The Interrogation Room

(image pulled from pinterest, do let me know if I have to give credit)

GENTLE-FRIENDS, @cygnusdoesthings @igotthisaccountunderduress. WE ARE GATHERED HERE TODAY IN THIS INTERROGATION ROOM AS WE HAVE RECEIVED A NEW LEAD FROM @brb-on-a-quest WHO IS SITTING ON THE INTERROGATING CHAIR (it's a cushion chair <3)

THERE ARE FOUR CUPS OF HOT CHOCOLATE FOR EVERYONE. NOW. CYGGIE, WILL YOU PLEASE OPEN THE INTERROGATION AS LEAD DETECTIVE?

The Confrontation

@igotthisaccountunderduress @quotidian-oblivion @gracefulchristiangirl @brb-on-a-quest @walkthruthewords @cygnusdoesthings @auroraofthesun1

It’s time.

So. I’ve gathered all of you here. Every single one of you- the ones we’ve had in this very room- have been integral. Have been… useful. Useful in one way or another.

I am a tired, old, worn-out detective. I have walked the worlds, walked the space in-between the lines. I have listened to gods themselves sing and scream. I am exhausted.

But I am determined.

Let’s go over who we have so far.

@gracefulchristiangirl . You are the original fishy anonymous, as seen by your post admitting it.

@brb-on-a-quest . You were the red herring, and your voice squawked it. For that, I thank you for your cooperation. You were the ‘passing information’ anonymous.

@mayamohini . You were the ‘advice’ anonymous. You were not at all secretive about that information. And for that, I thank you.

@foursixtwonineoh-pieces-of-lego . You were the binary anon. A late-comer, by all accounts, but still… stealthy in your own right. Your evidence has been documented by yourself.

@auroraofthesun1 . You were the Jury Anon, the one who sent an ask to ny friend, the IBSN number. The Serial Killer is Among the Jury. It was your friend, Evie, who outed you. Although we did have our suspicions.

The fishy anon #2, if such a thing exists, is still to be deduced, although we have our suspicions.

…

But only one of you, only one of you, is the original Aussie Anonymous.

And for that, I will admit.

Through blood and sweat. Tears and laughter. Astonished nights spent up, clenched fists in rage and headaches and typing and scrolling through endless upon endless pages..

My heart is broken. I am broken.

For it is @quotidian-oblivion who sent the ask.

[brb-on-a-quest]

Fishy Anon here to cause havoc 🐟

I may or may not tell the truth when I say anything…

but you should know….

@gracefulchristiangirl tagged those people for a reason 🧐

she might be innocent but I am not 👹

*frantically points running around and shouting*

Case File 081: The Unmasking of the Aussie Anon

(Catalogue by Det. C. DoesThings)

Case Description:

On July 12th, 2024, 0108 (AEST), CygnusDoesThings received a message from an anonymous asker, claiming that they were Australian. CygnusDoesThings then proceeded to try to figure out the identity of this Australian Anon- often shortened to Aussie Anon.

From there, multiple people have joined the case as we have investigated.

This is a long post. You have been warned. It may be a little overwhelming. I will reblog this post with status updates.

Investigators:

@cygnusdoesthings (Codename: Cyg or Cygnus) as Lead Detective

@igotthisaccountunderduress (Codename: Iggy or Rosie) as Assistant Detective

Anon Asks so Far

Original. The catalyst. If you want to see how this all happened, this is a good place to start.

Unrelated (Anon 2). Thank you for the well-wishes.

Mysterious Anon Maybe That I'm Just Realising Probably Was The Red Herring. Birb sent a reblog that outlined that we missed a red herring. My theory is that we missed this.

Anon Mentioning The Involvement of Gracie. This is... Incredibly suspicious. Gracie has inserted herself into this case (btw i totally do not mind, we have fun here), and has brought to our attention.. several other suspects.

Gracie In Disguise (Evidence: here)

Matching Fish Posting: Birb, Quo, Cyg, Walking. Fishy Anon is not innocent; but also not necessarily Aussie Anon. We need to find out who they are. (I'm pretty sure it's Gracie.)

Informant, possible code anon. Focusing on the capital letters. Code yet to be deciphered.

(right in front of you) (Binary Anon)

Series of asks, from an unknown (presumably) The Original Aussie.

Series of asks from the original Aussie Anon. Focusing on the capital letters. Code yet to be deciphered. Knows my status on discord. Possible leak.

1 (Do people lie on the internet?)

2 (A Fan of Fans)

3 (Well-Wishes from An Anon)

4 (Akabura Western Hats)

5 (Straight Shootin’)

6 (Are Hints the Norm?)

7 (a swing and a miss.)

15th July, 2024 asks:

1 (Along the Way)

2 (Still Figuring it Out?)

3 (Blind)

Binary Anon and Binary Anon Poem

Jury Anon

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Suspects:

Birb. Sent by someone to give us a red herring. Who sent (i dont know what your pronouns are) Birb? They at least have possibly connections to whoever sent the message, and we would love to know who did, under what circumstances, and, most of all, how to contact them.

Update: Birb is the Red Herring Anon, and the Sending Information anon, but not the Aussie Anon. Evidence.

walkthruthewords. A mootal lawyer. Is kept in the loop, but seems.. suspicious. Met with cooperation, but passed the blame to Gracie.

Update: Involvement as an mooterny only.

Gracie. Possible ally. Will need to interrogate further regarding fishy anon asks and the ask about who she tagged. But.. very suspicious. Multiple people involved with the Innocence Ask have pointed to her, as well as the Fish Ask itself.

@godsenther. Has not yet responded. Aussie. Recently made a personal Tumblr account. Is in the server I posted updates to. Knows me on Discord. Can be cryptic as hell.

And one other.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Current Process of Investigation (outlined by Quotidian):

interrogating birb about the details of the red herring

investigating the mutuals who are most likely to find cyg's post

Go through the notes of each of the unmasking posts and see who interacted and interrogate them

Try and lure kindly convince the anon to send another ask to one of us

Beg the Aussie anon to give us a hint

Drop to our knees and surrender ourselves to the nimbleness and cleverness of the Aussie anon

[cygnusdoesthings]

If the Aussie Anon is here, can they give us a sign that we’re not wasting our time with someone that will not cooperate?

Let’s try this. Just.. because… I can.

(Please reblog, for those who are involved, so the max audience can be seen!)

[quotidian-oblivion]

QUO QUO QUO

Cygnus and I are conducting an investigation and we have questions

Did you, or did you not, send cyg an anon this evening in Australian solidarity? You must answer truthfully or else…. uh…. I’ll send the emails after you. yeah.

ROSIE ROSIE ROSIE

Hiiiii

I sawwwwwwww

FUCK NOT THE FUCKING EMAILS AGAIN- (/lhj)

Uhhhh. I put a hand to my heart and say "I did not send that ask to @cygnusdoesthings, detective. I was on Pinterest procrastinating + cancelling an event I had today + laying on the floor miserable cuz I too am bleeding but because I got a bloody scratch, not periods + having my nightly existential crisis before bed"

Also, may I join this mystery of searching for the anon if you are indeed searching? I do love myself a good mystery. Plus, I made a resume:

I also have a tag name title for this: the unmasking of the aussie anon

^^

[quotidian-oblivion]

My fair ladies and Gentlefriends

(@igotthisaccountunderduress may be asleep at this time)

@cygnusdoesthings and I decided that we must adopt our ghostly mentor Sherlock Holmes' words and go through the process of elimination.

(Also talked about in my fic my school mafia boss 🤭)

Anyways. We have come to the conclusion that there is more than one anon.

My theory is this:

Aussie Anon

@gracefulchristiangirl was the Dr. Seuss book anon, the original fishy anon

@brb-on-a-quest was a red herring anon that made Iggy and Cyg accuse each other

@mayamohini was the Advice Anon

Fishy Anon #2 (also the Jury Anon)

Binary Anon

Fishy Anon #3 who is infiltrating to throw off other anons (who we believe is also birb)

Cygnus has also figured out who a couple of the anons are and we have a list of suspects as well.

[quotidian-oblivion]

Post end-credits

*takes deep breath* The false accusation will not be forgotten, @cygnusdoesthings. I thought I was safe. I thought we had trust.

You thought I was the culprit behind the mystery. Now you will find out just how cryptic and full of surprises I can be.

[cygnusdoesthings]

@igotthisaccountunderduress @quotidian-oblivion. Alright.

We are close. Hopefully.

Our next step is to find Aussie followers from our good frenemy, @brb-on-a-quest.

And find our red herring.

I need ideas to bounce off of. What do my faithful, valued companions think?

[cygnusdoesthings]

OG AA at your service

It seems my loving notes to your other detectives have gone missing in Tumblr's mailing system

AA

every day I wake up holy shit

@quotidian-oblivion @igotthisaccountunderduress

reaches my hands out towards you

help I’m tired and sinusitis is being not so much as a sharp pain but a very very painful annoyance.

[quotidian-oblivion]

Fishy Anon here to cause havoc e

I may or may not tell the truth when I say anything...

but you should know....

@gracefulchristiangirl tagged those people for a

reason

she might be innocent but I am not

The only thing is I still don't know who this is.

Aussie Anon and Fishy Anon are both cold cases.

[cygnusdoesthings]

PSA

there are so many people involved and I don’t have time to solve anyone else than who I’ve got so far, so will Only The OG Aussie Anon please ask me things? I’m almost there but I’m also so far away.
