Oh... there's really going to be a Watch?

[slightly_knurd]

That's right: there really is.

[lyra_of_dust]

Huh... but some of the really mean people here are awfully strong.

[slightly_knurd]

I don't care if they're strong or mean. I care whether they're breaking the law. Despite there being none here..

Besides. There's a good load of strong people who could potentially join up as well. One never knows.

[dubia_lux]

...Recruits....

[slightly_knurd]

Volunteering, Ryuzaki? Didn't think this sort of messy business suited you. My guess is you're more forensics than street.

[Locked to Vimes]

I am an interpreter, Commander Vimes. That is what I do. However, to do my work I do require a Watch.

I am talented, it is true, but only one man. I cannot be everywhere.

[slightly_knurd]

Then let me try to make your job a little easier, and you do the same when there comes an opportunity. You're a good man to know.

Neither can I. Neither can anyone. But we'll get there, in time.

[bluebomberx]

I'm glad this is finally getting somewhere.

[slightly_knurd]

All it takes is a few small steps to get started. Can I count on you to volunteer, Commander X?

[bluebomberx]

Of course, Commander Vimes. In another world or not, it's my duty to protect people.

[slightly_knurd]

Good man.

Handy thing, all these worlds. Gives you a chance to learn from each other.

[steeldame]

A "Watch"?

[slightly_knurd]

City Watch. As in "You watch my back, I'll watch yours, and then no one'll come around to put a knife in it."

[steeldame]

If you need specialised branches, my family has dedicated their lives to protect people from our country of supernatural threats, particularly vampires.

[slightly_knurd]

Your name isn't Hellsing, by any chance of the imagination?

[darkest0knight]

Watch? Like...the police?

[slightly_knurd]

Exactly like that.

[darkest0knight]

Are you a cop, then?

[slightly_knurd]

For thirty-five years, officially.

Thoughts about joining, or just general curiosity?
