Hey, this is James. Text me if you need me. Or leave me a message if you want, but I'm probably not going to listen to it because, seriously, this is 2017 and no one uses voicemail any more.

they’ll kill whether they feel threatened or not. it’s just a matter of how advantageous it is to them. isn’t that what happened to you? how were they protecting themselves by killing you? incarcerated, behind bars, with a very small chance at catching them. it was just an easy way to force the police to close the case and limit resources to Retrospec individuals. we can see the killer has an inflated ego, but we need to know what we’re dealing with, James. or else we’ll walk around blind and drop dead the next second.

the case hasn’t made progress since that post and it could have easily gone cold in time. as much as i also agree that this is a desperate measure, we’re in desperate times.

you like getting arrested, don’t you.

[ But. ]

i’m not against that, but be careful.

you only get arrested if you get caught
and i turned myself in that last time
if you sneak around and do it right you don't get caught
what you're planning is literally begging for the killer's attention

i’m a bit surprised that you’re this confident in breaking in without getting caught yet i’m also not.

if the card does threaten them, then they’ll keep the item in their home to use and keep it close. if we don’t, then they’ll hide it somewhere and you might break in for nothing, then the killer can continue to disguise murders as natural deaths. we’re taking pretty big risks whether we do this or not.

[ Admittedly he should be trying to keep away from any chance of landing back in jail again, but. this is important!!!!!

but also he hates that Akira has a point. ]

so we're damned if we do damned if we don't

[maskreant]

yeah, it might have always been that way since we're dealing with some magical item.

[ It's so stupid. ]

i'll keep you posted. tell me if you hear any rumors or find anything, too.
