[QUOTE="mcnathan80, post: 3282059, member: 40529"] [I]You begin to search the apartment in earnest looking for signs or clues as to who Haris was, and who this mysterious roomate is. It's always odd rooting through the home of a dead man, you keep expecting them to just show up and say 'hey, get out of my house!', but you know that's just nerves.
