[Video] [Locked to New Hires only] [TW for Punishment in the linked log.]

Stacia, Armstrong, I need to see both of you in person. On the double. Five minutes ago. Anyone else with a real good sense of smell, you come see me too.

[On the camera, underneath his oak tree in the garden, Bunny has a little bit of that dead-eyed stare that comes from being reminded how thoroughly shackled they all are to the most banal form of evil. Mostly, this is just businesslike, direct. Calmly urgent, after his furious meltdown in the Executive wing got him nowhere good.]

Everyone else: Sam and Dan and I tracked what attacked Tenten and Setsuna into the Executive wing. I smelled it there recently before the suits caught us and kicked us out.

[There's no real reason to bring up their Punishment. It happened, it hurt, he hates that he dragged Dan and Sam into it, but they all knew it was likely to happen. And if anything they learned can help prevent any further damage to the kids, it'll have absolutely been worth it.]

I couldn't identify the species, but it's supernatural, and old. Older than me. Some variety of predator. Given we tracked it into areas we're not allowed to go, and it spent a lot of time wandering around there all leisurely, it either looks enough like a suit that they gave it a pass, or it can walk through walls. If I had money, I'd put it on walking through walls. I'm not ruling out both, though.

But don't worry. Jorgmund's bringing in - [he scoffs, and rolls his eyes hugely] dogs to finish tracking it.

I'm still racking my brains to see if any memory of what it could be falls out, but if any of that rings any bells for all you, I'm all ears.

Gotta say, in my world shit don't walk through walls unless it's a straight-up phantom, and those don't give off a scent, so I've got jack on leads.

[He holds absolutely zero ill will against Bunny for roping him in; having a sense of purpose is such a nice change of pace from this tedious, trundling corporate existence.]

All I'm coming up with is something undead, but I'm pretty sure you'd have mentioned already if it reeked of death.

[He frowns at the screen.]

So they don't intend to even let us properly hunt this thing down? We're just supposed to sit on our hands and hope no one else gets mangled?

[If they won't even let Bunny sniff it out, he doesn't imagine they'll let him have his sigils on the Rig long enough to prepare a spell that might help in tracking it. Fuck.]

Might be good time for an information campaign? We can protect our own and maybe politely alert the folks who ain't in the brass here that they need to be keeping an eye out. It's just a shame that we don't have any better advice about something coming to kill them than just "don't get killed please."

On my way.

[Bunny said "five minutes ago" not "as soon as you can grab an escort", so whatever he needs to tell her in person must be of dire importance. So Stacia runs, using the steady ground-eating pace she'd developed over years of cross country practice and competitions. It gets her there double-time, and not even breathing all that hard. She calls out when she spots him, per her usual "don't freak out the prey animal insticts" etiquette.]

Bunny, I'm here!

My sense of smell is about as good as any other human's in this shape.

[This is important though, so she only sighs a little as she backs up a step or two and crouches down.]

Keep an eye out for any full-fledged Jorg employees for me.

[Stacia shifts, but not to Crinos. This time, she goes all the way to Lupus. She's small for a wolf, just like she's small for a human, but a wolf is still a wolf, not a dog.

She sits up politely, so that Bunny can present her far more sensitive nose with the bit of blanket.

I'm on my way, but I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you if you're hoping I can help sniff it out. I can't tell the supernatural from the inside of a shoe.

Can you tell what kind of flavor we're looking at? Avatar of a god? Demon?

Sulfur, I can spot. Demons where I'm from don't usually smell of that, but I'm not discounting that when we're here.

[Things Armstrong never thought he'd be doing: Rushing to the gardens to get a deep whiff of the Easter Bunny. But there he is, trotting on up like he hadn't just been pounding down the halls at top speed. He picks up their conversation just as smoothly as if it'd always been in person, though.]

Gods don't generally do their own work where I'm from. Don't know why. [He is, of course, not privy to the Ban.] I've seen two and that was one too many.

There's always the possibility the entity involved may just have security codes but something Tenten said caught my attention - apparently her attacker was able to dismiss a weapon away into nothingness.

I'm not saying that this being is from my world or has similar origins, but back home there was a spirit of vengeance, supposedly created by -

[He gestures vaguely because grife he knows how this sounds.]

By the Judeo-Christian God, to execute those who were guilty of murder. This Spectre was supposedly an angel of wrath who slew the firstborn children of Egypt in Earth's Biblical history. He was a terrifying reality manipulator, capable of warping circumstances around his victims to kill them in ironic punishments appropriate to the way they themselves had killed their own victims.

He ultimately could not be stopped until we found the -

[Another deep breath.]

The Lance of Longinus, that supposedly was anointed with the blood of the Christian messiah figure. To use to seal the being away magically. Due to corruption by the soul of Adolf Hitler, one of Earth's worst genocidal demagogues, it had to be wielded by one of the team's most selfless individuals, as only the pure of heart could remain uncorrupted long enough to seal the Spectre away.

[Ugh the scientific skeptic in him is screaming after saying all those things, but his point:]

My point isn't that this being is identical to that, simply that the possibilities are endless and potentially extreme. The Legion never could've anticipated a being like the Spectre until actually encountering it for the first time and discovering its history on Earth.

This could be someone altered by Stuff, but the fact that other realities apparently superimpose onto this world means a variety of dangerous magical or supernatural influences, or unknown species, could've found their way into it. We must be prepared for a wide range of possibilities including those beyond our comprehension or anticipation.

[Sam listens to this, nodding slowly. It doesn't entirely fit with what he knows of his own world. But, then, he's never asked Castiel if it was a single angel who carried out the deaths of the first-born in Egypt or if it had been more of a group thing.]

Angel is...less of a stretch than I'd like it to be. Being able to manipulate reality would certainly explain it walking through walls. Of course, it being able to do short distance teleportation would allow for that as well.

[He sits back from the communicator, considering.]

Of course, it might not be something supernatural at all. Not straight up, at least. It could be magical. Or something else, even. Or, as you said. It could be somebody altered by the stuff.

[A pause, then a sigh.]

Guard duty and everyone making sure they don't travel alone was a good first step but if corporate won't let us track the attacker, we may need to be more proactive and create conditions that provoke them to attack.
