[Call/message filtered from Margot (Crowe feels she's upset enough already) to all non-drones. No one Crowe knows had been droned until now and he's having a hard time dealing with it.]


Does... does the town often drone people for no reason? This is... this is... I don't even know. How can this happen? Nadia was one of the nicest people in town, she... she never bothered anyone, never hurt anyone..._{it's not fair... what if she doesn't...}

I-I mean is that it then? Even if we DO get along with this town and its rules, we might just droned anyway?! For no reason whatsoever? Am I just supposed to sit around and wait for them to brainwash the rest of us permanently too? I don't get it! What do they want from us?! What are we supposed to do?


[There's a pause as he sighs and rubs his forehead.]


...I-I'm sorry it's just... _{why couldn't they have done it to someone else...}


[The phone is hung up.]

Mm... you probably shouldn't be alone right now.

Hm, it would appear as if the town has a method to keeping those in the houses in line. I have no inclination to believe that this is isolated. Perhaps there is a reason they were droned. Did they perform a task too perfectly? Did they disagree with anyone or anything the town had to offer? It is something worth checking out and perhaps then we can have an answer. We may not be so fortunate to discover an answer so quickly.

Let us not dwell too much on this lest we become victims ourselves.

Precisely. As you say, you can be droned for anything, as long as they want, regardless what you do or how well you do it.

A nice place, isn't it?

Mr. Edgeworth was droned for no reason too.

...He's gone completely now.

We're playthings. Simple as that.

Yeah man, sorry about that. It really sucks. What sucks even more is that this town's never really..fair about it. It's just once in awhile somebody's just...I dunno...gone.

What's a drone?

[windmill.livejournal.com]

...Don't mention any of that to Margot.

[Sniper would find Crowe after that call. He did not even have his fake smile up at the moment.]

Someone else fall already?
