Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:01:49 AM)
Well - maybe it was all that succubus talk - but some reports from guys... they went home with a girl. In two cases a hooker - but, well, apparently once they got in bed the girls all got... aggressive, beyond the point of any reasonable consent.

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:02:27 AM)
One case of female-on-male is rare. Three in a week?

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 12:02:38 AM)
::she raises a brow:: Same female..?

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:02:44 AM)
Different women.

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 12:02:58 AM)
Possession?

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 12:03:31 AM)
You said the people he sent ya to talk to are voodoo types.. don't they believe in possession? From loas or devils or whatever..

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:04:07 AM)
They do - which might be something we're looking at.

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 12:06:26 AM)
::she pauses:: Have the men been questioned? Can they describe the women?

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:07:05 AM)
I've got the reports... I didn't track the men down yet. But different women...

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 12:09:36 AM)
::she nods:: How... do you work on that? Will you be the one interrogating?

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 12:11:14 AM)
*eats and listens.. as police procedure isn't something she's real solid on*

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:11:18 AM)
I might talk to the officers, first.... *She rubs the back of her neck* Given my job, tracking them down gets a bit delicate....

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 12:12:25 AM)
::she nods to her:: So... what do we do from here? ::also unfamiliar with how the police did this::

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:13:20 AM)
I might tail the women. I'm actually less interested in the men...

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 12:14:35 AM)
Is there an ID on the women? A positive one?

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:15:54 AM)
((ummm....))

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 12:17:17 AM)
(lol)

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 12:18:01 AM)
((Right.. response lag due to missing ST. Check.))

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 12:18:17 AM)
(it's fine, we're waiting patiently)

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:18:54 AM)
*She blinks* Wait. Wait.....

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:19:55 AM)
Now I know why it bugged me. I don't think it was... no. The descriptions of what they did...

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 12:20:59 AM)
::she pauses, waiting for the descriptions::

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 12:21:19 AM)
*swivels her head around sideways owlishly as she listens*

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:21:40 AM)
It isn't the women. Or at least, the women didn't do what they were accused of. The -actions- were the saem in all three. Some of the details... Digging the nails in, forcing them down... it's the same spirit. Same thing, they just saw it!

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 12:22:42 AM)
So.... they... were possessed...?

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:23:21 AM)
I don't think so. When you're caught in that dream, that's what you see - I think the men were afflicted.

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 12:24:01 AM)
So.. the men were afflicted by the spirit.. and thought the women were doing those things?

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 12:25:48 AM)
That's what it sounds like. *nodding a bit* Wow.. can you imagine the -second- date?

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:25:59 AM)
*nods* Exactly. Apparently, there was a reason they bugged me.

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:26:07 AM)
Probably not very good...

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 12:27:31 AM)
::she nods and shakes her head:: Was there any connection between the men themselves?

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:28:23 AM)
Mm... *She frowns*

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:30:16 AM)
No, Nothing particular - but no women reporting anything similar.

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:33:33 AM)
I wish - no, there was one women with the sleepiness and nightmares. I sort of overheard a conversation...

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 12:35:09 AM)
What did you hear?

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:36:12 AM)
Two clerks at a store. One was tired - bone tired, and dreading sleep, that was my read... and a missing co worker, who'd been siffering night terrors. A "Rita" - so that's at least one female.

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 12:38:12 AM)
Night terrors... not very common in adults...

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:39:31 AM)
Exactly. So at least one woman. Nothing has happened to you guys yet, has it?

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 12:39:53 AM)
*looks around* Um.. like what? *a bite still on her fork..utterly distracted*

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:40:04 AM)
Nightmares?

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 12:40:17 AM)
::she raises a brow, then shakes her head:: No... I haven't. ::eyes moving to Cas::

Voice in the air (Jan 16, 2011 12:42:21 AM)
First Cas had felt it, then the others. The slight caress of air movement near them. Though Cas is again the first to hear or feel anything... (ic pm)

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 12:42:27 AM)
Nope. I sleep like a trainwreck. Blankets everywhere..limbs akimbo..but at an unarguable complete stop..

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 12:43:13 AM)
*rubs at her cheek and puts her fork down, trying to focus so she can get a read on it once it's happened a second time*

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 12:43:28 AM)
::Ais' eyes move to Cas, raising a brow::

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 12:43:30 AM)
*and JUMPS off the chair*

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 12:44:11 AM)
*orange eyes wild, she backs up to put a wall on her back* Something's in here...

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:44:39 AM)
Cas? *She looks around*

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 12:44:48 AM)
::she pauses, before she's out of her chair, her voice a bit more strained, but calm:: Can you describe the something.... ? ::fork laid on the table::

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 12:47:55 AM)
Nooo.. *dubious now..keeping her back to the wall carefully, she's clearly unnerved* Something touched me.

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 12:48:06 AM)
But I can't see anything in here but us.

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 12:48:47 AM)
(okies.... green ST, Ais is going to spirit/life scan)

Voice in the air (Jan 16, 2011 12:49:14 AM)
(roll away)

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:49:33 AM)
*She hesitates, then holds out her hand towards Cas* May I?

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 12:50:10 AM)
It's not touching me right now.. just felt like fingernails up my spine.. *but offers her hand to Isabel all the same*

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 12:50:11 AM)
(2 sux on spirit scan, 3 on lifescan)

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:51:19 AM)
*She squeezes Cas' hand reassuringly, then closes her eyes* ((3 suxx!))

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 12:53:22 AM)
I thought.. before that happened.. that something was brushing my cheek. *her back pressed to the wall instinctively..Ais would know she's not -freaking out- just yet..but she's wary*

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 12:54:29 AM)
*She shivers* Well, we are nosing around a spirit, right? Hello there, Chauchemar.

::whispering softly:: It's -everywhere-.... and it is also touching me... a vague threat.... ::fingers still at her throat::

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 1:01:01 AM)
Umm..Ais.. -You- are touching you.

Voice in the air (Jan 16, 2011 1:01:32 AM)
Theres a delicious series of laughter within the air. The three woman feel air blown against their ears as though its speaking right into them, and then hands moving to take each of them around their jawline, not their throats, but at any one point theres this overwhelming sense that it strangle them all. "Ahh, awakened pretties... you will sleep, you all sleep sometime. Then I will play!"

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 1:01:50 AM)
I can feel it... on my throat... mine is more of a reaction... like trying to grasp air. ::Ais frowns::

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 1:03:57 AM)
*She jerks her head from side to side, grimacing* Whatever, you.

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 1:05:17 AM)
*closes her eyes, then since she's backed up against the wall..she tries the counter-intuitive thing. She tries to walk forward through the pushing sensation on her*

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 1:05:41 AM)
::she paused, hearing the voice and she frowned, shaking her head, swallowing a bit, breathing in carefully, her hands rise, as though defensively, and there's a flash of bright green in her eyes, as they narrow::

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 1:07:50 AM)
*forcing the words out in a hiss* I can't see her, Ais. *opening her eyes and trying to reach for her friend without losing a hold of Isabel* But you've got a battery if you've got a target.. *offering her hand, still struggling to get closer* ((Toh.. can she move through the sensation or is she physically held back?))

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 1:07:52 AM)
::quietly:: Cas... you're okay?

Voice in the air (Jan 16, 2011 1:08:02 AM)
As though shes made of paper, Aislinn feels her thrown to the ground. "Foolish woman. You think to hurt, to kill me?!" The voice seeming to change to a different tone with each inflection. "They thought to kill the city! They thought to kill us all! We awaken! We awaken!" Delighted laughter fading and then still. Nothing ... it is gone.

Voice in the air (Jan 16, 2011 1:08:10 AM)
(feels herself)

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 1:09:06 AM)
*gasps suddenly and staggers forward a few steps as it ceases* Yeah.. I'm okay.. not gonna flip out yet. It's a spirit then?

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 1:09:17 AM)
She's in the entire room.... keep cal-::and is thrown onto the ground, sliding and narrowing avoiding having her head slam into the side of the desk:: Oof!

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 1:09:40 AM)
Well, that certainly seemed like one... *She heads over to Ais, and offers her an arm up*

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 1:13:22 AM)
*goes running out the nearest exit, narely taking the time to key the lock on the way..so the alarm won't sound..trying to follow something*

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 1:20:00 AM)
I can drive us there... if we need to go..... -why- do we need to go? Is he in trouble... I'm driving. ::just saying immediately, running the half-block back to her car:: I can make it so you don't have to sleep.. at least not immediately. ::said softly::

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 1:21:17 AM)
Panicking won't help anything, Cas...

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 1:21:36 AM)
*Cas keeps running, following her thread, worry driving her to ignore the stitch in her side..her training letting her block it out from her center as she needs to. Cas doesn't slow down or change direction except to avoid obstacles.. and she's very calm. Yay meditation!*

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 1:23:14 AM)
::Ais sighs, and ignores her bare feet, not wanting Cas alone even for a short drive, and long legs help her catch up, she'll muscle through it, magically if she has to::

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 1:23:59 AM)
*She continues to follow*

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 1:26:24 AM)
What are we planning to do?

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 1:26:54 AM)
*as the route becomes muddled.. Cas slows, panting hard and looking around at the maze of invisible string..moving aside to a sidewalk*

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 1:27:51 AM)
I'm not exactly sure, but I can't leave Cas to herself... Cas... what makes you think that Jareth is in trouble? What's taking you there?

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 1:29:51 AM)
*She crouches down next to the finally-stopped Cas* Hey...

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 1:30:40 AM)
*trying to speak with her throat too dry, breath still sawing in and out now that she's let her body have the reins again* I .. see strings.. thought it was a tie .. to us.. but so many.. *turning slowly..bracing her hands on her knees with a shudder in the wind..she hadn't stopped for a coat*

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 1:31:44 AM)
::Ais removed her sweatshirt, handing it to Cas without hesitation:

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 1:31:52 AM)
It's all through the city, Cas... Jar will be fine. You are fine, too. We can handle a few nightmares.

Voice in the air (Jan 16, 2011 1:32:49 AM)
Isabel's words hang in the air for just a moment. Reminder of the Chauchemar's own. "You will sleep, you all sleep sometime. Then I will play."

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 1:33:18 AM)
*backs up and puts her spine to a wall as if it will stop the spirit* Ugh.. *hugging the sweatshirt* No.. I mean..

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 1:34:06 AM)
don't think... it's Jareth, on the *waves the direction she'd been running* other end.

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 1:34:23 AM)
Well, she has a lot of targets....

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 1:35:09 AM)

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 1:38:37 AM)
*she shakes her head* stupid for running.. *still breathing hard* Can't even see it. Just a sort of ..time lapse light trail.

Aislinn Connelly (Jan 16, 2011 1:39:05 AM)
I haven't figured how to harm it yet... but I'll damn well try if it threatens you all again. ::frowning::

Isabel Ross (Jan 16, 2011 1:39:16 AM)
Okay. So it's hard to track. Think you'd recognize the light trail again if you saw it?

Cas Brimley (Jan 16, 2011 1:39:49 AM)
*a moment's memorization of the faint pattern and she nods* Anywhere.
