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?

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?

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

What are you talking about?

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

You did what?

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

[identity profile] 4thdimensnskrt.livejournal.com 2010-10-06 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
Honestly, this is why I can't leave you on your own, Virginia.

Maya, I'm fine.

[identity profile] 4thdimensnskrt.livejournal.com 2010-10-06 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
So you say.

[identity profile] mymic.livejournal.com 2010-10-06 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
I didn't learn anything myself, unfortunately.

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

[identity profile] youthfulsmile.livejournal.com 2010-10-06 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
Surely you've not forgotten? This place has affected your memory more than I previously thought.

[identity profile] worst-apple.livejournal.com 2010-10-06 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
NO IT IS NOT!

[identity profile] rapier-ex.livejournal.com 2010-10-06 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
Okay, okay! Sorry!

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

...

I'm sorry. I didn't know this was going to happen. I... I lost control of my temper.

[identity profile] worst-apple.livejournal.com 2010-10-06 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
SHE TOOK MY HAT AND I HATE HER!

[identity profile] rapier-ex.livejournal.com 2010-10-06 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
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.

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

[siiiiigh]

You've learned your lesson now, though, right?

[identity profile] doc-furcoat.livejournal.com 2010-10-06 07:01 am (UTC)(link)
I missed a cat fight?

Shit.

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

[identity profile] rapier-ex.livejournal.com 2010-10-06 07:58 am (UTC)(link)
You weren't given it back?

[identity profile] rapier-ex.livejournal.com 2010-10-06 07:59 am (UTC)(link)
After nearly losing my ability to even speak? Yeah.

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

[[ aherder, kinda hard for Melody to be a "wise man" ]]

A... cat fight?

[identity profile] worst-apple.livejournal.com 2010-10-06 08:02 am (UTC)(link)
NO!

.....Why would she take my hat?
