RP: Another Crime Scene
Who: The Werewolf Task Force
Where: A fair bit outside Lowestorft, England
When: Early morning, 4 October, 2024
Rating/Warnings: Mentions of violence
Summary: The Task Force investigates the new crime scene

Dylan had helped him out after the transformation and Ronan had gone straight to bed, praying that there would be no bad news and he could spend the day in bed. However, he wasn't so lucky. The watch rang around ten thirty.

He obtained the details from Peakes. An older woman had gone to visit her daughter and family to spend her Sunday with them and had found the all family butchered. She had gone straight to the Aurors. Peakes gave him the directions, before he went to call Callahan and Newton.

Ronan got up with difficulty, his body still in pain from the transformation, but there was no time for that. He told Ben that he was leaving, before getting dressed. He went to the hall and banged on James and Dylan's doors, making sure that they were getting up, and then one more stop, waking up Patrick for the potion. He didn't like it, didn't want it, but there was a difference between being able to function and being well enough to work.

He stopped downstairs to eat some of the leftovers. He didn't even know what he was eating, but he needed food, and finally, all three were able to join the rest of the task force in Lowestorft.

James had been preparing for this all month long. He knew what he'd see and smell. He had no illusion about the state of the bodies. He refused to react a second time, even if he could never eat while discussing the murder.

When he got inside, he took a cursory look, before stepping inside. He was careful to avoid anything that could be considered evidence, and noted everything he could.

No matter how much he had prepared, his stomach was in turmoil, and the sight of the smaller prints did nothing to stop that. However when he saw Dylan crouch down, his concern changed. This would be Dylan's first and his own first was too fresh in his memory not to know how it felt. He got close and squeezed Dylan's shoulder, without saying anything. They couldn't with Jasper around, even if the man didn't seem to pay them any attention.

Ronan followed the rest of the team inside. He still moved gingerly, body hurting, but refusing to let the transformation get in the way of his work.

He took in the scene using all of his senses, before closing his eyes, and breathing. The smell of the blood and sex was unmistakable, but under it, he could smell the werewolves, some very familiar to him, some new. When he was done, he looked at the two young ones. They wouldn't have time to feel sick.

"Dylan, James, I want you to transform and concentrate on the scents of the werewolves. If we ever get close, I want you to distinguish them, all of them," he said.

He waited for them to do so, before getting close to Jasper. "They won't smell the same when they are in human form, you know that, but if you pay enough attention, with time, you'll be able to tell them apart. I'll let Ignatius and Callahan know that they can come in," he said, before going outside, and calling the rest of the team so they could start cataloguing all the evidence.
