007 [Dictated]

[youfallback]

[Ira Tower]

Evacuations are starting. I'll be by to check with each of you.

[/Ira Tower]

[Her voice just isn't as forceful and sure as it usually is,] Maine's gone.

Comments

[Carolina] Placeholder

[encryptedlock]

...Did he die from the bite?

[York hadn't heard of anyone else dying yet, but....]

[York]

[youfallback]

His nameplate's gone and he's not in my room.

[Carolina]

[encryptedlock]

Oh.

--Wait, seriously? I know it's not a good time, but have you done a full sweep of the castle to make sure it didn't just move him to another room?

[York]

[youfallback]

I'm doing so after I check on the other residents of the tower. Wash said Maine's equipment disappeared with no sign of anyone stealing it on his surveillance.

[Carolina]

[encryptedlock]

All right. I'm outside the main entrance making sure nothing small and black and blobby gets out. DO you need any help with the evac?

York

[youfallback]

No, I've got it covered.

[She pauses briefly, before,] Don't disappear and don't get bitten.

[Carolina]

[encryptedlock]

Roger to all of that. We can do a sweep and patrol for the things at the same time once the tower is clear.

York

[youfallback]

Copy that. Keep me updated.

Carolina

[encryptedlock]

You got it.

[It's too early to hope that Maine is really gone, after all.]

York

[youfallback]

[A bit stiffly,] Wash also wanted me to tell you 'welcome back.'

Carolina

[encryptedlock]

Boy, he's jumping the gun a little early. Besides, he can tell me that himself if we can confirm this.

York

[youfallback]

I'll search every corner of the Castle including Insolitus after the current situation is taken care of.

[dontpatr0nizeme]

Any equipment I had of his is gone, Carolina. So I can safely confirm it. No one was on camera to remove it. No disruptions of the security.

It just vanished.

Tell York he can come home to the castle.

[youfallback]

Understood.

[Washington]

Thank you, for all your work.

[Carolina]

[dontpatr0nizeme]

I did what I had to. No thanks needed.

In some ways, this may be for the best, as much as I hate to admit it.

Washington

[youfallback]

Not necessarily.

Carolina

[dontpatr0nizeme]

He was ripping apart what little team you had here, Carolina.

And I'm not pleased at finding out through my security cameras he was pumping for information while under the influence.

Washington

[youfallback]

He wasn't ripping the team apart, the Castle was.

He was what?

Carolina

[dontpatr0nizeme]

He was the bone of contention.

I have video of Maine using me being drunk to get information I would have never shared sober, Carolina.

Washington

[youfallback]

It wasn't his fault.

I'd like to watch it, Washington.

Maine

[dontpatr0nizeme]

I don't blame him. But at the same time, it makes it easier.

... York would kill me.

Washington (I think you meant Carolina :39)

[youfallback]

Easier isn't better.

Wash. I'm going to watch it.

Carolina (Shoot me. I had 3 hours sleep)

[dontpatr0nizeme]

I know. But we can't bring him back.

No, you aren't. There are things in there that you don't need to find out that way.

[wizard_redfive]

[Dairine is a bit busy at the moment, but a note can be found taped to the door of Room 2113.]

Out helping the others fight this. Don’t worry; will leave if shield in danger of failing.

Stay safe.

-Dairine C.

[youfallback]

[Carolina will eventually leave a response, herself, on a second piece of paper just below, should Dairine return.]

If needed, move to the lobby. There's several of my crew there defending the premise.
