[Giorno appears on screen, his hair loose and dark, in spots, with soot. His pink jacket - complete with heart cutout - is burned in places, too.]

[Oddly enough, the boy himself is completely unharmed.]

[Even so... he looks mildly irritated.]

In case the community of imPorts is unaware... the vigilante known as "Lunatic" is active once more.

[He brushes dark marks from his shirt.]

Step carefully, those who have reason to.

[ooc: So, this happened.]

Comments

audio; it's fine! the icons helped, too.

[boobwindow]

If he dies then they have to take his body away.

[ They wouldn't... dump it into a cell and wait for it to revive, would they? That sounds unethical. ]

And when he comes back, if he does, he'll just bust out from the morgue or wherever, wouldn't he?

audio;

[darkspider]

They'll know who he is by then. It'll be moot either way.

audio

[boobwindow]

Killing or torturing the guy isn't solving anything. Using the same force he apparently uses on others is only saying it's "okay" to do that.

audio

[darkspider]

So you think that bringing him in the proper way is going to change his mind?

That's naive.

audio

[boobwindow]

No, I don't think a psycho who has no qualms about trying to set fire to teenagers is going to change his mind.

No idea who you are, but the ID hints you're one of those cape and/or mask types. There are laws guys like you have to uphold, too.

[ This would be so easier if she was in costume. She doesn't know if her words have any weight as a "civilian", even if they should. ]

audio

[darkspider]

Bad guys carry stupid codenames, too.

[Which is a moot point.

No, the point is:]

But I'm not really that worried about the law. Clearly, the law isn't on our side, or they'd access our fucking files, bring in all the fire-wielding imPorts, and test them.

They don't care enough to do that.

audio

[boobwindow]

We don't know if they are going over files this instant.

[ But given the last time they brought in anyone with a tech-related background during that hacker business, she's concerned this may not work out.

And it feels wrong to deem anyone with fire-based abilities a suspect. ]

audio

[darkspider]

[Kaine's of the opinion that once they lined those people up, it wouldn't be difficult to put two and two together.]

Why the hell would they wait until now?

audio

[boobwindow]

I don't know. I'm not psychic or a government employee.

I don't feel it's right to treat every imPort with fire abilities as a suspect.

audio

[darkspider]

There can't be that many. It wouldn't take long to get the guy who's the right size.

audio

[boobwindow]

I don't know. Something about that gives me a bad feeling.

audio

[darkspider]

A bad precedence? He's murdering people, and it isn't just us.

Take the risk, or stop talking about how burying him in some concrete with enough oxygen to survive is a bad idea.

audio

[boobwindow]

[ Impatiently: ]

What he's doing is wrong, but two wrongs aren't going to make a right to use an old cliched saying.

We're not going to agree on this.

audio

[darkspider]

Obviously. The difference is that I'm actually gonna do something about it, and you? You'll just have your beliefs.

audio

[boobwindow]

[ Damn it. ]

We're done.

[ Disconnects! ]
