[Counter to her last post, Mary is calm, composed, put-together, an iron look of determination in her eyes.]

If you've called someone and gotten their voicemail in the past three days, you need to comment here and tell me who it was.

I don't care if you think they got sent home, if they have an alibi, if they're supposed to be on a week-long vision quest, I don't care. If there's someone, anyone who you can't get ahold of and isn't absolutely definitely accounted for-

[Mary stops, folds, unfolds her hands. When her sleeve pulls back slightly, you can see a pair of handcuffs around one wrist.]

There might be another Hunt going on. We have to figure out now how many people are missing. Rationalizing where they might be, telling yourself it's not a big deal- forget that. We don't have time to second-guess.

I'm starting the list with Yosuke, Bigby Wolf, and Jesse Turner.

[Her hands are shaking a little. She grits her teeth slightly.]

Michael, everyone from last time- if you know where the grounds are, please. We need to stop this.

[Hey Mary? Guess who has Jubilee lojacked, and got a page from her anyway. So while it's Jubilee's NV, it's him replying.]

Mary. I can confirm Deadpool and Bruce Banner are missing. If they have decided to hunt either of them, it will be a mistake they won't repeat.

I will thank you to not upset someone who still have profound injuries or suggest suicide as an answer to a treatable medical problem, although given the decisions you've made with your life, I cannot say I'm overly surprised.

And while you might not have a moral objection to it - we do not make a habit of using those we call friends as a "fix it" button. Michael and Lucifer are aware of Jubilee's condition. If they wish to help, we we all be grateful. But we will not ask, any more than I would ask Jubilee to stand in for a flashlight or expect Robert Drake to stand in for an ice machine. Although if you believe you simply have a right to place such demands on them, perhaps there is a reason so few angels have anything to do with humans in your world.

I also suggest you remember not all of us want to cheerfully be citizens to a prison.

[And with that, he'll block Mary's NV from Jubes, until he feels like changing it or Jubilee pitches a big enough fit.]

Thank you for once again demonstrating an incredible grasp of priorities in these dark times.

Don't let me keep you. Go screw yourself, or whatever it is you do with your days, and let the adults deal with a crisis.

'Dark times'? These hunts? They happen back home. They have for years.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have a patient to see, a godling to wrangle, and other things to do which don't including plotting a terrorist act on a public, unsecured network.
