hungryanhorny: (getting worried)
 [Faith's head was still spinning from her discussion with Wanda as she made her way back toward her rooms. When she'd accepted a job as a warden, she hadn't even thought about...

...Getting the cops off her back; doing some good; getting out of her dinky little apartment? It had seemed like enough. If she'd known about B, she might have asked for a little more  - but she had never even thought that...

She hadn't thought people could be brought back; that was supposed to be impossible. Basic rule of existence, right? 'Cept Wanda said otherwise; and she didn't think the girl was lying.]


[Public video/spam]

Someone wanna tell me how I get a person brought back t-


The flood's hit is a bit of a shock, stopping her mid sentence as she gets her first taste of emotions; she glances up and down the hall, suddenly on guard.]




((OOC: Been planning this a while, but got swamped. DX My monday's going to be hellish, too, but tuesday should see me mostly back. :) ))

[Fortunately (or unfortunately, for the conversation) he's only one way; a transmitter, not a receiver, so she gets a blank look, although some of the more negative emotions fade away a little in favor of distracting conversation, curiosity working its way a little further ahead than the rest. It's a puzzle, of a sort.]

Barge tends to reanimate as a rule. Die here, or during port, doesn't last long.

No. Not going crazy though. Just a flood.

[Confusion; it doesn't follow, as far as he's concerned.]

Don't always change shape during floods. Sometimes just thinking. Perception.

...Or life.

Can if part of deal.

[...Theoretically, anyway.]

Have to be a warden. Dead men can't bargain; too late for them.

Admiral. Assuming warden already.

[...Which he's a little doubtful of, because why would she be asking if she was already a warden? She should have made her deal already.]

Don't know.

[He's only an inmate, after all; he hasn't really bothered to look that far into the other side.]

[The shrug's as much verbal as physical; a halfhearted grunt that manages to be simultaneously apathetic and dismissive.]

Always this way. Not much for small talk.

[He never quite got the hang of it, not that his old partner didn't try.

There's a thoughtful pause, then:]


Who died?

[See? He's trying.]

wemaketheworld: ([masked]: introspective)
[A long pause, almost as if he's weighing every word, trying to find exactly the right ones before he speaks.]

Hope he grants it.

wemaketheworld: ([masked]: well that's ridiculous)
Hurm. No need to thank. Just sharing information.

[Uncomfortable; appreciation isn't something he's particularly adept at receiving. Not since the Roche case, anyway.]

Name's Rorschach.

Few months.

...It's an adjustment.

[All these PEOPLE, for one thing. New York was crowded, but somehow it had seemed less so. Here it was like sardines packed in a tin, you couldn't go far without finding yourself forced into a conversation with someone for one reason or another.

He almost wished for his streets again, for the predictability and dependability of the world and the people occupying it, but then they weren't his anymore. Never would be.]

Not bad now. In comparison.

[No, he just feels compelled to hide in his room to keep himself to himself. Nothing wrong with this one, really.

Although. It could always be worse.]

...Have an acquaintance named Bea?

[Not really judgmental. Just...puzzled.]
