Is having teen girls executed a hobby of yours, or is this the first time?

[corporeity]

[ several hours later. ]

I’m sorry, Misty.
You may blame me wholly and without reservation, as the one who prepared Ren with the game’s clues, which ultimately damned your Shauna.

I hope we can work together to find the person responsible for her death. I understand if we cannot.

[transponders]

I'd be doing that with or without permission, Gale.

I want to find them. I swear to you. If nobody trusts me because I tried to hard to keep a girl's head attached - fine. But that can be used.

[corporeity]

All right.

Tell me anything you would have me assist with. I have never doubted your desire to protect the girls, if nothing else.

I’m organising an investigation into the the burnings with the other magic users. It appears August was certainly not the Alpha, even if he was a wolf. [ unconvinced, based on the maths. ] I can be at your service after that.

[transponders]

With the other magic users? You mean the ones who did it?

[corporeity]

We cannot all have done, mathematically speaking, and so we improve our investigations — and guard against tampering — by including all.

[transponders]

Let me know when you're done. I want the alpha. And if he doesn't get locked up, I'll come for his head when it's done.

So we find him now, it'll be a lot cleaner.

rewriting the timeline bc i didn’t know he was on head duty 🙃

[corporeity]

[ this is now early morning of the murders because it had to be. no further questions. ]

The investigations are delayed. I’ve made a detour.
And I’ve ah
I’ve found her head.

Would you like to examine it with Goodsir, as an additional medical professional, and any you trust, in the first instance?

Stephen and others worked together to reassemble the bodies, in the previous round, so the rest of their loved ones needn’t look at them this way. I could ask it of him again, but I defer to you in this.

[transponders]

[ None at this time, your honor. ]

Where?

Harry and I will deal with it.

Stephen doesn't touch her.

[corporeity]

All right. I’ve told no other and will tell no other.

It appears she was delivered by the Alpha to Ren, the same as Saber was to Ani. On a plate, at the foot of her bed to prevent a trail, with another message carved into her skin: BAD BITCH.

I’ve had Ren and her housemates leave. I’ll let you in myself.

[transponders]

I'll be right there.

[corporeity]

Very well.
You should know it was Ren’s wish that I go to you, even as she trembled. She did not want for Shauna’s death, only for the bloodshed to stop.

[ it will not be enough to earn the girls’ forgiveness, but then, that isn’t the point of true sorrow and regret. ]
