         Rose's request to accompany Cain on his excursions didn't apply to tonight of course. Even if it had, he had just gotten back and didn't seem to be planning on going anywhere else.

"Young master and mistress is there anything I can assist you with? Perhaps putting Miss Rose in bed?"

Rose turned to see the source of the voice, which was apparently Evangelina. She had done so just in time to catch the wink. As a reaction to both this and the question, Rose blushed and adopted a sour expression. "I am not a child." she stated. "I am thus perfectly capable of putting myself to bed." As if in response to this, another yawn managed to escape her. Though she tried to hide it behind her hand, it was still fairly obvious. "That proves nothing."

She nodded at Evangelina's suggestion that the Ripper might be human. "I've actually considered that as a possibility as well. Even the little moths are prone to bloodlust, though usually of a different kind. The main flaw with that theory is that most of them simply lack the raw physical strength demonstrated in these cases. We also shouldn't discount the possibility of a Lycan, as this level of brutality is something they're already known for. In addition, they make up the majority of the police force, so it would be no wonder that they haven't already been caught. That said, I have never actually been to one of the crime scenes, so this is based solely upon case notes and simple deduction. I would be able to help far more if I were allowed to do something other than tell the courts that we are on the case." This last statement was directed mostly at Cain.
