15th elevator-Written/action

[ He's heard about the second killing but since he still thinks it's the work of The Doctors he's not asked about the finer details like the minions that were found around Brock. He's convinced this is some form of retribution from the fates for escaping the monster purge back home with such a quick and easy death.

After sitting at a table in the dinning room for twenty minutes with his head in his hands and a scotch at his side he sits up and begins writing.]

[ Private ]
Oh Ancient ones whose legend has overseen the dawn of existance hear me now.
Deliver us from this great evil so we may bask in your greatness once more.
Forgive us for our sins and failings.
And may you bless us with everlasting peace and your eternal slumber.
As it ever was.

[ He then puts the pen down and continues to just stare at the wall. Either he's unaware that he's in danger being by himself or he just doesn't care. ]

...Please tell me you haven't gone batshit insane. We got enough crazy.

No just gathering my thoughts...and none of them are good.

Dude, there is nothing good about any of this.

[He rubs his forehead...He'd never been this stressed out before. Well maybe on the Event Horizon but that wasn't helped by him tripping balls.]

You'd have to be a seriously fucked up individual to get any kind of joy from this shit.

Do you believe in Karma dude?

Right? Oh, don't go looking for that Steve guy. That dude is nine levels of fucked up and liking this.

[Tucker actually had to think about that one.] Considering all the times I've gotten kicked in the balls? ... Yeah. Yeah I do.

Seriously? Man Paradisa really does cater for all tastes.

...You don't think this is retribution for our past sins do you?

It is the home of the seriously whacked.

[Again, he has to scratch his head at that.] Meybe. It's possible. Although I would think karma would be a little more ... I don't know, direct. This shit doesn't make any sense to me.

[He shakes his head before writing again.]

Things are never that simple dude...

Well, how complicated are we talking?

You're a soldier right?

I'm guessing you've killed in the field of battle?

Well, yeah. Used to be 'mostly by accident', then shit got serious.

You wouldn't consider this "payback" for your accidental kills?

[Because he's sure as shit considering it payback for his.]

No, because all those fuckers came back. Also, Agent Wyoming was a douche who killed thousands of people. HE fucking deserved it.

The ends justify the means right?

Depends on the ends, dude. I mean, do I feel bad that I had to kill people as a soldier? Hell yeah. I can't justify those deaths except for like, line of duty. But when it was someone like Wyoming? Fuck dude - you gotta think of the greater good.

[That gets a smile.]

You do what you have to in order for the world to keep turning... and you shouldn't be penalised for that.

Exactly.

You just can't ... you know, abuse it. Start thinking everything is for the greater good. That's when you get fucked up, and forget about your friends.

[M had gone down to the kitchen to get something to eat between shifts at the clinic, and catches sight of someone in the adjacent room out of the corner of her eye. no one should be out alone - yes, she's being a hypocrite, but honestly, she knows how to run and it's only a short hop to the elevator and then up to the clinic. after her brush with Silva, she's not as afraid as she was before, some of her old steel confidence back in her step. so she strides briskly over to the door, paper bag of sandwiches for the volunteers in hand, and raps on the doorframe to get the attention of whoever's sitting there like a lout with his back to the wall]

[ The noise makes him jump somewhat, but he at least snaps out of his trance. He turns around in his chair...half expecting to see The Gentleman there ready to give him what he deserves.

It's a pleasant surprise to find M staring back at him. He gives her a wave and a half hearted smile. His usual warmth is somewhat lacking.]
