Thirty-Five Cardinals

[modern_truths]

This is pure madness. You've all become mindless, paranoid fanatics hiding behind masks of righteousness and faith, using any foul means available to convict innocent men and women. You're hunting your neighbors, your friends, your very family. Are you all so eager to watch your loved ones burn? Fools.

I have taken an oath to uphold the law, the

Finally. Somone with half a brain.

[patrolling himself, sneaking around sabatauging the various execution platforms] What say you give me a hand here?

[unknownandi]

Aw, now look what you did.

You realize that as clear sympathizers with the witches, we're going to have to take you in. And you'll confess, right? Otherwise, I'm afraid we may have to resort to torture. It's for your own good -- I think it's supposed to be good for the soul.

Just come along peacefully. It might make it easier. Or not. [entirely too cheerful about this, and still no weapons drawn, on even on his person]

[prince_ripper]

[ schlick of a handful of his knives being spread ]

But, we don't mind much if you don't come along peacefully.

The prince will take your blood any way you give it to him.

[slightly_knurd]

[not nearly concerned with all the smiles, as he's seen that sort of happy madness befpre, and insteads steadies himself in a defensive stance, ready to fight]

That so? Well, as much as I hate disappointing you two fine men, let me remind you of an old motto we have in the Watch. And that's "Fabricati Diem, Pvnc"

....

"Make my day, punk". [eyes Crane out of the corner of his eye, observing his pistol with a hint of distaste; however, now is not exactly the time to argue]

[modern_truths]

*feels Katrina's book in his breast pocket and feels a bit more at ease*

...

*eyes narrow*

Then if you want my blood, you will have to work for it, monster.

[offthepigs]

I hope to fuck you're not calling me a monster, limpdick.

[unknownandi]

Monster? I'm supposed to be a witch-hunter today, though. Or, you mean Prince-y, maybe?.

Ah, and it looks like we have more company. I wonder what kind it is!

[prince_ripper]

I dunno. He looks pretty human to me. Unless he's a witch, too~

[slightly_knurd]

[turns a suspicious look to the new arrival, before turning back towards the two attackers, edging closer to Crane]

And who's to say witching's a bad thing? The way I see it, you two are a lot closer to evil than any witch could ever get. Get lost, the both of you!

[modern_truths]

*resists the urge to groan at the sight of Raoul; turns his attention back to X and Belphegor*

We've nothing to confess to, and no intention of going with you. Your efforts are in vain and laughably foolish; leave now if you have any common sense.

[offthepigs]

[The man can see when he's not wanted, but does enjoy ruining Ichabod's life. He votes for staying.]

Don't ignore me, shit-wit.

[m1a1_love]

"OI, PISSFACES AND QUEERMOS! QUE PASA AND SHIT?" Says Tank, coming up from the other side of the street. She doesn't really recognize any of these people - she's pretty sure she insinuated the guy dressed like he was out of victorian times was gay, and rightly so, but she didn't have any names, except that was Raoul Duke over there. And hey, not passing up on a chance to hang with Raoul Duke.

She's pretty clearly armed to the teeth. This seems to be her normal attire anyway.

[unknownandi]

Oh, bad language too. I think that's another sin.

[X doesn't like how the group is starting to grow -- he would have no problems with it if they were all human. But it's sometimes hard to tell in this city who is and who isn't.]

[prince_ripper]

Very naughty.

[ nodding and shifting so he gets a better look at the gathered group ]

A lot of witches to bring in. I wonder if there are enough fires.

[slightly_knurd]

[amused look to Tank Girl, turning back to their attackers]

And how long until you're drawn in? Until they start turning on their own? I've seen it happen. Your groups aren't ever stable, gents. They'll fall and crumble within days.

[modern_truths]

The paranoia that is ripping this City apart will go on, and do not think that you will be spared from it.
