Making his way down the stairs Danny could practically see the lightning coming off the two as Jackson questioned Kanoa. While he didn't think that he would actually try anything, the boy strided brusquely out the door (in part to clear a path for August) and placing himself between the two, his back to Jackson. Holding up his hands in a placating manner Danny said hurriedly, "Look maybe he didn't phrase it the best way, but Jackson has got a point." Jackson has a point? Since when did Danny agree with knife wielding maniacs? Since they voice what we've all been thinking this entire time a voice told Danny. Oh right. that. Coming to terms with the side he was taking Daniel tried to take the most diplomatic approach as possible, treating the tiny woman as if she were a Kodiak bear. "Look, what you know about this...secret world doesn't matter when you don't tell us. Not only do we not know what we're doing, but information that we may have is not only false, but misleading since it's come from a century's long game of telephone. Police procedure comes from that knowledge being drilled into people's heads at academies that make officers qualified. It's what separates detectives from an angry mob. I understand that we're on the clock with our John Doe, but if we head into this in the dark, we're going to just end up with a whole bunch of more hurt people. Not everyone knows who Eugene Francois Vidocq is, but everyone knows that tracking footprints is important." Looking away Danny said more quietly, "Look Boss, I'm on board no matter what. But half these people only met you yesterday. Heck, I'm pretty sure I saw two people run off on the way over here to go make out or something. You don't need to give the principles of thaumaturgy or how the position of the stars affect transmutating metals for now. Just enough so that where ever we head next, we won't end up just like the boy. I'm sure there's stuff that you can go over while we walk back, right?"
Now sure that no one would immediately be strangled, Daniel walked over to August and pulled out his thermos and poured a cup of cocoa. "Thanks to this little lady we now know that this was a full blown kidnapping." Putting the cup into her hands (much as an EMT would) Danny then nodded his head towards Orion saying, "And Orion over here figured out that this kitsune has been preparing for this for a while, as well as places they might frequent. However at best it would require a stake-out and canvasing the area which would take too much time. What about you guys? Did you find anything interesting?"
