei: "He said there should be yearbooks somewhere around here, right? We could probably find a picture of Mr. Carraway in there some where."
Jubilee: "And if his spawn went to this school, their identity as well."
You scan the shelves, picking up a stack of books to check out, and once you've got your selections you head over to check them out! The student library assistant raises an eyebrow at your picks
Assistant: "...You know you can only check out two books at a time, right?"
She taps a sign on the counter that states the checkout rules.
