on the way to the hospital

who: december and open
where: the park
when: mid day
December had eventually woken up, and found Mickey's note. Which...of all the things she was dealing with at the moment, that one definitely was the weirdest. Really the kicker of it all was the fact that he had signed 'always' and 'yours' and crossed them out. It was good they'd been crossed out, but it was clear that he'd intended both of them at least at some point. Which was worrying. She'd been sort of hoping he'd leave, and then he'd just never come back. That maybe he'd come to his senses, and realize that this whole diseased notion of his that he wanted to be around her would be cured.
The note definitely said otherwise. Great. And she had gotten word that her cousin had been shot. Which was also just fucking peachy. She was going to go see him today, and she was mildly entertaining the notion of bringing him something, but she couldn't really think of what. So far, nothing was coming to mind, and she was thinking she'd turn up empty handed. At least she didn't figure he'd give a shit. She was actually walking in that direction, just being sort of slow about it. She'd been told he was stable, that he'd be alright, but last time they'd talked, he'd very abruptly left. Like...mid-conversation, even. They were both bundles of issues. She didn't know who's were worse.

December,
I hated leaving, but I've got to get to work and probably shouldn't wear the same clothes two days in a row. Just don't think it's because of you.
I hope you slept well, or at least slightly better than before. I'll see you soon.
always yours soon
Mickey

Sealed With a Kiss

[Letter left for Detective McKinnon at the front desk. Contains the front page article regarding Eric Martens' arrest and a note. At the bottom is a red lipstick kiss mark.]
You didn't have to go get this guy just to impress me. Flowers would've sufficed. Insufferable points are going down. Just a little.

TIME UPDATE

It has been officially reported that Eric Martens, revealed yesterday to have confessed to being The Tyger, has been captured and taken into custody by Eidolon City Police, bringing an end to his one man campaign of murder and mayhem (see editorial on page 6). The brave officer behind the arrest is reported to be Detective Daniel McKinnon who single handedly brought the Tyger to justice. There are calls from the city elite for McKinnon's bravery to be officially recognised by the city, though there has been no official response to these calls at time of going to press.
Detective Brett Trent was shot and wounded in a fight which broke out in the notorious bar, The One More Round, last night. It is not clear what Trent was doing in the bar, but it is widely known throughout the city that the 'Round' - as it is so often known - is generally 'off limits' to Eidolon City's finest. It is possible that Trent, who has featured repeatedly in these very pages for various brave and valiant deeds, had gone in alone to aid in the fracas against rumored ECPD policy that no officer should enter the bar alone. There has been no official statement on the shooting.

Today, acclaimed singer Marian Anderson will perform at the Lincoln Memorial, having being denied the right to sing to an integrated audience at the Daughters of the American Revolution's Constitution Hall. This move another in a long line of protests against race prejudice in within our national borders and another call for full integration of all public facilities.
News Just In! We are getting the first reports that the Axis powers are once again moving to spread their plague further across Europe. It seems that, even as we go to press, invasion of Denmark and Norway is under way. Little is known about those countries' abilities to resist such an attack, but the populations are in our thoughts and in our prayers. We have confirmation that there will be a special mass held at 7pm tonight in St Peters Cathedral to pray for all those involved in the war, be they civilians or the brave soldiers willing to fight and die for the freedoms of others.

It was over.
Or, it probably wasn’t, but it felt over. Martens had been arrested, taken into custody by Danny. God, but it felt over, like things could get back to how they were meant to be. And Danny could be the hero of the hour. Brett figured the guy would probably lap that up, and even if Danny didn’t, Brett was just glad that it wasn’t him for once. Not him that had to field the press hacks and hangers on who wanted to bask in reflected - and so often false - glory.
Home Sweet Home

Who: Adelaide and Open
When: Late afternoon
Where: Little Haven
Adelaide had chosen their new house as the one Robyn had shown her. She'd slowly started to bring the girls around, show them the new place, and tell them to start moving their things to their new home. Not that they had much in the way of things, but if there were items in there it would hopefully deter others from stealing the place out from under them. And if anyone tried, Adelaide would deal with it.

If the papers were to be believed, the worst of this recent nightmare was nearly behind the city as a whole. Amelie liked to read that, to know the police were chasing down the vicious maniac who called himself the Tyger, even if they had yet to catch him. The city as a whole would be watchful, and when it was over? They could all breathe a little easier.

Emily walked as she wound back the film in its canister for extraction, looking around for other interesting places in the park to do the photo shoot. It was a nice day, people were out. After all the horrors that had taken place, people seemed finally ready to reclaim it comfortably, especially as according to that morning’s paper, the man responsible had been taken into custody. Emily certainly felt comfortable and she avoided the green near the church as she went, not paying much mind to where she was going that she bumped into a gentleman and nearly dropped her camera. “Sorry,” she apologized. Emily did that, bumping into people. Wouldn’t her aunts be annoyed with her clumsiness.

(briefly nsfw)
He’d tried to stay away. Maybe what Eily had said was right, maybe it was a bad idea, but he’d thought about it all day, even when there were other distractions, reading the articles in the paper over and over again had him too worried about her to leave it alone. Knowing that he’d spoken with the Tyger was unsettling enough, knowing he’d killed again... Mickey knew well enough that there was a small window to get to December before she shut down for good and he couldn’t miss that.

Madeline looked at the note in her hands, blood draining from her face as she read the contents. She hadn’t meant to leave the painting in the store room but she had and now someone had found it.

Who: Danny and Eric
Where: Fontaine Park
When: Evening
It was over, but Eric had thought it’d feel different. He’d been on the move all day now, flitting between derelict buildings in the Sprawl, alleys around the city, even spending a hunk of time under the Sixth Street bridge, and Eric had hoped to see more on his last day of freedom. He’d been disappointed there, though, knowing that the ripples of his work would need more than a day before their effects would show. And frankly, while he could’ve kept ahead of the cops to see those ripples? Eric was tired.

It hadn’t been the easiest of days for Mickey. He hadn’t slept well, having thought too hard on what he’d talked to Eily about, which boiled down to December over and over again. There was no way out of it, not just waiting for her to not shut him out for life. And Mickey hated that.

Danny wasn’t quite hungover, but he had followed up the interaction with more booze from home. Even now his coffee was slightly spiked to take the edge off and he was forcing himself to not think about Rachel as he tried to focus on the words on the newspaper page and not how angry she’d gotten with him for no good reason. It seemed ridiculous, but he wasn’t going looking for her to ask. Didn’t matter that much. Until he found her dead.
