[This communicator has been hacked.

Attached to the broadcast is the alias LUNATIC, a name some of you may have come to know by now, though most of you will not have. Not to worry, of course. There will be plenty of opportunity in the future...]


I have been watching.

[The speaker's voice has been manipulated to sound both artificial and faintly hollow.]

There are sinners in your midst. [You know their names, don't you? Perhaps some of them even spring to mind: Lucifer, The Manipulator, Annie Leonhart, Reiner Braun, Bertholdt Hoover...and so on. It's possible you even sympathize with some of them, though it's clear the speaker does not.] You answer their crimes with rewards of friendship, forgiveness...and freedom.

Foolishness.


[What follows is clearly exasperated, but spoken in such quiet tones that it forces listeners to be all the more attentive.]

As expected, heroes...your idea of justice...is weak.

But that is why I have come.


[The speaker pauses, perhaps for dramatic effect, for when he begins again there is a certain zealousness to his tone.]

My name...is Lunatic.

[Do not mistake him for a hero.]

I will strike down the evil that has arisen. For the wicked ones...there will be no escape. The time for them to atone for their atrocities is now.

They will hear the voice of Thanatos.


[Those listening closely may hear the crackling and hissing of flames in the background...it grows louder and louder before the communication is suddenly cut and the line goes dead.]




[OOC: Please note that icon links have been broken. This broadcast in no way reveals the connection between Yuri and Lunatic.]

Look, Yagami. I'm certainly not going to try to prevent you from opposing this man: his philosophies are repugnant, and he must indeed be stopped. But it needs to be done subtly.
godly: (incredulous consideration)

[He looks like he wants to argue the point, but Light hesitates. If he were to be honest with himself, his irritation had been getting to him; the fact that this all seems to run parallel with Kira's own intentions gets under his skin.

Maybe Edgeworth is right. Maybe he needs to stifle his indignation, this once.]


You make it sound like I'm challenging him to a duel to the death, which I'm not. I was only making my own viewpoints clear, that I won't stand for this kind of criminal behavior.

But... fine. I understand what you mean.
glassinine: (trying to look cool)

[ And Edgeworth relaxes just a touch. ]

All right. Good.

[ So. Making a concession in return for Light's: ]

Do you have any thoughts on how to deal with him?
godly: (near resignation)

[on this end, he crosses his arms]

The obvious start would be finding out exactly who he is. He's already left us a few clues, however small they are. Someone who can manipulate blue-green flames, someone of tall and slender build. Someone who has likely been here for awhile -- he referenced a network post that I had put up back in March. Of course, he could have also just been going through the old archives, so this may end up be irrelevant.

[A pause.] Back home, the detective I worked with... He was in the same position of looking for a suspect, as well. He laid a trap once, and Kira took the bait. It narrowed the search.
glassinine: (troubled)

Hm. I have a bit of information to, perhaps, narrow the search rather further. If I share it, will you agree not to go about laying any traps?
godly: (undeterred)

[personal profile] godly 2014-08-14 06:16 pm (UTC)(link)
...Yes.

[He wants to hear this. Besides, he'd consult with Edgeworth first before taking any action, likely.]
glassinine: (confident)

[personal profile] glassinine 2014-08-14 06:27 pm (UTC)(link)
He's from Mr. Kaburagi's world. And there are only four people from his world present.
glassinine: (confident)

Filtered

[personal profile] glassinine 2014-08-14 06:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Mr. Kaburagi, Mr. Brooks, Judge Petrov, and a man named Ryan Goldsmith.
godly: (light touches his face a lot)

[personal profile] godly 2014-08-14 07:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Have you spoken to any of them? Suspect any of them?
glassinine: (troubled)

Filtered

[personal profile] glassinine 2014-08-14 07:57 pm (UTC)(link)
I've spoken to Mr. Kaburagi. I...do not particularly suspect him, for rather obvious reasons. As for the rest, however...All are possibilities.

Or, of course, there could be an unknown individual from their world; that is always a possibility.
godly: (perpetual motion)

It's a starting place if nothing else. What would you propose we do with this information?
glassinine: (pensive)

Filtered

[personal profile] glassinine 2014-08-14 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Monitor them, naturally. This individual...His voice might be disguised, but it's wholly possible that we'll be able to recognize speech patterns.
godly: (blah blah blah!)

Filtered

[personal profile] godly 2014-08-14 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Agreed. But at the same time, this does make it a bit difficult to monitor the people you listed. We would have to be very subtle and casual about it, as not to arouse suspicion.
glassinine: (confident)

[personal profile] glassinine 2014-08-15 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
Are you capable of that?

...I believe I am, yes.

I believe you are as well.

[He's not sure if that's a compliment or not.]

Are you tasking me with this, then?
glassinine: (troubled)

Filtered

[personal profile] glassinine 2014-08-15 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
No. I have no authority to task you with anything, Mr. Yagami.
godly: (i'm not doing your homework for you)

[personal profile] godly 2014-08-15 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
I see. Because I wouldn't have said no.

[ A hesitation. ]

I...see.

Well. I simply - If it is a task you yourself think is worthwhile, then you ought to engage in it.
godly: (not even worth my time.)

[personal profile] godly 2014-08-15 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
[There's no hesitation on his part.]

Of course. And if I do, I'll be sure to keep you updated.

I would appreciate that, Mr. Yagami.
