sharpsurprise | Video & text

Several weeks ago Captain Rogers asked who would be willing to help patrol in emergency situations. He's relayed the information to me. Since everyone has very unique qualities, I will refrain- for now- from making too tight a schedule. However, if the situation is dire enough, please try to take directions as to who has to go where.

I've made a list pairing people according to their strengths.

Iris Wildthyme & Loki Laufeyson.
Sergeant Bucky Barnes & Stephanie Brown & Helena, if she wishes.
Arthas Menethil & Lydia Martin.
Kira Yukimura & Peter Parker. Preferably on deck and the upper levels.
Eugene Sledge & Steve Rogers. Preferably vital areas.
Ben & Souji Okita. Preferably vital areas.
Luna Lovegood & Jax Teller.

[Handwritten lists are left on the doors of those involved!]

Please let me know if you object to any of these, and we will find a way to make this work out as best as we can. In extreme situations we will patrol in shifts of 4 hours, allowing everyone enough rest to work at maximum capacity. Those with increased abilities should feel free to patrol alone or with other teams after their regular shift has finished, of course! But please don't strain yourself, for your sake as much as that of others.

If anyone else would like to volunteer, please let either myself or Captain Rogers know, so we can be as organized as possible. And if everyone feels the arrangements are alright, I believe Miss Lovegood and Miss Wildthyme have offered to help us practice...?

I'll try to keep it at the right level.

Severe bodily harm might be the limit! [He laughs a little, but honestly- with his own sword practice light bodily harm was at least to be expected.]

Might be. [He points out.] Don't worry. I won't hurt no-one specific without their express permission.

Perhaps not even then?

Who knows how this shit'll turn out? You want me to cause mayhem, I will, but don't come cryin' to me when somethin' gets caught in the crossfire.

I'm sure we'll be able to prevent any 'crossfire', Mr. Teller!

Well, I suppose that's the point of all this.

I promise not to 'urt you too much, petal.

So much for benevolent jailkeeping.

Don't tell me you aren't looking forward to this, lovey.

The threat of bein' hurt on capture is causin' second thoughts.

I thought I'd just promised not to. Any road, I volunteered for Team Troublemaker and all. I'm looking forward to seeng what you can do in that capacity.

Watch and learn, then.

'As anyone shown you what the Enclosure can do yet, Jax love?

Never seen it.

I thought you might not 'ave. Luna's got 'er wand, she doesn't need to learn 'and to 'and combat; but that's what it's for. You can program it for 'ologram opponents, it's good practise. Fancy a go?

I don't need practice.

[This is Iris rolling her eyes.]

Everyone needs practise, you great blond numpty. Any road, it's fun.

[And this is Jax being suspicious of people offering things after they've just declared a competition and/or threatened him.]

Maybe I ain't up for that kinda fun?

Suit yourself, petal, it's 'ardly fun if you're not up for it. I just don't 'ave enough folk to go with, these days.

If you're really looking for a punching bag, some of us are better at taking a hit than others.

Although this is more about keeping us sharp than actual brawling, you realize.

Hey, you people order chaos and mayhem, that's what you'll get.

Then that'll be fine. [Just so long as it's directed toward a purpose... never mind that that's the opposite of the definition of "chaos and mayhem," okay.] Just remember, a drill's a drill for a reason.

Yes, sir.

[It's said lazily, with an accompanying salute. Trust the screws to suck all the fun out of this.]

[Steve just gives him a look, but it's not actually one that's really disapproving. He trusts Luna. Plus, there'll be a bunch of other wardens around if anything goes seriously wrong.

And on the other hand? An actual challenge miiiiight not be unwelcome. How else is anyone going to stay sharp?]

Then have fun.
