[ So it looks like Vandal is making this call while traveling back to the medbay from the bar after the Calling ended. Her helmet is on and her voice is filtered through her modulator, but there is a tremble to it. ]

I just found First Aid.

He's dead.

I don't know how. I just found his body off the edge of this outcropping.

I can't fucking stand this place.

Thanks, Vandal. [He makes a sour face for a second and moves his hands down to pull her closer adn hide the view.]

Is _{there someone else} that could take you to the temples? I will..stay here investigating.

Be WAS but perhaps he got into a fight with someone.

You have every right to be upset. None of us expected to throw you into this situation as part of your development as a medic.

It's a lot. More than anyone should ever ask of a trainee.

You have done well, Vandal. We would have suffered worse without you. That, I do know.

I just don't know, Kay. I'm gonna be honest with you, I'm really not sure when it will stop. There are some bad people here.

...

I wish I could do something...

[Because as it stands, the most she can do is run from them.]

[Video]

[vandalization]

I know. I do too.

[>action~]

[vandalization]

Mmm... [ She'll just lean on him a little.]

Drift is coming to get me.

I don't see how... he wouldn't have fought, though.

[audio]

[vandalization]

Right I-

[ Oh, he hung up. ]

Sorry.

Ambulon...

[vandalization]

Okay. Alright. I promise.

[vandalization]

I-







Thanks. Magnus.

Thank you.

I'm sorry for biting your head off.

[audio]

[tearsofsteel]

Great.

You have any idea if the jaguar was involved?

[audio]

[vandalization]

FUCK! I don't know! God damn it! Don't question me about it right now! fuck fuck fuck!

[audio]

[tearsofsteel]

Okay, okay.

Just calm down. Just find someplace safe. Someone will try their best to salvage the body.

[audio]

[vandalization]

I d-

I'm sorry.

He was my friend. I'm not a cop. They'll figure it out.

[audio]

[tearsofsteel]

No, I'm sorry.

It's pretty easy to get impersonal when it comes to this job.

[ex_dishonestly997]

yes me

ive already been to the badlands once

and i dont know what to do with human compassion

i was meaning to ask you to teach me im sure it's learnable

[Video] Assume he didn't respond until yesterday

[winged_knight]

[After seeing the last person off from the bar after the Calling ended, Wing never did make it back to his quarters. Functioning on a quarter of the recharge he needed for 5 days had taken its toll, and he falls asleep right there in the bar.]

[He wakes the next day to more chaos on the net, and none of which he can ignore, but this one is the worst. He still looks tired and his audial flares are crumpled by strong hands, but now he's also aghast at this news.]

Karrie! Are you alright!? Tell me you're not there anymore? [He's worried you may have befallen the same fate.]

[Video] [Locked]

[vandalization]

Wing? Yes, I'm. Alright as I can be. What the hell happened to your-

Your. Cheek. Thingies? [ Making little swirly motions pointing to her head. She means your helm flares. ]

[audio]

[vandalization]

Yeah. It's fine. Whatever. Just. Really upset right now.

[vandalization]

I...

Yeah. It is.

I dunno how to go about teaching that other than simply letting you uh. Learn by example, but I'm willing to try...

[>action~]

[raceme]

[He's more than okay with that.]

Good good... You think so? he was too nice for his own good.

I will find the responsible Vandal.

[Video] [Locked]

[winged_knight]

[He looks relieved] Good. I'm sorry, after all that's happened...

_{First Aid...} [He bows his head. What can he even do, or say?]

Ah... It's nothing, really. Cosmetic mostly [Except the way it stings when he moves them.] Nothing to trouble a medic about.

[>action~]

[vandalization]

Thank you, Blurr.

[Video] [Locked]

[vandalization]

Yeah. Me too. Believe me I- the more I think about it the more fucking angry I feel.

To say the least, we were close.

Bullshit, let me take a look at it. I won't take no for an answer.

[Video] [Locked]

[winged_knight]

[He frowns as he considers all the possibilities, who might be involved, what should have been done about it... It might be the ugliest look she's seen on his face.]

[Then he tries to shake it off.] I know. Closer than I was, but he was an easy mech to like, and an excellent medic. He deserved far better.

Vandal, I--Look, it was just. The Calling, at the end. It got very intense. [Small wonder now why he'd hidden in the back room near the end. If he was going to break, it needed to be away from others.] It's fine, there are much bigger issues right now. It can wait.

[Video] [Locked]

[vandalization]

I- ... I know he did. I feel awful about it.

[ Oh. You get. The Look. ]

Wing? Next time I see you, you will sit down and you will let me have a look at you. Understood? I am in a really bad mood and I swear to god if you give me any bullshit I will disassemble your feet.

[ It's obviously not a serious threat, but she is serious about taking care of him. ]
