THIRD ENTRY [VIDEO]

[keepsthemsafe]

[Post This Shane is sitting in a common room. Serious.

It's worth noting that he's wearing a uniform. A sheriff uniform. He went out and got drunk see, so he's trying to just figure things out. Those of you who might pass by, if you're in the neighborhood will note he reeks of alcohol.]

How many of you are actual law enforcement professionals, former, retired, here for rehabilitation or whatever. No disrespect t'anybody who's workin' outside the law for justice. Lord knows I earned my stripes on a wing and a prayer but...

[Megamind got to him.

He never thought he'd actually be doing this. It feels so weird. He'd left this, the idea of law and order behind but oh god he needs normalacy, he needs people that aren't blue with giant heads that think he's an animal. Ever seen the Matrix where Neo realizes just how screwed he is and he throws up? Shane is close to that.]

I'm curious.


And t'those of you not here for rehabilitation who happen to hold these particular credentials and are...wardens... I would like to speak with you. Privately.


[Private, triple locked to Batman.]


...Bruce Wayne? Billionare Bruce Wayne? [It's a shot in the dark]

[and then he continues]

[He's rubbing his hands together, video grainy]

That's no good. Y'all didn't do nothin.

[Arthas this enforces even more that you're a part of the CDC okay.]

Voice

[darknessb4me]

I don't have to listen to this.

[Gone.]

[voice]

[je_suis_avec_toi]

Of a sort. I don't know the equivalent in modern language. I was a diplomat and part of Le Secret du Roi.

Re: [voice]

[keepsthemsafe]

A diplomat? [that doesn't count to him, but...]

what's secret de rou rou.

[voice]

[je_suis_avec_toi]

Secret du roi, literally 'King's secret.' Some would have said spies, I suppose but it was more than that.

So not law enforcement, though domestically there was a little bit of trying to find lawbreakers, investigating and sometimes getting a warrant. My brother did more of that than I did. Louis XV, who is in God's grace, usually preferred sending me out of the country.

Re: [voice]

[keepsthemsafe]

...Louis?

Ain't that a king? that.. [Woah.] You here as a warden or an inmate?

[spam?]

[twooutoften]

[He'd meant to follow up after. Tommy doesn't get many potential friendlies, let alone friends in general; when he gets a whiff of the guy with the gun he figures he should probably go say hi.

And then the wave of booze hits him. There's a momentary expression of distaste, just because it's so damn strong to his canine nose, but he's spent enough time in a bar that it's manageable. At least it's only one guy. So he strides on over, posture every inch a wannabe-alpha that can't back up the claim, neutral but friendly expression in place, and actually fully dressed this time. Ratty t-shirt and old jeans over well-used boots, but hey. Dressed is dressed, and he's not about to break out the Merlotte's t-shirt yet.]

Yeah, guess that about makes sense.

[The uniform. Explains the gun, explains the fact that he was trying to help, more or less.]

Ship gettin' to you already, I'm guessin'.

[Spam!]

[keepsthemsafe]

[Shane blinks, looks up from the comm and manages a smile.]

Some big blue guy said some things.

[Accurate things] Never thought I'd be puttin' on my duds again.but I kinda wanted to remind myself of what the fuck 'm doin'. here.

...You all right?

[Spam.]

[twooutoften]

Yeah, some'a the folks here are fuckin' assholes, my warden says you just gotta ignore 'em an' find the decent ones or some shit.

[A sentiment which he evidently doesn't really agree with 100%, but Jesse's not a complete dick so whatever.]

I'm okay. [A shrug.] Port sucked but that's life. What parish?

[Spam.]

[keepsthemsafe]

I had t'kind of remind myself that if I'd gone and hit him it'd be like hittin' a dog or a cat or somethin' and I don't...I don't do that.

[Oh my god you said Parish. Shane perks up at that] ..King's County Georgia. You?

[not here]

[megamind]

[ Oh God he's an inmate cop. This just gets better and better. He'll be drawing some arrowed lines between CRAZIES and WILDCARDS on his chart now. ]

[timesbureaucrat]

My occupation often involved enforcing certain types of laws, although I wouldn't say that I was in any way equivalent to a police officer. [That's the Chancellery Guard. And the Celestial Intervention Agency and the Chancellery Guard don't exactly get along.] More like a federal agent.

[keepsthemsafe]

[Shane shakes his head and smiles softly] Feds. Same team different rules. What do you do here? Warden or inmate?

[timesbureaucrat]

[Different rules indeed.]

Warden.

[keepsthemsafe]

...Is there like...a head warden?

[batmanschmatman]

I was a cop for two years, but I've been working in law enforcement since I was nine.

[keepsthemsafe]

[Since you were nine.

When Shane was nine, he watched Rick Grimes cry after falling out of the tree in their shared back yard.] That's a hell of a history.

And here? Who're you with? Warden or inmate?

[batmanschmatman]

Warden. I brought you down to Zero, remember?

[theonlyresponse]

[Hey Shane. Recognise this voice? It's that guy you met in the gym and you thought he was James Bond.] Yes?

Re: private; voice

[keepsthemsafe]

[And then James Bond actually showed up]

Why are you an inmate here? Talk about a fuckin' broken system that's just fucked.

private; voice

[theonlyresponse]

Broken system. [Doy.]

[toldinthebook]

I'm a Sheriff. [ Always am, never was as she plans on getting back there ] And a Warden.

[keepsthemsafe]

Sheriff? [his interest perks at that] You an' I are in the same business ma'am. It's a pleasure.

Apart from bein' on different sides of the aisle. [He's so glad about this though. So glad]

[toldinthebook]

Apparently there's a few here. Not sure about Sheriff's but law enforcement. [ Dean had told her as much when she'd arrived but she hadn't asked around since ]

You're an inmate?
