❛❛  freeze!  police!  put  your  hands  where  i  can  see  ‘em!

❛❛  listen,  i  have  a  gun…

❛❛  you  took  a  bullet  for  me!

❛❛  we’ve  got  two  victims-  it’s  pretty  brutal!

❛❛  do  you  have  an  alibi  for  the  night  in  question? 

❛❛  what’s  the  protocol?

❛❛  autopsy  report’s  in…  cause  of  death:  stab  wound  to  the  neck.

❛❛  we’ve  got  ourselves  a  serial  killer.

❛❛  i  already  told  you,  i’ve  never  seen  him  before  in  my  life.

❛❛  i  chased  him  about  a  half  mile  before  he  escaped.

❛❛  so,  the  kid  just…  shot  his  mother?

❛❛  i  don't  have  a  medical  degree,  but  i'd  say  this  victim  died  due  to  a  head  injury.

❛❛  they  found  more  blood  samples  on  the  knife,  no  match  in  the  system.

❛❛  we  have  a  report  of  shots  fired  at  the  address  of  our  lead  suspect.

❛❛  did  you  kill  him / her / them? 

❛❛  we  have  CCTV  footage  of  you  fleeing  the  crime  scene.

❛❛  he’s  dead,  isn’t  he? 

❛❛  they  were  innocent…  and  now  they’re  dead.

❛❛  hurry,  call  for  backup!

❛❛  don’t  you  carry  a  gun?

❛❛  there’s  a  bomb  inside  the  house!

❛❛  drop  the  gun…  now!

❛❛  can  you  explain  to  me  what  happened  that  night? 

❛❛  you  any  good  at  defusing  bombs? 

❛❛  she  was  just  laying  there…  dead. 

❛❛  i  called  for  an  ambulance  but  it  was  too  late.

❛❛  he  pulled  his  gun  on  me. 

❛❛  i  killed  him!

❛❛  someone  needs  to  catch  this  serial  killer.

"Do you know how important this is?" Jade had plenty to deal with when it comes to her job. Stress is situational. Depending on what sort of case she's involved with it can be the simplest or cause a lot of grief. At times she wonders how much blood she can wade through before it all goes numb. That's what she signed up for. she knew going in things wouldn't always be minor grievances. Lately, though, she's been embroiled in following up on forensics in what appears to be a connected series of murders.

She switched her phone from one ear to the other, moving through her apartment at a steady pace. Occupied with the voice of a colleague, Jade gave it plenty of thought. "I know. I know I should be getting rest but I can't stop thinking of this. DNA can only get me so far and the investigators need those results in the lab before they can even officially call this a serial matter. That's why I brought the data home on my thumb drive." Information is power. Connecting the dots will tell a story and if there's one killer with multiple victims they're dealing with the classic case of a serial killer. No going back from that.

Jade's conversation stalled, her pacing doing the same. Overhearing someone in the hallway, she is sure there's a person nearby. It could be a neighbor heading inside but the knock at her door disproved that idea. "Hey, someone's at my door. Can I call you later?" Lowering the phone at her side she moved curiously over to the door. She reached up to unlock it, revealing the visitor on the other side....

PSA PSA PSA!!!

As the years progress on Tumblr, I often hope that things will turn around in the RPC with its outlook on female muses. Unfortunately, I find myself disappointed - even now. Does no one realize that solely refusing to write with or interact with a muse based on their gender is discrimination? 

The definition of discrimination: a - prejudiced or prejudicial outlook, action, or treatment. b - the act, practice, or an instance of discriminating categorically rather than individually. ( according to Merriam-Webster )

This is where you judge a group of people or things solely based on an individual experience. People preach against discrimination on so many issues on here, whether that be sexuality, race, etc. But when it comes to something fictional as RPing, there are a number of people that throw this out of the window, and they literally see no wrong in it. Yes - there are people who write female muses who are tacky, and who will be rude, and who won’t follow rules. But this doesn’t fall on the female muse. This falls on the kind of person and individual that mun is.

Incidents like that isn’t located to just one group of people. Some muns of male muses are the same way. The only difference is that when it comes to male muses, the event is usually just individualized and male muses, as a whole, do not garner the blame for it. Because it’s not EVERY male muse fault. Why can’t people recognize that with female muses? It’s because of subconscious and internalized misogyny. 

The predominant base of RPers on this website are female. Yet there are many who will refuse to write or interact with someone, because their muse is FEMALE. Can yall repeat that prior sentence? Now, repeat it again. Don’t you see how foolish that sounds?

Oh, but don’t let me talk about how femininity is vilified in females. But when gay males express their femininity – which is stolen from women, and more specifically, BLACK women - in the RPC, its seen as cutesy and “uwu”. The feminine traits of women are accepted when it comes from a gay male. But people rather remain blind to that. 

TL;DR: Female muses deserve better. They are treated like bottom-of-the-barrel trash while their male counterparts are praised for doing the same things. Discrimination and misogyny is alive and well in the RPC, and as a community, we should do better because know better.

"Yeah," she reassured him despite her reservations. "I could see about my vacation days. Use a few now." A smile followed her plan of action but more importantly she took his face between her hands. Stroking along the edge of his cheekbones, trailing down to his jaw, she presented him with a soft kiss. To say it was to appease wouldn’t be fair. She did mean what she says but also there is some underlying issues. Ones she can’t tell him because -

The bottom line is that lately, Jade has discovered some other sides to Saint. His business or lack thereof in a normal sense isn’t HER business. He relies on revealing as little as possible. All the while he is aware of where she works.

In the end all of that conflicts. Who they are is exactly what he might say. He called her a good thing. Maybe she is. Maybe she isn’t. She just knows he’s not entirely good on a moral standpoint. None of that should matter when feelings are in the way but that’s just it. Feelings can be lust and a thrill. They can make a person get caught up and before they even realize it gets far too serious too soon. Engaged. Jade wanted that in life. Did she want it with him?

Jade pulled away now to look him in the eye. Dark eyes with a softer quality than most would understand. Those are the parts of Santiago Ramirez that catch her attention. Just as he did when he first stumbled on her. Persistence definitely became his virtue. But - if she even entertained one idea that was the opposite of what he wanted it would be bad. She’s not afraid but it’s in the back of her mind what’s come across her desk. Maybe if she talks to Markus. He always seemed to understand where she was coming from. This could be simply nerves and a not so fond memory of her ex making future choices less easy.

“You know. You have a bad boy with a heart of gold thing going on.” Jade teased him, smirking a bit with a coy arch of her eyebrow. “Keep that up and you might get me off work for a full week.”

Flattery. That always seems to be his greatest weapon. Often she wonders how they were entangled. Was her father right about getting into a job like this? Does it bring bad things? Get a girl caught up in the underworld? Saint might not tell her exactly what he’s up to but she’s seen his record. It's come across the desk of detectives countless times but there he goes with that sweet talk.

How bad can a bad man want to show he's something more? How easy can she look past it all? Where the wind blows on this case is somewhere she can't follow so easy.

"Don't." Jade interrupted him, shaking her head but heaving a sigh. Exhaustion is a thing. She wishes she had some release. A reprieve to what she's dealing with but Jade has seen the most grim reality of what she does in the last few weeks. "Don't be so familiar. Please."

Is it for her? Or him? Begging him to stop before he gets too far, Jade still didn't move. When he came closer she made eye contact. "I know, alright? I know you're not a serial killer. But I can't control what's on the scene, Saint. I wish I knew. I wish I could but-"

In this city people have too many faces. Jade likes to imagine she has just one but that's not true. There' another. The one that let him in. The one that moves closer when she should run the other way. Jade took several steps to close the remaining gap between them. "This is gruesome. Guns didn't do this. Butchered. All of them have been butchered. Women. One man but they say he was wrong place, wrong time."

And here she is giving him information. They'd have her head for that but she had to say something. "I feel like I'm living during the heyday of Zodiac and .45 caliber killers." Her gaze became distant. Almost lost in a sea of blood and body parts; she rubbed at her neck, stress tingling under the surface of her skin.

"I feel like we've grown apart lately. Is it 'cause of your work - or somethin' that I did? Somethin' that I didn't do?"

"Saint-" What could she say? That she feels things are going too fast? Maybe they are. Maybe she's letting too many past issues decide for her. She shouldn't let it control the future. How could anyone let one bad relationship shape any further ones? But the thing with Saint is he is not typical. All of her friends say they're surprised she's dating someone like him. When they say 'someone like him' they mean a man with a shady past.

She knows pretty well about certain people. Look where she works but he's not like that. He shouldn't be. He can't be. Their meeting might have been an little unorthodox but there is just no way she can think of him like her ex. Saint is different. Just look at him now being so open about what's bothering him. When will she start being open?

"Hey, it's not something you did." Reassuring him, she stroked fingers against his jaw. "I've just been busy. It's really hectic at work. I promise that's all it is."

Hesitating when she revealed Santiago Ramirez left her a bit stunned to say the least. All of those ideas of a random visitor with a wrong apartment dissipated as soon as it developed. This wouldn't be the first time she's crossed paths with this man. Never the last is it?

".... what are you doing here?" she asked, ignoring his pet name less she have a reason to get embroiled in a deeper mess. How many times does she have to blow him off before he quits that? Seems she can say one thing about him. He's persistent. Persistence never pays. Not where she's concerned. At least it draws back to a persistent ex-boyfriend who went sour.

No, Saint and Seth are very different from one another. There is no fear of broken hearts and pushed boundaries here. Plus, she can't even imagine Seth being the type to skulk in corners on the wrong side of the law. With a sigh she stepped aside letting him in because Jade knew damn well he'd get in one way or another. Best to keep any neighbors from figuring out what's going on.

Jade checked the hallway from each end before closing and locking the door. Nobody saw him come in. Call her antsy. This case is really riling up her nerves. "Saint, you know you can't just waltz over here any time you feel like." She never should have helped him that one time. Once turns into twice, so on and it keeps doubling into more. "If this is about the case I'm working on," the analyst crossed arms, moving into the living room with a shake of her head. "It's all over the news so no reason to sugar coat if it is. But you tell me you have nothing to do with it."
