When: through april
Where: various adi locations
Summary: getting bearings, snooping, probably offending some people
Warnings: will update with!

► LIBRARY

( hearing that there was a library was a good thing. she hoped. the vague information that quill had been given so far sounded both bullshit and just another tuesday but that seemed to sum up her existence now. which made information more important.

and she could handle a computer. granted, she didn't know exactly what she was searching for but she'd uncovered interesting (and disturbing) things on less before.

except after her first couple of searches, clicks and maybe a bit of a rabbit hole she'd ended up on ancestry. it wasn't what she'd been searching for, didn't have a relation to what she'd initially googled. and actually was more confusing than anything )

How's this supposed to help anyone?

( and why would anyone want it to? family history? endless searching that probably wasn't relevant or related? sounded awful )

► CANTEEN

( the last time she'd come over for coffee she'd ended up distracted by something else and hadn't actually found the coffee. this time she was beginning her search again, poking at what was nearby and generally missing the coffee machine that's probably right next to her.

it's not entirely her fault, she's not familiar with one and is used to making it herself. which is probably why there's some irritated muttering as she keeps looking because how is it so hard to find something.

clueing her in is probably as risky as it is helpful. good luck )

► FLOOR B3

( considering that quill can't actually use any of the weapons available you'd think it'd be torturous for her to look. it is, a little at least but what soldier would she be if she wasn't at least a little informed about the defensive capabilities of what was here.

besides, she can still hold them to see how they'd work even if that's all she can do.

though she happens to come down when someone's getting training -- of knives of all things. it's interesting to watch, sad in some ways and-- the last throw might have hit painful )

The balance is wrong.

( of the knife. did they know she was there? whatever. she's observed enough and at least what's happening isn't entirely the trainee's fault )

Probably badly made or kept. It makes the landing harder.

We can plug it into our search parameters; it'll help narrow things down. I'm going to guess... maybe 1940s, if the car looked really different? But if that doesn't get results, we can try other date ranges, too.

[She types as she speaks, not tearing her eyes from the screen.]

We'll figure it out. I'm pretty good at this stuff.

[vrituom]

You do this a lot?

( it's sounding like it. not that quill was judging really, she'd done some wild research before (a lot) but not on a dead boy. she tried to not find out weird things, they ended up finding her enough )

[citizendetective]

I'm a Citizen Detective.

[She says this with no small amount of pride.]

So, yeah, kind of! Especially with cold cases like this one - just, uh, without the help of psychic visions.

[vrituom]

Most people try and stay away from death or weird things.

( quill also tries to... she just never seems to have much success with it given what her life has become )

[citizendetective]

Well, that'd be pretty silly in a place like this, right? Everything is weird, and there's death everywhere!

[And doesn't she just sound chipper about it.]

I mean, the options are basically get used to it, or hide in your apartment. And even the apartments aren't totally safe.
