Day 258 [Audio | DF] [Audio/Action | Open]
[Audio | Encrypted to Defense Force]

[How often does she use audio instead of video?]

I want to make some changes to our structure, but this is up for discussion and input so don't go carving anything into stone yet.

We're having trouble balancing some of the combat teams with members leaving and the prison isn't exactly tiny, but it's not giant and sprawling either, so I think we should consolidate into two regular teams and a specialty, auxiliary team for sector 6 investigations.

I want to combine sectors 0, 1, 2 and 3 under Jack. And sectors 4, 5, and 6 under me. Then Jack and I both need to choose one or two members to keep trained and up to speed on everything. [In case we disappear.]

We'll work out who can also be part of the sector 6 team later once we get the kinks worked out of this. [Not a top priority.]

Deanna and M'gann I want to talk to both of you about the interview team. [Since she's suddenly alone there.]

We also need more volunteers on dispatch until we can get it restaffed.

[She clears her throat. She can get through the rest of this. One word in front of the other until she gets there.] I also want to make Data the head of the investigation team [the pause isn't long, but it is meaningful] since Dr. Spencer Reid is lost in the stabilizer.

[Audio/Action | Open]

Reid is gone. Keep your condolences. [This has been a courtesy call from his grieving girlfriend, and that's all you get. You might see her out working though. Keeping busy might be her friend right now. DF headquarters, training hall, library, educational facility, and yeah, the Devil's Compass.]

(OOC: Like she said, this isn't in stone yet, so keep your eyes on the Defense Force sections of the upcoming Sunday Speakeasys for more details! Join the DF here. Current roster. Notes on Reid's disappearance)

	[He makes a noise, a hum in his throat.] ... I recommend smashing something. Plates, a good vase. [He speaks from experience, judging by the tone.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You should've seen the door to the guest bedroom here. [Off its hinges, demolished for weeks.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I feel like there's a joke in there somewhere. [Something about creepy peeping maybe. She's not going to try and pull it together though. It's not a funny day.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He laughs, but humorlessly. And he pauses for a drag of a cigarette.] I don't have good advice. I chose bloody knuckles over a sensible reaction. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Sounds pretty damned sensible to her right now. But she's keeping herself from going there again. She doesn't want to deal with even more destruction.]

Didn't ask for any. It just...sucks. [She could use more words. Better words. She could write a sonnet about it, but it wouldn't bring him back. It would just bring it all rushing up at once and she doesn't think she can handle that.]

	[This pause indicates Tyki's not as practiced at comforting women, at least not in anything more than a shallow 'there, there'. He has to think, and even then he's not sure his words are right.] You can come by the Compass. You don't even have to drink. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Gotta work a shift later. [The bet's not off yet is it?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noahism 2014-02-14 04:27 am UTC (link)
	I'll let you get off early if you eat dinner here. [No, not like a date. Don't worry, his tone is vacant of any flirtation.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-02-14 04:30 am UTC (link)
	I'm having dinner with Nathan. [She's not even sure if that will work out to be true, but she can't just recede completely into her work. He was important to Reid and she's not going to let him down.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noahism 2014-02-14 04:34 am UTC (link)
	Oh, the kid? [Tyki likes him because he's a creepy little thing, but he wonders why she's hanging with him.] You could bring him along. [Or not, he's just giving suggestions.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Nope. [Before Reid left she wasn't even going to mention there was any connection with her and him. She's still not going to mention one to Reid, but now it doesn't feel like it matters. Lots of things don't feel like they matter, but she doesn't think Tyki would want to pick at him to get to her. Naive maybe. He's hurt her before. But she likes to think it wasn't exactly intentional.]

I'll be there for my shift though.

	Mm, alright. I'll see you then. [He doesn't have much more to say, not over these things.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[It won't be for hours. In fact it might even be "late" but she shows up at the bar, slipping in through the closed door—untouchable. At least that's how she wants to seem.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Late is good, not many people stick around in the Compass without reason and so it's just him for the moment. Granted his back is turned to the door, fingers skimming over bottles to rearrange them where they stand. It's almost as if he doesn't notice her, but what remains of his collection of Tease are scattered around the darkest corners of the bar, up in the woodwork and in small nooks and crannies; they notice her and he notices them.

He doesn't turn around, flicking his ashes to the floorboards.] You're sure about the drink?

	[It's going to be hard to busy herself with just him there, but she gets a rag out to start wiping things down.] I'm sure. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noahism 2014-02-14 06:50 am UTC (link)
	[He turns around, and like a good alcoholic he's got a drink in hand. Wine, which he swirls gently in his glass.] I do have one request, and that's if you break any bottles, try not to go for the reds... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-02-14 03:28 pm UTC (link)
	Why would I break your bottles? Is everyone just waiting for me to self destruct? It's not like I didn't know this was coming. [She knew it could come. She didn't want to believe it would. She wanted to believe in a future for them.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noahism 2014-02-14 10:39 pm UTC (link)
	[He shrugs.] I find it cathartic. But you knew, hm? [That's an interesting thing to say.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-02-14 10:44 pm UTC (link)
	Not like it can't happen to anyone any time. You might be gone tomorrow. [...Don't leave tomorrow.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noahism 2014-02-14 11:36 pm UTC (link)
	[At that, he laughs.] Hardly, this place has its claws in me. In us. We must be troublesome, the two of us, huh? [They broke rules. Get punished well after the collars are gone? Is that it?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-02-15 03:01 am UTC (link)
	Guess so. [And that's their punishment. To get close to people over and over again only to lose them.] Be a hell of a thing if this whole place was for our benefit. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noahism 2014-02-15 03:15 am UTC (link)

	And do what? Write a poem about how much this sucks? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noahism 2014-02-16 01:27 am UTC (link)
	And grieve. [Again he shrugs. Sips his wine, turning back to sorting bottles.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
