[The Captain handled his depression like he always did

[After beating crap up all up and down their street - hope you don't miss those mailboxes and car windows, Mitchell Road - and had retreated to his porch, feeling drained.

He'd have watched the Captain's less-than-graceful landing, and his subsequent mauling by a bear trap.

Holy shit! Even Captain Rummy didn't deserve that. Scout got up and ran over.]

Jesus Christ! What the hell-?!

[heartstar_blues]

[He just laid there.]

... ☠☠☠☠...

[freakinblur]

Christ, pally, how do ya get yerself inta these messes? [Scout leaned in to get a good look at the trap, and how to safely remove it.] Damn. Good thing yer as tough as ya are, 'r this thing woulda torn ya in two.

[heartstar_blues]

[He shook his head.]

I did it on purpose...

[lotuslife]

[She's just there, staring at this pathetic sight.]

...

[heartstar_blues]

[Just lays there. Every now and then he yells.]

☠☠☠☠!

[lotuslife]

Have you no dignity?

[heartstar_blues]

☠☠☠☠ you...

☠☠☠☠ no.

[poking the Captain]

[heartstar_blues]

[Grunts. Blinking up at her... He was not letting that beer go. The bear trap was still locked firmly over his arm.]

[lasersallover]

You're gonna die out here.

[heartstar_blues]

So... who ☠☠☠☠ cares?...

[sanctusdei]

[Theo watches this whole spectacle with wide eyes - holy shit, that jackass can FLY too?!

Then he wondered what wonderful person set out a damn bear trap for him. He laughed at the Captain, mocking and harsh.]

Well well. Looks like I'm not the only one in town who wants to see you taken down a few pegs. Bravo to them!

[heartstar_blues]

[On the ground, groaning.]

Go the ☠☠☠☠ away....

[sanctusdei]

[Approaches slowly, but confidently and looking smug as hell.]

I wish I had thought of that first. Such an obvious trap! I'll have to congratulate whomever's behind it. And here all this time I thought you were made of steel. I guess not.

[heartstar_blues]

[He'd roll onto his back... eyes closed. Yeah he had been crying.]

Yeah... ☠☠☠☠ you... it can't hurt me. You can't hurt me...

Nothing can hurt me...

[passes_out]

[Ichabod was out walking around since his waking of being droned for three weeks has him slightly off center. He sees the Captain and blinks]

Are you...is that a bear trap?

[heartstar_blues]

... [Hearing that voice, The Captain was not as hostile.]

... Glad to hear you're back...

[He was still laying face first in the ground.]

[passes_out]

[He does his best not to burst out laughing upon seeing Captain in such a state. One thing that he could count on The Captain for was getting him to see that everything's not so bad when The Captain has gone through worse yet he still remains positive.

He smiles and sighs.]

Whatever in the world made you stick your hand in a bear trap? Would it not be easier to go to the bar? It would have proven much less hazardous.

[He attempts to pry the trap off.]

It seems stuck tight.

[heartstar_blues]

[He nodds watching his friend try to pry it off.]

Margot's gone... her sister too... I went to drink and came back to see this. So I grabbed it...

☠☠☠☠ trap can't beat me...
