ITP you have a sign floating above your head

[There is a sign above Rika's head.

The moral of my story is:
Always stand by your friends, even if they've murdered two adults and are trying to blow up your school.

Other characters, too, may have a sign above their head containing potential morals from their canon.]

--Anthrax? You do live an exciting life, Dr Reid.

...It's not as bad as the sign makes it sound.

[yes, it is.]

[gayforjustice]

I should hope not. That doesn't sound like a very healthy lifestyle.

[prosekhodaphne]

Incidents like those aren't really that common.

[gayforjustice]

That's reassuring. Would you tell me the anthrax story?

[prosekhodaphne]

[has a brief mental debate about this, but you are from a different world]

...We were investigating a researcher who had made a number of extreme statements about the country's vulnerability to biological warfare; there had been an attack on a playground in the area. However, when we arrived at his house, he was found dead with a broken container of weapons-grade anthrax nearby. He eventually turned out to have an apprentice, who was actually the unsub we were searching for; the rest of the team apprehended him on a subway line before he could contaminate it.

[gayforjustice]

And your team was okay?

[prosekhodaphne]

They were unharmed, yes.

[gayforjustice]

That's a relief. I know that we take danger upon ourselves by pursuing serious criminals but that knowledge doesn't make it easier to accept harm to those around us.

[prosekhodaphne]

No, it doesn't.
