[A link is dropped to share her location on the map, watching it just a couple of seconds will reveal it's actively mapping her movement back towards town. There's even a little avatar replica of Dart - that’s moving quite quick - on the software. She's about 15mins outside of Repose.]

I promised that I would keep you updated if I found anything and I also told you that I was a man of my word, so here we are. I didn't learn a lot but I did pick up a few things that might help us. Or they might make things all the more complicated, it's yet to be seen.

And how is the shoot going? Well, I hope.

[Dante Z.]
Hola. ¿Como estas durmiendo ahora? Sé que no necesito preocuparme por ti, pero espero que me hagas el humor de todos modos.

[Holly NW.]
Gracias for your assistance at the site, and for sharing your thoughts with me. I'm a stranger to you, more or less, so you didn't have to do that. I just wanted you to know that I appreciate it.

[Aubrey R.]
Hey, Sarge. Mind if I pick your brain for a minute?

[Audrey C.]
Hello, Audrey. I'm sure you're receiving a lot of random messages from people you don't recognise or remember, but hopefully you can tolerate one more. How are you?

[Rafe J.]

I can't recall if I mentioned but I'm going to be out of town for most of the next month. I'm sure Zee will be fine, but all this is somewhat new to her, and I wouldn't hate knowing someone drops by occassionally, if you'd be willing.

[Separate locks to: Noah NW., Atticus M., Hannah S., Dante Z]

Leaving tomorrow for my next project; I'll be back first of July-ish.

[Audrey C.]

How are you feeling?

WHO: Hugh & Dietre
WHEN: Evening, prior to Audrey being found.
WHERE: Hugh's bedroom.
SUMMARY: Cartoons, distractions, heavy petting, and some conversations.
WARNINGS: I don't believe there are any.

( ...As you don’t have a Dmitri, will a Dietre suffice? )

[Locked to Mayers+, this includes Amy, just as it includes David]
going back in. i won't have a phone for a bit. [He gives the number of the same place he was at before.]

[Call: Amy M]
[Ring!]

ETA: [Locked to Hugh C]
hey, can i talk to you a second?

[...]

[...]

Hello, I am Audrey Carpenter, but I am pretty sure most of you know that. Um.

I'm not really sure what to write here, but I was told it'd be beneficial for everyone, so here goes:

My memory [...] isn't what it was. The doctors said it can happen after [...] unpleasant events. They're not sure when or if it will come back, but they'll be working with me closely over the next few months.

I get out of the hospital in a week or two, I'll be moving in somewhere with my cousin?. [...] I am going to be reading through old posts to try and see if it helps at all, and to re-familiarize myself as best as I can.

So, I guess this is a re-introduction of sorts, and so no one gets too confused if I don't recall who you are.

Hi.

Also, thank you to everyone who looked for me and came to the hospital. I was told it was a lot. Oh, also. Whoever found me? Thanks. I can't remember your name.

[Forum: Public]
What weekend is Pride in The Capital and who's heading out that way? Should we arrange a group thing? Carpooling? Party bus? I'm sure we can make the trip just as fun as the party out there.

( Texts to: Hector, Georgia, Ivy, Diego, Hugh & Leena )

If only the beauty of spring would continue on through summer minus the miserable heat. I am not looking forward to it. Aside from that, well… I won’t jinx myself by saying anything more than life is relatively decent.

I have not posted anything in a while, so I thought I’d share something a little different than my usual.

Out of the mid-wood's twilight
Into the meadow's dawn,
Ivory limbed and brown-eyed,
Flashes my Faun!

He skips through the copses singing,
And his shadow dances along,
And I know not which I should follow,
Shadow or song!

O Hunter, snare me his shadow!
O Nightingale, catch me his strain!
Else moonstruck with music and madness
I track him in vain!

- Oscar Wilde

Who: Dante & Hugh
What: Making Cake!
When: Before April 9th.

Ratings/Warnings: Language. Always language.

[Hugh C.]
Muchas gracias to you for keeping me in the loop, of course. Will you be visiting the hospital any time soon? I know Casey said they're not allowing non-family in but some hospitals are less strict about that than others.

[Dante Z.]
¿Cómo te sientes ahora? No pude evitar notar que te veías extremadamente cansado cuando estábamos todos reunidos en lo de Hugh.

For those of you who are wanting an update of Audrey Carpenter.

She has been found, she is currently at the hospital and is under observation until further notice. The hospital is not allowing anymore visitors other than family. I'll be at the hospital daily and if there is anything that anyone wishes for her to have, please let me know and I'll see to it that it's taken care of.

Thank you for all of your help and I'll do my best to keep everyone updated.

[During this. He already had his phone in-hand, but, the thought pops into his head. Hey, there?

Yeah, he was here. Holly doesn't hear Noah, so much as have his thoughts right there, in his head.]

Audrey? What the fuck? Are you okay? [He knows the dude is. Physically. And he knows how Holly's feeling, but it's reflex.] Do you want me to call Hugh or something?

ETA: [Call: Hugh C]
[Once he's done running, Noah tries to get the water inside, but is relegated to the waiting room. He decides to call Hugh. Ring.]

[Locked: Hannah S, Casey C]
[Locked separately.]

We found Audrey. She doesn't seem to remember any thing or who she is. She's at the hospital now

[Locked to Jamie M]
Hi, Jamie. I think you're out of town? But when you're around, I kind of wanted to talk about something with you?

[Locked to Si M]
[Once she's back in Repose for a few days.] I think I found a good place. It feels good? Bright good. No dark shadows in the corners or bad feelings, and it's an apartment, so there isn't even a basement. Hi.

[Locked to Rey S]
Hi. I just wanted to thank you.

[Locked to Hugh C]
Hi. Has anything new happened? I'm back in town now.

WHO: Hugh C., Dante Z., Leena B., Zee L., Rafe J., and Dietre A.
WHEN: After this and this.
WHERE: Hugh's house, Lakeside.
SUMMARY: Summary Narrative of chat discussion of finding Audrey's phone (and a few unrelated to Audrey surprises) written from Hugh's PoV.
WARNINGS: I don't think there is anything? Maybe language, cause Hugh.

( None of this is normal. Welcome to Repose. )

[Dante Z.]

Hi, are you busy?

[Dietre A.]

Hi.

[Rafe J., after Dante sent him the Agatha Christie Motherlode of questions]

I'm trying to make a list of everything we know right now, if/when you've got a few minutes maybe you could help me fill any blanks I've got?

My cousin, Audrey Carpenter has been missing since Monday!

A file has been started with the local police precinct.

If anyone has seen or heard her from recently please reach out to me or the police with any information that you know of. It would be greatly appreciated.

[Group Lock: Casey C and Hugh C]

Hello, Casey? My name is Zee and I live with Hugh. He's going to be available shortly but I told him I'd give you what little update that we can. Have you had any luck or heard from her? Hugh says the house was empty.

WHO: Hugh & Rafe
WHEN: Mid-morning, following these conversations.
WHERE: Audrey & Hannah's House.
SUMMARY: Following Audrey's disappearance at Hugh's place; Hugh and Rafe go check to be sure she didn't just go home.
WARNINGS: Expect an X-Files vibe, ok.

( Audrey would probably be halfway through some baking project and he'd feel stupid. )

WHO: Hugh Christian
WHEN: Immediately following this, slightly after 3am.
WHERE: His bedroom.
SUMMARY: Something triggered Theodore's wards.
WARNINGS: Language, nothing too much.

( The noise was insistent and not his regular alarm. )


[Text: Audrey C, added around 3:30am]

-- Where did you go?
-- Audrey, darling, please answer me if you have your phone.

[Text: Rafe J., added around 4:20am]

-- If you've got a moment this morning I could use some professional related advice.

[Texts, sent separately in the early morning, after talking to Rafe: Noah NW and Hannah S]

Has Audrey contacted you today?

[Following this].

[text →audrey c.]

-- Hannah told me there's something with the house, I'm on my way, I'll knock when I get there, but don't worry about stuff, we'll figure it out when we get here, ok?

[text →zee l.]

-- Zee Bee, you're probably asleep, but I'm going to go get Audrey and bring her back here.
-- Hannah says there's weird shit going on at their house. If you get this before we're back, that's where I am, and i'll be back shortly
