I'm running out of ways to tell you how good you are at this. Because you're, like, really good at this. This was the perfect opportunity to capture everyone's characters and you freaking nailed it. Everyone's reactions were so perfect and exactly what it wouldn't have been like in the show. As far as I'm concerned this is just a deleted scene. Amazing.

Author's Response: Stop. You are far too kind and are going to make me verklempt. I'm really glad you enjoyed this little bit of actors-in-other-shows inspired frippery.

Wow, Toby's doing a really good job of covering his tracks. Got everyone all convinced, planted evidence, everything.

That all being said, great voice for everyone through all of this. Creepy Gabe, self important Dwight, Pam and Angela sniping at each other, Kelly ready to rock her interview, Kevin not picking up on what Oscar is saying, Jim feeling out of place that there was a threat so close to his family, Michael being distraught. Really good work with this one.

Author's Response: Toby's Netflix show is going to be *epic.* (I *think* what's going on here is there have been *two* serial killers stalking Scranton at this time, like LA in the 70s and 80s, and Toby is hoping to palm off/seeing some of his murders being attributed to Luke.)

Thank you so much! And thanks for taking the time to review!

I'm going to take credit for inspiring this chapter even if it wasn't me. So, you're welcome :) This was my fave:

*OSCAR (with KEVIN initially nodding along like he has the slightest clue what OSCAR is talking about):
Luke claimed to be this big film lover, but he once told me he fell asleep halfway through Rashomon. *Rashomon.* He should’ve been locked up for that alone.

KEVIN (surprised confusion):
And… the murders.

OSCAR (a little embarrassed):
Yes, and of course also the murders, Kevin.*

Thank you for blessing us with these gems, Joe. You are a true hero around these parts.

Author's Response: I mean... I believe you were in fact the person who insisted this should be posted, so, thank you.

I don't know why, I just really like the Oscar-Kevin duo. I think more should be done with them.

*Kevin voice* I... am a hero.

This was so incredibly good, totally played out like a real episode in my head. I love Mom Detectives too, I hope they do something with it once they finish the rewatches towards the end of next year.

Author's Response: Thank you! And they absolutely should. Get Hollywood on the phone, dammit.

Oh this was just so great! I started copying the talking heads I liked the most, but then I just had the whole fic copied into this box. Top shout outs to Pam & Angela and Dwight. So good!!!!

Author's Response: Thank you so much!!!!

It's always fun to see you expand one of the Discord quickies into a real live fic. The meta connection of this one while trouble for your timeline, also makes it so. I don't know why, as I sip my much needed AM coffee, but the Darryl one really landed for me.

Kelly's seems very Kelly. I'm totally seeing Gabe fanboy over having a serial killer's signature and getting banned for his SK glorification.

But I totally see and hear Toby in this one. 

Fun stuff!

 

Happy Early Halloween!!! 



Author's Response: Purposeful denial of caffeine is definitely an indication of deep-seated cruelty, and I enjoy getting into how fundamentally weird and off-putting Gabe is... especially when I don't have to torture Erin to do it.

Oh, Toby's starring in his own episode of How To Get Away With Murder here, for sure.

Thanks! Happy early Halloween to you!
