[Jolyne has once again been canonbumped, which means her life? Has just gotten a little bit more messed up. How so, you might ask? For one, she's been thrown into an ultra security prison ward, which isn't the nicest place to be. She appears on the Plane lying rather listlessly on a long wooden cot and looking far more worn than usual; the natural light of the area makes her squint and she shields her eyes until they can adjust.

At any rate, this is a pretty good opportunity to get some decent food that isn't bug-infested or growing on the wall, so Jolyne stands up... and almost immediately has to grab onto the cot for support.]

The upside, at least no one's gonna miss me while I'm here. [She pushes away from the cot and takes a few shaky steps.] ...The downside? At this rate I'm never gonna find that thing. [Mutter mutter]

[And his way of prying for details:] I had no idea that you were a criminal!

[allstrings.livejournal.com]

Hey, whaddya know! Me neither.

[solvethemystery.livejournal.com]

You suspect you have been framed?

[allstrings.livejournal.com]

Yeaaah, that's kinda already been figured out.

[And a slight shrug- it really is inconvenient that Yako isn't here, but a disguise has little point regardless, and it isn't as though you don't already know. He'll treat this with interest, seeing as how he hasn't had the chance to solve the mysteries of other worlds. Would they taste the same, bland, or perhaps better?]

There are plenty of possible reasons for your predicament- assumptions are the base of any mystery. With assumptions, it becomes possible to extract details that will prove or disprove certain points, leading to the completion of the puzzle. Some assumptions are obvious fact, treated with caution until they have been proven as such. Others are mere guesses, which must be followed up on within the course of the investigation.

An example! [GRIN, which to anyone that does know him well enough, means that he's amusing himself by degrading you.] I have no method of proving that you aren't a crazed arsonist!

[Siiiiigh. You get accused *once* of car theft, and *this* sorta stuff happens.] That's great and all, except I already know why I'm in here, who's responsible, and why I'm not leaving yet. The first two are moot points by now, so it's really only the last one that matters.

Besides, [Have a mildly amused smirk] I've got no proof you aren't an arsonist either, so I guess we're even.

[solvethemystery.livejournal.com]

I never claimed that I was not!

[allstrings.livejournal.com]

[Oh god wryyyy another weirdo.] ...oookay, then. That's, er... nice...

[solvethemystery.livejournal.com]

Will you then gather the facts to prove your assumption? [Sorry, this is how he gets his amusement. D8]

[allstrings.livejournal.com]

[lol, she's exhausted and mildly preoccupied and clearly thinks he's nuts.] My assumption being, what? That you're a pyromaniac?

[solvethemystery.livejournal.com]

Precisely that!

[allstrings.livejournal.com]

[Siiigh] And what if I don't really care either way?

[solvethemystery.livejournal.com]

Then you've simply disproven yourself.

[allstrings.livejournal.com]

Riiight, yeah. Okay then.
