Marasi Colms, at your service

[cadmium-colms]

*climbs in through her window to sit casually at her dining table right as she walks in* 'ello, Ma- don't shoot, it's me! 'm alive! -@and-wayne

Wayne? Rusts, you’re alive!

*She hugs him tightly*

[and-wayne]

*hesitates briefly* Lessie's back, too. I fixed her. Just a warning, don't shoot if you see her 'round.

We've been workin' together to investigate some of the conditions in the worst of the factories. Collecting evidence for you to do somethin' with.

[cadmium-colms]

She’s back? She’s…alright. I trust you.

I’ve been keeping an eye on some of those factories. They’ll cause some major problems if they’re unaddressed. Good to know you’re on it.

[and-wayne]

Had to get her a new sets of spikes, that's all. I got it handled, Mara, you know me.

*huffs* They're real pieces of work over there. You think bein' a bastard is a hirin' requirement to become a foreman? ... maybe Miles missed his calling.

[cadmium-colms]

I do. Just keep her out of trouble.

Maybe they were so unlikable they couldn’t find work anywhere else…

[cadmium-colms]

Wayne makes speed bubbles, I make slowness bubbles

[the-ominous-chasmfiend]

:O slowness bubble??? how slow?? how big bubble???? would friend marasi make bubble for chasmfiend?

[cadmium-colms]

It depends on how much cadmium I have, and the bubble is fairly large. I don’t know if it could fit you, though, if you’re wondering.

Why?

[the-ominous-chasmfiend]

*walks around a corner to see her standing there*

*speedily begins walking in the other direction, looking totally not suspicious*

-@kelsier-wrangler

*She raises an eyebrow, and lets him get some distance, before following him through the crowd*

[kelsier-wrangler]

*he keeps walking as though unsuspecting, before moving with the flow of the crowd to get turned around, making a loop towards the Soothing parlor he was originally headed for*

[cadmium-colms]

*She loses him for a second, before spotting the top of his head going the opposite direction. She stops outside a broadsheet stand, pretending to read the headlines while she watches him from the corner of her eye*

*A short woman wearing a utilitarian-style dress walks up to your counter and dings the bell. She has a copper bracelet with a Terris symbol on it.*

Hello, could I have some help?

@whiteraven-cosmere

Hm? Of course, what can I do for you?

[whiteraven-cosmere]

*She fidgets with her bracelet, then hesitantly speaks*

So... you're a detective, right...?

Do you know anything about an organization known as...

*leans down*

the Ghostbloods?

[cadmium-colms]

*She raises an eyebrow*

I’ve heard of them, yes. What seems to be the issue?

[whiteraven-cosmere]

I'm just... running an investigation. What I used to think was a small organization, I then found manipulates governments, which I then proceeded to find out spans across multiple planets...

I'm just trying to figure out how deep the mink hole goes.

[cadmium-colms]

I see. Do you have any evidence of this?

[whiteraven-cosmere]

Not any physical or concrete evidence, no. I do have some anecdotal evidence, which I have on my coppermind, but nothing that you could start an actual case off of. That's why I came to you. You do seem like the knowledgeable type, and from what I've heard of you, you aren't one to let a case run cold.

[cadmium-colms]

I will look into it, Ms…?
