+Sorana Posted March 6, 2019 Report Share Posted March 6, 2019 Marianne answered the strangers (=Csilen) nod with one of her own, keeping her annoyance from her face. He wouldn't have died had he told them their name before asking questions? But then, what did she expect? "I would like to speak with them, yes." She answered although the question hadn't been directed at her and then looked at the stranger. "I wouldn't be opposed to you coming as well." @Nohadon @I think I am here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He targeted Connection at the lady, and a little bit of a noble accent developed as he Connected. “I agree,” he said, turning to the Head Officer, Gallows. “We should talk to the witnesses. Maybe the people who saw the train arrive, and then we can work backwards if anything seemed off.” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A young man who seemed very irritated, bracelets adorned his wrists. A small child huddled next to her father, both scared, wearing formal clothing and a middle-aged man with a wild gleam in his eyes, he wore a tasseled cloak and scars lined his arms. He reverently clutched a spearhead. Edited March 6, 2019 by Nohadon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Sorana Posted March 6, 2019 Report Share Posted March 6, 2019 Quote On the way to the witnesses Marianne's smile turned friendlier. Maybe the stranger wasn't that rude, and he simply had forgotten to introduce himself. Maybe she could work together with him. "How do you plan to approach the situation?" She asked. "Do you prefer to devide them up, between us, or should one ask the questions and the other one observe? Or do you think it would be better if we both questioned the same person playing different roles?" @I think I am here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then we might be able to decide who is most important to us. What do you think?" =================== Quote While talking to the witnesses: May looks for signs that someone is lying/ misleading them/ holding back on information. Mostly she does this by judging the pace they speak at, their body language, looking for nervous ticks, or of course if they contradict themselves. Does it work for you like that? Or would you prefer me to be more specific? And is it alright if I write it down once for the conversation with all of them? @Nohadon Edited March 6, 2019 by Sorana 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Sorana Posted March 7, 2019 Report Share Posted March 7, 2019 Marinne noted down their names and then looked over to Cslien. She wasn't sure who to choose first, but maybe he would know. They all might have seen something. Then she realized, tvat she had been here as well when the train arrived. Did that make her witness, too?

old man moomba Posted March 7, 2019 Report Share Posted March 7, 2019 Fear took a look out the window. They were moving through True Madrial. He jumped up and waved the the other constables. He scooped up his messenger bag and made his wayto the end of the car. The train jolted to a stop just before pulling into the station. Fear knew why. He walked over to the end of the car and stepped out. He strode past the train he had taken and valuted up on to the platform like he owned the place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young Bard Posted March 7, 2019 Report Share Posted March 7, 2019 Hmmm... This looks too interesting not to take part in. Name: Tunny Gender: Male Appearance: Slightly balding, lean, wears baggy clothes. Yellowing teeth. Powers: None. Skills: Getting around quietly, impersonation, breaking into place, making shoes. (Spot the odd one out, everybody. ) Backstory: From very early on in life, Tunny grew up on the streets. He learned one thing early - if you wanted anything done, you'd best be prepared to do it yourself. Trust in others was a luxury for those with wealth. He managed to get by, through a combination of begging, pickpocketing, and the occasional con, when times were hard. Three years ago, Tunny was involved in a con, and earned enough money to go clean. He bought a small shoe-selling store in a small away-from-anywhere town, where he's worked since. It's what he'd always wanted, yet somehow, it seemed so much more... boring than his life before. There were none of the adrenaline surges like when you reached your hand into someones pocket, not knowing if you were about to get caught. So when he heard about a mass murder, barely a few blocks from where his shop was, then that seemed like an interesting opportunity to do something a little more exciting. And, if some rich guy lost a lot of money, they'd probably be offering quite a reward to get it back. I feel like Tunny would make an interesting counterpoint to Marianne, low-brow meets high-brow, which could be interesting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was early in the morning, and I saw one passenger leave." Serak looked irritated. "Can I leave now? I have to be getting back to drypost soon. I still work there." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
