[Officer Grady has been seen patrolling the streets the past few days, but today, you seem to be running into him even more frequently.

In fact, at some point in the day, Grady will be knocking on the door of many of the houses in town. If you choose to answer, the two of you might just have a pleasant conversation.]

[NB: Anyone may reply to this ( Read more... )

[Theta has gotten into the habit of answering the door while she's at Albedo's. Though she leans heavily on her cane, she doesn't have that much trouble getting around as long as she stays on the ground floor. Her eyes go wide and she takes a deep breath...and then she goes into actress mode and gives him a bright and cheery smile.]

How can I help you?

Ye' can help, ma'am, by tellin' me if you've seen anyone suspicious runnin' round here.

[Theta really wants to get this over with and send him on his way, but...the prospect of getting some information sounds really good to her. She has to take a moment to weigh her options, but that action in and of itself seals her decision. With a cautious look around the street past the man on the doorstep, she nods her head quietly.]

Won't you come in, Officer? I'll...make you a cup of tea and gather my thoughts...I... [Now committed to acting, she glances around even more mock-nervously.]

I'm being silly since you do such a good job keeping this the safest town in America, but I can't help but be afraid...I'd rather you came in. ...Who knows what might be listening...

*Albedo had a habit of eavesdropping that was sometimes annoying, but now left him the annoyed one. Another annoying habit he had was of sneaking up on people, which meant his footsteps were practically inaudible as he approached the police officer.* Rather ungrateful to threaten someone being so cooperative, you know.

I had meant to make sure no one -else- overheard what I had to say... [Her tone hardens when she hears she's got Albedo backing her up. She leans back against him in a way very inappropriate for a woman not his "wife".]

I spotted your communist.

There's no point. He teleports.

*He puts a hand on Theta's shoulder in a distinctly possessive way.* Maybe we'd have better luck figuring out what he was up to if we knew more about him.

Maybe ye would. But ye won't. Thanks for tellin' me what I already know. Useless.

[And he's moving on.]
