okay

Let's all just agree that werewolf hunting? Was a mistake. We are not soldiers. We're mostly teachers and students, and maybe a few cops. I don't even know why I signed up for that, it was clearly stupid from the start.

I am hoping hard that nobody died or got captured.

God, I hate to ask this, but still. Something's rotten in that district, something needs to be done.

If anyone's still up for it, I'd like to lead a group to tear down that stupid snake statue. I still think it might be part of the source of this bullshit. We'll need pulleys, ropes, sledgehammers. A winch, if anyone has it. But the main idea is to do this fast and dirty and quick. Get in, rip it down, get out. We are not going to hunt those things anymore, that's for sure. You see one? You fucking run. Do not engage, do not deal with.

Anyway. Friday or Saturday night. Y'all's choice. Strider, PoliceDerp, you two still on for helping with this? Liz? (Liz I understand if you're fucking done with me after I ran)

Is there anything I can do...?

Text

[reapsthewind]

can you:

> pull on ropes

> swing a sledgehammer

then yes

Text

[shiromadoushi]

Yeah. Likely better with the ropes than the hammer.

Text

[reckless_fire]

I'll help. I can probably get my hands on some rope and a sledgehammer.

[reapsthewind]

Awesome, you're in.

[reckless_fire]

K. Just let me know when.

[ ...he's just laughing at you over wherever the connection's coming from, Chris. A lot. Really a lot.

This is probably somewhat disconcerting, for the record. ]

I wouldn't be of much use, unless you want me around as a potential mutant dog detection system. But I wish you a lot of luck.

[She didn't see him at the hunt. She didn't see him panic and be useless except to maybe escape with the kids. Maybe she still has a shred of respect for him?]

[reapsthewind]

[Honey, she RAN at the first sign of trouble. if she knew you ran protecting the kids? She'd probably respect you MORE. Strategic retreat!]

If you're up for it, actually, that'd be really helpful.

Far be it from me to say "I told you so," but I did tell you so.

Count me in for tonight, though. It sounds at least not quite as dangerous as handing out firearms to everyone and expecting them to be able to fight like soldiers.

I'd like to discuss this in person at some point. Just so I can get a full debrief, as it were.

[reapsthewind]

... okay. You fucking told me so. I concede that this time, in fact, it was fucking stupid to go along. Anyway, yeah, you're in.

Hm.

Booze? Booze and chatting. I know a bar with pretty private booths. And really good cocktails. And whiskey.

[This is coming from her webcam. It appears to be later in the evening with only the glow of a singular lamp illuminating her for now.]

I'm not sure if I can bring any supplies really but I would like to come if possible. I want to see the statue at the very least.

text;

[reapsthewind]

Sure thing. Even if you just want to spectate, you're welcome to come along.

text | phone

[elfstoned]

Of course. But listen -- there are some strange folks lurking around the statue. They're dressed like street people, but don't act like it, and I've never seen them in the DD before. Undercover cops, I'd bet, or agents of whatever's behind this.

[reapsthewind]

... well shit

Any way to get rid of them?

[exloserspromise]

I'm sorry, but it needs to be said: you're crazy and this cannot possibly end well.

[reapsthewind]

Still less crazy than the guy who said we should hand a bunch of kids guns and tell them to shoot some cops. I'm the queen of sanity by that rubric.

You don't have to help. You can stay home and pretend that people haven't already been killed over whatever's going on. Or you can try to fight. Your choice!

text; pretend this was remotely on time, pfft

[earnedmystripes]

I'm still in.

You sure you wanna be doing this at night? The wolf things might find you guys, and you won't even be armed this time.

text; hurr it's cool

[reapsthewind]

... Not really! But it's what I've got. And well, we'll have sledgehammers.

Starsky. Good to see you made it out.

[fuck]

Look, I'm sorry. I panicked. And we shouldn't have been there in the first place.

[She feels genuinely awful about this, she does. ]
