[obligatoryass]

Logan and Meg made a list prioritizing the servants they need to talk to. It was easy enough to leave out the bulk of the cleaning staff, the kitchen staff and the stablehands. From there, things got a little complicated

Meg looks up from the pages, and pages, and pages of notes she has taken, lines perfectly straight across the unlined paper, handwriting clear even with the unfamiliar pen.

(One interviewee got so rattled watching her write down everything he said that she had to stop, so that they could get anything from him but stammering.)

"Cast of thousands."

Meg sighs.

"Maybe when we finish with whoever's next, we should take a break, see if there's something we're missing?"

Logan leans back in his chair and rub a hand across his eye. "And get some tea or coffee or something," he agrees. "I'm starting to see double."

He eyes her notes. They're much more detailed than his, and will take much more going-over, but he's okay with that. It's the details that count in situations like that.

"I'm glad you're here," he says.

In strange situations, Meg plays to her strenghts. And takes notes.

"Thanks.

"Tea would be helpful."

She laces her fingers together, stretches them out, and then picks up the pen again.

"Right, who's next?"

"Uh," Logan says, flipping back through his notes. "James Archibald. Wonder if he goes by Jimmy or Archie? Or if the bypassed those altogether and just call him Jughead."
