{01} you let me in your house with a hammer

Vhell. Vhat is zhis?

[A rather calm call from someone who just spent a good hour or so tearing apart most of the interior of 504 Ricardo St. looking for any hint of his things but especially his Medigun. That is prized technology dammit and losing it(or worse, having it stolen) is unforgivable.

His call, though, doesn't really communicate that.]

I just have a few simple qvestions for anyvhone hospitable enough to provide. I can be qvite civil myself, you know.

[Wait, that has to be clarified from the start? And why does his tone indicate that he'd much rather be eviscerating someone?]

[action]

[a. Closed except for housemates. Medic is either tearing all of your shit up or not giving any fucks about the mess and digging through the pantry, depending on when you show up.]

[b. Around town! Screwing around with the drones(they don't fight back when cut! Also he got a knife somewhere), checking out what kinds of birds they have at the pet store, inspecting the park, getting thrown out of the hospital for trying to steal medical supplies... usual first day in town stuff. There is a curious lack of color-coordinated destruction, so for the moment he's more concerned with where he is than anything else.]

[c. If anyone has any reason to be at the school during the summer, Medic seems to have figured out what his job is supposed to be and is familiarizing himself with the school labs and classrooms. He is clearly disappointed with what's being provided, because he's trashed about half of it. There will probably be another trip to the hospital soon, this time a bit more sneaky-like.]

[d. The tavern has a very disappointing selection of alcohol, but Medic will soldier on regardless. Besides, everyone knows that bars are where you go for sensitive information from shady characters.]

[Looks like some crazy fucker is trying to slice open the drones. That's hilarious. Pyro approaches him with a grin.] Pissed at them already? What'd the fuckers do?

Re: b.

[Oh, he's only doing a little cutting, though it is the Medic... he doesn't even look up from his victim, who is berating him in a very displeased manner about the slice in his arm, even as he addresses the speaker.]

I assume you are not vhone of zhem? Zhey do not even fight back, zhough I have yet to kill vhone. Zhis is merely testing.

[hotfrombehind.livejournal.com]

No, 'course I'm not one of them. They talk funny-- you know, "Howdy neighbor! Isn't it a nice day?" and all that kinda shit.

Testing? What for, to see if they fucking bleed or something?

[gotyourbones.livejournal.com]

Zhat is funny? It just seems dull.

[Medic turns around, then cants his head slightly to the side. Well, that's odd.]

Only testing vhat they vill tolerate. I have not had much time for it yet.

[hotfrombehind.livejournal.com]

It is funny. At least, compared to the other fuckers around here.

Yeah, guess you just got here, right? You got that look about you. Well, drones don't do nothing, they just stand around and play the role the damn city gives them. Fucking stupid. And damn creepy. Kind like how you're fucking with them now. That's real fucking creepy, but-- [He pauses and squints at Medic's face.] Hey, what's your name?

I CAN POST AGAIN oh god

[gotyourbones.livejournal.com]

You vouldn't know it.

[Keeping his head tilted, Medic stares for a moment more, then closes one eye and lifts his thumb up to about eye level. This seems to clear up whatever was confusing him, at least, because he shakes it off with a rather unsettling grin.]

I'm not creepy. I'm curious. Zhere is a difference.

[hotfrombehind.livejournal.com]

Probably not, since I don't know a shitload of people, but still, there's something real fucking familiar about you-- including the whole fucking cutting up people thing. [He puts a hand over his heart, squinting his eyes at Medic.] You like doves?

Didn't say you were creepy, haven't seen enough of you to determine that yet. Still, cutting people open is creepy, even if it's just to satisfy your fucking curiosity.

[gotyourbones.livejournal.com]

I vould disagree.

[Where did that knife go? He's lacing his fingers together, so he can't possibly stab anyone with it right now.]

To be creepy is to cause vone to be unsettled or afraid, and I vould expect far better of you. Are you RED or BLU?

[hotfrombehind.livejournal.com]

BLU. [He squints again, but Medic's question confirms his guess.] And it does unsettle me a bit, considering we're not on the goddamn battlefield right now. What about you, RED or BLU?

[gotyourbones.livejournal.com]

I don't see vhy being on or off zhe battlefield vould make a difference. I'm certain you don't stop excessively lighting zhings on fire zimply because you are not being paid.

I work for BLU myself. Zhough, zhis place appears to be completely unconnected to eizher.
