♣ 016 || [ filtered from Elliot - Video ]

[ Liam is particularly serious today as he waves the City's morning newspaper across the screen. ]

I don't suppose anyone's heard of any news concerning this… headhunter have you? With luck, he's left with the circus, but any news or information you may have on this is of grave importance.

Thank-you.

[ he signs off to pace and fret and worry. If Elliot were to ever find out about this… There would be no stopping him. Ever. ]

Private call to Leo and Vincent:

If you haven't checked the news, you should. It's only a matter of time before Elliot finds out.

((ooc: Volunteers from this ooc post and newcomers too for that matter. If you plotted something but forgot, feel free to assume it happened. If you still want to play it out (or just want to get involved), just chime in on the ooc post with an idea of when so we can keep track of it. I know some things were posted/played out already so, yay! Also, at work, so tags will be intermittent until tonight.))

WOOHOO!

[ Did Leo already know? ] He'll be even more difficult to contain then usual. He's already suspicious.

[dispossess]

I'll be sure that he stays out of trouble.

[haring_to_go]

[ he hesitates ] What will we do if he discovers it on his own? An acquaintance suggested bodyguards.

[dispossess]

[ He won't tell Liam that it won't be necessary. He's not about to bring more people into this. ]

Would he even put up with that?

[haring_to_go]

No, of course not. [ what do you take him for? ] We'll have to ask for discretion.

[dispossess]

To ask for it, and then to hope it's effective...

[ Even if he knows it will be, he can't keep an unhappy note out of his voice. ]

It's a shame, isn't it.

[haring_to_go]

Not my best plan, I admit, but if we work harder to uncover the right clues, it may buy us just enough time to do our work.

[ all Liam's missing is the pipe and hat and he'd be a veritable Sherlock Holmes ]

[dispossess]

Have you found any clues yet?

[haring_to_go]

Not many. I was informed, however, that such beheadings are common in the underworld here -- That's not at all reassuring, however.

[dispossess]

You could try to tell him that and see if he'd listen.
