a. bbs; the Baron declares war

[ It starts with a message on the BBS]

I know one of you did it. One of you killed Rei Ryugazaki. I'm bloody well sure it was and I'm not going to stop til I find you, I swear on me scythe.

But there were others too, I know. I want anyone who knows anything about these murders to come forward. I want to hear everything you lot know and where we can start looking for the bastard to bring them to justice!

My name's Ronald Knox. I'll be waiting here if anyone wants to talk for your privacy's sake.

[ Included are directions to a quiet cafe tucked away in the sidestreets of Tokyo. ]

--

Who: Ronald Knox, Kuroyukihime, anyone who wants to talk about MURDERS~
When: July 27, 12am-6pm
Where: A small cafe in Tokyo
What: Ron wants answers and Hime needs a hug
Warnings: M U R D E R S

b. action; Not so shady dealings...

[ Anyone who decides to take Ron up on his offer is going to find him taking up one booth of said cafe, right in the corner with a cup of tea in front of him. It's gone cold and he's intently watching the door. Beside him sits a young lady, her dark hair shielding her face but her shoulders are shaking and her eyes are red. Hime isn't looking her best but she's trying. In front of her is a notepad, and a pen. Clearly she'll be taking notes.

But should anyone approach, Ron would be sure to address them, looking up at them before rising from his seat and motioning to the cushioned seat in front of them. ]

She's with me. Rei was... special to her and he was my shinki. If you've come to talk, there's nowhere better. I want to know everything.




[ ooc: both prompts are ota, either one will do. Answers may come from Ron (diehardreaper) or Kuroyukihime (papillonprincess). Please indicate who you want in the subject of your tag. ]

B - Ron

[deniles]

[He doesn't know what happened to Rei. He's not sure about any of the murders, except that he wonders if any fingers are going to be pointing his way with the trouble he's caused people.

He's not going to be thinking that. Instead, he wants to try and make Ron's life easier.

He enters the cafe, moving to the booth and holding up a bottle of bourbon as he moves beside it.]

Brought this for you. I have nothing to help, but at least you'll have something to enjoy.

Where is he?

[Killed? That... doesn't seem right. It can't be right. ... How?]

How do you know this?

private text; afternoon of the 28th

[subtract]

How many of these murders have there been that you're aware of?

[Despite having met Ron a few times by now, Shun is cautious about the callout for information. There are parts of it he doesn't want spreading unchecked, and he can't entirely trust that things are going to be private if they're exchanged at a public cafe.

But in the first place, he'd agreed not to share certain details of the case. Collating the bits and pieces of evidence that had largely made it either to the network or out in rumour form, though, is a less risky matter, and he eventually settles on passing that much along.

Rather than risk hanging around outside and being seen if the murderer took notice of the meeting location as well, Shun teleports directly into the cafe, landing somewhere in the back. He scopes out the area quickly before heading over to the booth from the opposite direction to the door.

Shun spares the girl a glance, but little else as he sits down. He usually prefers not to, but it's a bit serious of a situation to be arguing about it.]

You're sure this place is free of eavesdroppers? [He doesn't sound at all perturbed by the possibility, his voice remaining neutral, but it's still rather low. Being overheard is extra trouble he'd rather not deal with.]

[ Some unfortunate kid has left their stuffed goat toy tucked behind a chair in this café. It's not really doing anything except staring at Ron and Kuroyukihime's table. ]

Ronald? What do you know? You have my aid; all you need do is ask.

I'm sorry this is affecting you.

There have been six murders before him. The first four were found in pairs. The next two were committed within a day of each other.

If that pattern holds, then the killer will find their next target within the next 24 hours.
