[QUOTE="pathfinderq1, post: 4099979, member: 48394"] Even as Drigg spoke, Sven heard a voice deep within himself shouting out in agreement- but he had heard that voice before, and he exerted his will to squelch it, before any hint of enthusiasm registered on his face. Instead, he kept his normal worried, hangdog sort of look, and raised one hand in placation. "[COLOR=DarkRed]I ain't saying that ain't so, but we still need to hand this off, at least for now. If we don't let the University take charge, at least on the surface, they'll be sending the Inquisitives after us.[/COLOR]" He looked back down the corridor, and at the crowd of other witnesses. "[COLOR=DarkRed]Now even if that kid I sent goes right quick, it'll be a bit before somebody actually shows up...[/COLOR]" He dropped his voice to a whisper, so only his compatriots could easily hear. "[COLOR=DarkRed]Now why don't a few of you sharp-eyed types see what clues there are- but don't touch nothing, or take anything important that could point to any of us later. That way, they can do their looking, and we can do ours, without getting in each others way.[/COLOR]" With that said, he turned to the growing crowd. "[COLOR=DarkRed]So did anybody out here see anything weird going on- or see anybody else going in here, or leaving in a hurry?[/COLOR]" He hated being at the front of the group, being the center of attention, but the inquiry might let his friends have a few moments to investigate without interference- he _really_ wished he had some kind of uniform or insignia to make this look official....
