[Video, un: howl in one, before the Colosseum attack]
[ It's early in the morning, probably too early for some people. Ratonhnhaké:ton has not yet slept, having recently returned to his lodgings after infiltrating the barracks of the Hand. Not that he looks any different. Late nights or no sleep is far from an unusual experience for him.
Though his expression is fairly blank, there's definite anger in his eyes. ]
I have just returned from the barracks. A troupe of mimes were held captive there. They were the ones who trained the assassins that attacked at Maximus Faustus's feast.
The leader was insistent the people they trained were not human. In a way, the mimes were also teaching them how to act human. They are capable of doing so, but it is not natural to them. I believe one of our own has shared a similar sentiment.
[ His jaws flex, his gaze flicking to the side as he considers his own words. ]
It seems the Hand is willing to use any methods at their disposal to accomplish their goals, whatever they are. Perhaps they should be dealt with, before something worse happens.

Mimes were teaching people to act human?

Were the mimes caught by the Hand or hired by them originally? Because if we have proof of that, to take to the senate...

[ Finding that troupe and getting them to safety had been far more important. ]

[ Hopefully the Hand hasn't gotten rid of any of that proof, although that's definitely a risk. They might have done it as soon as they captured the troupe. Or perhaps keeping any contract was important to make sure it didn't look more suspicious.
Could be either. ]

[ Sure, that sounds reasonable enough. ]
And you can sense this energy?
no subject
There are others around who can, to a lesser extent. Because they trained for it. I'm just a little better at it.

Then it is something that can be learned?

It would not hurt. Do you know who I might ask?

Maybe Master Lan Xichen? I thin he's a sect leader so he has a lot of knowledge. I think Wei Wuxian also would know, although I don't know if he can still do it.
