WHO || Dean Winchester, Rose, Damon, Archer, Helen, Wynn
WHAT || Doppelhunt 2014
WHERE || On the trail of Kyplena
WHEN || June 9th, onwards  [backdated]
HOW || Actionspam

The first twenty-four hours of searching yielded no results, in the hunt for Elena and the escaped doppelganger Kyp.  Most consider it not worth keeping up the search when both of them are capable of vanishing into literally any crowd, but Wynn isn't so quick to give up.  To that end, he's hired monster hunter Dean Winchester to work with a special team in trying to track them down.  A few other Knights familiar with Elena are invited along to the mini briefing, where Wynn and Dean already wait.

[ Damon usually goes for the more direct approach. He's a little surprised Helen didn't jump right out and say, mother-daughter, etc (INT 18), he knows they should've appealed as more pleasant but worried. But she jumped right to "grave danger." So, that's what he's going to do. ] Because, the guy my sister was with is bad news. [ (bluff 22). ] Her name's Elena. She has straight brown hair. And she's missing.

[daredtobelieve]

[Mothers overreact all the time, Damon. Calm down. Have you ever had a mother???]

Please... It's so important that we find her. I've been worried sick.

i have to

[unforgivably]

[ She died of consumption. Your brackets are whore brackets of whoredom.

That is all. Damon damn sure looks worried, however as ... he waits for a response. ]

[likedillinger]

[ "You got a name for this guy?" he asks. ]

[unforgivably]

Kyp. He might've used a different name. He's a guy of may faces. A real con artist. [ Get it? Get it? Also, not lying. But, diplomacy 13?? ]

[likedillinger]

[ "There's no one here by that name. I can't let you beat down every door. Do you have a picture?" ]

[littledhampir]

And you really think being American authorities in England was going to work better?

[Seriously.

Rose follows suit, falling into step with Dean as they start for the car.]

[daredtobelieve]

[Mental note: Begin instituting a Knighthood Yearbook so we can keep up to date photos on hand of all knights.]

I'm afraid not. She would have arrived [On whatever day the surveillance footage said they did... insert that here.] Please- the person she's run off with could get her in a lot of trouble. We need to bring her home. [Diplomacy 35]

[ dean easily busts that shit open (disable device 20), and hits the lock open so that rose can get in the other side to do a search check.

the hotel clerk hesitates but finally says: "Look, I want to help you, you just have to tell me what you want here, and I'll do what I can. We really can't bother every customer." ]

[unforgivably]

Is the room Elena stayed in unoccupied?

[likedillinger]

[ "I told you, I've got no idea what room she was in. There was no 'Elena' signed in here." ]

[littledhampir]

[Assuming that Archer is keeping an eye out for movement which is probably a bad life choice Rose starts rifling through the glove compartment and other areas of the car (Search 18).]

[daredtobelieve]

If you can show us the list of names for who checked in within the time frame they likely arrived, perhaps we can sort out what name they might have used. [damon, shh. the grown ups are talking.] Would that be acceptable?

[unforgivably]

[ Okay, that's a good plan. He waits for a reply. ]

[likedillinger]

[ as the desk clerk turns to print out said list, dean and rose rifle through the interior of the car. the search is disappointing and it's pretty clear right away that it's going to be. dean doesn't do much more than glance under the seats, etc, while rose takes a more thorough route, checking between the seats, in the back, etc.

everything they find indicates that the car belonged to someone else, and rose's check is high enough to make sure she realizes that everything in there wasn't left by kyp or elena. dean slams the door shut in annoyance, turning to look towards the building.

the list of names includes:

barry gibb
amanda lear
---------
ruby linden
charles linden
---------
joseph myer
adelle myer
stella myer
----------
adelaide rieger
herman riesmann
---------
frank lester ]

This one. [Helen points to the Lindens.]

Are they still here?

[unforgivably]

[ He sees where she points, not exactly knowing why Ruby and Charles would stick out to her, likewise Linden... But, if she's right ] What room did they stay in?

[likedillinger]

[ "Room 113. But they checked out this morning, according to our records." ]

[unforgivably]

Was Ruby short, about [ he brings a hand to his chin. ] Straight brown hair? [ dip 13 ]

[likedillinger]

[ "Huh? Naw, she was blonde, if I remember. Tall blonde." ]

[daredtobelieve]

[Damon, what part of doppelganger is hard to understand??? Helen gives him a quick, slightly judgmental look before nodding at the clerk.]

And the others? Are any of them still checked in?

[Making a mental note about room 113, though.]

[unforgivably]

[ Their picture was taken together looking like themselves when they checked in. Wasn't it? Or... was it just a traffic camera. Because his 1 INT check means he's completely fucking forgotten if that happened. And there are zero mental notes here. ]

[likedillinger]

[ "All of the last 3 rooms haven't checked out yet." ]

[daredtobelieve]

[Helen nods, looking at the names again. Only one pair among them, but perhaps Kyp is smarter than they think.]

I know it isn't orthodox, but if we could speak to them, perhaps we could find her- or at least some idea if anyone else here has seen her. Would it be alright if we had those room numbers?

[likedillinger]

[ "I'll write 'em down but no promises that they're in their rooms right now." he obliges and pushes the list over. ]
