[UPDATE] Path of Least Time - 6th May 2006

[badbarry]

I thought Kurt was a goner this time. He's been far too easy to contact and does everything we want too readily. I though MC would make it harder by taking him out of action and making us find a new gopher. Maybe they still will by keeping him in hospital for a time but, though I'm no doctor, i would have thought that a sprained ankle was hardly that debilitating.

What would we do without Kurt - imagine trying to get Tippy to do something for us. Now Von might be a better bet...

Does anyone think any of the CRT will buy it, or will they always miraculously survive all that the 3P throw at them?

Kurt isn's safe yet. He still has a self-destructive urge to talk to miranda again...

#it's harsh that Anna doesn't know. We started all this so we could help her find out the truth behind her friend's death, and now we know, she hasn't been told, but Violet and Kurt know. Poor Anna. (Though I can see that if she knew she would go to the police, and Kurt would go to jail... )

[GasparLewis]

Well, he was an unwitting accessory; and considering the lengths went into her capture, I suppose a plea bargain would give him a drastically short sentence, and parole would be very easy to get. Anything to be sure that she's under lock and key.

They wouldn't be at all happy Kurt went all "vigilante justice" on the department, and they'd still hit him hard, but he never really committed a violent crime, so it's really all up in the air.

Up to Kurt, really.

Maybe she'll sail into the (until now unmentioned) Perplex Triangle, and it'll make her and the boat suddenly disappear

[Hituro]

I would certainly be surprised if the 3P let her be captured that easily. Looking at how easily they can abstract people here on Earth I am betting they would find it evern easier in PXC

edit: replied to wrong thread. i put it in the right one now though.

Sorry, but providing an unwitting alibi for someone isn't the most illegal thing ever. Kurt's not exactly an accessory so much as someone else who was fooled by her. They don't throw you in jail for being a victim. Also, "I want to talk to miranda again" isn't exactly in the friendly spirit.

heh, don't assume anything.

for instance, I emailed Anna as soon as Kurt posted his first suspicious message about Miranda (and asking her not to get the police involved, but perhaps her husband could help again), and I emailed her again yesterday telling her that I thought Kurt may have been in the exploded building, possibly with Violet, and that she should find out if everyone's okay.

So, yeah. We don't know who knows what here, if anything.

Oh, and I also emailed Scarlett on the off chance that she had seen Miranda or a picture/file of her before in Viendenbourg. Though I didn't say why.

[Tintintin]

I think the first thing not to assume is that she's actually on that boat... She's smart and resourceful, and clearly has contingency plans in place, if not the backing of an entire organisation of some sort.

My bets are (and I would actually go so far as to put some real Lecks on this) that she was never on that cruise, and has sold us all a dummy and vanished again while everyone thinks she's in the bag...

[batgirl]

She wasn't on the boat...
