fifth bite ⧗ anonymous text

[redhourglass]

( lately, nearly everything Natasha has been doing on the network has been anonymous. this post is no different. there is a number of things she means to follow up on, without necessarily revealing herself to the world. given her .. recent acquisition of a job, it seemed best to keep a low profile as Natasha. anonymously, she could be whoever she wished to be; though it seemed lately it had been rather crowded in anon-land. ).

Are we any closer to finding our recent murder culprit? I can't help but wonder...

( that and arrogance might force the actual culprit into the spotlight, for a few moments. events after the crime had forced it into the background, but .. the means of the murder was rather unsettling. this was someone who enjoyed it. there wasn't any reason to kill the townspeople, they weren't hostile.

they would likely kill again. )

It seems to me like this is something we ought to care more about.

Wwhy the fuck are you all gettin' bent out a' shape about somethin' as borin' as a murder? People die all the fuckin' time.

[Sigh. He'll never understand people and their delicate sensibilities.]

perma- anon text on this side!

[redhourglass]

It doesn't interest me. But widespread panic is something I think we'd all like to avoid.

And here I thought that the Forensics Unit had it covered.

Maybe they're all like SH and playing with dirt. Kate Beckett seems to be missing.

Are you planning on helping?

I haven't seen or heard from them since. That's hardly the definition of having it covered.

( she's certainly not going to hurt the investigation. but help? hm. )

If they require my help, maybe.

[ ooc: if text color or quirk are a bother, let me know and I can drop them! ]

who da fuck cares aboat sum fucka that got their ass culled

[redhourglass]

( ooc: Not at all! Let me know about her text color, too! )

It seems like you and this person ought to chat.
As I said, the killing itself is not of interest. But the panic it caused that might continue is something I think we'd all like to avoid.

It's been made even more complicated since there's two different murders recently and they don't seem at all alike.

One seemed completely differently motivated and had a completely different MO.

( after all, Nat had gone to the crime scene. )

Clearly We Arent Otherwise You Would Probably Not Be Asking This Question
Are The "Gods" Not Investigating This Themselves

... You must be new.
The gods do not seem interested in problems regarding us.

Since the original message, none of use have been told anything else. I'm not in the forensics unit.

The guy who posted the soil analysis might be?

[redhourglass]

You think you'd be of use?

( she doesn't want to address the soil analysis; or at least, not here. not when she thinks she may know who it is. )

First I've heard of this. But I am a newer arrival. I'd say something like that happening, they had frakking better be caught and punished for it.

[redhourglass]

I saw you arrive, but didn't have anything to say.
How would you punish someone who committed this crime?

I haven't heard anything, but it seems like the detective that announced it is gone. I was helping out a little, though I'm not part of the team.

[ So they could've found something and just not told Allison, which is what she's hoping for. ]

What was your role, if you weren't on the team?

How terribly curious. We would think the city would be more concerned about such things, but maybe they just don't care when someone dies anymore.

We wonder if it's worth looking into.

Shortly after the murder, .. other events forced it on the back burner for many. When people brought here are killed, they come back to life; the same is not true for natives.

Is it in your best interest to let a murderer kill again?

It's not uncommon for people to occupy their minds with other things when they are not the ones touched by death.

[He should know. He's dealt enough of it himself.]

anon text.

[redhourglass]

( a valid point. )

Given the most recent events, that would make sense.
I suppose I meant to remind everyone as well as ask about the status of the investigation.

Trust me, it's being worked on, if not announced to the world.

[redhourglass]

Is it? By you?

[wasthemaster]

And I suppose asking about it is your way of showing you care about it much more than the rest of us.

anon text.

[redhourglass]

That's quite a leap.

[tigers]

For why? Death don't take here, in case you hadn't been informed, and there are far worse ways to pass the time.

[redhourglass]

It happens to stick for the natives.

And while murder may not bother everyone, most will panic.

Obviously. Personally I find myself intrigued by the recent influx of anonymous inquiries into the subject. Bit suspicious. Form and style similar, question and then prompt -- is that an attempt at inspiring guilt? Clever; guilt is a good motivator. It makes me wonder -- who might be so interested in the progress of a murder investigation?

Aside from the murderer, of course.

Boring. And I was told you were good.
