007 ✷ VIDEO

[nitidus]

How many of you are also investigating the 'Hornets'? I'd like to offer my assistance. Skills include:

(1) Very snazzy super powers pertaining to luck and sometimes the future. My abilities as a Seer grant me visions to success if success is possible. It works well while investigating and when planning romantic surprises for girlfriends.
(2) Ability to confuse criminals with long winded speeches and words no longer included in the Oxford dictionary.
(3) I have a mean left hook, as infamous ImPort Karkat Vantas will attest to.

I am willing to allow my abilities to be used as far as they can be useful. The Seer ones, that is. Although, also the other two.

Additionally, this may be a good opportunity to share information, if you have it.

Have you been able to find anything yet? We have a lot of information about their intentions and what they might want to do next, but it's filled with vagueries and posturing.

[nitidus]

Nothing I've made sense of yet. My Seeing led me to a fellow ImPort and then on a bizarre two day quest that left me Seeing Brycha, Michigan?

It's been a very confusing couple of days. I don't suppose you have anything to offer about Michigan?

[selfequipped]

Well, according to Mr. Kent, the Hornets wanted to drag people back to Michigan.

We had a swearing in event at Brycha a few months ago, too, but I didn't go to it. Michigan's not really my scene.

[nitidus]

Nor mine.

Did he give any indication as to why they'd want to take people there?

I'm doing some investigations of my own; if anything comes up, I'll let you know. Or if I need help! Nothing concrete yet, though.

[nitidus]

Duly noted! And thank you. Likewise, I will keep you updated on any developments.

voice;

[observationalhazard]

Thanks! It's actually incredibly interesting. And, you know, a bit threatening, but I'm used to that.

[nitidus]

I understand what you mean -- the pathology behind the culprits is fascinating in addition to being abhorrent. I'm wondering if anyone involved might be arrogant enough to answer a few questions, thought that might be an inappropriate line of thought at this very moment.

I kind of want a demonstration of number two.

[nitidus]

Unless you have a secret life as a criminal, Stiles, I'm afraid I will have to disappoint you.

Or you could pretend.

[ex_question191]

Yeah, totally. Let me just paint a dollar sign on this burlap bag and cut up one of Lydia's stockings.

[nitidus]

I do appreciate a boy willing to go the extra mile.

I spoke with Captain Ananke. Unfortunately, she had no information on why Brycha is the only location to have been selected to host a swearing-in outside of the porter cities. Those decisions are handed down to her, rather than being handled from within her department.

[lyingheart]

Not to mention, Ananke and those who've been in contact with us in the past have been asked to scale down communications with us - particularly surrounding the Hornets, now that they're out of the shadows. Another decision likely handed down to her, with Holiday the warning of personal cost.

well thats just lovely
not entirely unexpected but lovely all the same
though i hadnt mentioned to her it may be connected to the hornets
i wasnt sure yet if they are connected

[lyingheart]

It's not unexpected. Not with what's been happening this month.

voice.

[nitidus]

I don't like where this seems to be headed. Thank you, Kanaya.

voice.

[glowsferatu]

Of course. And I don't think I can disagree, there's too much going on and too many unsavory potential angles on it to inspire any confidence. Nonetheless, she said she would have someone looking into it, but lacking any real specifics beyond the name of a city, I'm not sure how far they could get.

voice.

[nitidus]

Regardless of what they find, if we can pin point the components of what was used in Orlando, we can begin investigating whether or not there are any outlets whom happen to sell them in Brycha. Hopefully they will be forthcoming with their clientele.

text

[lyingheart]

I have been, if Kanaya hasn't mentioned it before.

text

[nitidus]

She has. She's been keeping me updated on your progress together.

text

[lyingheart]

I thought she might have been. It would have been difficult in other places without some of that feedback she was getting from you, as it is.

[ which is really a thank you for nauru ]

[ Keeping to voice because he's in Alaska for the forseeable future. You know. Covertly. ]

I didn't realise number two was a superpower. If so I think I've been disproportionately compensated.

voice;

[nitidus]

It's not a power per say, but it is a talent that I have perfected over the last twelve months.

voice;

[dogsled]

Well I have to say I'm quite impressed; twelve months is quite something to achieve what for some people takes an entire lifetime.
