[And to aid your reading: Count Dooku, a great sinner of greed. Your obsession with power and influence has led to the corruption of genuine calls for change & innocents that believe in those ideals. That corruption cannot stand and so we will steal the heart of your aspirations and make you confess your crimes with your own mouth. --The Phantom Thieves]

What is this?

[codeoracle]

We are the Phantom Thieves of Hearts. We steal the hearts of the corrupt and bring the truth from their lies.

The Count is on notice. Consider this the first public calling card we have delivered here.

The Count works for freedom.

The Count works for his own needs and agenda, fooling the people into thinking he has their interests at heart.

And people complain about my aesthetics.

[Still, he's interested. Very curious. A ping eventually appears to Futaba, a spambot-like message that leads through a hyperlink rabbit hole (including a lot of posts, flagged as regular forum spam, on abandoned or inactive corners of imPort fanfic/discussion boards??? look, don't ask). The one thing they all have in common is that the links appear as a garble of seemingly unrelated text, all signed "-02". This continues until the final link reaches a plaintext site that simply reads]

I like your style. Let's see what you've got.

And here I thought he was just famous for being a former metalhead...

[ given the place they're in, literally stealing someone's heart seems to be the least-weird thing she's seen this week. ]

Whatever you do, try not to let anyone die.

He will confess it all himself.

[calltheundertaker]

You got any proof or are we just going to have to wait for him to confess after you steal his heart? And how do you steal someone's heart? This is one of those metaphor things, ain't it?

What happened and why are people from my galaxy involved? Again.

You will not be waiting long.

[izanyagi]

[Well uh...that is certainly a callout. And yet.]

Do you have proof? Sorry I'm knew so I haven't even heard of this Count Dooku.

text > Anon

[crimeboy]

The proof will be coming straight from the perpetrator before long.

[izanyagi]

And how do we know it's not brainwashing?

You are stealing 'their heart' after all.

[crimeboy]

Therein lies the issue, doesn't it? Guess you'll just have to see what happens.

[izanyagi]

[Naoto, he needs you so much right now...]

I don't really like to wait...I'm more the type to look into things.

[He'll figure this out. Eventually. Time to hit down looking for clues.]

[yaaas_queen]

with a name like Count Dooku you don't need to drag him like this

his parents did the work for you 🙄

[discountstarscream]

Well, that's being proactive.

Good on you for doing good, I suppose.

[calltheundertaker]

Well, I'm looking forward to figuring out just what I'm waiting for

[crimeboy]

You know, with all of the powers here, you might also be concerned about body snatching or shapeshifting.

We do hope you put your efforts into finding the truth.
