Roll Call

[sentryslinger]

Alright now, Miss Mundane. I know you're wantin' to know how many of us BLUs and REDs there are around these parts, but even if I ask, I can't guarantee everyone will answer. Some folks ain't much for talkin'.

But you're right. It don't hurt much to just ask around, 'less someone comes after me for my occupational affiliation. And I know how to take care of myself if that happens. Now that I can guarantee.

[Sitting on your sentry as it slowly spins back and forth. Don't even ask how he got there.]

You are preforming a roll call? How quaint.

[sentryslinger]

[Color him spooked, his hand going for his Wrangler in a heartbeat. And he's not going to ask how you got there. You're a Spy. That's reason enough.]

Yeah, something like that.

[quickly]

You can tell yer mun a roll call ain't necessary.

'Cause da only one dat matters is me!

[sentryslinger]

You might have to ask the Scout on our side for his opinion on that one, fella.

[prpl_assistant]

I believe both sides are quite even as of the moment, Mr Engineer.

[sentryslinger]

I'm glad to hear that, ma'am. I expect you'd know better than any of us.

[hardhat_truckie]

Howdy stranger, you wouldn't be the BLU askin' fer the RED and BLU fellas 'round these parts are ya? Not that I'm complainin' or anythin', but my mundane mentioned you an' I gotta admit that it's been awhile since I've seen another Engineer.

[sentryslinger]

Well hey there, stranger. You're the first one of us Engineers aside from myself I've come across. You'd think there'd be more of us around, but I guess given the very specialized nature of our profession, that might be askin' a bit much.

[rogueries]

Sometimes, people regret what they wish for.

[ c a s u a l l y smokes. ]

[sentryslinger]

As this roll call has brought out two of you Spies, I'm startin' to think I might regret this in the end.

[notintehkitchen]

[It's weird talking to someone who reminds her of John Wayne without her mask on.]

...

A rollcall?

[sentryslinger]

That's right. Just tryin' to get a count of the mercenaries we've got runnin' around here.

Judgin' by the suit, you're a Pyro for RED, ain't ya?

[pocketsurgeon]

Guten morgen, Herr Engineer. Meine mundane vants to tell you she ist glad somevon ist taking a headcount. It's hard to keep track viz all ze new players coming und going.

[sentryslinger]

And a good mornin' to you, Doc! I figured if there's someone who's gonna be takin' a headcount, it might as well be one of us who can actually keep track of the numbers.

[ribs_grow_back]

A roll call?

[Pause.]

Ack, fine. I'm sure I can put mein research on hold long enouff to play along.

[sentryslinger]

Don't gotta play much, doctor. Just show up and let me know you're here, which you've done already.

[boston_slammer]

Roll call, huh? Sounds like a plan, Engie.

Would love to see how many BLUs we got here.

[sentryslinger]

Same here, Scout. Guess I'll be puttin' down a mark for you on the BLU list.

[hates_hippies]

A roll call, Toy Maker?

[He raises an eyebrow (not that you can see it) before bursting out into a fit of laughter.]

Not a bad idea! Surprising, considering a BLU came up with it.

[sentryslinger]

If we're gonna be fair about this, it's more my mundane's idea than mine. I've gotta give credit where credit is due.

[bye_to_yer_head]

Yer gonna be drownin' in mercenaries pretty soon here. Maybe this wasn't such a good idea.

[sentryslinger]

I can see that, but that's what the mundane wanted, so that's what she got. I'll call that mission accomplished.

[cauliflower]

I'll be rootin' for you, Engineer!

[sentryslinger]

I thank ya kindly for that, ma'am.

I'm a little late, but I can't just ignore a Rolecall.

[yesadministrator]

I should hope you don't need to 'take care of yourself' if I came around, Mr. Conagher.

Never too late for me!

[sentryslinger]

I should hope so too, Miss Pauling. Can't be too careful 'round these parts, though.

[Especially since there seem to be two of you. Better not question it, he decides. This 'Dear Mun' place is unusual like that, sometimes.]

one day i'll stop spamming your inbox

[crediting]

Engineer is credit to team again!

Neverrrrrrrrrr

[sentryslinger]

I do try to be, ma'am. Though I'll admit you're the first Heavy Weapons Lady I've seen around these parts.
