( 01 ) video.
[ when the feed clicks on, marduk is in what appears to be a ruined building near the edge of town. there's snow on the floor and holes in the walls, but he's not wearing a single scrap of winter clothing. more importantly, he doesn't look especially pleased to be doing this. ]
Recently, one of the locals here went missing. Don't ask me what his name was, I'm not the one who gives a shit. I'm just here to solve the mystery.
He's missing because he's dead, and he's dead because I killed him.
[ he pauses here. it looks like it's for dramatic effect, but really he's just trying to figure out how to end the announcement. ]
Most of you would call that murder, wouldn't you? Can't remember if you all figured out what to do about that, but-- if you want retribution, you can come and get it.
[ good enough. the video ends there. ]

Either make the threat or shut your fucking mouth. [ like, what the fuck is he even playing at here? marduk can't follow it at all, and the lack of understanding just serves to irritate him further. ]
no subject
( It's the thing that's even more ludicrous to Bruce. )
Finding out what happened, seeing people make what reparations they could, those are the kinds of things that might be doable here. We don't act on the Code of Hammurabi around here, and we can't afford to, so why the dramatics?
no subject
at least, not in person. the network is easy to handle-- you just stop responding. but face to face? ... ]
I don't know if I'd call that a panic. [ he sounds almost petulant. stop judging his bad decisions, man. ]
no subject
( He snorts, more of a half seen motion than a sound echoing across the area. )
Less than 24 hours after having a middle aged man and a teen boy ask after the legal owner to the property you were squatting in? Doesn't rate as much of a well considered plan.
no subject
mostly worse. ]
How long are you going to keep up this pretense? Or maybe-- [ a better question: ] What kind of old man manages to track down someone based off of a couple of minutes of video that quickly, huh? I'm not buying it.
no subject
( ... he hadn't meant for that jest to be accurate. Oh well. He didn't sound particularly amused, outside of a general, grumbly sort of tone. )
Where are you going from here, with your appropriated crime and confession? You haven't planned this far. I'd be surprised if you'd even thought toward the future.
