[PRIVATE to DEAN and IRIS]

Bring me up to date on these murders. I was assuming they're like all the other slash and run numbers we get when it's too quiet, but sounds like people are all on edge about this one.

[PUBLIC]

Hey, kitchen staff, I say we get a little festive.

As a globe trotter, I don't really put much meaning to seasons; one hemisphere's fall is another one's scorcher, and all. But hell, maybe it'd help calm down the psychopaths if they had something regimented to focus on. They had some bullshit program like that in the prison I landed myself in back home.

trouble is there's no way to be sure. we were working on a dead drop messaging system but we never got it off the ground yet. i know his room's still there. so is nathan's but no sign of either.

...and now zane and harvey are fighting. ilu for beng able to keep your head in a bloody crisis.

possibly other reasons.

[Ohoho, you are going to have questions later, Iris. But right now he's in work mode, and just smiles to himself and lets her little phrase slide.]

Want me to tell 'em to knock it off?

be like putting a fire out with whisky. let me <3 <3

[Iris types faster than she thinks sometimes, and she's multitasking like whoa right now. She forgot to remind herself not to say it, to keep it light, to not be clingy.

Maybe he didn't notice.]

[He'll delete it later. But right now, he's saved it, a little memento in text form.]

Long as they don't kill each other. We don't need more chaos.

just shouting, I think. I knew I had the wrong end of him helping; but he's still helping, and it's good for him. pricked his ears up like a dog shown a new tennis ball when I asked him.

but argh, save me from drama queens.

okay level eight checked. no bodies and no one's killed me. woo fucking hoo.

Just don't let him start tossing that coin at you.

Any pattern to how these deaths happen? Mostly late hours, around certain areas?

hard to say with only two. alpha's blood was dried when Bush found him.

if he were a less shitty bartender someone might have turned up in time. hah.

Maybe he wouldn't've been targeted in the first place, eh?

Tell me about the two missing. They fighters?

If it hadn't been for Slevin I'd have assumed straight up revenge killing.

Emperor isn't, but he's ...odd. Not properly mortal. Very resilient. Killer might not know that of course. Nathan's a copper. Very buttoned up.

Slevin has no enemies? We've all got people who dislike us.

[Maybe that's the wrong angle, though.]

Who likes Alpha?

You were asleep for his mind control stunt, thank fuck. After that? Ned's the only reason the whole boat wasn't lining up to pull bits of him off. Ned was sure it was revenge.

Slevin's a careful lad. No enemies.

What about before that?

he's an obnoxious little cockmonkey. broke my nose the day he arrived and all I did was bring him a drink. he's not spent his time here making friends.

Hah, remind me to pull his ears back off when I see him.

[he says it in a sort of reverse psychology manner of admitting he won't fight her battles for her, but he does feel protective.]

Ned's the only thing stopping me. I had to unpick the bloody mindcontrol.

[She's kind of glad he can't see the squee on her face right now.]

I bet Ned's counting the days to graduation.
