Fourteenth Act // [Video] - No longer we'll sing through the day, of the lives we lost and reclaimed

[featherdrequiem.livejournal.com]

[Kuja appears on the feed, tossing his hair over his shoulder and making a melodramatic sigh. Everything going on this week was ridiculous. Normally he enjoyed a bit of chaos for the sake of entertainment, but.. this was nothing short of a droll performance with over-rated actors and actresses who hadn't a clue what they were doing.]

Has it occurred to none of you fools that, perchance if you'd asked for my assistance, I could have saved all those who have died so far? You would have had your answers. You ask for anyone with information to come forward - How about you simpletons all swallow that damn pride and talk to one another? You're beginning to make me doubt your supposed intelligence. Or shall I continue insulting what little you all seem to possess between you? 

Too many cooks spoil the broth and that's apparent here. Your petty pride complexes are making this entire 'case' counter productive and making things easier for the killer to strike again. Why else did Sheldon and Oz unnecessarily die? Because you weren't quick enough to work together after the first death.  Your incompetence is nothing short of unspeakable.

[The feed cuts out.]

[Snort.]

Sounds as if you're having some trouble.

Hmm? [Oh it was him.]

Not in the slightest, I just can't find amusement from watching simpletons prance around trying to enforce order upon obvious chaos. It's as though they're not even trying.

Are you surprised?

[inabaidolrise.livejournal.com]

I don't even understand what they are doing. There all over the place about this.

So I think I'll agree with you with this that they aren't doing a very good job.

[featherdrequiem.livejournal.com]

Ah, it seems that there is intelligence amongst the ranks of this lack luster show.

I'll wait until they slip up once more. Then perhaps we should pass judgement upon then?

[inabaidolrise.livejournal.com]

I think after this we all should have a say about this event.

So as you said it would be like passing judgement.

Onesan, catching a serial killer can take a while-- and it's really chaotic because there have been four deaths in as many days- a body every day this week and they have to examine all the crimes scenes so it only looks like they're running all over the place.

[inabaidolrise.livejournal.com]

I understand it can take a while. But slow and steady wins the race in the end, so what I've been seeing is something that looks rushed and confusing, but that could just be me.

Though I understand the need to want to catch a killer as soon as possible. I truly do, but do take things slow and talk about it with the others to show notes and talk about possible plans. Teamwork is usually key I believe.

So they lag behind on everything else already, what else is new?

[featherdrequiem.livejournal.com]

If they really call themselves detectives then surely they should be more efficient. If we can't rely on this 'policing force' then who can we rely upon but ourselves?

If we do so they pass judgement upon us. We cannot win either way.

Gee, I wonder why they never asked you to fix all our problems mister "I can fix everything with a wave of my hand?" Maybe they just didn't know to ask you, did you ever think of that? That's assuming you actually can do anything other than whine.

[text]

[featherdrequiem.livejournal.com]

No, I'm quite sure they know. Especially after I tried to even out Patchwork quilt boy's face. He knows what I'm capable of and it's pride that holds him back.

Whining? No. Simply stating that the detectives aren't capable of anything. I could care less for this all. It's like watching a train wreck on a glitched loop. There's no entertainment to be drawn from any of this.

[She is trying so hard to remain polite. The tone is steady, controlled, yet obviously forced.]

Sir, rather than just complaining, if you would like to help out, you could have just responded to one of their posts. Everyone's cooperation is necessary, including yours. Had you responded, had you made your presence and abilities known, we would have certainly welcomed your aid.

We ask for anyone with information to come forward precisely so that we CAN talk to one another and bounce ideas off each other. This is not a matter of pride. We choose not to bother those who have no concern for the case. Do you [fucking] understand?

[Audio]

[featherdrequiem.livejournal.com]

[He hears that and just snorts.]

They know exactly what I'm capable of. Though to be honest, the way I've been treated in the past, I'm not sure that I see much of a reason for me to help them with their failing investigation. You see when you can destroy planets with a single utterance, it gives you stigma from those who like to believe they're in control.

Have you ever heard the story of the boy who caught lightning? Perhaps that would shed some light upon the status quo of this situation.

Perhaps I understand it more objectively than you, madam. I've watched the way many of these detectives have worked since I arrived here nearly 6 months ago. None of them trust one another, they're all just trying to look better than the rest. That's the only reason that they care for any of the people who've died. Your reasonings I can't say. But their's I know for definite.

[Voice]

[stalking_horse]

Who said we had to communicate publicly, on the network, where the person committing these killings would see everything we were working on?

I may not reply; I'm a bit busy for a great deal of chatter that isn't actually constructively working on finding out who and where this individual is.

If you do know something that would be useful, then by all means, please, enlighten us - even in private, if you wish - I'd like to not trip over another body, particularly not someone else I know. [He's controlling his tone pretty well for how ... frayed and tired the undertones are, and at the end there's bits of a held-back snarky snarl creeping in.]

[Voice]

[featherdrequiem.livejournal.com]

I'm sure if he's managed to elude you all so far it doesn't matter if you pulicise your prattlings or not. Having personal experience in fanning the flames of chaos - undoubtedly this entire animalistic frenzy that's going on is exactly what he wants. But then I'm sure you all knew that.

Allow me to shed a tear for your sad story. I'm sure we all have something to mourn from the past two days. A friend of yours and my ability to care.

Really, if you want to catch his attention then you need to start turning the tables on him and take advantage of the precarious situation he's got us in. Turn his methods against him.

[raised eyebrows and impressed applause]

[He gives a bow.]

Is there anything that you feel I may have missed from my monologue?

[always1truth.livejournal.com]

Have you ever heard the expression 'looks can be deceiving'?

[featherdrequiem.livejournal.com]

Of course. Though I'm not sure you can hide behind that excuse in this case, little boy.

[abluechild.livejournal.com]

Or maybe-just maybe they didn't know you could do that. Idiot. Maybe you should have said something.

And don't you dare call the detectives incompetent. One of them happens to my friend, ass hole. And I know he's lot more intelligent then you could ever hope to be. Just because you don't have the full story doesn't mean you can fill in the rest with whatever bullshit you feel like.

They are doing their best right now and they do this for a living. None of them would have successfully solved cases if they were incompetent. So shut the fuck up and leave them alone.

Despite whatever the hell you think, They do know what they're doing.

Are you quite done with your wretched barking you silly little girl? I have better things to deal with your incessant bitching. I could care less if he's one of your friends.

[stalking_horse]

Nakamori-san?

I appreciate your support, but the unfortunate truth is, this is something I should be used to - I shouldn't have lost my temper myself; this is what always happens every single serial killer case I've ever worked... no matter what you're doing, it's never enough, fast enough, for the people who talk the loudest.

Starting arguments will honestly only make things worse, encourage more bickering, and make our lives harder.

[kingroadie.livejournal.com]

Sounds like you put the detectives on the defensive side Kuja, keep it up and they'll bitch at you as much as they did at me.

[featherdrequiem.livejournal.com]

Hmph. They can make as many excuses as they like. The more they do, the more it proves my point.
