WHAT || The Knights assist the FBI in investigating some mysterious creatures
WHERE ||Tennessee
WHEN || April 2nd [back dated]
HOW || Actionspam. Single thread, don't worry about maintaining tagging order.

While scams about genetically modified corn wouldn't normally fall under the purview of the Knights, the US Federal Bureau of Investigation has called in assistance from Wynn because of reports of the two agents investigating the matter running into some sort of Shadowkind that attacked them at the silos containing the corn in question.

The Knights fly out to Tennessee to check out the situation, and Christos drives them directly towards the silos in question, which are three lonely, old looking structures set in the middle of a field far away from any other civilization.

If they are, it would explain why they wanted to run us off first, ask questions later.

[bowtimeandspace]

Teenagers. Crop circles that is. It's usually teenagers. [ Alien teenagers sometimes, but still... teenagers.

He steps back over, frowning a bit. ]

And if it is, is there a good reason to disturb it? Probably wouldn't be best pleased if a whole band of lizard people popped into your local maternity ward and moved around all the babies, now would you?

[agentspooky]

Don't get me wrong, I'm not suggesting we disturb anything. But I think the situation warrants confirmation, don't you?

[keptbiting]

Oh, I do. [ of course she does. in it to win it with agent mulder. ] He's right, Doctor. As are you. But we cannae help them if we don't know the full scope of the situation. [ there's something in her tone that implies the "them" she wants to help are the lizard folks and she makes pleading puppy dog eyes at the doctor, wheedling. ] Come on, Doctor. Geronimo.

[opprobrium]

And if their aggressive, we burn the bitch to the ground.

[ Sebastian...NO.]

[bowtimeandspace]

[ He was maybe coming around to the idea a bit until that. He gives Sebastian a rather severe glare. ]

No we do not.

[believethelie]

If they're hostile, I think we focus on containment. [ opennnning the silo doors, and drawing out her flashlight to shine the beam inside. it's dark, smells heavily of corn, and the floor is covered in a few husks here and there. ]

[keptbiting]

[ amy crit failed her spot check so there is a good chance she is just staring at mulder with heart eyes. ]

[opprobrium]

[(Spot 16) Sebastian looks unimpressed.]

[bowtimeandspace]

[ And wow, sorry the Doctor also crit failed, so he's probably still looking in the opposite direction or something. GO TEAM. ]

[agentspooky]

[ mulder got a 17 and fowley got a 23 so they're at least actually looking around actively here i guess. they train their beams around the interior, stepping carefully around but coming up with... nothing. at all. ] I don't understand... There aren't even any tracks.

[keptbiting]

[ MAYBE IT'S SPACE FACE.

oh right though, she's supposed to be looking around and not at mulder's downright precious confusion. right. job to do. wait, wtf does no tracks mean? ]

Maybe... Lizards shed, yeah? If they've been here long enough maybe they've shed a skin.

[ otherwise, how do you look for something that doesn't leave any tracks? ]

[bowtimeandspace]

Or maybe they just don't want to be found. Look at you lot, bumbling in here. How would you like it if somebody popped into your bedroom and started rifling through your sunday best?

[keptbiting]

Says the bloke that crashed into my garden and chucked all my food out of the house 'cause it was rubbish.

[bowtimeandspace]

Well it's not my fault you couldn't cook me something decent.

[keptbiting]

I was seven!

[ ah doctor/companion bickering. you know you all wanted this in your lives. ]

[bowtimeandspace]

Well you're not seven now and you still can't cook.

[ Best mission, clearly. ]

[keptbiting]

[ amy responds with her favorite insult not about his bowtie. ]

Martian.

[bowtimeandspace]

[ Scrunchyface. Such scrunchyface. ]

Ginge.

[ SORRY WERE THEY SUPPOSED TO BE DOING SOMETHING IMPORTANT? ]

[keptbiting]

Hey! Discrimination is rude, 'specially from a mad alien bloke that thinks bow ties are the height of fashion.

[ SHOTS FIRED. ]

[bowtimeandspace]

Bow ties, Amelia Pond, are cool.

[ And he tweaks it. Because that's important. Please somebody stop them. ]

[opprobrium]

I like the bow tie if that counts?

[ Sebastian muttered, granted, he still thought they should burn the place. Fire cures all after all.]

[agentspooky]

[ a beam of light streaks across amy and the doctor and the camera pans over to see mulder staring at the two of them exactly like this

!!!!!!!!!?????????? ]

[keptbiting]

Aliens, Agent Mulder, I will have you know, are highly overrated. [ she crosses her arms, deciding that yes indeed, she is going to be very cross and no one can stop her. they've found bollocks, they can't very well track something that doesn't leave tracks, and she's fairly certain that she's being punk'd. ]

[agentspooky]

[ mulder finds his words as christos fucking glares at you all, moving to the farthest end of the silo he can. he doesn't need a flashlight. he sees in the fucking dark. ] Aliens. [ mulder gestures towards the doc ] You're saying he's an alien?
