[ well, there's no way to say it, except to say it, so: ]

One of us died today. Big guy, blond hair. I don't know his name. I found his body.

[ that's his schtick, isn't it? finding bodies. ]

What I do know is that he fell on some rocks near the beach. Looks like an accident, no foul play. The fall shouldn't have killed him.

[ could've, if the bastard really were that unlucky, but it's unlikely. besides: ]

But it did break his lantern. Seems like Winters was telling the truth about that after all. Before anyone asks:

1) No, I didn't see it happen.
2) Yes, I checked for a pulse.
3) No, I didn't do it.

[ juST COVERING HIS BASES THERE ]

One more thing. I had to step away to get my tablet. When I came back, both he and his lantern were gone. No one else was here, I'm positive. They just vanished into thin air.

[ ooc | so as of today, rosinante (callada) is dead :C feel free to threadjack in this post and use it for discussion or whatever! ]

And what are you that you can just teleport?

[fogey]

Different.

[ special, reginald hargreeves might've said. or just: the umbrella academy. ]

What are you, a wizard?

[necromantiae]

Why is that everyone's first guess?

( did he really give off the vibe of a wizard? )

I'm a warlock. Much better than a wizard if I don't say so myself.

[fogey]

Is there a difference?

[necromantiae]

Wizards tend to be associated with legend and fairy tales. And they're typically old men with long, grey beards.

And, as you can see or not because we are conversing via written word, I am none of those. I have the magic but I am not a fairy tale.

[fogey]

Semantics, then.

[necromantiae]

Probably, yes.

But, I do like to think a warlock sounds a little more...foreboding and cool than a wizard.
