Hoo, Luceti. You one and only [...sorry Azusa. This actually hurts way less than she thought it would, which makes her smile even broader.] warrens gal here.

[She's sitting atop a building in the setting sun. The journal is aimed at her side as he's sitting here on the ledge. In her hand she is spinning a tooth - the one she's holding is somewhat smaller than her forearm, so about the size of a typical dagger.]

In a bit've a broil. Got this tooth, and fig I oughta do something with it. Got some who told me to give it to meds, but don't wanna nuke it. Got any other thinks? Poss I won't get a thing, but might as well put 'em on the Grid.

[...Hah]

...Glad I got to go home. [A little contented sigh. She didn't get to stay, but even a day now that she can remember it makes all the difference in the world.]

Hard to be dull when you're a grabber and a Slayer.

[voice]

[redjacketthief]

I'm not sure what you mean by 'slayer', but if 'grabber' is what I think it is, we might be in close to the same profession.

[voice]

[makeitquick]

Grabber. Grab things, bring 'em to Gunther.

[voice]

[redjacketthief]

Acquisitions, then. I do the same, except I do it for no one but myself.

...is that how you got that tooth?

[voice]

[makeitquick]

Nope. This one's straight slaying - ripped it out of a wall.

[voice]

[redjacketthief]

Really now? [It really did sound like a Sarlacc.]

[voice]

[makeitquick]

A-yup. Fighting some zombies too.

[voice]

[redjacketthief]

[This earns a chuckle.]

...

That's awesome.

[voice]

[makeitquick]

Retro'd, kinda is.

[voice]

[redjacketthief]

I don't have any stories quite that crazy, but I've seen some pretty unbelievable things even at home. Immortal priestesses, aliens...

None of it was like fighting a horde of zombies though. The only hordes I know are Interpol.

[voice]

[makeitquick]

Zombie robots here, actually. What's an Interpol?

[voice]

[redjacketthief]

...the robots do act like zombies, don't they?

Interpol is an international police organization. They're internal systems aren't always up to snuff, but they do have a few shining officers.

[voice]

[makeitquick]

International... So, they're the Laws that the govvers uses. [...] Err, mean, they're in use all over the conti...nents. Continents.

[voice]

[redjacketthief]

Yup. They're active worldwide where I'm from. It's a little annoying.

[voice]

[makeitquick]

That mean you're worldwide to match?

[voice]

[redjacketthief]

Of course. Staying on one continent gets boring after a while.
