[network] @featherydouche; night 160; deep snow and hella death [open]

[mrcreamsicles]

[It's near midnight when this post appears on the network. There are no words—it's not even video—but instead, a series of pictures. They've been drawn in pen on a drawing pad, laid on a floor and photographed by tablet camera. The lighting is not the best, considering the hour, but surely that is half the charm.]




















[After that godawful narrative, there are a set of linked files: pictures of all the bodies from the police station morgue. The file names are keysmashed gibberish, and the pictures themselves are distorted, but each displays an identifiable face taken through the observation windows on the body drawers. Tim's stands out, having a second photo that better displays the outside of his drawer, which has a large red X in a circle - Ⓧ - and a mask drawn in charcoal.]

[Davesprite may not be able to type words, but he can still keysmash a link for him.]

[He sends one of the morgue drawer pictures, too, to reinforce the point. He died. Visual shorthand is what he has to resort to without the means to communicate more clearly, and also this way was funnier in his view.]

[The keysmash tells him that this guy might not be able to type, either. Which would be why the pictures.]

So you must be Davesprite? [Weird name. But okay. He knows who Steve Rogers was, so Davesprite's gotta be this one.]

Also why did you take pictures of dead bodies? [That's weirder than the you-being-a-bird thing, dude.]

[Charles gets a shitty doodle of a thumbs up first, then two links:]

[It's called being helpful to other people, okay.]

[coyoteking]

Huh... interesting.

[He squints a little harder at that second link.] Rhys has a second body? I know we had a weird thing where there were like, two different Steve Rogers... es.

[Time to also squint at the bodies Davesprite has photographed.] I don't think I knew any of those people. Kinda creepy that someone drew on one of 'em.

Anyway, do you need anything? I'm not too far from you.

[He doesn't know who Rhys is and has only heard of Steve Rogers, but the instance of 'two different' ones neither surprises nor draws enough interest for comment. Of course it's possible. Different timelines, other shenanigans, whatever. He's living proof of that.]

[As for needing things... He could probably use more food, but he's not about to take that resource from someone else.]

[So he focuses on the remaining topic: creepy drawings. He sends the picture of the drawn-on drawer again, then points him at another link.]

[There's the creep who drew it, he figures. It's got the crossed-out-circle symbol House told him Brian's drawn elsewhere, and having seen him wear a mask of his own in person, it's a natural conclusion.]

private he guesses?

[coyoteking]

[Charles squints.]

You're saying... he did that?

I've seen those things drawn all over town so I mean, I guess it makes sense it was one of us. He said he drew the shit in the hospital, so.

Call that mystery solved.
