We have found the— [ A pause, and quieter, to the side: "What is the word?" A heavy sigh from further off, which sounds kinda like Loki. "It is vandal." ] —Vandals! Who ruined things. We found them, even though Roslyn would not help.

I have named them stump for hands, because stump means not to have a hand. [ she sounds so pleased with her own cleverness. ]

If anyone needs to find and punish someone, then you should ask Loki. He is very good at it.

[ And in the back again, from Loki: ] But not without a price.

[She speaks carefully.]

That seems a little old-fashioned.

ACTION BIT EME

[ she had earphones in and music up that is how she didn't hear them making this post but she listens to it with GROWING HORROR and a couple seconds after it finishes she slams open her door with way too much force. ]

What the hell -- what were you thinking?

[whatsupcroc]

... Why are they stumps for hands. That's not funny.

Cutting off the guy's hands.

Did you take them both off?

[That might be a little extreme, okay.]

[ooc: that was supposed to be vandals not thieves, sheesh...]


That seems awfully extreme for such a crime.

[And incredibly reminiscent of his father's punishments.]

In what way?

[withouthumanity]

They were not cut.

[withouthumanity]

It most certainly was not meant to be.

It makes it hard for people to become productive members of society if they're laking thumbs.

[ Loki is most definitely sitting at the kitchen table, minding his own business entirely. ]

I'm sorry?

[withouthumanity]

I am afraid that productive members of society would not vandalize homes that do not belong to them initially.

[Artika didn't answer her question, so...]

Did you leave one, at least? Hand.

What the hell?! We're not in the age of barbarians, you know!

Now where would the fun be in that?

[flightlessbird]

It was a bad crime!

[flightlessbird]

Yes. [ like it's so obvious?? ]

You might as well have killed him, then. He's just going to be a burden to people, now.

[Not that she's saying she approves of any of this ... out loud ...]

[withouthumanity]

Ah, I do love your frustration.

[studieswaitressing]

That seems -- wasteful.

[flightlessbird]

[ Artika looks up from her netbook, blinking JUST SO INNOCENTLY. ]

I told you.

You would sympathize with one who'd cause me harm?

( WOW ARE YOU HIS FRIEND OR NOT, RAVEN? )

[ YEAH WHAT HE SAID. ]

I was not saying a joke.
