Oof. In Triverse it's more common for you to time jump on chapter breaks, so I was expecting this chapter to start with something more like a press conference, or the officers in debriefing. The style break very much worked in this chapter.
Dammit, Jones, you had an opportunity to do the right thing, and let your partners lead you astray. Oh, well. It has to happen for the author to rachet up tension for the arc, but I'm disappointed in you. I hope you change your mind and come clean down the road. It'll be too late for the immediate consequences, but...
You're very lucky one koth had reason. Otherwise there'd be another three wounded/dead koth, three dead cops, and one melted car.
Fucking Miller. Making Millers look bad.
A video camera circa 1973/4... Unless there's Max-Earth tech, we're looking at a 1/3" CCD, going to, probably, a 3/4" tape. The zoom is likely 5x or 10x and the low light fidelity will be crap. We'll assume Pensthorpe framed her shot tightly enough to not show the ALREADY SHOT koth in the situation "as [they] found it." What I'm saying here is a combination of crap footage and creative camera angles means no one will pick up on the lie. I hope I'm wrong and someone on the "hero side" finds the clues in the recording.
Ah, Clarke. You don't know Miller's got the drop on you.
JMS didn't invent the idiom "hell in a handbasket" (the origins are unclear, but my favorite theory is the French Revolution - a phrase used for victims of the guillotine), but it's a fun one.
Sigh. This arc is just gonna get grimmer, isn't it, Simon?
