Conversations about Dead Folk
Josie @Kat and Nadia (NPC) @Elle Joyner collaboration
Rebecca was dead.
Some sick bastard had sucked the air out of her lungs, and despite the fact that Yul had a suspect in custody, there were no real answers, no real evidence… and Nadia had not been this pissed in a long, long time. Yul wanted them to ask around about the kid… get more information, and she had no problem busting up into the Miami folk's business, if it meant justice for their sister.
She found herself in the downstairs lounge after the meeting with Yul, and the first person she came across was the one who'd come in with the shattered knee. Nadia wasn't vindictive, but she was definitely annoyed enough to hope it still stung…
It passed swiftly enough, however, the thought… because despite whatever came to light about this Finn kid, she was pretty sure he'd worked alone. And having taken a bullet or two herself, Nadia knew all too well it wasn't a pain you wished on someone else.
Moving closer to where the woman sat, Nadia cleared her throat, "How's the knee?"
Josie had been engrossed in the textbooks for about an hour now, mind taking in every written word and caption. A few stacks of notebooks– one labeled molecular biology and the other evolution and structure of the cell– were opened to various different pages filled with an array of formulas, numbers, and symbols. Josie glanced up and acknowledged the familiar woman who'd likely addressed her.
"Hello," she greeted. "You were Nadia, right? My knee is in much better shape now, thank you for asking. I can say without a doubt, Thad works miracles. What brings you here today? It seems more tense in the base than usual."
"Tense is the word for it…" Nadia answered, with a nod, "Yul sent me to ask a few questions. You got a minute? Or you uh…" Eyeing the books with an air of someone who would rather do absolutely anything else in the world than read those books, she shrugged, "Busy?"
"Yul?" Josie raised a brow and set her books to the side. "I've got time. Is this about the lab he's letting me borrow for research?"
"Not exactly, no." Moving to sit on the coffee table in front of the couch, her shoulders bobbed again, "You uh… you friends with kid, Finn? Finn Westfall?"
"He's like a little brother to me. What's wrong?" She turned her body to face Nadia, concerned about her friend.
"You uh… you aware of all he can do? Power wise? He ever talk about it? Particularly like… the whole… suffocating people… thing?"
"What? Suffocating people?" Josie was shocked. "Excuse me but what the hell happened that led to this...? Why would Yul assume Finn can suffocate people? The kid can't even touch a fly with a ten foot pole and he definitely does not have the heart to suffocate."
"He uh… he was talkin' about it. About how he used it on his old archivist, when he started threatening people. Nearly choked the guy to death, apparently." Fiddling with the end of her hair, Nadia looked up again, "Thing is… one of our people went missing two weeks ago. Found her dead this morning in a restricted area on base… suffocated."
"Oh no, I'm so sorry that happened to you," Her voice lowered. "Listen Nadia, Finn wouldn't harm an innocent woman he's never met. Finn is a sweet boy and I can guarantee right now, he'd get caught by the guards walking around 24/7 before he even got near the restricted area. How could he get in there anyways? We can only go to certain areas of the Orlando base. It doesn't make sense that Yul would accuse him. Are there other suspects or people who have the ability to inflict pain, like suffocation or something similar?"
Chuckling, Nadia shrugged, "I met a lot of people looked like lambs, were lions, sister. Never been much to read a book by any cover, myself. If Yul pulled him in, he's got a good reason for it. Anyway… I guess it's no good askin' you if you think he did it, since you don't. But figure I should let you know, he's bringin' in the big guns to talk to the kid…"
"None of you know who Finn really is then. We'll get to the bottom of whoever really took her life. It's a false accusation on Finn and I don't beat around the bush." Josie stood up. "Is anyone else a suspect, Nadia? Is there anyone else who may have done what you believe Finn has done? We need answers fast and we need them now."
"He's the only one, so far… and doesn't exactly have an airtight alibi… no pun intended." As she rose, Nadia stood up lazily, cracking her neck, "But you're welcome to talk to Yul… I'm sure he'd hear you out."
"I don't know. That guy's hard to chat up sometimes. I'm sorry again, that this happened to your friend. Loss is difficult. Thank you for telling me what's going on Nadia. I'll do whatever I can to bring your friend to justice by finding out whoever did it and that also means proving Finn's innocence. You may have seen a lot of people in your time who didn't turn out to be who they were, however, Finn is different. He didn't do it, he never would, and I stand firmly by his side in this battle. If you find out any more information about what's going on, please feel free to let me know. I want to help."
"Good luck, girl. Really. I hope you're right. Would be nice, for once, to be surprised by someone in the right way." With a small salute, Nadia paused, mid-turn on her heels, "He's in lockdown, now… but you might be able to get some visitor time if you hit Yul up when he's in a good mood. He uh… he likes tea. Black tea. No sugar."
Josie raised a brow, but it quickly settled.
"Thank you."
Perhaps Josie would give Yul a visit… when he wasn't such a grouch. Black tea with no sugar as an added bonus.
