2nd Case

[A throat clearing is heard, Kate's still not entirely sure how this journal's supposed to work]

Is there some kind of law enforcement organization here? I'm a cop back home, and I was curious if there's any need for that service.

[Well THAT gets his attention. He raises an eyebrow. The fact that the question had to be asked at all is concerning. Have a smooth English accent coming over the journal, Kate.]

If there is a law enforcement agency in this place they're doing a poor job of it if you aren't aware of its existence.

[Thankfully even though he may not be able to see her, she does have a lovely voice so she's getting a much warmer reception than most of the other people he's spoke with today]

I've just arrived this morning, as it were. I'm still not so sure about that whole wishing business.

To say the very least. Of course many things about this place do.

I certainly hope not. How pointless such a thing would be.

The people in town -- the natives of this place or whatever -- do their own thing. If there's a crime between themselves, they take care of it.

As far as us people, not really. There used to be a thing called Peace Patrol, but with guys from all over the place with different ideas of how the law worked, it kind of started turning into a martial law thing so it disbanded. Now it's pretty much an anarchy, so. On the plus side, we usually got our fair share of superheroes and vigilantes -- and people who are cops or spooks or whatever -- to smack around anybody who's being a dick.

There are no governments in this castle, nor any military. Unless you wish to be a mercenary for hire, you are out of work, dolcezza.

Look at you, all getting back to business.

Well, yeah, the people down in the city. I mean, most of 'em; some people from the castle move out there...

[He can explain this better.] There's us -- the people magically whisked away here -- and there's the others, who are born, live, and die here like it's a regular world.
antimafia: (just take a good look)

Do you have some kind of supernatural powers? Magic, or advanced technology?
assassino: (calm ❧ you better shake him off)

[personal profile] assassino 2013-03-15 03:26 pm (UTC)(link)
As far as I have seen in a year, no.

My friend is a mercenary. [By which he means himself.] There's been no work for him at all.

I still find the whole concept difficult to swallow.
antimafia: (and believe me heads will roll)

[personal profile] antimafia 2013-03-17 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
That's a place to start, at least. But I think that quite a few of us here have no fear of guns.
assassino: (calm ❧ now the final battle)

[personal profile] assassino 2013-03-17 05:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Have you done work as a mercenary? I was under the impression that law enforcement in your time was an arm of those who govern the land, rather than contracted men.

That's so you. And one of the many things I admire about you.
