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.

[Yep. One of those looks right here, Archer.]

Told you she's not the Elena you thought you knew. [Straight-faced because she knows Archer isn't actually joking. That said... Back to Archer] But Elena wouldn't do that.

[One day Rose will learn that people don't always do what she thinks they will. Elena breaking Kyp out of the dungeons case in point. ANYWAY!]

Just, pay close attention to anyone coming out of their rooms, especially if it's two people, regardless of whether they're male or female and if somebody starts yelling about a missing car, get as much info as you can.

[It's faster than arguing over who is doing what.]

[isisagent]

[Archer rolls his eyes at Damon.] Thanks for the cliffnotes, buddy.

Then he smirks at Rose.] Well I hope you're right, for your sake. You're the ones going in there. Keep an eye out for trip wires, I don't want to have to bring you back to HQ in pieces. [He's disturbingly nonchalant about this whole thing.]

[likedillinger]

Yeah, sure. Just try not to draw attention and we should be fine. [ and he'll look at helen ] Who's got the empty rooms?

[unforgivably]

[ He. Might. Hate. You all. ]

[daredtobelieve]

[Turning away so that Damon and Archer can search the lot on their own, she addresses Dean and Rose, looking more than a little exasperated.]

The only room number I got for sure was 113. If you want to know the others, we can go back and ask. Or I can try to get him away from the desk and let you two have a look at his book on your own.

[littledhampir]

No it's alright. [Shooting Dean a look that was meant to code for 'don't push'.] We'll search that room and talk to the people in neighboring rooms. One of them must have seen something.

[likedillinger]

Yeah, fine. It's a start. [ and he'll go START TO LOCKPICK??? ]

[daredtobelieve]

[Helen will attempt to keep an eye out but she's a tad distracted. (Spot 12)]

[littledhampir]

[Yes, get on that lock picking Dean and if it weren't for the fact that Rose was a Dhampir, yeah she'd be missing everything with that atrocious roll but hell yeah modifier. (Spot 16).]

[likedillinger]

[ luckily there is... literally no one out at the moment, so dean pops the lock and looks back over his shoulder at them, nodding his head at the door, before opening it slowly. ] We're in.

[ he disappears inside, flicking on the light. for anyone who follows him, the motel room is pretty stereotypical, the beds freshly made, and nothing in sight. dean walks through it slowly, taking a look here and there and frowning. ]

[littledhampir]

[Rose moves in after Dean, taking in the room for evidence of the previous guests. (Spot 26.)]

Think the maid has been through already?

[likedillinger]

Looks like. Not gonna find much of anything in here if they have been, unless their maid service is as crappy as their paint job. [ he checks under the bed, but rose is the one to notice the two body shaped depressions are both in ... one of the beds, not both separate ones. whoever slept here didn't bother to use the spare bed, they just shared. ]

[littledhampir]

[Rose's eyes narrow, shoulders tensing and a hand jerks out, the universal sign for 'gimme'.]

This isn't their room. [But... she doesn't sound completely sure of that.] Give us a look at that list of names again.

[likedillinger]

What makes you so sure?

[littledhampir]

She wouldn't have shared a bed with him. [Will Save Nat 20. That face is giving nothing away.]

[daredtobelieve]

[Helen's not quite so ready to assume that's the case. There's no telling just how much control Kyp has over the situation, what lies he had spun to Elena's impressionable mind.

She doesn't say any of this, of course, but she'll go poke around in the closest and the bathroom area to see if there's anything there. (search 20 total).]

[likedillinger]

[ nothing appears to have been left behind, nor is there anything out of the ordinary to be discovered. dean shrugs, gesturing for the list as well. ] So who's next?

[daredtobelieve]

[Helen hands it over for them to look at, not having much of a preference on where they went next.]

[likedillinger]

There's too more couples on here. "Barry Gibb and Amanda Lear" and "Adelaide Rieger and Herman Riesmann". [ he looks up, frowning ] Adelaide and Herman? Probably not those two, unless they decided to disguise themselves as the denture-wearing set. Kinda makes it look fishy if they gotta make a fast exit, and they suddenly drop the walker.

[daredtobelieve]

I've known many respectable Hermans, thank you very much.

[Very important commentary over here.]

[littledhampir]

So we start with Barry Gibb isn't that a Bee Gee and Amanda... Though I doubt this is the kind of motel that checks the number of occupants so we can't rule out the others either.

[likedillinger]

Hell, for all we know, they're toting their little doppel lovechild around with 'em. [ the poorest taste of jokes. is what that wisdom roll of a 2 gets him. someone is gonna murder him before this mission is out . ] Room 118. Let's go.

[daredtobelieve]

[Helen simply presses her lips into a thin line at the comment. Her eyes immediately go to Rose, just in case she needs to... stop her from hitting him tbh.]

[littledhampir]

[Welp. That Will Save wasn't amazing but at least she didn't crit fail so despite Rose's head snapping around and a look that would kill if it could, there are no black eyes in Dean's immediate future at least.]

Enough. [Intimidate of a whopping 35.] You don't joke about that where they're concerned, not ever, not if you wanna keep breathing. [Her hands clench and unclench at her sides.] Are we clear?

[likedillinger]

[ his will save was a ... 22, which is still impressive in general, so he doesn't LOOK afraid... much. ] ... As crystal. [ he moves to the door and starts working on the lock, but a commotion from the direction of the offices distracts him. he frowns in that direction. ] Someone wanna see what that is?
