[ he's busy fiddling with his magic eight ball as they're talking, shaking it and looking at the answer before shrugging. ]

I didn't know about anybody else beforehand besides us, Diluc, Charles and Dion. Everybody else was a huge surprise, too. But now that we know something happened there last night...it's not great.

Especially if Margaret and Sora weren't even there.

[a little shake of his head, at that.]

But at least it's a shorter list of places this time?

That helps a little, even if that means there's still room for overlap for the two cases. And that's going to be the tricky part if that's true.

....right, right. Didn't think about that part.

...I know where Margaret was last night, but no idea about Sora. Senior crew can usually tell us where they picked up the bodies, at least, so we might be able to put together a timeline a little earlier than usual.

Here's hoping. It'll make things a lot easier if we can...

[a little sigh, there, as he pulls a cigarette out and lights it.]

We did pretty decently last week, as much as I hate to say it. Though I'm hoping if somebody got something like my eight ball or Sheba's guitar they're actually gonna bring it with them.
