[action/text/video] you know what they say about ignorance
Up-and-coming field correspondent and reporter Evie O'Connell has a question for you. More than one, actually. Probably two, or three. No, actually, the narration lied, she's got several pages' worth of inquiries to make and no, she won't stop knocking on your door or pestering your neighbours for information until she's got her answers.
...which is probably why she often finds herself tied to chairs on the edges of moats filled with piranhas, making dangerous enemies with the local mob, or having amusingly terse lunches with public officials (the last one, comparatively, isn't so bad). With this sort of nosy reputation, you might not be surprised to hear the following on the air:
"The situation is, as of yet, developing, but the self-professed 'Don' of the family is being brought up on
serious charges of money laundering and fraud after we located their central production storage facility-"
"Mr. Peters insists the cause of local bovine mutilation is aliens-"
"We're on the scene at the Wonderland City Bank where an armed robbery appears to be taking place at the
hands of famed criminal, Apogee, who has kept police out of what has turned into a hostage situation-"
"-the real question we should be asking, citizens, is this: are superheroes worth the risk? Can singular individuals handle that
responsibility, and are we relying too much on the goodwill and charity of benevolent figures that could just as easily turn
and use their powers for personal gain? Whatever the case may be, we owe a great deal to these men and women for tirelessly keeping
crime in check and these streets safe. This is Evie O'Connell for Channel 5 News, live from City Hall, pleasantly persistent
and doggedly determined to give you the best."
What we can take away from this is that, like any good reporter, she is a dreadful busybody and always trying to worm her way past the yellow tape, even if it means sidestepping the authorities to get choice, firsthand material from the criminals that wreak havoc in this godforsaken place.
It's a dangerous business, wanting to know everything.
[OOC NOTE: As the woman looking for 'the next big scoop,' Evie is likely to get in all sorts of trouble simply because she wants to know everything you've got to say. Especially the things you don't want to say.
A few scenarios I can suggest: leaving her messages or anonymous tips via voicemail/phone calls/email, dropping by her dreadfully cluttered and paper-strewn apartment for some tea and a chat about current events, a casual, totally off-the-record (but not really because hidden microphone DUH) interview about your totally legitimate business, a derring-do rescue because she's likely gotten kidnapped again. The list goes on!
Prose or brackets are totally fine, let's play! If you want to chat/have any questions first, you can prod me on AIM at uncalendula and on Plurk as the same. :) ]
