She reached out and started feeling for the outliers. The emotional fingerprints that stood out from the rest.
The other seven members of the Nine were out there. Not hard to find. One or two were interacting with some other outliers. The most fucked up people in this fucked up city.
Ah, yes, their nominees, I suppose.
Interestingly, only two of the nominations we’ve seen have worked out past the first contact stage, meaning some of the Slaughterhouse members may still have found someone else to nominate, if they’re allowed to do that. (Again, I doubt the Slaughterhouse are sticklers for rules.)
She’d studied each of these unknown outliers over the course of a week, watching their emotions shift as they went out about their lives, sometimes visiting the areas they tended to hang around, to get a sense of their environments.
Trying to get an idea of who your fellow members are nominating?
Slowly, she’d pieced them together, created profiles, discerned which ones had powers and described them to the other members of the Slaughterhouse Nine.
Ohh, no, this is earlier – she’s basically been a radar for potential nominees! That explains how the Slaughterhouse members found out about each of their nominees so quickly.
I like this.
