inseine: (I'm close to solving this case)
Inspector Javert ([personal profile] inseine) wrote2011-09-23 11:03 am

VIDEO ✍ 009 --> Backdated to prior to the Dreamwalking event

[The entire announcement is filtered from Alice Liddell. The initial part of this video broadcast is made via official channels, with the caller ID exhibited simply as SCPD.]

Young women from their teenaged years to their middle twenties are cautioned to keep out of the dark. You have all heard the news by now unless you are blind to the papers. Or unable to read.

Walk in pairs, or keep a sturdy man close at hand. There will be no official curfew yet, but it is not wise to be out alone past dusk.

The Somarium Police Department is also accepting any worthy scraps of information concerning the recent murders. A reward of up to ten thousand credits will be paid to the most valuable spies. The identity of the murderer is top importance. All information concerning this ugly matter shall be sent to Chief Inspector Javert at the Government District Police Headquarters.

[This second message is made in the same backdrop as the first - a clean wall behind a massive, looming, dark and authoritative figure, files stacked beside him on what appears to be a desk. Chief Inspector Javert's jaw twitches subtly, the furrows between his brows lowering a millimeter or two. He is very tired and a touch melancholic, but calm and in remarkable control.]

There is a girl in need of a competent new caretaker. She is well-groomed, Christian, and under ten years of age.

Don't call me about it unless you have time and serious interest. I am not a pawnbroker for children; I will expect a faithful and fair commitment to the girl.

If that little girl you're referring to is Alice, I'll take her in.

Ah! Another one of her many acquaintances, [Javert mutters. His eyes narrow minutely, and he scrutinizes this Leon fellow through the video feed.]

You must understand you are in competition for Mademoiselle Liddell, Monsieur. [A pause. He looks at Leon very closely.] What is your age?
heartofalion: (Arms folded)

[personal profile] heartofalion 2011-09-26 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
Competition..no. Let Alice go where she's happy or where she chooses to. She doesn't need any more stress on her than she already has.

[Sighs]

I'm 28.

Inspector Javert...I've spoken with Dr. Javert—[only a little awkward, but he's still going]—and if you cannot find anyone more suitable, I will be willing to take Alice in. Though we not blood related, she does see me as like an older brother, and I treat her as if she were my real little sister.

However, I trust your judgment, Inspector. I just want Alice to have a loving home and I will check in on her regardless.

[Javert, who is a very blasé and extraordinarily calm individual, reacts only with a single, measured arch of his brow. It is the kind of poker face that unsettles a person, that makes them unsure of where, exactly, they stand in this formidable man's eye.]

--You were her family once.

[The Inspector rarely acknowledges any references to the alternate lives many of the denizens of Somarium have experienced. Perhaps Tamaki was not even aware that Javert knew so much about the Valjean family during that first 'extra life.' Well, here is a rather large hint that Javert pays attention to certain details that may seem insignificant or irrelevant to him.

Not to mention the fact that Javert has thought about Valjean (alias Fauchelevent) and his family members considerably over the past several weeks, with Cosette's death lurking over his broad shoulders.

Javert's jaw twitches almost imperceptibly.]


What did the good Doctor tell you?
spectaculaire: (Awkwaaaard.)

[personal profile] spectaculaire 2011-09-25 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
[yep, Tamaki instantly kind of irks and actually sits a little straighter at Javert's expression. he honestly wasn't sure what Javert had meant by that question.]

Er, yes?

[oh wait he's asking a question!]

Ah—that Cosette had disappeared and that you were taking care of Alice until you found someone more suitable for her to stay with.

You!

[It is an impetuous cross between a scoff and a cry. Inspector Javert once knew an Ezio, you understand, and he would never consider the fellow to be a suitable adoptive parent. Color him both repulsed and amused, though his expression curls with consternation.]

What services? [He manages to refrain from growling, speaking in a sharp, calm and commanding tone.] Come tell me what you know now. A promise of it is no use to me.

[Javert's eyes are cast down in a rare act of humbled respect toward Franziska, his lips twisted in a grimace.]

Nothing good, Mademoiselle Prosecutor. Unfortunately. Not yet.

[Not the answer she likes to hear.]

And there are still no leads within your own foolish investigation? Even after a month?

[She's just smiling sweetly over at you, Javert.

No reason.]

[This woman again.

Javert fixes a fierce and piercing gaze on the maid-woman.]


Well? [he prompts curtly.] Either speak or get back to your duties. What do you have for me?

I'm certain you already have many offers pouring in, but I would be committed to take in the girl.

As for information, I'll keep my eyes and ears open.

[identity profile] chose-death.livejournal.com 2011-09-25 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
That is appreciated. But be cautious.

[Well, Javert cannot say that a woman applicant for the caretaker position is not a welcome one. A man from the 19th century will always carry with him just a touch of old-fashioned sexism. He seems to bend closer to the video feed, his unwavering gaze examining hers.

He asks an abrupt, and perhaps rather strange question.]


Do you live alone?

[Naomi's response to this call comes much later in the evening. This conversation is more than a little awkward considering how little they have seen or spoken to each other in the last two weeks since Naomi's little 'revelation', but this is for Alice, not herself.]

Well, do you have someone yet?

[identity profile] chose-death.livejournal.com 2011-09-25 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
[Javert's brow gives a gentle twitch at Naomi's tone of voice, and there's a vague pinch at the corner of his mouth. It is, perhaps, one of the first hints to Naomi that the Inspector is paying attention... for once.

For now.

While his thoughts are focused on her.]


There are options. [He watches Naomi with a frown.] I have an idea of it. You will be relieved of your mothering duties before long.

Are you sure this person only appears in the dark?

Of course not.

[It is a blunt, concise, and rather alarming admission, despite how calmly the Inspector delivers it.]

But murderers tend to find the night more friendly than daytime. Both nasty affairs have been done during the night.

[Drake was well aware of the murders since Elena was covering this particular story. At least before she went into another sleep coma, anyway. So he had heard some details here and there when she went on her own little rambles- rambles that seemed to be her mostly discussing the details with herself.

He was worried about her involvement at first, though he hadn't admitted it to anyone, considering the targets; but Elena didn't fall into the supposed age bracket. However, it wasn't something he was willing to overlook just yet.]


Sounds like a tough case. How are you holding up?

[Not that he ever envied anyone having an honest/normal job, but this case was particularly gruesome.]

[identity profile] chose-death.livejournal.com 2011-09-26 04:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[Now, here is a familiar and not entirely unwelcome voice - one that isn't demanding for more information, for a hastier arrest, for a chance at taking the child. In fact, this call is of a different tone entirely. It is asking about his own personal health and well being.

Strange that it should come from Nathan Drake and not his own wife.

Inspector Javert is slightly taken aback by the question, and he regards Drake plainly, a deep furrow between his brows. What does the look on his face tell you, Drake?]


If I am to judge by the latest article produced by the Somni City Times? [he asks conversationally with a light touch of wryness. The aforementioned articles bore such headlines as JACQUELINE THE RIPPER ON THE LOOSE??? and POLICE SERVICE STUMPED IN GIRL MURDERS! He arches his brow calmly.] Splendidly. Courtesy of your Mam'selle's work.

[The murders... he doesn't have anything new to say about that, but the last part of the broadcast has him a bit worried]

Has it been decided who will take her in, sir?

There are options on the table. It will be decided soon. Why? [Javert asks coldly and calmly.] You want to enter yourself in competition?
