What. The bloody hell. Is going on?

[bye_to_yer_head]

Alright. Want me to meet you?

I can't talk like this just so you know.

[prpl_assistant]

Sure. Near the fountain, in ten minutes time? We'll work something out.

[action]

[bye_to_yer_head]

Will do.

*He'll be waiting by the fountain, a small border collie type dog, laying on the ledge with his head on his paws.*

[action]

[prpl_assistant]

[Oh. Oh dear. Does he realise how cute he looks? She loves animals, and seeing a collie there almost had her running towards it to give the adorable thing a few cuddles and pats on the head. However, she doesn't lose her head. She bites her lip and does her best not to laugh, or scream with delight, because this collie could well be, well...

Sniper.

So she takes a deep breath before she approaches and asks:]

Sniper? Is that you?

[bye_to_yer_head]

*He barks and wags his tail. Considering even Spy tried to pet him he's aware of what he looks like.

He hops off the ledge and pads over to her.*

[prpl_assistant]

[Must. Not. Pet. Must. Not. Scratch Ears.]

Are you alright? Bark for yes, and shake your head for no.

[bye_to_yer_head]

*You know you want to~~~

He barks and plops his butt down next to her, looking up at her and tilting his head.*

[prpl_assistant]

[No, must not...give into...temptation...]

Are you still up to searching for his gun? I won't let anyone know that it's you, I promise.

[bye_to_yer_head]

*He flicks his oh so skritchable ears back and forth while panting happily.

He barks again. He's not sure if he can sniff out a gun but he's sure gonna try.*

[prpl_assistant]

[You fiend. It's taking all her willpower just not to give him a tummy rub. She clears her throat.]

Would you be able to sniff out the gunpowder? Or do you need the RED Sniper's scent?

[bye_to_yer_head]

*Maybe he could sniff out gunpowder. He's not really sure. He walks around in a circle sniffing the ground, he makes a few snuffling noises and then looks up. They should start at RED's house first.

He barks and then trots off to RED's townhouse.*

[prpl_assistant]

[She follows him. Hopefully they won't be met by any of the other RED members, because this would be hard to explain. They reach the door and she looks at him.]

Can you smell him from here? Or would you need another sample?

[bye_to_yer_head]

*He sniffs around, his wagging tail smacking into her legs. He barks once and slowly trails away, nose to the ground.*

[prpl_assistant]

[Well, it looks like he's got a lead. She walks behind him, keeping her eyes open just in case.]

[bye_to_yer_head]

*He stops when he comes to an intersection. Trotting back and forth, trying to get the scent back. He ends up inadvertently sniffing her shoes. Oh hey... that smells nice... no wait. Back to work.*

[prpl_assistant]

[She can't help but giggle when he does that. But oh wait, yes, back to work.]

Can you find the scent? I know it's faint, but it's probably our best chance.

[bye_to_yer_head]

*He whines and sits down next to her, ears drooping.*

[prpl_assistant]

[Oh, don't pull that face Sniper. She can't help but sit down next to him and give him those ear scratches.]

It's alright, you did a good job. Maybe we can follow one road and see where it leads. Hopefully you can pick up the scent again.

[bye_to_yer_head]

*He barks and starts to get up to try again but then... oh yeah... that's nice. He leans into the skritches, closing his eyes.

Wait wait. Stop that. He pulls away from the hand petting him, but doesn't get up.*

[prpl_assistant]

[She smiles and gets up herself.]

Let's try that road. Maybe there's a clue somewhere.

[It's a gamble, but better than doing nothing.]

[bye_to_yer_head]

*He gets to his feet and puts his nose to the ground, sniffing around again, his tail wagging.

So far, nothing.*

Search montage?

[prpl_assistant]

[She doesn't give up either. She'll lead the Sniper around the place, in hopes of finding something. And that's when she suddenly realises something.

They might not be able to sniff out the RED Sniper. But whoever that man was, he was definitely very violent. He left the RED Sniper in a bloody mess.

He must smell of blood.]

Sniper. Can you smell blood anywhere? Not just the RED Sniper's, but anyone's.

/cues up the quirky music

[bye_to_yer_head]

*Oh. He hadn't really thought about that. Sniff sniff.. oh wait, that's her shoes again. He sniffs around before catching a scent and dashing off. He sniffs up to a closed door and barks.*

Eye of the tiger!!

[prpl_assistant]

[Quietly, she takes out her revolver and advances to the door carefully. She whispers to him:]

Can you smell anyone on the other side?

[bye_to_yer_head]

*He sniffs again and shakes his head. He puts his cold nose on her hand and tries to wedge himself inbetween her and the door, just in case.*
