Isaac was pissed. Not in the alcoholic sense - that wasn't really possible for one of the Kindred - but in the sense that his boss was busting his ass. Again. "What do ya mean, you 'aint found nothin'?" Had been the way this particular explosion had begun. "The city pays you to find s$*+, Cole. So why 'aint you 'found' anythin' yet?" What his boss didn't know, was that he had been finding out things - but telling his boss would probably get his badge revoked for 'cracking under pressure', or it would break the Masquerade. Or both. Yeah, probably both. Turning up at Jonquil's door, he hammered out the prerequisite number of knocks for her to know it was one of the kindred, and then promptly lit up a cigarette, taking in a long drag. The others hated that he smoked - the whole innate fear thing. It was a coping mechanism, one left over from before he only needed blood. He didn't really do it to piss them off, but he liked to put them off balance. Doubtless, the 'kidnappings' would be a police matter, so I'm wondering how much Isaac would know about the events going on - after all, he can talk to people the other's can't.

Cool stuff. I can't wait to read it! I hope it goes up before I leave work, otherwise it'll be over 12 hours before I get the chance!

I don't get it. EDIT: I just switched to courage 4 self-control 3, if that's okay. Based on the comment above, I wanted him to have a bit more courage, and a little less self-control. He does have anger management issues, after all.
So, Mr. ST, can you give us any clues on what we can expect? I remember you were asking for some heavy-hitters (like myself and probably Jonquil), so that denotes the possibility of some straight up combat. But can you give us anything more? Hah, I'm only playing a detective, and I'm already fishing for info!
Slight expansion on the above:
He managed to earn his detective badge a few months after a big drug bust, finally passing the exam on his third try. Whilst he isn't stupid, he's more of a man of action and speaking (no-one realizes he's actually dyslexic). He was Embraced a little over a year ago when the man who became his sire was impressed with the way Isaac took out two gangers without his gun clearing his holster. Since then he has taken it upon himself to watch over the kine - one does not leave the herd unprotected. He now only works the night shift in his PD. |
