dusting off an old muse. apologies for the rusty voice!

Hang on.

You want me to send me... to live on a giant turtle. In a world between life and death. And you think this is an improvement over 1973? Like I wasn't already convinced about the coma.

A giant turtle. This is gonna do my head in.

Tell me they've at least got a police force there.

Don't know if - the kedan would let you join.

But you could...still do it. Um, unofficially.

[whatfriendsdo]

Working on the last part.

if only my icon of him dressed as Robin were active

You mean become a vigilante. [Sam doesn't quite approve of such shenanigans.]

oh gosh

[wholenewstory]

[Cass can see that, and she frowns defensively.] If it helps people - why not?

[bythe_books]

I take it the existing police force isn't exactly... inclusive. [Judging by the other response he got, anyway.]

[bythe_books]

It's not exactly doing things by the books.

[Her look, very clearly, says "And?"]

Hey, at least you got a coma to fall back on. If she does end up sending me there, I'm probably just going to be convinced I've totally lost it.

[IT'S UNNECESSARY IF YOU HAVE GOOD COPPERS.] What about the existing police force? Are they bent?

yessssss

[bythe_books]

Trust me: the coma is a small comfort.

[wholenewstory]

Not - all. [There's definitely a few.] But they can only do - so much.

Especially since...we got there.

/no self control

[fatninja]

So what's the deal with the coma anyhow?

just as rusty, sob ;;

[Gene is unimpressed. Of course, this is pretty much Gene's default state.]

Sounds t' me like you'd be better off in some sort o' nuthouse, even without the giant turtle.

[aloadeddie]

Don't think the local police are hiring outsiders right now. [Because you can bet he's checked into law enforcement.]

But you're not the only one who'd be getting your head messed with just by showing up there. [He pauses.] Death doesn't work, either.
