Some direction for the weekend ...

"Fellas," Adventure Boy almost squeaks with his breaking voice in excitement and frustration, dusting off his tattered clothes in the still settling wreckage of the hotel, "I hate to be anything but a straight-shooter, but this bizness has me all in a tizzy."

"Fact is, we're a step behind the bad apples at every turn, and that's because we've been playing square with everyone - we been asking nice and making sure to wipe our feet before we goes inside." He refits the Wonder Watch, an unnecesary move since it sits with intimate familiarity against the outside curve of his arm, "So the deal is, no more mister nice guys. The more we mind our p's and q's, the more folks is gonna run a risk of gettin' hurt."

"There's a time to be lawmen, and there's a time to be mystery men." He picks up a payphone receiver, almost dropping in a nickel before he remembers his often-repeated lesson about the cost of things these days. Dialing the Conductor's line, he continues "Morimoto, Akinori, even the mutts driving his jalopy. I wanna know what they got they don't want us to see. In their houses, their offices, under their beds. We gotta track them kidnapping rats fast, too."

The line picks up, as Adventure Boy concludes "What's fishy about this don't just end with what we ain't bein' told. I been thinkin' about how the some'a these super-rats can make themselves look like - Erol? Get Erich. And everyone else?" He fixes them with a stare of youthful clarity, "Pick a target."

Adventure Boy wants you joes to pick one of our suspects or players, and tear apart their homes, temp. residences or offices for ANYthing - present or missing. And if you got a better idea, go for it?

A-Boy wants to follow Akinori's car. Hopefully, Junkheap or SOMEone has some sort of sensory abilities that might be able to follow the trail of the kidnapper's van, or failing that, at least Akinori's car.

I'm pretty sure the kidnappers are already out of town, but NOT FAR out of town, if my suspicions are correct. We'll hopefully see soon enuff.
