not particularly, in all honesty. i overestimated my ability to keep up with a thread this size while doing that chem stuff so many others seem good at ^^ that and i'm easily frustrated at things, as you well know
why?

Furthermore, I read through OWS's Aperture 4 filter, and there was plenty of sarcasm, lols, etc in that filter. If HF meant serious as opposed to easygoing, then I'd say the first half of that filter there are definitely posts where he's more serious than others, I mean he has to act like he's finding scum but he's definitely not uptight and there are posts where he seems relaxed and doesn't appear to give too many cares, so if he's getting that from Aperture 4 I'm going to have to disagree with him.
I would recommend reading the Aperture 4 filter and then coming to a judgement if you really are tentative on scum OWS. If you're getting that from filters in his earlier games, then.....I'd argue it's not reliable cause it was quite long time ago, unless you play with OWS off site or have some other information I'm not aware of.
right, right, i remember glossing over you saying this earlier. thanks

i mean i could be entirely wrong in terms of tone but regardless his approach to known lurker VA is so odd and ridiculous i can't really believe he'd ever write a post like that and then his approach to me is CERTAINLY different to VA given that he hasn't mentioned me at all previously

From what I saw from damdred it doesn't seem like mafia are actually hard-bussing each other(some say that he likes to do that, but for this exercise I'll assume he didn't) Using that and some arbitrary measure of what I consider pushing hard / throwing shit at each other I'd say that these people aren't mafia together(either town/town or town/mafia):
HF + Rsoultin. HF + Trfel. HF + Obi. HF + HTS. HF + Harkon
Ruxx + Trfel. Ruxx + Rsoultin.
Boxerfred + Clarity. Boxerfred + Oats.
I might've missed some interactions but yeah. Not sure if this is a valid line of thought, but I'm thinking that as more mafia flip we can see if this is a tendency that holds true or if they are all just playing individually separate of each other. Since that list is concentrating on HF, you and me - is there anything particular you want to point out?

Day 4
The missing evidence files corresponded to missing evidence in the lockers. There was no sign in / sign out entries for that day, and you can’t ask any of the aurors on duty in case they are also in on it. The description of the body and the muggle-repelling charms can’t have been what was being suppressed. You were there for both of those and didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary. You’ll keep an eye open regardless, but it seems clear: the dredge team managed to get something out of the water. You have a decent idea on what to look for.
The problem is, now it’s gone, erased from the records, and you don’t know who took it. Even worse, you can’t necessarily trust anyone else here in the precinct. This was an inside job. Evidence doesn’t just disappear like this without someone greasing palms and someone turning dirty. There are always some aurors who take bribes, of course. It’s usually about small things, and when it’s about big things, it’s usually not in your department.
Who got to your men? Is someone a mole for the criminals? Is that how they knew where you’d be when you were ambushed?
* * *
You look around at your gathered men. These are men you know you can trust. Chen is a muggleborn, and not embroiled in the politics of your world. Jackson is as honest as they come, and has a bad reputation for being unbribeable. Lieutenant Adams comes from old money and would never take a bribe. The four of you, together, will have to be enough. You’re not sure you can trust anyone else.
The dredging documents are gone, but the impressions left on the underlying page, when enhanced by magic, are enough to show what motions the quill went through as it pressed ink onto the disappeared paper. The information wasn’t much, but the type, size, and core of the wand were outlined. A quick trip to Stein’s Wands is enough to put a trace on it. He remembers the wand— he remembers all the wands he sells, of course, and the buyer is the dead woman. Someone wanted this wand hidden, and as Adams’ tracelog comes back, you see it’s still in the city.
With four cracks, the group of you arrive on the scene. It’s a broken-down looking tenement building in a bad part of the Muggle city. As you move forwards, you hear an incantation.
“Bombarda!”
Chen is down. You spin, wand in hand, and the next two curses strike Jackson, tearing him to pieces. You raise your shield just in time to block the Cutting Curse sent at you, and see Adams pointing his wand at you, a mean grin plastered across his face. I “Adams?” you exclaim, “How could you—“
“I was never your man, Chu. You think I’d grovel in the dirt like a dog for my bribes like the others? How do you think everything was organized? Someone had to be on top, someone good like me. Had to be one of us who kept his wand clean, just in case something like this happened. It was a lot of work, planting the evidence, getting you out here on a false lead, and— NO YOU DON’T, Expelliarmus!”
You grimace from pain as you’re knocked on your ass. Your wand goes flying through the air and clatters to the ground behind Adams. You thought you were being subtle with the starting motions for your Blinding Curse. How did he see you in the half-light? He lowers his wand and steps forward.
“Accio Wands”, he barks, and your spare comes flying out of your robes. Chen’s and Jackson’s wands and spares scuttle across the ground towards him, out of your reach. “Much better. Now we can talk.”
“Not bad, Adams,” You growl. “You have me at your mercy, but you haven’t killed me yet, even though you could. What’s your angle?”
Adams grins. “I could always use another man under me. You, like me, are above suspicion. I’ll offer you a chance to join us. We’re immensely powerful, and I’m just a piece on the board, but I’m a knight, not a pawn. I can get you in. Once you take The Mark, you can be trusted, even if you were on the straight and narrow before.”
His face turns soft. “I always liked you, Chu. You don’t deserve to die here. You’re a good man, and you’ll find that what we’re doing is for the best anyways. Sometimes, people have to die to make the world a better case. You know that as well as anyone.”
“How much do I get if I join you?”
Adams smiles. “Now we’re talking. I’m not in it for the money, but I know the way it works It’s actually on a case-by—AAAGH”
Adams tries to say something, but you can’t hear him over the report of your revolver. 5 shots later, you’re empty, but his lungs are full— with blood.
Now, strictly speaking a gun is inferior to a wand. You could have carried an additional spare, like some Aurors do. Still… the firearm has come in handy more than you’d like to admit. A typical pureblood like Adams wouldn’t be prepared for it either way. Who keeps shields up against a wandless opponent? So it’s good enough: you can’t cast spells with holes in your chest.
You rush over to him— you need to keep him alive so you can get more information from him— but he’s already dead.
Shit.
