prologue, post-investigation

[alchemenace]

[ it's luck (convenient pc writing) that varian runs into steph near the dorms after the investigation. he looks like he might be sick. hm. he does try to weakly greet her tho. ]

-- Stephanie. Hey. I--I, uh, I'm glad you're alright.

[ unlike. gi-gan. yike ]

In that case, I think I could handle being Batgirl's padawan.

[vigilantics]

I can already tell this is going to go beautifully.

[alchemenace]

I'm choosing to interpret that as sincerity.

[ and since someone has to bring the mood back down ]

... Do you think we'll figure out who did it tomorrow?

[vigilantics]

We have to.

[ they couldn't stop the murder from happening, but they can find out who did it. ]

We at least have some things to work with.

[alchemenace]

Right. There's got to be something that incriminates the-- the killer, somewhere in everything we found.

[vigilantics]

We didn't really have any time to look at all the stuff that was found. I hope we can check it out tomorrow.

[alchemenace]

We should. That, um, that is what trials are for, right?

[ generally ]

[vigilantics]

[ she

does not trust these fucks

but steph nods anyway. ]

I hope so. Do you think we'll have any equipment?

[alchemenace]

Honestly, going by the equipment this castle offers in general? I would not count on it.

[ he just wants... to do a science ]

[vigilantics]

Just for once I would like things to be easy.

[alchemenace]

Oh, believe me, I, uh, I am feeling you there. [ life's hard. ] We're going to have to... make do with what we can.

[vigilantics]

Mm. We have a lot of different people with different experiences, so I'm sure we can manage this.
