003 -- [Written/Action]

[Dead bodies aren't the nicest things to wake up to. And go a long way to make Longshot wonder how the hell he slept through one being strung up in the house he was staying it. Between that and seeing Martel dead over the journals, he's decided that the Welcome Center probably isn't a safe place to be anymore. Moving out immediately.]

I'm on my way.

[He was really hoping he wouldn't have to stick around here]

Do you know who he is?

[Voice/Action]

[eidolon_soul]

It sounds familiar, but I'm not sure....

[And Rydia enters a moment later, having teleported just outside.]

[He was not expecting anyone that soon. Rydia's sudden entrance has him instantly on guard and he starts reaching for an arrow. He stops when he recognizes this was the person he was just talking to over the journals though.]

[As for Skeik, Longshot hasn't touched him. He fired an arrow at the bandages hanging the man up to get him down because it seemed wrong just to leave him like that, but besides that he's left him alone.]

[Rydia tried to prepare herself for the sight, but she still pales upon spotting the body. She doesn't step too close to it, not yet. Instead, she looks at the one who alerted her.]

I...don't know him, but I've seen him around. Someone around here ought to know his name.

[A sigh.]

I'm Rydia, one of the volunteers...but I haven't been in for a few days. Can you tell me anything about this, other than what you wrote?

[Longshot thinks about it for a moment, but then shakes his head. He didn't hear a thing, and that's what has him so anxious to leave here.]

[Rydia frowns, though it's not directed at him. That just wasn't what she was hoping to hear.]

Someone should have seen this....

[Frustrated.]

What's your name? In case someone needs to compare details.

...there's been other murders.

[He knows - he saw Martel over the journals, anyways.]

Longshot.

[Action]

[eidolon_soul]

Thank you, Longshot.

[She sighs and stares at the body.]

They'll probably pick him up soon, so there's no reason for you to stay if you don't want to.

[Good, because he thinks he might wind up ill if he stays here much longer. Longshot nods, a silent thank you. Then he turns to go back to the room he was staying in to pick up what few possessions he might have been keeping there]
