[QUOTE="Thomas Hobbes, post: 1520833, member: 8623"] John pauses momentarily in discomfort and opens his mouth as if to comment, but Lisa has changed the subject and he follows her. He's been thinking for a while about this, and he's fairly certain he's gotten as far as he can with the data he has. "Well, here's what we know: a bear, or something in the shape of a bear, killed two people near the full moon. It might have been an actual bear, but the facts are that they're non-native to the area, there were no bear escapes, and that it's difficult to just miss a bear if there is one. Also the timing. "There are two lycanthropes in the area. One's the wrong species, so he's out as a suspect, although he might have some idea of what's going on. The other's the right species, but took the supressants." John frowns. "Something to check, whether we have more than her word on that." He then shrugs. "But she has no motive not to take them." "So if it was most likely a lycanthrope and none of the local ones fit, then it must be an out-of-towner. We check for people who arrived before the full moon before the attacks and didn't leave until after. Or are still around." He leans forward, resting his elbows on his knees and his chin on his folded hands. "What do you think? Does it all work?" [/QUOTE]
