An ancient vampire hunter. It was one of many developments.

I survive and return. I'm back in Mystic Falls now. Damon's the one missing. A siren has him.

[holyposition]

A siren. Singing to sailors, siren?

[interpersonally]

As far as I've experienced, men. She just rewired my brother's brain and inserted herself in important memories of the love of his life.

[holyposition]

I don't mean to make light of it, because that sounds serious. But your world sounds like a nightmare, Stefan.

[interpersonally]

It's not always. You find the moments where you can.

But, being supernatural, that can make it harder.

[holyposition]

I think I'm happy just being a man.

Soccer girl came through again on Castiel. The hammer matches the fleshworkers'. Another strike against Armand.

[interpersonally]

Can a fleshworker's hammer be taken and used? Or did it only work in a fleshworker's hand?

[holyposition]

I don't know how well the tools are locked up. I guess it's possible. But the answer it looks like is usually the right one.

[interpersonally]

Not always, Tim.

[holyposition]

You're right, not always. But it's where we should start.

[interpersonally]

Thank you, for keeping me apprised.

Seriously. Stay away from Kai Parker.

[holyposition]

Thanks to you too.

I will. Promise.

[holyposition]

Can you tell me where the tip about Giles being killed by a diamond came from?

It seems suspicious theyre the only team implicated so far, right?

[interpersonally]

I think it was in our Clubs Chat. I'd have to find it again.

Or, they're the only members of the wolves to possibly be caught. Maybe they were sloppier than the other kills.

Homelander was probably killed in one swipe. Paul was held in place.

[holyposition]

I need to know if it’s trustworthy.

And Will was caught by surprise.

[interpersonally]

Neon Tetra @ n He's in the Clubs. But, he says he can't guarantee the source is credible. He overheard it in the dispersing crowd.

How was he killed again?

[holyposition]

A knife in the gut. I looked at the scene, but theres nothing but the blood puddle. No struggle, nothing broken, no anything. It was quick.

[interpersonally]

Another body compelled to stay put?

[holyposition]

I think it was more like one good stab put him out fast.

Um, not the guy. You know what I mean

[interpersonally]

Yes, I know what you mean. He was surprised, and stabbed. And bled out like that.

[holyposition]

He's a friend of Harry's, I want to help him find who did it. But it's so...general. Feels like anyone could have.

[interpersonally]

Then it may have to wait until next round.

next round!

[holyposition]

I know several people collaborating on a case against August. He seems to be cooperating.

What about you?

[interpersonally]

I have two people I trust and I have a few people I can compare notes with.

To be honest, I'm staying quiet and reading everything. I can see how the case against August would be building and from what Ren said, about Shauna.

In our other Saltburnt she was basically running a cult. I suspect the same could be said for this. Our life imitated our lives to an extent. But, I have no evidence, not like what's been presented.

I know different people beheaded all the victims, but they were all cauterized, likely by the same individual or under that person's eye.

I wonder if the alpha isn't just pushing the wolves but influencing their minds. Or, if it's only the werewolf curse itself that does that.

Many of the players this round have been keeping things more insular, so I don't have as much insight as I thought I did in the first round. I also think a lot of misinformation was thrown during the first round.

[holyposition]

I want to be able to work with you. Call it leftover delusion from Italian month, but I trust you.

Some of the heads were ripped off. Koby’s was. It was all uneven, so if they were cauterized with a tool, there would be missed spots, or uneven burn marks. But there weren’t, it was clean and even. It had to be supernatural.

I think August is the alpha. He’s the one involved in magic and rituals, so they followed his lead. There’s sigils and whatnot all over the table they were posed at.

Misinformation and distractions. I understand why the vampires are insular, after last time. I think every single one of them had been accused at one point. That one of them really did do it seemed more like luck than anything else. But the fact that they were all compelled without a fight is concerning.
