( because she is nothing if not prepared to slap down receipts: )

misty quigley's a nurse
and i think this shit tells on itself

"I’m really good with herbs and plants in North America, but not so much here. There’s got to be something poisonous somewhere, though!"

"I'm pretty good at foraging. But whether it's a lethal dose versus just a bad time versus maybe a good time is gonna be a little up in the air until we try it."

[still sorting through crime stuff, but, with a sick bolt of horror --]

She asked me about toxic plants, too, when she first reached out. Flora and fungi. I mentioned foxglove.

[rehandle]

[ Christ. Right - ]

Okay. Alright, thank you for letting me know.

[rehandle]

We need to shut her down.

[haggle]

game plan? how are we running the play?

[powerhungry]

If we want to deal with her, we'll have to deal with all of the girls.
We play nice or we make an enemy of the whole voting bloc.

[haggle]

so we pass it down to cellar
she's already pointed the finger. now she'll have a leg to stand on

[rehandle]

If she's done this, I wouldn't put lying about her role or at least what she learned from it to further frame Devon and take any heat off of her own people past her. Vindictive and calculated makes her more dangerous than Saber for the influence she might be able to exert over the game now.

I don't relish throwing Cellar to her and her pack, but if you think she can pitch this well, it's worth a try.

[haggle]

i think that ship already sailed when cellar called her out
but she has it locked and loaded in her back pocket now
far as she knows, it came from me and only me

[rehandle]

Thank you.

Let Cellar be loud. We should spread the word where Quigley can't see, ideally before she has chance to publicly undermine anything we might say privately. The more people we trust who tell the people they trust, the more chance we'll have of her making a noose for herself.

If we can undermine her, we can cut her off. Their bloc may have sway, but not if we make it a small and isolated island.




In the meantime, if we have anyone still enough under the radar for her to buy them, we could send her a follower or two.

[powerhungry]

Cellar's brought the information to me. I've already instructed her to tell others.

And I can speak with Misty.

[rehandle]

[ That's good, proof of wheels in motion. And then - the volunteer of the century. ]

What's your angle?

[powerhungry]

I have something she wants: a vote.

[rehandle]

[ Hah. ]

I look forward to hearing how it goes.

[powerhungry]

[ Momentarily: ]

@ everyone

I don't believe anything would truly win Misty's trust, but I have her ear, and a deal.
Though I recognize it to be contrary to our prior discussion, it would help my case if at least one of you would put your vote behind Devon.

[rehandle]

With the vote this close, unless we can move some others into Saber's court at the same time, it's a risk.

What's the deal?

[powerhungry]

We leave the girls alone, at least visibly, for what little remains of the round, I back their vote, and whip a few more.
In exchange, I earn more of Misty's trust, and, next round, the chance to turn their voting bloc in our favor.

[haggle]

what the doc said. you couldn't have promised her that after we got our shit squared away?
saber's got a hard-on for 4 people in this chat and the vote's neck and neck
you let him perp walk, one of us is biting it. count on it

[powerhungry]

Had we the luxury of another day, certainly, but as things stand, I make an offer now or we let them spiral out of control for another week.

[rehandle]

We can't trade Saber for Devon. If Danny hadn't taken over top spot we could try it, but any of us pulls our vote now and Saber's loose for another month, and we've wasted a cage on somebody we can see is being framed by the person we're getting into bed with.

It's good work, but if she won't collaborate with you without the swayed votes, we'll have to disrupt them another way.

[kobes]

I can speak with my crew. They were
Not pleased about Saber threatening me. It's worth a shot.

[rehandle]

It is. Let us know how it goes.

[haggle]

( ANI WILL REMEMBER THIS )

please
cause right now, misty must be a bigger problem than whatever revenge saber wants to cook up
my life, jake life's, strange's life and your life rank right on the bottom rung

[powerhungry]

Agreed — I'm not eager to see Saber walk free.
So long as I'm not seen to be interfering with them publicly, my vote may still be enough.

[rehandle]

[ A bit of a pause, Stephen running conversations elsewhere, but a thought strikes that brings him back - ]

If they do succeed with Devon, and he isn't a wolf, if we leave Misty's reputation intact the spotlight of her necromancer's claim turns onto Koby for Castiel's death.

People laughed Dom down, but if they were willing to swallow her argument for Devon they're going to have to wrestle with whether or not to hold onto the reasoning.

If you can, find out if she was lying?

In the meantime we'll need to keep working to undermine her. Quietly.
