Sixth Wind [Drone Filter]

Of Jack Smith is there to keep an eye on Jane Smith as part of his job, and everything else I've heard is true...

At the party, I lost my cool and almost slapped Jane for comments she was making about my father. She didn't know what she was doing, though. I had no right. But the moment I tried to slap her, a small blade manifested in my throat. I could barely talk, much less continue my confrontation.

... Instinctively, I drew my gun on her. But the look in her face... she was absolutely terrified. Drones don't show fear, right? Not that kind. It was sincere and real and... I couldn't do it. I couldn't pull the trigger. What's more, in spite of my anger, and in spite of pointing a gun at her head, she helped me. If it weren't for her making a call to the doctor, I would be dead.


... What else is there to know about Jane Smith?

SHE TOOK MY HAT.

... N-no offense, ma'am, but it's rude to wear a hat indoors anyways.

[worst-apple.livejournal.com]

NO IT IS NOT!

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

Okay, okay! Sorry!

Partial respiratory paralysis...

This is not the first time you have suffered because of your father.

Nor is it the first time you turned your gun on innocent people. [OOC: Confusion ftw! Feel free to ignore this line if doesn't fit with your plans :) Anyhoo, there's a pause.]

Did I mention I'm a doctor now?

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

What are you talking about?

[youthfulsmile.livejournal.com]

Surely you've not forgotten? This place has affected your memory more than I previously thought.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

I don't want to deal with you dancing around the topic, Malik. If you have something to say, say it clearly.

_{[This is why we can't let you out of our sight for more than ten seconds.]}

You did what?

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry, Maya... that's why I had to leave early.

[4thdimensnskrt.livejournal.com]

Honestly, this is why I can't leave you on your own, Virginia.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

Maya, I'm fine.

[mymic.livejournal.com]

I didn't learn anything myself, unfortunately.

...What sort of comments did she make, though?

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

About my father?

She claimed to know him. That he was a mechanic, and that he had no brother, negating the very existence of Uncle Tesla.

[mymic.livejournal.com]

I see. And what was your father, then? I don't believe you ever told me about him.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

He was a scientist... one of the Council of Seven who tried to restore Filgaia in the past.

I missed a cat fight?

Shit.

An' 'ere I thought the party had been borin'.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

A... cat fight?

[doc-furcoat.livejournal.com]

Yeah, two babes fightin'. Cat fight. [And he doesn't care to explain it more than that.]

[glittering-ash.livejournal.com]

What happened to you...?

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

Just what I said. Promise.

[glittering-ash.livejournal.com]

Well, how rude.

Where does this woman live?

...fear.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

Exactly. Drones don't express fear. She did.

In the event of another party, I offer myself as backup. I encountered 'Jack' and was unharmed.
