INCIDENT REPORT

Archer Investigations...

• Aradia awakens in her penthouse bedroom, naked and cleaned up from the following night. Kira is sleeping beside her. Upon awakening, Kira informs Aradia that she removed her torn and bloodied clothing, and bandaged up her stigmata wounds. As thanks, Aradia feeds from her, fulling healing her superficial wounds. She then moves to feed from another "follower" who is still asleep.

• Kira relays that the coven has been unable to find anything related to Lavinia in their search of the penthouse. In fact, most of the space appears to be heavily staged — as if it was for show, not habitation.

• Aradia can't find her car keys, and vaguely recalls leaving it parked up on the sidewalk out front of the building. Kira goes down to look for it, but returns with no further understanding of its whereabouts. Instead, she attempts to call High Regent Sturbridge, at the Barnard College Chantry. However, her call is screened by Giselle, upset that she cannot simply pass on a message.

• Justine awakens in her plush bed above Club Medea. Her boys are quick to attend to her needs as Jacques, victorious in rock/paper/scissors, bares his wrist to be fed from. Justine finishes her evening ritual by pulling a single tarot card — the Seven of Swords.

• The phone rings at Justine's haven — it's Aradia. Justine is updated about what generally happened the prior night, at Hess Triangle. The two agree to meet at Aradia's and go from there.

• Lina and Josi awaken within the walls of the Center for Thanatology — Josi in her bed, and Lina in a chilled morgue drawer. Josi takes a golden goblet of blood to Pius, and helps him step out of his stone sarcophagus. He chats about his plans to continue watching The Day I Died marathon, being presented by the "prismatic peacock" on television.

• The pager that Josi was given by Anatoli Petropoulos goes off. It simply reads: "elysm mdnt bitrswt". Lina and Josi then head out, with plans to hand over the keys to Archer's new business.

• Justine gracefully passes through Club Medea, making polite small talk with passing patrons on her way to Demaris' office. Justine apologizes that she won't be able to perform this weekend. Then the two catch up, speaking largely in vague allusions to the Kindred world. Demaris hasn't felt threatened by anything from that world, though she does worry about Justine's safety — she really has jumped headlong in with a seemingly active group.

• En route to Aradia's penthouse, Justine steps into a small bodega and purchases a hotdog each for Jacques and Didier. She folds the top of the bag over tightly, and "entrusts" it to one of the two of them — stressing that they are not to be consumed before she says so.

• Justine comes upon Aradia as she's speaking with the doorman of her building. It seems as though Aradia's car was towed earlier this morning. A couple of plainclothes officers looked it over pretty thoroughly before the tow truck showed up. Aradia instructs Kira to look into it, and try to get her car out of impound.

• Justine and Aradia hail a taxi — making room for the gimps in the trunk by subtly removing the spare tire, leaving it cast aside the curb.
