007.1 Handwritten notes

[the following notes are delivered by courier and are written in simple cyphers--letter replacement, mirror writing, and the like.]


[to Luke Skywalker, delivered to his kindergarten class]
Palpatine knows. Bring Mara over as soon as possible. We have to strengthen her shields and find whoever the Porter transferred my powers to TONIGHT.
Network may be compromised.

[to John McClane, delivered to his apartment]
Network may be compromised.
Be advised new arrival calling himself Palpatine is extremely dangerous and looking to gain a foothold via connections with currently established criminals.
Please advise re: creating an airtight case.

[to Elisa Maza and Atsuko Jackson, delivered to the police station]
Surveillance will take longer than expected but should proceed by next week.
Do not reply by network.

[to Miles Edgeworth, delivered to the courthouse]
[address of Teddy and Sarah's place here]
DO NOT SEND RETURN INFORMATION BY NETWORK.
What happened to Vader was self-defense. On Palpatine's orders, he had already killed hundreds of Jedi, including children; I told his wife what he had done, then confronted him.
Luke Skywalker can verify at least some of this and I will submit to any kind of screening process to assure you this is the entire truth.
I am not blameless, but Palpatine is a murderer.
Trust me.

[to Tony Stark, delivered to his office]
[attached is the address of a post-box in a downtown copy shop]
How interested are you in information exchange?

Fascinating Use for Ice Powers #46: Messaging

[Folded up tightly inside a very little plastic bag, encased in a small cube of ice which has quietly slithered its way across lawns and over streets and up stairs and things, mostly out of sight. It taps at their door three times, leaving tiny trails of water where it hits, before settling down and looking relatively unobtrusive.]

K.

I will need to speak to you, Skywalker, and Vader in further detail; Palpatine also requesting meeting, though I do not trust him. Please advise for safety on all counts.

The truth will come out.

i've no icon for his face at the 'strike to immobilize and not kill' remark, sadly

[Another, if from a different route, and this time at a window.]

K.

I am able to clear my schedule as soon as you require.

Luke--
I shall speak to him as soon as the opportunity presents itself.
Vader--
Duly noted.
Palpatine--
Your recommendations are noted. I intend to contact likely sources of assistance very soon.

action....?

[ It's hard not to notice you writing all those notes, Ben. If you're doing it in the house, that is. ]

[ Someone's trying really hard not to be nosy, but eventually young padawan Altman can't help himself and wanders in. ]

Hey.

[ The suggestion makes Teddy's nose crinkle as it goes pink but he quickly shifts it away beneath his hand as he rubs at it. Gracelessly he plops down into a chair across from Ben. ]

"Padawan without the Force" seems sort of longwinded, Ben. And if we ever had to go to a meet-and-greet I doubt it'd fit onto those stickers they give you that say "HELLO MY NAME IS:" at the top.

Or. Wait. Did you mean just "Padawan"? [ He crinkles his nose again, self-consciously. ]

[ Mr. Kenobi, you have video! It flickers to life, to show Tony's face, although you can bet it's just a simulation, although that's not easy to pick up on. He's been doing this for a while. ]

What sorts of information?
liverletdie: (Extremis | Underarmor doesn't cover much)

[ He's just that good. 8D ]

I'm listening, and very interested.

[This note arrives via courier rat, which swims up out of the toilet and delivers its note encased in a plastic ziploc sandwich baggie, double-sealed with gold star stickers. The note itself in is Aurebesh.]

We'll be there. Everything all right?

later still;

[identity profile] inheritsthesky.livejournal.com 2009-10-22 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
[The rat returns, looking very disgruntled, and takes off as soon as the baggie (waterproofed with glue paste along the ziploc edge) is removed.]

As soon as class is done for the day we'll head out. Who is it?

some time further on toward noon;

[This note arrives in a very large--thin six inches by one foot--envelope with TO BEN KENOBI written carefully on the front. Inside is a card (http://lh3.ggpht.com/_viCGv2OBtg8/St_CBuLxMkI/AAAAAAAABag/o0hz09ZpOR8/getwellben.jpg) drawn by Luke's students, and another note.]

Well Force or not, I have a feeling you guys will be all right until we get there.

Network compromise? What are you talking about?

I'm not the guy to ask about legal perfection.

Fingerprint evidence. Don't let anybody contaminate a crime scene with their personal DNA before EVE or Dexter or somebody can get in there to examine it. Video footage helps, if you can capture it on the network comm as it happens. Audio of criminal conversations is also good. Documentation, falsified records, catching people with illegal drugs... go through phone records to try and find fishy calls and conversations... there's a lot you need to gather for a lawyer to argue a case. The more you get, the stronger the case, the more likely it is some fancy lawyer bullshit dodge artist shit will hold water with a jury.

Unless they're bought, like they'll probably be in this shithole town.

Clearly we need a face-to-face meeting. When and where?
