005 .ЯR. December 10 -- History is Written By the Victors

Dec 10, 2011 16:46

[There's a blip on the feed, the only sign that there's an incoming transmission, but it doesn't last long, as if someone started broadcasting but thought better of it before it had a chance to turn on fully.  A few minutes later there's another, only this time it stays on, although there's no video.

The VOICE that comes on is recognizably Rorschach ( Read more... )

pass the brain bleach, my warden is not an owl substitute, [verse]: last voyages, irrational overreactions are how i roll, rorschach will not tolerate bullshit, normal human urges are for other people

[Carla had given herself a patrol. As many of the habitable decks as possible trying to get the lay of the land, hiding places, that sort of thing.

It's hard not to be on the ball about this. It's hard not to think about it in terms of a job. So she's got her uniform on. No gun, just a bat, a big ugly silver bat that's got what looks like dried blood and is carried in a special harness on her back.

Beyond that however, she's just a regular cop-keeping an eye on everything.]

[She falls to the side and rolls, coming up and reaching for her bat.]

Buddy, you're making this difficult on yourself. I'm putting your name in a report.

[Then her face goes cold and her hand closes on the bat]

Fair fucking warning.

If you know it.

[Mocking, scornful, but as he rolls to his feet his expression is blank and empty. Determined. His fist comes up as he steps in to coldcock her, counting on her preoccupation with unholstering her weapon to give him the advantage, an attempt to solve the problem quickly and without further difficulties.]

[Somewhere, Carl Renaldi is kicking himself and shaking his head. You never take your eyes off the enemy.

Which was what she did. A fraction of a second. His fist connects-hard-and the lights go out.]

[He checks for a pulse just to make sure there won't be lasting damage; it's steady, strong, her breathing even. She'll be fine. With a satisfied grunt, he continues on his way. He'll let his warden know there's an unconscious cop in the hallway when he gets around to it, but right now? He's making his exit.]

[Simone had actually chosen to wander the halls in search of all the different public facilities. She found the dining hall on her own floor, the library on another -- so she was curious. And also cold, so better to get her cardio in while still indoors. What she hadn't expected to find, in her explorations, was someone unconscious in the hallway. Immediately she crouched beside the woman and checked for a pulse.]

Hey... Hey, you're all right.

[Part of her is thinking "What, already?" but the other is at least encouraged to feel a heartbeat]

Can you hear me?

[The body groans. She put a hand out, grabbing for something-reaching for something on her back.]

E-Easy, girl -- don't try to move. I'm gonna call for help. You're safe.

[She pulled out her journal to call for help.]

[she raises a hand to grab the bat on her shoulder] ...he didn't take my weapon?

[She's going to have a black eye] Who are you?

My name's Simone. I'm new here. Help is coming. [She hesitates] Try not to move too much; I dunno how bad he hurt you.

[Dick had rushed over immediately after he'd seen Simone's post, responding on the way, and once the two were in sight, jogged over and crouched next to them.]

Hey. What happened? Are you okay?

[Carla lets out a groan] Fucker got the drop on me. [she rubs at her eye] I was paranoid he'd grab my weapon but like...

[she checks again to make sure it's still there, looking visibly relieved.]

Male, Caucasian. [Insert a pretty accurate police style description of Dick's inmate right there.]

[she offers them both a smile] Is my eye purple?

[Stildyne comes jogging up, holstering his side-arm as he sees that it's under control. He falls back, taking up guard to keep the area clear and calm. Doing what's been called his impression of an immovable object.]

[Simone smiles a little humorlessly]

Probably will be.

[Another man comes along, and she oddly feels a lot better. Part of her worried whoever had done this would come back.]

Before anyone asks, I didn't see him. I just found her.

[Dick just heaves a sigh because fuck damn it Rorschach. :|]

I'll go find him. Stildyne, can you help her to the infirmary?

Naturally. ...good luck. [If that's the phrase.]
