[ 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! ]

[the last time carol was on earth, it was... the literal 90s, so she has no idea what this actually means. but, context clues tell her it's — some kind of agreement?]

It's the first thing anyone's going to say. Like, no one who actually did it is just going to come out with "I did it." Unless they're actually the stupidest person in the universe.

[primordialerebus]

Or a supervillain! Though I guess you can argue they're kind of stupid...

[starforce]

I think you can definitely argue that.

See? My point still stands.

[primordialerebus]

Yeah... I just wanted to add that caveat.

[ A small pause. ]

Sorry.

[starforce]

Don't be sorry. It's a good addition. Can't forget about the supervillains.

[primordialerebus]

[ :D ]

Yeah! Especially since they won't let anyone forget about them. Kind of glad there aren't any here, just some assholes.

[ She's holding onto that hope anyways. ]
