SciOly Assassination 113: Friday the 13th

[Froggie]

quercks is spelled weirdly...idk, does it seem intentional?

Apperantly lots of people misspell quirks as quercks, but I don't know if it's intentional or not.

[whythelongface]

It appears that Sassy 106 was quite the Hamilton fan. There was at least one reference to the number "Aaron Burr, sir" from what I can find. Panda Weasley was Sassy for that one (which should've been obvious, in retrospect).

Also, to quote gneissisnice:

Cool. I knew spending a month practicing Carmina Burana for our concert would pay off somehow.

Ok, this one's kinda easy, but it's been stuck in my head for a while.

So if you care to find me,
Look to the western sky.
As someone told me lately,
Everyone deserves a chance to fly.

- Defying Gravity, Wicked

So, as I've always said, this Sassy loves the theatrical arts! Or the victim...

Unfortunately, gneissisnice's last activity was a month ago. Still, s/he might be active enough to warrant a protect. Or an accusation. Furthermore, we know Panda Weasley's not Sassy, but we could protect him/her. After all, that's two obvious musical references in one clue.

After all:

#vivalagif

What's your favorite musical?

And

I don't think I've ever watched a musical,

WHAT?!?!?!





#vivalagif

I have to go make some tea.

Maybe protect Panda Weasley and gneissisnice?
And maybe accuse gneissisnice
Oh that's where I heard western skies

[whythelongface]

I protect Panda Weasley based on the theatrical references, and also because I have no clue who else to protect.

[Alex-RCHS]

The clue references Alexander Hamilton and my first name is Alex, so I protect myself.

also I have no idea

My dearest officers,

You weren't that close this time. I managed to get away with syo_astro this Friday the 13th. I guess I almost felt just a tad bit bad about it, but oh well, what's done has been done. On how I did it, I'll leave to your imagination.

--

It's a fact of life for 8 babies with rhyming names to follow their parents around on the streets named for two-lantern signals and near historical hills within the radius. But I guess my target will be somewhat sarcastically advocative of which service to call to be driven around those streets. It's not a taxi - those can be sketch.

48 hours.

The Kill Clue #13(!) Special:

ID hints? pfft. You’ve actually already gotten several hints. Instead of seeing what they want you to see, you've got to open your brain to the possibilities. Look back, and look closely.

[whythelongface]

The eight kids in this case are the ducklings featured in Make Way for Ducklings, a picture book. The ducklings are in Boston, which makes sense about the two-lantern signal (Paul Revere) and historical hill (Bunker/Breed's Hill?) Anyway this is definitely a reference to Boston.

Boston is famous for its duck rides. Therefore, I think birdylayaduck08 would be a candidate here.

[Uber]

I protect Uber based on the reasoning that Ubers are taxis but also not taxis.

I know that was a bit early but I can always retract it.

I'm already dead.

whoops

I retract that protect. Instead, I protect birdylayaduck08 based on the reasoning above.

I agree with that protect. Also, the "8 babies" may be a double reference to the "8" at the end of birdlayaduck08's username.
