Rorschach's Journal, Day 79

[not_walter]

They mourn the concept of death. The sadness. The so-called pain.

There is good, and there is evil. And evil must be punished.

They gasp and gape at retribution, yet clamor for it.

One filthy sinner killed. Insignificant.

But he stayed dead, in this land of Lazaruses.

We'll see. See what the future holds.

'Land of Lazaruses'-- One who stayed dead in the City? Who could do that? That's impossible so far as I've seen.

[not_walter]

He who perpetuated the poison of this city.

Judas goat, perhaps. But a willing killer.

[misterblackbird]

Blitza Airflyer.

I see.

And he has stayed dead. Quite a hindrance to the investigation, I should think.

[not_walter]

Had him for weeks. Nothing to learn.

[valentineluke]

Permanent death does happen on occasion.

[not_walter]

Suppose it requires... luck.

Or perhaps the City is fond of true retribution.

[valentineluke]

Or you're one of Xulchilbara's ilk.

[not_walter]

Who?

[browning_baby]

It wasn't your place to do what you did.

[not_walter]

Should I have asked to be paid for it?

[browning_baby]

You should face justice for it, not be paid.

[not_walter]

What justice? The death of filth?

You dismiss your own behavior, blame it on ' the curse'. You would have me pay, and you walk free?

[vicodincrutch]

Where do you worship Sundays? Our Lady of the Explosive Message or Church of Polar Opposites?

[not_walter]

No god. No worship.

[vicodincrutch]

But you don't skimp on the morals or fragmented sentences. Huh.

[not_walter]

Find it easier to get to the point.

[not_alaska]

If you think his death is insignificant, you are more evil than he was.
