Dialogue
402- Hissing and clicking, the arthropod extends its mandible-like antennae to greet you…
- "You're up quick... How was your sleep?"
- A heavy door with a missing handle stands before you, covered in dozens (if not hundreds)…
- Inside you see a set of steering levers, a radio-microphone, a pull-out toolbox, and the…
- "I believe they heard something," he says, glancing back at the twins. "And given the…
- "Let's start from the top."
- "Just a second, officer..." She puts you on hold, the static crackling softly like a…
- The tarpaulin cloak swings alone for a while there in the wind. No one's coming for it…
- The file cabinet stands steady as ever. Sliding out a drawer presents you the folders you…
- "I don't know what that means, Harry. Shady brew? There are so many moving parts in my…
- "Oh, I know everything about you, Harry." He taps on the folder in front of him. "I have…
- "Of course, let us dispatch with the formalities, you call me Evrart, I call you Harry!"
- "Harry... " he says almost gently. "Honestly, I'm just relieved you didn't get a hernia…
- "Yes, yes, my best men are tracking it down. Some kids saw some other kids running away…
- "I'm always happy to educate and entertain you, my friend." He takes a sip from his…

Notes
461- "Are we done here, Gary?" (Conclude.)
- "Because they're not really human, right?"
- The lieutenant gives you a quick glance. Then, still looking straight ahead, he joins you with a higher-pitched and slightly more melodic trill.
- "Thank you for sharing this wonderful opinion on human sexuality." He pretends to read the economics book open on the table.
- The lieutenant gives you a sharp look. He's bailed you out, again, but he's none too pleased about it.
- "Sounds like the victim was unconscious. Or at least incapacitated. Well done, detective." He nods to you.
- "Good god, detective. One more stunt like that and they'll have you institutionalized."
- The lieutenant nods to you. "That lines up with previous testimony, doesn't it? Well done, detective."
- "A bunch of what, detective?"
- "That is unhygienic. And dangerous. And it does not endear you to me -- just wanted to make that clear, okay?"
- "He said I'm his 'pig hooker' or something, whatever that is."
- "I guess I got my answer." The lieutenant gives you his usual firm stare.
- "You're making it worse, officer," the lieutenant says quietly. His eyes never leave the woman's face.
- "Thank you." He pockets the drugs. "I'm doing this to help you. We need to focus on the case."
- "Suit yourself, but I need to decompress first." (Turn to leave.)
- "You were making prank calls." Not a muscle moves in the lieutenant's face.
- "Big deal?!" Not a muscle moves in the lieutenant's face.
- "Don't trust me -- trust the Mother. I'm only the messenger, homes." His voice echoes in the cold air of the church.
