We'll wait about an hour to see if we get confirmation that it's his turn.   If it is or if an hour expires and no answer then we'll have to assume it is and Zanej is up.

I guess it's been an hour. Zanej is up.  I'll update things soon.  The main difference is "A" has taken a turn.

There's a lot to be said about short and sweet; however, I think with your ability, Jeff, you could have supplied more-- thus, it kind of felt like the finger. Or fast food.

We needed U and we also need B. Where is B? And why wasn't the question of who I really is addressed? Q too.  

If you were short on words, I could have loaned you some. Hey, I even had a costume ball goin' on so that U could keep everyone happy while the train was stalled. X was done up as a Zombie Cowboy and you were saving P from being tied up in cold storage. So much fun, so little time.

Sorry if my entry was ambiguous, I was leaving it to the writers after me to decide where 'I' went (the river or somewhere else) forgetting the rule about it having to be my kill! oopsie, hope it wasnt too confusing.
If anyone was capable of throwing "I" out the window, it would make a bit of a noise I thought lol.

I deliberately wrote in the phone thing because as the bodies pile up, i felt uncomfortable without a maguffin in place to explain why people don't just call the police or whatever.
I think U would have covered a lot of bases for his little trip and the killer (if it isnt U...) would also make certain provisions.

I read "warm fuzzies" & "the gun dropping to the floor" as a little oolala for the three in sleeper 6 (hence P hearing... stuff)

Jeff, I know a girl called Peter but not Mike so elected to keep Peter but one vowel different from mike - its not up to me to name other people's characters but I don't mind doing that for you as the entries come in if you like? PM me and i'll do a "find and replace" for everyone lol. (same goes for anyone else).

Much better than that first segment you posted.  Pretty good actually, adds lots to the story.  Hopefully, Zanej didn't get too far.  

Will update info soon.  Had a very involved day at work.

EDIT: Everything should be updated.

Again, my apologies for yesterday's mistake.  I've been racking my brain, trying to figure out how that got posted and can't for the life of me, figure it out.  Very strange...

Should we delete a bunch of these posts to clean up the thread?

Lotsa thinly veiled innuendo here.
Of the plot related and *ahem* entertainment kind.
Looks like some situations are coming to a head.

Good call setting up a sitdown with U.
Of course, that could be a set up for you/U to ferret out the phantom killer.
And, poor little me all alone in the sleeper, oh dear.

E.D.

That's much better, Jeff. And to follow up on:

One little phone call... It can make all the difference in the world, like not checking your blind spot, walking on the wrong side of the road, leaving for work too late, posting too soon.  

The fact that C is targeted as wanting to take out P is interesting. M sure doesn't want her gone. If she is gone, then her daughter is without a mom and M's business is quite finished on this train, since any chance at reconciliation for P and her husband would need to be settled in the afterlife.

M without P alive will also be as good as dead.

It's good that we see U calling this festive gathering together at this point. I'd like to know how each one betrayed him.

Poor X, he seems to have turned bad all of a sudden. Maybe this crazy alphabet train is possessing them, all of them taking turns on the dark side. It would seem that way, right back to I pulling that knife in the beginning. I'm still wondering who I really was because he wasn't I. I thought, (me, no not Pia  ) that he was in cahoots with P's Ex's partner, I wrote it in as a reason for him being on the train.

I'm out working in the field today, but I will check back later.  

Sandra

Maybe the "unintelligible voice" that called U is the actual "I".  maybe he somehow got aboard and used the counterfeit I to make sure the coast was clear...which it obviously wasn't.

Hmmm, so many possibilities...
