[ Well, this is certainly a surprise. Miranda has done every thing in her power to avoid using her real name - including picking a spectacularly idiotic alias off-the-cuff - but it seems that she has not been careful enough. There, at the end of a thankfully short list, is the name MIRANDA LAWSON for all the network to see. It would seem this administrator has more reach than Miranda had assumed, and wouldn't hesitate to spill her secrets. What to do?
Inspiration comes from the other half of the problem: Miranda isn't dead. She retrieves her datapad and clears her throat carefully before sending a message out in response to the obituary:]
I admit I'm skeptical of these lists. Has anyone confirmed that all these people are dying, or are we simply assuming that because some are, they're all dead? I've never even seen some of these names on the network.
[ A lie: she'd seen all of them except her own. ]
Are we even sure that these are real people?

Action Prompt 3: Kyrie eleison
The chapel is the first beautiful thing Miranda has witnessed in Norfinbury. The windows bring her up short for a moment and she pauses to admire the way the harsh light from outside filters through them to create beautiful patterns. The saints mean nothing; her father had worshipped no one but himself, and she had never bothered to find a replacement. No one up above was looking out for them here.
Miranda is looking out for herself.
She searches the pews methodically, and then the alter. When they turn up not so much as a candle stick for bludgeoning, she ventures further from the sanctuary and finds herself wandering down the stairs. Her footsteps echo loudly in the silence no matter how softly she walks. She hopes no one is close enough to come investigating.
The collection of corpses at the bottom of the stairs are a surprise, but not a startling one. Miranda had spent every day for two years with a corpse and she isn't about to start fearing ghosts now.

Except... had that one just moved?
