My reply

I guess it will be a waiting game for now.

I just received word that you are also in contact with Chronus. He is also a member of the group I belong to. I understand that you are probably being overwhelmed with email regarding this right now but, have faith in the fact that we REALLY do want help.
Please use caution in your investigation tonight. If we can decide on some exact things to acquire tonight, we will be in touch


EDIT: The blog has been updated saying anyone can post comments.
Also, I'm at work right now and cant view the image of the symbol. Anyone have it and can post it?

Now to ponder upon the symbol...
All I can see is a croissant roll.
What does anyone else see in it?

It totally makes me hungry..

Got another email from her:

Quote:
I await his email, then.

He's cool. If you consider me Gothic, you'd consider him the devil. He never goes out during the day, his hair is long and black and beautiful, and he's so pale. I don't know how he does it! If I didn't have a boyfriend, I would so want him.


BTW, thanks Chronus. You the man.

Sure thing, man Smile

Okay Alucard's definitely a vampire.
I'm sure Josh would probably agree.

In fact he sounds a LOT like the Alucard from the anime/manga, Hellsing.

I'm thinking Castlevania....

Maybe that's just cause I'm a game geek. XD

I would, but didn't Castlevania's Alucard have white hair?

FUCK THE POLICE.

And fuck Josh for thinking this might be about vampires, too. All this is, is another fucking gang killing that they're trying to blame on the goth kids.

Probably her name. Short for Amanda, maybe?
Something tells me she knows more about this murder than what she says.
I mean, come on. She knows magic.

This is probably referring to the flower "Amaranth" which originates from Greek meaning "Never Fading"

Woah, good find, Sylvia Smile
I've emailed Josh and asked what he made of the murder.
I'll keep in touch.

And I'm thinking you're right, DeadbyDawn....

Alucard has spoken to me.

I had recieved an email from daily.murderSPLATgmail.com, telling me to check my AIM.
I did.
It was Alucard.
Here's what we talked about:

We wrote:
dailymurderalu (7:42:59 PM): You're quick.
chronusvaltiel (7:42:42 PM): Thanks.
chronusvaltiel (7:43:05 PM): You must be Alucard.
chronusvaltiel (7:43:08 PM): It's good to meet you.
dailymurderalu (7:43:38 PM): But of course.
dailymurderalu (7:43:45 PM): Pleasure to meet you.
chronusvaltiel (7:43:24 PM): The pleasure's all mine.
chronusvaltiel (7:43:35 PM): Any news on this murder on your street?
dailymurderalu (7:44:19 PM): I haven't been home. I don't know anything about it yet.
chronusvaltiel (7:43:55 PM): Seems that amaranthe is sneaking into the deceaced's house.
chronusvaltiel (7:44:22 PM): It's on the Daily Murder Blogspot. White Rabbit wrote it, I think.
dailymurderalu (7:45:17 PM): Miss White Rabbit gets her nose in things. She's likely to have it chopped off.
chronusvaltiel (7:45:01 PM): I see.
dailymurderalu (7:45:39 PM): Amaranthe isn't likely to be hurt.
chronusvaltiel (7:45:13 PM): Well, she is young...
chronusvaltiel (7:45:15 PM): I hope not.
chronusvaltiel (7:45:21 PM): What do you make of it?
chronusvaltiel (7:45:27 PM): Blood drained, and that symbol...
chronusvaltiel (7:45:49 PM): My first thought was "vampire," but niether Amaranthe nor Josh think that's likely.
dailymurderalu (7:46:32 PM): Don't let others decide anything for you.
chronusvaltiel (7:46:16 PM): Oh, I'm still very open to the vampire possibility.
dailymurderalu (7:46:58 PM): So I've read.
dailymurderalu (7:47:06 PM): This is not a game.
dailymurderalu (7:47:21 PM): Nor is this an alternate reality.
chronusvaltiel (7:47:07 PM): ...I see...
chronusvaltiel (7:47:20 PM): I'll keep that in mind.
chronusvaltiel (7:48:09 PM): So. What do YOU think of the murder?
dailymurderalu (7:48:47 PM): I have come to no conclusions.
dailymurderalu (7:49:00 PM): There are more.
chronusvaltiel (7:48:36 PM): How many more?
dailymurderalu (7:49:36 PM): We are behind, because blogspot is running maintenance. there are at least a 6-9 more.
dailymurderalu (7:49:42 PM): same symbol in each one.
chronusvaltiel (7:49:42 PM): How far apart?
dailymurderalu (7:50:33 PM): In time? All since Saturday.
chronusvaltiel (7:50:14 PM): Hmm...
chronusvaltiel (7:50:18 PM): What about location?
chronusvaltiel (7:50:22 PM): Same state?
dailymurderalu (7:50:54 PM): Same town.
chronusvaltiel (7:50:56 PM): So... this could be a serial killing we're talking about....
dailymurderalu (7:51:35 PM): Absolutely.
chronusvaltiel (7:51:27 PM): Was there anything off about the crime scenes besides the symbols?
chronusvaltiel (7:51:39 PM): Say, something the killer/s may have left?
dailymurderalu (7:52:36 PM): There was a very sweet scent.
dailymurderalu (7:52:44 PM): But... that was it, in most cases.
chronusvaltiel (7:52:36 PM): What did it smell like? Roses? Pastries?
chronusvaltiel (7:52:50 PM): There may be something hidden that's emitting the smells.
dailymurderalu (7:54:02 PM): It was just sickeningly sweet. Most people would probably love it. Each person I've spoken to, has said it smelled like something different. Each thing was that person's favorite dish.
chronusvaltiel (7:54:04 PM): Hmm... something tempting.... That is odd.
chronusvaltiel (7:54:09 PM): What did you smell?
dailymurderalu (7:54:51 PM): Nothing.
chronusvaltiel (7:54:41 PM): I see.
chronusvaltiel (7:54:48 PM): You said that that was it in most cases.
chronusvaltiel (7:55:14 PM): Was there something else in the few other cases?
dailymurderalu (7:55:52 PM): Wood splinters.
chronusvaltiel (7:55:52 PM): Amaranthe mentioned wood splinters in the house next to hers, where the murder I know of occured.
chronusvaltiel (7:56:06 PM): She also mentioned scorch marks on the walls.
dailymurderalu (7:56:49 PM): I haven't seen that yet.
dailymurderalu (7:57:30 PM): I have to go. I encourage you all to keep in touch.
chronusvaltiel (7:57:07 PM): Will do.
chronusvaltiel (7:57:12 PM): It was an honor to speak to you.
dailymurderalu (7:57:48 PM): The feeling is mutual.
dailymurderalu signed off at 7:57:26 PM.
dailymurderalu is offline and will receive your IMs when signing back in.


Interesting, no?
