2025.01.19 03:55 sadnesslaughs Agent Selene Percy was a criminal profiler with 15 years of experience, so she had no doubt that the Nightclub Stalker and the Siren, had begun to stalk clubs together. Their chosen prey was making it hard to get cooperative witnesses. Their prey? Men that didn’t like the word no.
“Ugh, I hate these drinks.” I wiped my lips, wincing at the taste of the cheap whiskey cocktail they created. The sweet liquor, they added, doing nothing to dull its flavor. They called this a cocktail? If this was a cocktail, gasoline and rainwater were a seltzer. I tapped at the table, wondering who these killers were. They could have been anyone, from the pimply faced guy doing the macorina, to the drunk brunette tripping over her heels. All I could say for certain was that the Night stalker was a male, and the Siren was a female.
As I scanned the crowd, I saw something that made my eyes roll. “Undercover cop.” I muttered, spotting the man slouched over the counter of the bar. There he was, trying to blend in with the crowd of patrons, wearing a backwards facing fishing cap and a pair of light blue shades. He feigned drunkenness, doing his best to slur his words as he asked for another drink.
A tactic like that worked on idiots, but not killers such as these. You don’t avoid the police for five years by being sloppy. That’s why I didn’t hide my presence. I wore my badge on my jacket, still wearing the same uniform I wore to an earlier crime scene. I wanted them to know I was here tonight.
To think the Night stalker had been doing this for five years now. I almost had to admire him for that. The man changing cities constantly, making it impossible to detect his next hit. He even changed his method of transport, sometimes flying, sometimes driving and sometimes smuggling himself into areas. There was no single person who stood out in our investigation. That’s why I came here tonight.
I still remember the first murder he did. The public praised him as a hero. There he was, a true gentleman that stood up for women everywhere, someone that would make creeps second guess themselves. Even I had to admit I was happy to turn a blind eye to that first case. The victim had deserved it, and while it may not have been professional of me to think that, I’m still human enough to feel it.
The first three killings could all be deemed justified in some shape or form. Some called him a vigilante in our office. I preferred the word junkie. As much as I grew up wanting to be Batman, I understood the fundamental reason you couldn’t have a Batman in a realistic setting. The world isn’t Gotham. We don’t have masked criminals running around causing chaos. We have people. People who are complicated. Eventually, this vigilante would turn into a junkie, and my hunch was right.
He had a taste for the fame and now needed more hits. Suddenly, the reasons for his killings grew hazy. A man swore at a woman after being rejected, only to turn up dead the next day. A man made a rude passing comment about someone, again dead the next day. Piggish behavior, no doubt, but worthy of death? Abruptly he was out of the media feed, with his supporters sheepishly moving onto the next trend, while the news only occasionally mentioned him, not wanting to hinder our investigation into the man by letting him in on what we knew.
Then the Siren came. Again, headlines flashed up, and the public reception was mixed. Unlike the Night stalker, the Siren didn’t come into this for just reasons. She simply enjoyed killing from what I understood. She would lure men into her bedroom and kill them. Men who had done nothing wrong, other than wishing to spend the night with company. No violence, no aggression, just loneliness.
She was relatively unheard of before joining the Night stalker, only really known to us investigators. If I had to guess, she was using him to boost her own image, and while it wasn’t professional of me to make baseless claims, I also believed she was the one turning the Night stalker into a trigger-happy killer. Though, with no evidence on that matter, all I could do was sip my drink and wait. Would they reveal themselves tonight or target someone? Only time would tell.
A hand drifted along my shoulder as the person behind it sat in front of me. She was stunning, with long curly blonde hair, hazel eyes, and a faint hint of blush on her cheeks. The red dress she wore showing her body off to the world, and she didn’t care one bit. She was a femme fatale, in every sense of the word.
However, the looming shadow behind me diminished her allure. I could feel their posture, the wide stance of someone that was breathing down my neck, ready to make a move if I did anything stupid. While I had back up nearby, I told them I would text them if I noticed something strange. I doubt that text would be possible now with that man behind me.
As much as I wanted to see the face of the Night stalker, I resisted the urge, sitting my hands on the table, as if I was waiting to be cuffed. I showed them I had nothing on me, not wanting to cause an unnecessary accident.
“Detective.” she cooed, leaning forward, placing her hand on my cheek. “Are you still looking for me?”
That sly grin, the way she wanted my attention only on her. There were two reasons why she could be doing this. One, she wanted to protect her partner’s identity, or two, she wanted all the attention on herself. “I came here for the Night stalker. You were a secondary target.” I responded, taking a stab at the second reason.
She pulled her hand back, lip twitching at my remark. “Well, we come in a pair now, don’t we, honey? What’s yours is mine and all of that.”
“That’s right, honey.” He said, disguising his voice with a fake air of gruffness, like a child trying to sound like their favorite bulky wrestler.
She didn’t even look at him when he responded, keeping her attention solely on me. “Now, miss detective. I thought a woman would understand what we’re doing.”
“Don’t try that. I’ve been to enough of your crime scenes. There’s nothing righteous about what you’re do. The Night stalkers, the one that had the world captivated, you were only another crazed killer. I should be talking to him, not you.”
She snatched my hand, crushing it in her grip. When I winced, she tightened again, pulling my hand across the table towards her. “You sound like you really hate me. Have I offended you?”
I gritted my teeth, unable to respond. Anything that came out would be followed by a squeal of pain, a sound that would be heard even over the beats of the music. If I attracted unwanted attention, I would most likely end up dead.
“Honey, I think you’re hurting her.”
She glared behind me, releasing my hand. I pulled it back to my side, seeing the nail marks in my flesh, as well as the small droplets of blood slipping from the nail marks. “Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to hurt you. I just get so frustrated sometimes. It’s like people only talk about the Night stalker, even while I’m doing the same job that he’s doing.”
I wanted to say so many things to her, but she was getting agitated. One wrong word and she might lash out. I held my tongue, looking for an escape route. If I shoved myself back, I could probably make a dash into the crowd of dancers. I doubt they would give chase. Yet escape seemed cowardly. I had the killers in my grasp. I only needed some help to capture them. Looking at the bar, I kept my eye on the undercover cop. That was my help. If I could grab his attention, I could capture them.
“What job would that be?”
“Cleaning up the filth. We kill those that do the wrong thing. If anything, we do your job for you.” She fluttered her eyes, knowing that would get under my skin, and it did. We weren’t perfect. A lot of crimes remained unsolved, even when we knew the person who was responsible. It was a problem with the legal system and one that made us often wish we could take the system into our own hands.
“Did all those men deserve to die?”
“Of course, you’ve read the Night stalkers’ early cases. Those men deserved to die.”
“I’m not only talking about the early cases. What about the recent ones? What about Brandon Forner? A man the Night stalker killed after he had an argument with his girlfriend.”
“What?” The man behind me gasped, as if he had only just found out about his own killing. Did he not even know why he killed that man to begin with?
Before I could answer him, the Siren cut me off. “Brandon hit his girlfriend. I pointed that out to my honey, and he took care of it.”
I had to be quick. I needed to expand that doubt. “No, we watched all the footage from the club that night. Nothing except words were exchanged. His girlfriend Sarah said as much. She even admitted to us that the argument had been about something petty, something they had made up for before he was murdered that night. He was an innocent man.”
“What?”
“Is what all you can say?” The Siren hissed at her so-called honey. “Are you going to take her word over mine?”
“I…” The man fumbled through his words. “He didn’t seem that aggressive when I confronted him. He seemed very apologetic about it before I-“
“Before we killed him.” She clarified. “Go get us a drink. You’re useless tonight.” The man slumped his shoulders, dragging himself to the bar. Now that he wasn’t behind me, I could see how massive he was. Giant shoulders, hunched posture, and muscular arms. He could have torn my head off with his hands. That thought alone made my stomach turn.
I eyed the beer taps, looking for the one closest to the undercover cop. “Can you get me a Lemon Sunrise? This drink is making me a little sick.”
He nodded and strolled over, rather casually, for someone that had killed so many people. When he left the table, I felt something poke my stomach. She let the gun hit my stomach underneath the table before moving it into her lap, silently telling me she had a way of keeping me in place.
“How long have you been manipulating him for?”
“Five years. I was going to kill him like the others, but well, look at him. He’s dumb and strong. Lets me expand my range of targets.” She smirked. “I just gave him a sob story, and he was willing to do whatever I asked. At first, I picked people who would make us look like heroes. Then, when the public was on our side, I was free to kill whoever I wanted. The lines were so blurred by that point that the public couldn’t figure out the truth. Many wanting to believe we were still doing good, even while I randomly picked our targets.”
“I see.” When the Night stalker ordered our drinks, the undercover cop glanced at him, peering back at our table. I made eye contact with him and looked down at my jacket, hoping he could see my badge. I then directed my attention back to the Siren. “So, do you love him?” I pointed to the Night stalker.
The Siren turned her head, and when she did, I pointed my thumb at the Siren, the Night stalker, then at my badge. He squinted under the darkness of the room before his eyes widened, turning back to face the bar, pulling out his phone.
The Siren's tongue pushed against her front teeth in revulsion when she looked at the man, swiftly turning back towards me. “Of course I don’t love him. He’s a tool. Don’t worry, detective, you’ll live on in history. You’ll be our first female victim.”
The Night stalker placed our drinks on the table, and before I could take a sip from mine, the Siren stood up. “What’s wrong, honey?” The Night stalker asked.
“We’re leaving. She’s coming with us. Make sure she doesn’t do anything stupid.”
“Why? What’s she done wrong?”
“I’ll explain that all later. You have to trust me, sweetie.” She stood up and, with a lot of reluctance, kissed his cheek before pointing to the exit. “Detective, come with us.”
The Night stalker gave me an apologetic look as I rose from my seat, being led outside. As soon as we made it to the carpark, police sirens flashed on, with officers rushing towards them, drawing their guns.
“YOU BITCH.” The Siren went to pull her gun, only for the Night stalker to wrap his arms around her waist, keeping her from doing anything reckless.
“Honey, they’ll shoot you.”
“Don’t honey me. I’ll kill her. Let me kill her.” The Night stalker kept her from drawing her gun, even as she kicked at him and tried to break his hold. He saved her life. Had she drawn her gun, she would have been killed in seconds. I rushed over to the officers, watching their arrest.
The undercover cop came out, offering his hand to me. “Dillian Vander.”
“Selene Percy.” I struggled to shake his hand, my body wobbling after the near-death experience. When I latched onto his palm, I held it for dear life, using it to gather my composure. “Thank you for helping me back there.”
“Thank you for catching our biggest unsolved mystery in the last ten years. I didn’t think they were going to show. How did you draw them out?”
“I took a guess.” I said, undermining my 15 years on the job. It had been a highly educated guess, but still a guess at the end of the day.
“Seems like more than a guess. You alright?”
“Yeah, just a little exhausted after everything.”
“You should go home and rest. I can drop you back to your place if you need a lift.”
I smiled, shaking my head. “No, I’ll have to start the report on this. They’ll need as much information as I can give them before the interrogation. I would also like to be available if they need anything. We can’t risk them slipping out of our hands, not after all the work we’ve done.”
“Got it. Try to take it a little easy, regardless. Don’t overwork yourself.” He tipped his hat to me before going and talking to one of the other officers. I collected my thoughts and went to my car, ready to go discuss the details with my superiors.

2025.01.19 03:55 Maleficent-Flow-1877 Should I get this 2018 SR?
Hello everybody. I've been waiting a sentra for a while now I think this might be a very good option. I'm not new to nissan but I am new to the CVT. From what I can find anything 2017 and up is pretty good and 2020 is the best. I can't afford a 2020 in my area but this one cought my eye. The Carfax looks good and service records look good too. It's from Pennsylvania then came to Utah. My question is would you buy this? And if not what should I look for in other sentras? Thanks!

2025.01.19 03:55 Epiphxney How do I say this gently?
My girlfriend and I have been together for just a little over a year now, when we started dating I'd say her general cleanliness was pretty alright. However, over the last 3 to 4 months she has started to become quite messy and put on significanct weight to the point her bed room looks like a land fill, I've suggested to help her pick it up but she says her anxiety is just too much when she starts to clean. On top of that, her body hygiene has become very poor and it's starting to effect our romantic life. I just feel like so much has changed and I can say with full confidence that if these were the conditions going into this relationship, I most certainly would have not entered into it. She's a very sweet gal, but frankly, it's disgusting. I'm not the cleanest person, I have been known to have clothes on my floor and the occasional empty can laying around, but I feel this just outrageous.

2025.01.19 03:55 Malkivak I'm Unhappy
I have been trying hard to keep my marriage. I tried to tell myself and everyone else I don't believe in divorce. I'm not all innocent in my marriage and I admit that. I drink and enjoy it. Let's start from the beginning. Sensually my wife gave me promission to play doing the things she's not comfortable with. I went to bar. Got drunk and played. Done. She holds that against me. But forgives. My sex life disappeared trying to be fair. She gets in accident. Doesn't follow up. I'm busy with my job. License for both gets suspended. OK fine. We will work together. I'm the only one working. She depends on SSI. Fuck! The worst part is she doesn't keep the house clean. My patience is running thin. I'm sure I've endured more than most men but FUCK! Like I've said. I'm not 100 percent innocent. I've gotten drunk and thrown my ring at her. Ive cheated on her once. The thoughts have been there to to it again. But I want to be a better man.

2025.01.19 03:54 showme_yourdogs First Amtrak Ride ever
We will be taking an Amtrak for the first time ever, from the South to the North. Specifically Oklahoma City to Williston North Dakota. I am looking at getting a Bedroom for such a long travel time (I really hate sharing bathrooms). I did have some questions though after watching youtube stuff.
1) Are the trains consistently late? The train from OKC to Chicago arrives at 1:44pm on a Saturday, and the Chicago to Williston leaves at 3:05PM. Do I need to stay overnight instead to make sure we don't miss our train?
2) We are going to travel with 2 suitcases (28x18x12) and 2 backpacks, and possibly an extra bag. Are those going to be a problem on any part of the train? I think we have to go coach to Ft. Worth, then the bedroom to Chicago.
3) In addition to the baggage, we have a standing walker. While using it on the train is obviously not going to happen, will it be a problem to have that in the baggage storage?
4) I think the Bedroom comes with the meals included? What about the Cafe part, is that always available?
5) Do we have to figure out how to transform the beds and such?
6) How well does the temperature control work in the Bedrooms?
Any answers would be welcome, thank you.

2025.01.19 03:54 Donald_W_Gately Seeking a 49Forty fitted equivalent (7 5/8")
I take it the 49Forty style has been discontinued. I've tried the 39Thirty, 55Fifty, and 55Fifty Low Profile but nothing has fit and looked like the 49Forty. 39Thirty feels closest but looks too small. Someone tell me why the 49Forty was taken from me! I've seen that others share my frustration (e.g.: https://www.reddit.com/neweracaps/comments/tzg95t/49forty_discontinued/?ref=share&ref_source=link
Has anyone found something like the 49Forty in another brand? I'm getting desperate, especially now that the new dog forced my hand to toss one that was overdue to be tossed.

I honestly have no other place to share this, so hi! Long time lurker who got into the game during summer 2024 and I am a Xavier main. It also just so happens that I am currently somewhat feeling like I am losing my mind. I just so happened to get rafayel’s intertidal zone memory veryyy early (I want to say it was around 32 pity). Like ok we LOVE that, hello Pisces king <3 But unfortunately due to my insane need to satisfy my dopamine receptors, I have been trying to reel misty silhouette xavier home with precise wish. I am now currently at 82 pity with no xav in sight and have roughly about 15 diamonds to my name. So here comes the dilemma: painful signal came out and I am genuinely at a loss for words over Caleb. I did not expect this to happen but he's so fine. The current banner is ending very soon and I think while typing this I have made a decision: I am going to not pull anymore. In the meantime, good luck everyone and stay sane 🙏
Sincerely,
Xavier and future Caleb main (TBD)
