Yes. No to both questions.

[Edema Rue she/her]

That was probably the most confusing way possible to answer that, but oki doki.

That was the point

[Edema Rue she/her]

Oh okay. 

Slightly related question, does anyone know how to function through a book hangover?

[Telrao she/her]

You don't. You sit there and dozily dream about the book's events and characters, lingering in the pure ecstasy of a good book. If anyone approaches you, mumble something about books, and you'll survive. Maybe. Probably.

Please give her better advice. Now she's going to try to talk to me about it and I haven't read the book yet.

What book is this? I wanna know

[Immortal Platypus]

I think it's TLM, unless she's talking about a different book now. She's already started her rant.

[Edema Rue she/her]

It's TLM. It would be fine (for me to "sit there and dozily dream about the book") except that I missed a week of school and haven't done any of the work yet  so I keep getting yelled at.

Actually I wasn't talking to him about it, I was just complaining about having too much to do. I would never spoil a book.

I first saw this riddle when I was 11 so I'm not going to spoil the fun for anyone but here's a couple of questions to hopefully help out.

Is the man wearing anything that one wouldn't normally wear to a forest?
Are there any tracks leading to or from the body?
Is there anything unusual about the surrounding forest?

[Immortal Platypus]

Don't answer those or put them in spoiler tags that say that they are the answers to those questions so I don't have to see the answers. I'm figuring this out.

[Edema Rue she/her]

No please answer them! We need to know this! It’s not cheating it’s being resourceful!

We don't need to know and I know it's technically not cheating, but I'm figuring this out without those clues.

You said the murderer was human right? so no snakebite or something like that?

Nothing like that

[Immortal Platypus]

ok, thanks. also thanks for being patient with us non-riddle experts (or at least me)

[Immortal Platypus]

Was it murder? (what i'm basically asking is "Was it murder or manslaughter?")

Oops, I forgot to edit it into the other post. Sorry mods/admins!!

There really isn't such a thing as a riddle expert. And this is a hard riddle as I gave you basically only the statement that a man is lying dead in a forest. And you've come far with that, and this is an infuriating riddle.

It was not intentional

ok, manslaughter it is. did the murderer use a traditional weapon (ex: gun, sword)? Did he use an old weapon (ex: cannon, catapult)?

Was the murderer male. (Remember, it matters to me.)
