Interweb news searches
(Solaire turns up older articles. Oddly enough, none of the stories predating the first symbol sighting seem to have the symbol in them. They're pretty boring, in fact.)
(Karkat manages to find a bit about it on cityofhawthornemaine.us. It seems as though the article borrowed heavily from it, as it's mostly just stuff it already mentioned.)
School website
(The school website's design is evocative of the early oughts in a way. Less eloquently put, it's pretty stupid-looking stuff. Bad font, scrolling banners, grainy pictures that are supposedly students being happy and having fun but are probably stock images. The sitemaster does, however, seem to have the presence of mind to announce the upcoming talent show on the 20th. Ugh, they used quotation marks for emphasis...)
Mmm Whatcha Sayyyyyy
(Peacock eventually comes across Travis Touchdown's limp corpse, jaw blown off by the powerful shotgun and brains everywhere.)

(raises an eyebrow, then takes a closer look)
Shit...didn't take you for the suicidal type Touchdown...

You think so Avery?
Well...he was talking about weird goings on in this town so...
(raises an eyebrow and holds Avery to her ear again)
Demonic possession? Nah...I call bull. Aaanyway...
(resumes her closer investigation of Travis' body)

(Beside him lies the weapon he used to do the deed. On his person are his cell phone and his other effects. <Duff knows what his other effects are :P>)
Because I did not stop for Death, he kindly stopped for me
(Nope, still nothin'... Preeeetty dark...)
(Wait... Wait, there's something. It's blurry at first, but it slowly becomes clearer. It appears to be the shape of a person's head from behind, a light source in front of it. Still blurry, though...)

-Runs beside Travis-
You stupid bastard!
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?-Stares at Peacock, bewildered and a little creeped out by her nonchalance-

Am I really doing anything for these guys?
