oo2 ★ TIME FOR SOME INFO GATHERING

[electrowhipit]

I guess that's one way to put out a fire. I can't say I really appreciate being left in the dark, though. [ there's a soft thud in the background ] Ow. Fraggit, who put that table there? I need a... what is it? Portable light thing... oh flashlight. I wonder if we have one...

Um, anyway. Speaking of being in the dark... I keep hearing things about this milkman- which is a ridiculous name, by the way- but I'm only catching bits and pieces. Someone wanna fill the new guy in? It sounds like he's got quite the history.

Oh, and Sideswipe? We need to talk.

You know, I've been wondering about that as well. I've never even seen the guy. If you find anything, tell me.

...And shouldn't robots hate rain?

[electrowhipit]

Will do, uh... I don't think I got your name.

And why would I hate rain?

[brbpouncingyou.livejournal.com]

Hunter.

Aren't robots electronic... things? Wouldn't you hate the rain?

[electrowhipit]

Jolt.

I don't mind it. A little rain never hurt anybody.

. . . So like, remember when we were talking about weird stuff that happens? Like, this guy's been involved in the worst of 'em. He like, poisoned all the milk and like, a ton of people died. Something about like, Christmas and body parts, too, but like, no one's been very clear on that since like, Christmas is only just coming up.

Like, that's what I've heard. I like, wasn't around either.

[electrowhipit]

Oh, yay. Sounds like real fun to have at a party.

Now I'm trying to figure out who would elect him for anything.

[if-she-hollers.livejournal.com]

I'm like, pretty sure there wasn't an election at all. Besides like, the one with the fish and the countries.

[yamatopetals.livejournal.com]

He does have quite a history but... It's strange, did anyone actually vote in this 'election'?

[electrowhipit]

I just got here, so I know I didn't. I'm kind of hearing that there wasn't an election anyway.

[yamatopetals.livejournal.com]

That's what it seems. It's all... [she sighs] I'm sorry. Did someone tell you about what he's done? I can do my best to tell you what I know.

The milkman seems to be related somehow to the mayor and the police chief - well, the mayor before - in that he wasn't like the drones. He also left poisoned and otherwise tampered with milk and orange juice for the town, and I think people suspected him of being involved with the deaths in July.

[electrowhipit]

I've heard about the poison, but... what happened in July?

[bustydefense.livejournal.com]

It started snowing, and we got Christmas decorations, including gift-wrapped boxes... Inside the boxes were the... the cut-up bodies of drones.

[Somewhere in the house, it sounds like someones tripping...alot]

I found some candles!

[electrowhipit]

... Harley?

If it gives off light, I'll take it. Just... [ ohgod. carefully trying to maneuver around the furniture ] where are you?

[crazyclownwoman.livejournal.com]

Yeah, just don't burn the place down! ...

I'm in here!
[She's in the next room he goes into lighting some candles around the room]

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

Talk? You want to talk now?

[electrowhipit]

I have one word for you:

Starscream.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

...

You're joking.

[crawlininmytome.livejournal.com]

I'm just as clueless about this man as you are. How much do you know so far?

[electrowhipit]

He poisoned the milk at one point, and I'm sure you can imagine how that ended. And something about body parts.

Overall... not much.

[crawlininmytome.livejournal.com]

Tch. He sounds like quite the charmer.

[skyruns.livejournal.com]

I'll keep my eye out for a flashlight. Perhaps I should check to see if there are any spare parts around here to see if I can fix our problem with the lights for the time being.

[electrowhipit]

... Are you some kind of inventor or something?

[skyruns.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I haven't really gotten a chance to check out the technology in this house, though... it'll be interesting to see what I can work with in a different timeframe.
