Creation 7

[dodo_master]

[Well Cynric finished his job! Aren't you all so glad you helped him? He's a bit upset that he didn't get any money for it, or even any food at this point, but a job well done is a job well done, at least.

After school that day (of which he may have accidentally wandered away from), he can be seen sitting on his porch, squinting at a piece of paper, trying to decifer its meaning.]


Wonder what this is supposed to be! Second Great War? I don't recall a first one of those... what the in world is a "missile"?

Hm. May I take a look at zhat, young man?

[Spy is intrigued! He remembers how important papers eventually became in Westport, and he wants to be able to say he handled one here before the general population got all up in arms over it.]

[dodo-master.livejournal.com]

Yes! But I'd like it back.


[Hands it to you. SO TRUSTING.] It's very hard to read though!

[never-any-doubt.livejournal.com]

I have had to decipher worse.

[He examines it. Is that... blood on it? Hm. He wonders whose blood, exactly. Plenty of people were mangled last night.]

Eet looks fairly standard, really, though zhe war referred to is one zhat I've never studied. Perhaps code?

[Or do they just refer to everything differently in Russia because they can't use names spoken by evil American tongues?]

[dodo-master.livejournal.com]

[Cynric shrugs.] I've been through a lot of wars, but I can't remember all their names!

[never-any-doubt.livejournal.com]

Mm. Eet could just be a dead end, somezhing put to deliberately throw us off. Eizher way.

[He hands the paper back to Cynric and then sits next to him.]

Ah! And congratulations on doing your duty in such an admirable fashion.

[He grins. Other people were pretty mad at him! And he was a little irked two of the names on the list weren't ones he reported, but oh well.]

Oh! Thank you. I had been asking for a job for awhile now, so I figured it only fair I do it properly.

Th-that icon. What.

[never-any-doubt.livejournal.com]

Indeed. Eet is commedable zhat you would work so hard to better zhe lives of our comrades.

[Spy is also angry that some of those names weren't Cynric's; a few of them were his.]

Lol, I'd link the whole pic if I were at home right now

[dodo-master.livejournal.com]

Well honestly I'm not sure about "better". I heard some people got executed. But I'd like to state that 3 of those 5 people willingly volunteered to have their names on there! Almost demanded it, even.

2 of them I didn't recognize though.

I expect to see it later!

[never-any-doubt.livejournal.com]

Oh? And which ones were those?

[dodo-master.livejournal.com]

Hmmm. A "Jane" and "Mindy".

[never-any-doubt.livejournal.com]

Ah, oui. Zhat was because I was zhe one to report zhem. But I have not been punished for not meeting quota, so as of yet, I am not angry zhat you are getting credit for my work.

[dodo-master.livejournal.com]

Oh! Really? ...you know there's some people who are pretty mad about that! Didn't they volunteer? Like the others?

[never-any-doubt.livejournal.com]

Zhey as good as did so, oui.

[Read: He didn't like them much, and Mindy called him 'mean'! Bitch had to go!]
