"Ah...thanks, Lynde," Fritz said, clearly surprised by the comment but trying not to show it. "I have seen it a few times. It's always valuable for creators to study the greats, you know! But yes, our family's been doing well. What about you? Been working on any interesting projects lately."
He spoke incredibly loudly to ensure he could be heard over "Material Girl."

"Oh, the show?" Fritz replied, a nervous look covering his face. "Well, the finale of the latest season aired a few weeks ago, and everyone's talking about it. Perhaps we could talk more about that later."
"How have you been, Heinrich?" Fritz asked, his smile returning. "I must say, you look as sprightly as ever."

"Oh, a book that's not a mystery?" Meta asks, listening to Ingrid and Agnes. "It must be quite special then."
"Anyway, maybe we could move out of the hall? I was hoping to have some coffee to keep me awake," Meta says, with a timid smile. "I also don't want to add any stress to anyone by going anywhere before it's ready. Huhuhu..."

She seemed pretty happy at Ingrid's present. Always good for Agnes to have something to distract herself with, she told herself.
At Meta's suggestion, she turned around and nodded curtly. "Yes, yes, you're quite right, Meta. Hmm..." Realising that this would be a good time for a distraction considering she had basically nothing planned for the reunion, she suddenly had an idea. "Ah, uh... how about we all come inside the house? Please don't worry about the luggage", she told everyone whose suitcases were still in their possession. "Julia will take care of all that. For now, how about, er... I give all of you a nice house tour? It's been a while since you were all here, so..."

The servant looked over to Mia and spoke with a hint of particular haste, "Welcome, welcome, would you like help with your suitcases?"

"Oh, you have no idea how much Gideon would laugh hearing that about one of his mysteries." Ingrid spoke up, closing and handing her suitcase to Juna. "Don't you know it's admitting defeat to ask for the last pages without giving your final answer?"

"Ah, but of course." she sighed. "I almost forgot. You're hardly family at all, so of course you wouldn't know Gideon well enough to trust him like that."

"I wonder about that," Verrier replied neutrally, tapping his fan against one of his cheeks. "Still! I suppose that's neither here nor there. I wouldn't want to sour this family reunion. I am, as you say, only an outsider after all."
"Of course, of course. There's no point arguing about the headship anyways, with Gideon's mystery acting as arbiter." Ingrid agreed. "The reunion hasn't even properly started yet."

The last stop of the house tour was Gideon’s tomb. The family were magnetically drawn to it like, trying to find the secret behind it. And yet every time they visited, they were reminded of their silly, evil relative.
Inwardly, they couldn’t help but laugh. This “competition” had been a great thing for many of the family members who had given up on being head, and even for the others who had a legitimate chance of a fortune for being allowed near this treasure. No matter their opinion, Gideon had made everybody care deeply about a closed room so it was his victory.
The family had agreed to keep the tomb a secret, but it leaked to the public regardless. People constantly wanted to visit the island and see the tomb, but Edna had to keep them away. The rumor was spreading like wildfire and it was only a matter of time before somebody broke into the tomb and ended all speculation.
“Take as long as you all need.” Juna told the family. “But when you are done, we can start serving dinner.”

Nothing came of that, obviously. Ultimately she just stood there with her hands on the door and a somber expression.

“Oh and Miss Pfeiffer?” Juna interrupted. “You have a phone call.”
“Is it my office?”
“He wouldn’t say.”
Mia seemed surprised, but told everyone to not wait for her as they got started.

Everybody sat down for dinner. Mia wasn’t here as expected, but it seemed Agnes was also running late. The first course (a wonderful soup) had already been served.
Everybody was enjoying some light conversation, and even those at the end of the table could hear those on the other end.
(Mia and Agnes will enter at any point when their players decide)

"So, Karl will be 18 in three months. Can you believe it? He's almost a young adult, that is! Daniel will be 16 a few months after that. Though, they haven't bicker as much as they used to... I don't know why, but I suppose that they must be getting mature as they get older." The auto mechanic said before he takes a spoonful of soup.
"And if anyone's wondering about how's my business is going... It's doing really great, I even got to expand my business by opening a new mechanic shop." As Harley talked about his business, the mechanic seems to be idly tapping his left hand's fingers on the table.

"Ah, this soup is...quite rich," he said, "My compliments to the chef. I'm sure the rest of the courses will be even better."
Fritz glanced up at his brother sitting across from him.
"That's good to hear, Harley. Establishing your mechanical empire, huh?" he said with a chuckle. "It seems like most of our fortunes have been going up lately..."
"What about you, Ingrid? How's your business? Or have you just been reading lately?" Fritz asked, turning to his sister.

"... Business is fine." Ingrid answered. This is what's known as lying. In truth, before Gideon's death, Ingrid had taken a rather large loan from him for a business venture that hasn't paid off yet, and though no one at the table knew about it, if someone were to become family head they would be able to collect it.
In short, Ingrid MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE. REALLY NEEDED. A LOT OF MONEY. RIGHT NOW.
"And speaking of business, what about you, Friedrich? Are you still doing that show?" she continued.

Juna, with her hat still on, was standing near the doorway, holding a tray close to her chest. Her eye twitched at Fritz for a moment.
"I'm very glad you enjoyed it," She said, forcing an uncanny smile, "Perhaps you'd like another serving?"
Her mind was briefly taken elsewhere by the mention of a business, specifically to a somewhat distant past. If only she had enough money to guarantee a place for the rest of her family...

This is what's known as stretching the truth. While plenty of critics had been discussing the finale, almost all of them did so negatively. The finale had managed to jump the shark three times in a horribly embarrassing fashion, so viewers had been evacuating the show in droves. There'd even been talk of laying Gustav Grimsley to rest forever. Anyone who'd been keeping up with the show would probably know about this. Needless to say, Fritz MORE THAN ANYTHING. HE REALLY NEEDED A LOT OF MONEY. RIGHT NOW!
Despite everyone's claims of family camaraderie, it seemed that a dense fog of secrecy lingered over the table.

There was a chance that MORE THAN ANYTHING. HE REALLY NEEDED A LOT OF MONEY. RIGHT NOW! Yet equally likely was the possibility that in his head, the only thing he currently desired was to taste the next delicious dish in the multi-course meal. There was no way of knowing. The only one who might have known Verrier's feelings on the matter was currently sipping soup with a blank expression, not showing any signs of having taken in any of the conversation.
Albrecht had slowed down a lot since the last reunion. No-one had any doubt that if this were the old Albrecht, then MORE THAN ANYTHING. HE REALLY NEEDED A LOT OF MONEY. RIGHT NOW! Yet it was unclear if the current Albrecht wanted anything at all, other than to bathe in the fading memories of his past.
"Where's my watch?" he abruptly demanded, turning to face Verrier with sudden clarity. "I could have sworn I had it on just a few hours ago."
"It went missing two years ago, remember?" Verrier replied. "Back during Gideon's funeral." The pair had made quite a scene about this back then. Apparently the watch Albrecht had left out to dry had disappeared by the time Verrier went to retrieve it. Verrier said a servant must have taken it, but no-one could prove anything either way and in the end the matter went unresolved. Albrecht's failing memory meant he kept bringing it up long after the fact, so the others around the table were well used to this scene now.
"Yes, indeed..." Albrecht replied vaguely, not giving any impression he'd really understood. He went back to sipping his soup.

"Glad to hear it, if I get chance, I try to watc-," it was unclear whether Heinrich genuinely believed Fritz or whether he was just being nice. However, there wasn't any time to think about that because Heinrich suddenly burst into a long and loud coughing fit. It seemed like whatever he had was very serious and painful. If he wanted to pay off all his medical bills, HE REALLY NEEDED A LOT OF MONEY RIGHT NOW.

After Verrier left, Albrecht suddenly addressed Edna, though it appeared he had nothing new to say. "So you're in charge around here now?" he asked, sneering at her. "Playing Head while Gideon's away? If managing all this is too much for you, there's no shame in passing the reins to someone better suited."

"Ah, I'm sure she's fine, Grandfather," he stated, brows raised a bit at his statement. "And your son Gideon isn't away. He... passed two years ago," he explained in a calm, gentle tone of voice. "Aunt Edna has been managing fine so far, though, and I'm sure she'll do fine for the years to come! She's truly come into her own."
He glanced over at Edna as he subtly supported her, giving her a small nod.

Heinrich coughing fit eventually ended but there was still the occasional cough in between his words, "I-i th-think I'm fine now but I appreciate the help Verrier," still recovering from his fit, Heinrich replied in a very coarse voice.

What nobody knew was the fact that the island itself... wasn't "valuable", per se. It was an unsellable property with very limited natural resources. The interim headship left by Gideon was enough to pay for the property tax as well as the servants. Without the headship, she most likely wouldn't be able to manage the island at all, leaving her bankrupt. So while she didn't say anything about it, Edna MORE THAN ANYTHING. REALLY NEEDED A LOT OF MONEY blah blah you get the gist.
"Mm... this is truly delectable", Edna spoke of the dinner, deciding to change course very smoothly. "You've done it yet again, Juna, I will say. My warmest regards to you."

"Ah, right.... mhm..." Agnes mumbled, but then nodded to herself. "Okay. Aunt Ingrid!" She called out, walking around the table and inserting herself in the exposed space, where Mia would normally sit, and smiled.
"As thanks for your gift earlier, I left something in my- Um, well, your room! It's... nothing special, just some story I didn't manage to finish. It's the most complete one I have, though, so maybe you'll find some enjoyment in it..."
"And this is for you too! Tadaaa!" Agnes, from behind her back, holds out a card and a wrapped present. "Happy birthday! This is from father. He wanted me to give it to you." Agnes smiles wide, much more confident in whatever this present is compared to her own, obviously last minute one. She stays put, leaning over the chair, waiting for Ingrid to read out the card and open the present.

More than a little confused, Ingrid started reading the card and opening the gift. "Did he leave this to me two years ago...?"

Agnes then makes a bit of a surprised "oh!" face and turns to Edna and then Juna. "Sorry! That's why I was late. I was just outside for a moment, but then he surprised me... I haven't seen him in a while, but I wanted to make sure to give Aunt Ingrid her gift."

Happy birthday! I’m sorry you have to spend it at one of our stuffy reunions, and that I’m not there to distract you from it. I know you’d rather have everyone ignore your special day, but I couldn’t help but get you a gift regardless. Please don’t open it until the day of our birthday.
Thank you for looking out for Agnes while I’m not around--I’m sure she’ll love the book you gave her. Thank heavens it wasn’t lost with your luggage!
Love,
Gideon
The note is written in Gideon’s handwriting. Ingrid did not attempt to open the wrapped present (about the size of a small box but makes no sound when shaken)--whether this was because of the card's instructions or she was frozen in surprise was unclear.
