Posted myself, the plot thickens (I think/hope)! Come on, don't be shy people!

[RBYDark]

And realized I somehow missed a post. Whoops. Tried to edit to acknowledge it. Sorry about that.

@RBYDark

Oh man I'm so glad you noticed that-I was to shy to say anything lol.

@ONL

Also wanted to ask you guys (RBY and ONL) would you like me to wait a bit before throwin another post up? I know you guys said we aren't necessarily sticking to an order but I was also pretty sure a good chunk of people hadn't posted yet (not positive on that though.) For now I'll start writing something up tonight and throw it up/keep it in my pocket dependin on what yall say.

[T Risket]

What an undisciplined bafoon, must be a private investigator of some sorts...filthy Marxist...

@ONL

Cracked me up

[RBYDark]

@T Risket Again, I apologize. I shoulda copied and refreshed before posting. In the future, please, don't feel shy about letting me know.

I'd say for now, hold onto the post? There were a few people, I believe, headed towards the university.

@RBYDark

Allright, sounds good to me man

[BurningCold]

Just a heads up that I am indeed still here but John is just sorta chilling in his shop atm. Having him leave under the circumstances would be out of character for him and I don't want to like, post a montage of him selling licorice flavored gum and soda.

[T Risket]

@BurningCold

Talk about an epic montage lol.
-
Anyways guys, as I write this I am like....very drunk, like alot. Gonna throw up the drunkin ramblings of what I hope will be my next post though (with maybe some sober tweeking)

Mainly I just wana post this so my dumbass don't lose it/can get shot down.

WIP

In a rather surprisingly efficient manner Professor Dupree and August had dispersed the crowd of gawkers: the combination of his shear intimidating figure mixed with Duprees' authority as a doctor having had little trouble getting rid of the crowd that mostly consisted of students. He was rather pleased to see that they had in fact kept anyone from disturbing the ever growing pool of blood surrounding the unrecognizable pile of remains that was Dr. Atkins-not that it really mattered, he quickly reminded himself. He was extremely certain that this would just be outright ruled as a suicide by the authorities. None the less August though he'd done his damnedest to preserve the scene as best he could for the boys in blue.

"I didn't catch your name, but you're with the police, or were at some point I take it?"

“I was-but that was an entire war ago friend. These days I just...well, I get by. I'm actually in town looking for my niece. Perhaps you've heard of her Dr.? I don't mean to make light of the situation at hand-” Without skipping a beat or glancing at the shattered remnants of Dr. Atkins August went on to lie with the kind of face that one could only aquire from years of practice; which is to say his helpful yet inquisitive demeanor remained as unchanged as the tired look on his face. “-But I am actually in town for a specific reason. I am trying to find my niece Faye Desdemona. My sister, her mother, told me she attends school here but...well...I'm no detective you see? In truth I was just going to inquire as to where her whereabouts were with your main office when I stumbled upon this...gruesome scene. Needless to say the old part of me that is, as you so brilliantly dedeuced a cop, couldn't help but stop in an effort to help.” August paused here, his massive frame catching his breathe for a brief moment before his deep voice bellowed on. “So here I am, Doctors.” He traced his gaze between Dupree and Steiner in an attempt to make the former man not feel left out.

Edit:: seriously passin out here though, gonna hit the hay

[Sigurd]

Having internet problems. I should be able to post tomorrow.

[BurningCold]

Whoops, just realized @ONL's character interacted with John, I'll have a post up sometime.

[T Risket]

Allrighty-I got a post ready to shoot up whenever is good (August responds to Steiner). Just leme know when its all good or if anyone would like to see it in the ooc.

I feel like I should say something else here but can't think of anything lol.

[ONL]

@BurningCold I was wondering why you wouldn't talk with him :P I mean what wrong has he done? Well except buying sandwiches which he hasn't payed..oops?

@RBYDark I agree that we should let those who haven't posted yet get the chance, but we might "kill our darlings" so to say; if they don't show up, we can't wait forever for them. It's harsh, I know, but everyone else is here and ready, and we got to take them into consideration as well.

@T Risket Well we could always talk about the weather, that's a winner right there! Or we can talk about who we are and what we do for a living? Me for my own sake, don't to anything except studying and roleplaying these days.

@ONL

You have a point. The two who haven't posted, they can be introduced later; those who haven't interacted, I'll work on an NPC or even cameo Amanda early to later justify her interest if she proves necessary.

As for stuff to discuss, behold, a collection of Lovecraft's stories. For everyone who said they hadn't been able to read his stuff.

@RBYDark

If your feeling particularly lazy a good number of his books (audio form) are rather easy to find on youtube.

Edit- *Fighting urge to post* My level of self control is astounding!

[ONL]

@T Risket Say that when you stand face-to-face with Cthulhu himself, then I'll be impressed, haha!

[Sigurd]

I will have a post up today. Goddamned internet and exams are still giving me a lot of troubles.

EDIT
Okay, I've made a small post.

I apologize if I'm shitty content-wise. I am doing my best with the limited time and internet access I have. Better something than nothing, right?

[T Risket]

just wanted to remind yall i got a post ready to throw up whenever

[RBYDark]

We've had a few posts so I suppose it can go up now.

[T Risket]

Woot! Posted!

[RBYDark]

Awesome, will try to respond tomorrow.
