Balzac runs through the classic routine of doctorly checks, pulse at her wrist timed by his pocket watch, temperature taken using the back of his hand on her forehead, peel open an eye etc.
OOC,Can Balzac make a Medicine roll?

OOC,She’s already been diagnosed, it’s psychological caused by shock; there’s nothing physically wrong with her.

Balzac nods with authority. "It is as I feared. There is nothing physically wrong with the young lady, her problems are psychological."
"I wonder if she has suffered the great shock perhaps?"
OOC,Any medical charts or whatnot to read in the room?
OOC: Hey, Balzac is always happy to take the credit!

OOC,No. She’s just expected to rest for now. And be relatively undisturbed, so it’s best not to hangout too long.

Balzac caste a quick professional eye about the room, looking for anything interesting, flowers left by family of friends, and the like.

The room is bare, Vittoria was only admitted that morning for observation.

Balzac turns to the others. "I cannot help this young lady, at least not without further information. Shall we take a turn out in the fresh air and catch up on news?"

"Yes, she must have endured a very traumatic experience," says Alice. "Were I an alienist, I might be able to help her better. I feel like I can almost get through to her, but she's resisting. I suppose we'd better step outside."

Isadora tries to remember her own catatonic experiences... and the things that she could feel or understand while in shock.
But these thoughts lead down a terrible road instead!
OOC,Uh........ :cry: :roll:

Isadora is reminded of some terrible thoughts from her past that she has tried to suppress for many years.
Isadora,Lose 1 SAN! But you can roll Psychoanalysis. Last attempt.
Isadora is too shocked by her recollections to be of any assistance...

OOC,I'm guessing everyone leaves the room now to discuss things outside? If anyone wants to quickly try something else, you can always pop back in.
Making no progress with Vittoria, the investigators leave the room to discuss what they know.

Harrison watches as each of the others attempts to get some reaction out of Vittoria as he himself did earlier. He is slightly emboldened to feel as if perhaps he does belong in this group of people who are quite obviously versed in the world of the unseen and unknown.
After leaving the room, he gets up the courage to speak to the others. "Did you know there are rumors going around that Vittoria and Frank were experimenting with black magic?"

Harrison,Nobody said anything about Vittoria and black magic. It's not even been said that they knew each other. But if this is an intentional or accidental error on the part of Harrison, go with it.

"No, this is the first I've heard of it," says Alice. "Who is Frank?"

Alice,Frank is Frank Charlton, the dead student.

Keeper,I am making an assumption that Vittoria and Frank are connected in this matter as it would be too coincidental to think these two incidents are unrelated. I'm repeating what I heard about Frank and tying in Vittoria in an attempt to be dramatic which I hope will influence the others that there might be value in letting me come with them when they investigate.

Balzac gives Harrison a somewhat judgemental look.
"Where was this cafe that you believed the students would frequent?"
