Arthur
TFLN
No one I will get to know personally, honestly. Why I am glad for better company.
And why is that?
I don't control a city here. Yet. I spent a lot of years building up that town to what I needed it it to be. When I find out who is behind it, I'll end them.
They've threatened hundreds.

It's very scientific and not at all biased - I was born and raised in New York City.
In the short time I've known you, I can tell it won't take long at all for you to make it yours.
I don't doubt it for a second.
[ Interacting with vampires like Josef and Kol and whatever Adonis was as King of Hell was still new for Arthur. He was sure, between the three of them, no doubt they'd taken hundreds (or more) lives, and unsurprisingly, he would put his trust behind them more than this other person.
It was similar to the criminal underworld - you quickly knew who would sell you out to the highest bidder and who you could and could not trust. If it meant one less crazy vampire in the world, then it was worth it. ]

Figured the latter before the former.
They tell me you're good at information. Are you as good as they say?
no subject
I am arguably one of the best. What are you needing?
no subject
I still have the list they gave to the killer... with the names of 400 of my people on it.
All of LA's vampires were targeted. Some got out. Not everyone.
I have a hard drive. I believe it has information from the contractor on it. I got it from the person that set the explosives.
Thing is, it's booby trapped from what my expert tells me and they don't feel safe trying.
Would you?
no subject
Ah, I see. Did he say how it is booby-trapped? Is it a physical explosion or a complete computer meltdown?
Either way, I would take a look. I have methods I could deploy for this but it would take time to get all the pieces together.
no subject
All I've got it time. So do they, I suspect.
My guess is they had an issue with me nearly having control of the West Coast, and definitely working on it.
They've always had a large portion of the East and South. I think they're making a move.
no subject
[ It was only a shame there wasn't internet access by the ruins of the Overlook. He'd love for them to try and pull information from that place. ]
And they didn't worry that you would try to take over the east coast in response?
[ That's at least what Arthur was assuming and it wasn't anything he wouldn't do if he were in Josef's shoes. ]

My poker game and my penthouse - along with the rest of the building - went up. I just happen to be smarter than he thought and had a secure bunker escape.
I will start with Virginia where he is, and go from there. I'm only leaving the south because the brother already took that and I know it has to piss him off.
no subject
It's always good to have multiple exits and backup plans in case someone gets the drop on you. At least, that's been my experience.
I'm sure it would. It seems to piss... what, another brother off? How many people are in that family?
[ He's sure Peter sent him an entire file on it but for once, he hadn't looked through it yet. He's surprised too. ]
no subject
A very quick rundown?
Mikael and Esther are the parents. She's a witch and he's... the original original vampire of their line. A curse by the mother to save them all from being killed as her youngest had.
So then there is: Freya, Finn, Elijah, Niklaus, Kol, Rebekah, and Henrik.
Henrik was killed when they were humans and is why the mother made the curse... thought to be a blessing, of course. Freya vanished when they were children and is believed to be dead. She was gone when even Elijah was born, I believe.
Finn is his mother's child, except she has a spine. Klaus is the hybrid. Turns out mommy dearest had an affair with the local pack leader. When he was turned with the curse and then he killed, he became a werewolf hybrid. He's a monster above all others, and in ways their Kol would never be. He's a killer, not a monster.
Elijah would like the world to think he's a gentleman and a scholar and the patriarch of the family. He's as much monster as Klaus, if not more. Klaus is blatant. Elijah is devious.
no subject
Here I thought the Royal family was fucked up.
So, Klaus and Elijah are the ones that need to be watched closely. Good to know.
[ Arthur never thought he'd find himself intrigued by a vampire. He hadn't been nearly as intrigued by Adonis (though he could see the appeal) but there was something about Josef that had drawn him in. Maybe it was his fashion sense, he's not sure. ]
no subject
Yeah, absolutely. One's a madman and one is half wolf.
Of course, that's coming from the man that held L.A. and most of the west coast and was a leader in his own right. Perhaps a madman as well.
Just not like that. They're kind of the standard of what I wont' do.
no subject
Glad to know you are at a different standard, considering I'm heading out soon to see you.
Eames and I were career criminals and there are only a few things that will turn me off but that isn't one of them. At this point in time.
no subject
We were hedge fund managers in the 80s.
I would say all vampires are dangerous. Not all of them are a threat though.
I can be both. I choose to mostly be one, until my own are hurt.
I think I once talked to an acquaintance of yours. About weaponizing my thoughts. I admit, I did a little research through my own channels.
no subject
Of course you were.
From what I have come to understand about vampires, that makes sense.
Oh? Who did you speak to? And what did you find out in your little research?
