Did this place change you?

Has your heart wandered, since you've been here?

I dont talk about what I believe on here.

The elephant didnt do it for you?

[glencolans]

Is that what that was?
Interesting.

[aluminumandash]

Briefly.

Ever seen one?

[glencolans]

I have now.
Tastes fine.

[aluminumandash]

Shit, youre gonna hurt the chefs feelings.

Games pretty thin in these parts. You got the whole jungle running scared?

[glencolans]

They know who the top predator is.
You should, too.
Yet here you are.

[aluminumandash]

That a complaint?

Whatre you gonna do when its all gone?

[glencolans]

An observation.
It's also proof that I'll never run out.

[aluminumandash]

What do you do with the bodies?

[glencolans]

I don't let them go to waste.

[aluminumandash]

Youre gonna leave it at that? Nows your chance to scare the shit out of us.

[glencolans]

I don't need to.

[aluminumandash]

We got some dumb motherfuckers in this bunch.

1/2

[somethingintangible]

honestly yea

2/2

[somethingintangible]

not HE412T tho he's cool

private...and stressed

[aluminumandash]

Dont give him targets.

also private and also stressed! (cw: mentions of use of police force on civilians)

[somethingintangible]

[ Give him targets?? Wait, is he going to read what she wrote and then go after Dirk? Maddy's blood runs cold. It was a thought that hadn't occurred to her, that he or she or whoever this "person" (?? they don't sound like a person) is would do that. The truth is that Maddy is terrified of the entity at the cabin, or would be if it were closer to her. Far away at the airfield, this hadn't felt truly "real" to her at first, but this comment makes the hairs on the back of her neck stand on edge as the threat becomes, suddenly, real.

This guy she's talking to... he's a cop. A cop that Maddy doesn't really know. At least the cop, like the cabin, is far enough away that this time she can't be physically cuffed to a table and have her clothes literally cut off so that somebody can collect evidence she doesn't want them to.

But he seems like he's trying to help (again, ??). Maddy's fingers start to become damp with sweat. She's suddenly nervous as she pounds away the letters slowly, one finger at a time. Despite the decreased speed, her punctuation and spelling immediately becomes much better as she tries to make her texting more accessible to an old person, especially a detective. She's not really sure how to address him - "detective" is what his boyfriend calls him so that seems weird, but she doesn't really feel comfortable calling him anything else either, so she just settles on "sir": ]

Hello sir,

Please accept my sincere apology. I was promise I not trying to give him any ideas.

[ If it were a less serious topic, she might counter with, "How do you know it's a 'he?'" but this isn't really the time for that kind of thing right now.

A combination of self-absorption and genuine worry for Dirk's safety makes her add: ]

You don't think he's going to go after anybody because of what I said, do you?

private

[aluminumandash]

I know you werent. But the best thing you can do is let him alone.

Decent odds he can read this. Notice his callsign aint on the list? How it looks like maybe he picked it himself?

[At least Dirk's much less stressed about this situation than Maddy is.]

I appreciate it.
Being cool is something of a family business.
I take this shit seriously.

text!

[somethingintangible]

[ Give her a break! This is the first supernatural murderer she's had to deal with before! It's a new situation.

Not the first murderer, but the first supernatural one. ]

haha
how much do you make from being cool?
wish that was my family business
my mom just does nails

[glencolans]

You don't count yourself among them?

[somethingintangible]

YOU'RE among them shut the fuck up cunt

[glencolans]

You must feel very strong since you're so far away.

[aluminumandash]

Nah Im a smart son of a bitch.

You wanna make this personal you know where Im at.

[ But kindly wait 5-6 hours so he can torture a guy first! ]

[glencolans]

Are you?
You're the one that ended up in chains.
After failing to realize that I killed her, no less.
