[ 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! ]

[ Well, that didn't take long. ]

...yeah, i wouldn't worry, he's probably coming back

[fogey]

So I've heard. Would've been nice to know before I made the announcement

[ HE'S TIRED ]

[nonscriptum]

yeah, sorry
you're probably getting slammed right now

[fogey]

You think?

[nonscriptum]

hey, might've brought it up in conversation but you were kind of busy giving me the third degree about my career

[fogey]

Here's a thought: mentioning people coming back from the dead would've been an effective way to change the topic

[nonscriptum]

yeah, that was definitely at the forefront of my mind at the time, you're so right

this is on me

[ drags! hands! down face! ]

No, this is on the idiot who fell and smashed his own lantern.

[fogey]

And on the idiot who announced it without thinking about it first.

[ congrats on being probably the only person here he'd admit that to, nate. ]

[nonscriptum]

[ He recognizes the significance. He won't even point it out. ]

send some people my way if you get tired of fielding questions, okay?

[fogey]

I can handle it.

[ that's a thank you, maybe ]

[nonscriptum]

i know.

[ You're welcome. ]
