fifth loop

SUPERBIA

On midnight of the seventh day, it happens again. Time rewinds itself back to the Executors' starting point, putting them right back at the beginning of the loop. This is now their fifth time experiencing the events of the Superbia loop. Some of the school's long hidden secrets are starting to come to light... but is it enough to bring them close to breaking the loop once and for all? Only time will tell. ... Hey, wait just a second...! Use this log to investigate during this seven day period and drop a comment down to the Investigation Request subheader if you'd like to explore. If you're continuing or building off of a previous loop's investigation results, please link to it in your comment. If you need a refresher on the loop mechanics, check out this post. Good luck, Executors.

Once he's done sulking Ruin is going to head back to the library to start poking at things... Chiron looked at the yearbooks but only this year's.

So what about last year's book? Can he find Miss President's junior picture? A feature page on the student council (maybe she was treasurer or VP last year?) More importantly can he find Miss President's friend from the photo that should be President?

Bingo. Let's take it one finding at a time.

Last year's book is relatively easy to find and once examined, there's a feature photo of the full student council not far into the book. There's a whole rabble of people, but the three girls from the photo can be found there. Miss President, who seems to be acting as the VP and the mysterious former Student Council President. Everyone is smiling and laughing – they seem to be a close group of friends.

Okay. So they are in the book. That's a start. There wouldn't happen to be any names listed for these girls are there?

[cancrymods]

There are not! However, that doesn't seem to be anything sinister - students having scrambled and unreadable names or just outright lacking names altogether is not uncommon in Superbia and just seems to be a side effect of the usual Specter lack of memories.

But...

With enough patience and nosing around the book, Ruin will eventually find a candid photo of the former president that was taken with some members of the art club. She's sheepishly holding up a rather wonky portrait she attempted to do of one of her fellow students, and there's bright smiles all around.

She's signed the portrait, despite her embarrassment. And while it's not possible to read the full name on such a small image...

Doesn't it look like it starts with an R?

[heir_to_ruin]

Starts with an R... doesn't really narrow things down but it's something. Maybe something he can try to cross reference with the computer system. Is the current Miss President in that photo as well?

Also if he takes the book to a copy machine and runs a few pages at 110%-150% is the image quality good enough to get anything else out of it?

Actually, do they have a club/class for yearbook? Maybe he can find the originals~
