location: Ike's house
The note she found on her door was bothering her maybe more than it should. What the hell did it mean you are the Roanoke colony? While she barely paid attention in history, she remembered that the Roanoke colony was a settlement that just randomly disappeared without anyone figuring out why or where they went and that little bit of knowledge was enough to set her on edge. Was this a threat? A joke? She didn't know but she sure as hell was going to find out.
That was why she was on her way to see Ike. She wanted to show it to him first and get his take on it before worrying Ares. He'd be more sensible about it and talk her down. That and she didn't want to worry Ares preemptively. Thankfully she found him outside his house as she approached, note in hand. "Look what I found on my door this morning," she said as she approached and handed it to him, "tell me what you think this means before I start freaking the fuck out."
"Hrrmph." Ike let the grunt roll through his chest and up his throat as he peered at Nicki's note through the glasses he wore more or less habitually now, when he was in town. "Roanoke? That's an interesting one. Looks like we're gonna have to start figuring out who-all got these left on their doors." Reaching into the inner breast pocket of his jacket, Ike extracted his own note, unfolding it to show to Nicki. "Same style, same handwriting, different paper. D'you know the Franklin Expedition? A failed mission to fully map the Northwest Passage -- two big ol' sail ships getting trapped in the Arctic ice and all of 'em dying or disappearing."
