They circle the planet and look at the architecture. They are somewhat disappointed.
"Maybe the aliens think they're pretty," someone says dubiously.
"No," someone else says. "Some things are universal."
"Maybe the aliens are all blind."
"That makes more sense."
"Well we have to pick somewhere."
This place has a lovely large statue-garden-monument thing that Elves would not go out of their way to avoid if it were in Tirion, though they'd probably walk through it quickly. They go for that one.
One guy says Anado has a grudge against him and named him falsely!
He doesn't work in criminal, he should not need to be personally poking this to make it go anywhere. Does he have an alibi, does Peka recognize him, does he post under one of those screennames, did he have that afternoon and evening off.
He does not consent to search of his electronics and says he was home alone watching his grandson and Peka's not totally sure and he's unemployed after finishing out a temporary contract.
The fuck he doesn't consent to search of his electronics. He asks Maitimo angrily if that's really the law. It's really the law.
Would Peka be more sure off an audio recording?
"I don't want an apology I want you to fix it this country's criminal justice system does not work if - they're not even trying -"
"Everything is impossible to fix to the degree it touches on reds. Which is why we are sending the reds somewhere nicer and then I think the police will be better about trying."
"Maitimo, so help me, when Anado gets out of prison after his three-week sentence in exchange for information the police aren't even acting on I cannot guarantee his safety."
He sighs. "Why don't you go help Peka resettle in Endorë or something. Get some distance from it."
"Not especially. I got in an argument with Maitimo and he said maybe I should take some time off and take you there and resettle you."
"I guess it's probably a good idea, I can't just - stay out of sight of the fence all the time -"
"Everybody says it's nice there. I guess Katin'll pick up the language better now than later."
Sigh. "If - I'll go talk with them again, try to get them to prosecute the fucking case -"
