One, if Kyle didn't tell you already, they got Jumbo Carnation's killer in custody.

Two, Laurie was going to Michigan with Hope Abbott over the weekend. They are now missing and from what I'm told they aren't showing up on Cerebro either.

Start in with your contacts, any info on their whereabouts is priority. Start with finding one Telford Porter. Last info on him was when Tabitha blew up his brothel in Madripoor.

One, thanks for the heads up. I'm still leaving people at the deli and on nights at the shop. The electronic surveillance is good enough for days.

Two, making phone calls now.

One of my guys in Plymouth says a man matching Porter's description popped up in Montserrat by way of Puerto Rico. Seems Porter's got some tell-tale tastes and habits? Another's got him purchasing the services of a select group of hired guns (they're not awesome, but they're effective, I've run up against them once or twice) out of Colombia. Last known destination was Antigua, but that was a couple weeks ago. I'll keep looking - managed to blacklist him at Hellhouse, so nobody taking jobs from Patch will touch him.

Yeah, that squares with what I remember of the guy - prefers not to get his hands dirty, considers himself some sort of mastermind. (He's really not.) He's that kind of guy that thinks flipping around a butterfly knife makes him look hard, but isn't the kind to actually use it.

He's a teleporter (I know, ridiculous given his name), so he can be kind of squirrelly.

I dislike him on principle - we have any idea what he's going to be doing with them now that he's kidnapped them? Crazy Frank says he didn't sell my keris.

Only you would buy a knife from a guy named Crazy Frank.

Well, when he kidnapped my sister, it was for leverage against me to get in good with the Black court.

Crazy Frank sells all kinds of toys, but he takes special orders. Bet you can't guess what I'm getting you for Christmas.

Yep. Totally shooting him.

Is it dick-in-a-box? (I either make stupid jokes or I tear up my entire apartment)

It is not a dick in a box, but now I'll have that song stuck in my head, thanks.

Forwarding you the deets for one of my aliases not wanted in the Caribbean. Porter apparently blipped out after the knife sale but his lackeys are supposed to meet him somewhere and they're not scheduled to leave for another week for whatever assignment he's got them on.

Motherfucker just bought up half the shipment of knives I had waiting for me in St. John's - what the fuck, I know why I need that many knives, but he doesn't even know how to use an Indonesian keris and I wanted that for my Miami house. Am I allowed to kill him? This is a mission where I can kill somebody, right? It took me forever to find a keris with a bone sheath that matched the handle.

Yes, I am one hundred percent on board with putting Porter in the ground. I should have done it last time. Given his powerset, best bet is sniper rifle - hit him before he knows we're there.

Assuming we can get the bastard in the crosshairs.

Oh, I can get him in the crosshairs, don't you worry. You just pull the trigger.
