Did anyone actually manage to get a word in with Sergei Smirnov? He grabbed my arm while I was walking down the street last night, but he vanished before I could even react to him.

And filter your damn replies. I feel like this goes without saying, but just... double check,

Yeah, I talked to him for a while.

[Filtered]

[glowing_science]

Could you tell me what he talked to you about, Kay?

[Filtered]

[thief_of_truth]

He said something like... 'he made the sky bleed.' I think he was talking about Grady.

Re: [Filtered]

[glowing_science]

Made the sky bleed?

Metaphorically or literally? [In this place, either is possible.]

I did see him, but he disappeared before I could speak with him too. He was trying to stay hidden, but he wasn't doing a very good job at it. He might have been injured.

[Filtered]

[glowing_science]

I didn't notice an injury--I didn't get to see him long enough--but other people have referred to the fact that he was missing a hand.

Where was he trying to hide?

[Filtered]

[perfektsymmetry]

Just out on the streets. I've been, ah, doing some intel work for the Major General, when I came across him.

[Filtered]

[glowing_science]

Ahh. That's right, she mentioned you when she told me who was working intel with her.

I just recently volunteered to do the same.

[Filtered]

[glowing_science]

I wouldn't be surprised if they don't.

I'm still going to keep filtering, though. Doubt is no reason to be careless.

[not filtered, because Mukuro doesn't care]

We actually had a long conversation about how he was tortured.

[Filtered]

[glowing_science]

Tortured? Did he say how? By whom?

[rogue_pineapple]

By neglect, it's a technique I am familiar with. I assume they're responsible for his stubby hand.

[Filtered]

[glowing_science]

[Ema's taking this down.]

By neglect, got it. Did he implicate anyone specifically?

[Filtered]

[weaponsparked]

... Maybe that's what "escaped" recently.

But no. There was just a man standing on the porch when I got home. He disappeared before I could speak to him.

Re: [Filtered]

[glowing_science]

Probably.

It's strange how some people have had conversations with him while others have not.

[Filtered]

[weaponsparked]

Maybe he just didn't have time to talk to some... If his popping in and out was on a timer, or something.

Re: [Filtered]

[glowing_science]

That's possible.

Either way, I don't like this at all.
