Investigation 10

[afterthesky]

[Action: Mayfield shops]

[Sarah Jane can be found shopping for Christmas gifts. She occasionally picks up an item and places it in her basket.

Sometimes she picks something up and sets it back down.]

No, that's something Luke would like.

[Later in the day, her shopping expedition takes on much more focus and determination and she examines such things as paper supplies and makes notes.]

Yes, that might work...

[Action: In and around 2238 Stevens]

[Sarah Jane returns home from the shops and tucks her purchases into a closet before stopping in the living room to readjust the picture of her with Luke and his friends. Once she finishes there she goes back outside to hang a wreath on the door with a small shake of her head.]

[And Sarah Jane was always very observant]

Did you need something?

[No beating around the bush.]

You just looked . . . involved, is all.

[after-thesky.livejournal.com]

I'm trying to decide what would work best for a project.

[Because she needs a project]

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

Making something then. . .

[Edging closer. . .]

[after-thesky.livejournal.com]

A few of us have noticed a dreadful lack of any useful source of news.

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

I guess not. If there were anything to report. . .

[after-thesky.livejournal.com]

There's a great deal in the town that would be useful to know. The things the town itself would never circulate.

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

Then how do you figure you'll know them?

[He'll lean against a shelf, looking skeptical.]

[after-thesky.livejournal.com]

We want to circulate news within our own circle.

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

So things we know that the town doesn't think we know.

[He's just thinking about all Lucas knows about the town, now. ]

[after-thesky.livejournal.com]

Exactly. We need that to get as wide a distribution as possible. Information is power.

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

Someone had a letter like that once. . .

I'll ask my friend what he knows. He's been here a long time.

[after-thesky.livejournal.com]

I'd appreciate that.
