[ WAH. ]

hey
nimona
are you still there?
i didn't get any of these

[sharkgirl]

yeah i know i guess they all go through first thing
i'm fine
are you good

[resumed]

i didn't bother looking last night
sorry
i'm okay
well no i'm pretty mad this happened
rocket and groot were locked in with us last night
so how did it go this far?

[sharkgirl]

[the ... bubble pops up a few times like she's typing and then deleting and typing and deleting, and then:]

i don't know but i'm going to kill whoever did it.

[resumed]

[ he doesn't think to tell her not to. ]

we need to find out more about what happened first
it's the only way we're going to find who's responsible and be able to take matters into our own hands
that's what they want us to do, right?
and why the police won't help us now

[sharkgirl]

because why would they help us
this whole city is not with us nico

they pulled us in and told us the world was going to end and now they're leaving us out to dry
it's always us first

i don't know what to do about any of it i don't investigate stuff i just go

[resumed]

i never believed they were
otherwise we wouldn't be here with no answers still

[ he doesn't answer again for a moment. ]

where are you?

[sharkgirl]

in front of the fountain

[she's just sitting here in girl form staring at the remains.]

[resumed]

[ he leaves her on read.



but eventually he comes and sits next to her. ]

...he had his gun with him last night. [ just as a nice conversation starter. ]

[sharkgirl]

[she'll be here! she hasn't moved for like... hours, now.

sometimes you're tired. sometimes you are two inches away from your scaramouche era.]

That's what Saya said. [she says, looking at him.] We found a bullet. In the arcade. But I don't think his gun used those.

[resumed]

[ that's not promising. ]

Someone else trying to shoot at him then? Did anyone find his gun?

[ he's already starting to think of things because otherwise he's just going to brood about it. ]

[sharkgirl]

[she shrugs.

she should be trying to think this through, because she is brooding, but it's hard.]

I didn't. I didn't even hear about his body.

[resumed]

I only heard once the news broke. [ which is frustrating. ] ...if they're leaving this up to us, then we'll make it everyone else's problem until we get some answers. There's no other option.

[ be as annoying and ruthless as possible until they find a culprit. ]

[sharkgirl]

Me too.

[and then, after a minute:]

I'm good at being a problem. [so. yeah. they'll make it everybody's problem.]

[resumed]

That makes two of us. [ sometimes you just raise hell as a son of the underworld. ] There are plenty of things we can do to get information. It's just about finding which method to start with.

[ do we try to be reasonable, or jump into being sneaky. many options. ]
