[ Is this man who’s tackling him down a twink, twunk, hunk, or bear? He double checks how drunk the man is when they topple down and weighs how much he should struggle.
You know what? He smack the guard’s head. ]
Don’t call me buddy. [ That is first and foremost. ] What are you doing drinking on the job?
Well, this is going spectacularly off the rails...
[A deep sigh, still keeping his voice low.]
I'm going to bribe him when he gets back with some extra alcohol if our man doesn't come up with a story. Make him play nice. We still have Arista to worry about, too. Wherever...she is.
[With any luck she could come back any minute and that's! BAD! FINISH THE WOLF DEAL YOU GUYS]
also, HELLO? the guard gets smacked, and looks confused about it for just a moment before punching joonghyuk back? like he just sucker punches him instead of giving an answer. how dare you question this probably corrupt man of the law.
speaking of arista! from inside the station, susato and sholmes hear a very annoyed, very loud female voice:]
Fuck - Hadrian! What are you doing out there? Why are the wolves howling?
[and the sound of stomping feet as someone comes to the door...
meanwhile, in definitely totally premium access land, winslow's brain stops working. she undoes one button and you can practically see the smoke coming out of his ears. this is likely the farthest this man has ever gotten with a woman or man. without hesitation, he closes his eyes! he even puts his hands over them, cheekily.
[ Ow? He punches him back? Hmmm... Actually, will they put him in prison if he tries to kill Hadrian?
He will pretend to try to kill Hadrian with an 18, whacking him hard with the cane to try to catch momentum and. I don't know. Force the cane against his neck. They will have to improvise, so he gives Susato and Sholmes a look to cut ties with him. You don't know him. He's just here to cause trouble.
[Susato is running off. He sighs to himself, hearing Arista coming. Okay. Sure. It's time.]
[It's time for the Grand Role of All Roles.]
Oh, if it isn't YOU!!
[And here comes Sholmes, still slurring his words, still stumbling a little, but absolutely furious as he rages towards YJH on the ground.]
What did I say about following me, huh?! I told you! We're absolutely, positively through! And what do you do, hm?!
[KICKING HIM IN THE SIDE (not too hard but it's dramatic enough that it looks like it).]
Ugh-! Men! [And ANOTHER KICK! A pause. And then turning to Hadrian, pouting, eyes watering.] Oh, I'm sorry, dear, I didn't mean you. You aren't terrible scum like this man is...
[typically people get put in prison for trying to kill people, yes
anyway, look, it's time to quote taz: you cannot non-lethally CLEFT SOMEONE IN TWAIN - which he didn't technically do, but pretending to kill someone with an 18 is pretty effective. what it means in practice is that the cane catches hadrian across the temple, and it knocks him the fuck out. the drunkard drops in a heap! maybe he also smothers joonghyuk a bit, enough to make joonghyuk woozy enough to skip hei a tag.
so sholmes and susato are just kicking the shit out of poor yjh while he bleeds and is squished by a bear. sholmes's crocodile tears would be very effective if hadrian wasn't out cold!
however, not all is lost, because the woman from earlier, arista, chooses this moment to slam the door open. she is greeted by this scene like troy with pizza, and looks... very confused, for a minute, before, just as loudly:]
What is the meaning of this?
[the wolf whines, unsure of who to eat. at least arista doesn't seem like she's going to murder anybody on the spot.
meanwhile, nanaly stone cold steve austins winslow out of existence. he drops like a sack of potatoes, and is completely out.
Arista? I am Naruhodo, the new trainee? I was helping Hadrian take down this miscreant!
I am so sorry for the trouble! As I was on my way this morning, I overheard this man saying he and his partner intended to conduct a jailbreak. Hadrian and I tried to apprehend him, but I’m a mere novice so I wasn’t able to knock him out in time.
[Oh, that's a good spin on it. He looks between Susato and the woman, frowning.]
Ah. Acchem. Of course. That sounds just like him-! [He's now just. Obviously lying. Still slurring his words, though.] What a scoundrel he is! I'm just a simple woman who's had such a rough night...a simple woman whose heart he broke...all into tiny pieces...
[ She would like to do Literally Nothing with Winslow, thank you, but what she's going to do is strip off his uniform and quickly change into it from her own clothes. She'll make sure the ID is in the pocket and check for anything else he might have on him (though does she really want to know what this guy might carry...).
Anyway. Maybe waking up here in his underwear with her own discarded clothes later will let him believe something really did happen. This is a kindness. ]
[there's a long pause as arista considers susato, and then considers sholmes. i rolled a 4 on her insight check, so this is how this goes: between the slurring, the stumbling, and the general vibe of sholmes being sholmes, arista just gets the most exhausted look on her face and moves over to grab sholmes by the scruff. she is surprisingly strong!]
Good work, trainee. [she says, immediately knocking sholmes against the wall and cuffing his hands behind his back. she wrinkles her nose, and glances at susato.]
... You go inside and get your uniform. That stupid bastard Winslow should be in there, he'll give you further instruction.
I'll... [sigh.] Take care of Hadrian. And this - uh. These two.
[meanwhile...
nanaly manages to put on the uniform, and find several things: his ID card, which gives access to the station, and also the wagons; a gun, with six bullets; some handcuffs; some dog treats; and a small wooden, carved figurine of a naked mermaid. congrats, i think?
winslow remains unconscious on the floor of the break room. in plain sight.]
[She salutes and then she runs off. She'll peer into the room Nanaly is in first, and then, seeing the sight, will go inside, and start looking for a convenient place to hide the body.]
Quick, get dressed. I'm the new trainee Naruhodo, and you knew I'd be here today. You processed my paperwork, but I didn't want to work with you because you are so very lecherous.
[Well, now he's shoved against the wall and handcuffed. Ohhhh no. How could this have EVER happened. His voice definitely drops down into his regular register, the bottle of alcohol in his hand dropping onto the ground.]
Tch! You could stand to be a little more gentle-!
[But the jig is up. He's probably just. Going to hang out here. With his "ex". Hey, YJH. 'Sup.]
At least that part should be convincing. All right, give me a few here.
[ Gonna duck into the bathroom to do this appearance change thing! And then poke her head out (which with any luck should look like his now??? which is probably vaguely unnerving) after a bit. ]
We can probably just shove him in one of the stalls unless you've got a better idea.
outside, arista looks down at the bottle of booze that dropped, and makes an annoyed sound.]
Oh, I can guess what you were going to do with that. [she says, annoyed.] Maybe I should just leave him out here to be eaten. Gods.
[yjh is still being smushed on the ground by hadrian, which i think is very funny. arista kicks her foot against the back of sholmes's knees to drop him down to the ground, and then goes to try and move hadrian so she can also cuff yjh.
inside, nanaly now looks identical to winslow! winslow himself is still drooling on the floor.
the station itself is two rooms. the breakroom, which nanaly is in, and the main room, which is basically a bit like a police station pit. there are a few desks, lockers up against the wall, and a big cell area towards the back. there are currently no prisoners there.
the breakroom has the bathroom attached to it, with several stalls inside.]
[Great. Well. She's going to drag Winslow's nude body into the main room and shove him into a locker. She grabs a spare pair of underwear or a shirt or towel from the locker and stuffs it into his mouth.]
Winslow [Addressing Nanaly] will you bring me my uniform and a spare pair of handcuffs?
Handcuffs, huh? If that's what you're into, you got it.
[ Winks and fingerguns!
With the smile of someone who's dead inside.
All right, let's see. Can we find a spare uniform appropriate for a trainee in one of these lockers? Probably too much to hope that someone's left an ankle device in one, but she'll check a few... ]
[winslow is in the locker with underwear in his mouth! he's going to wake up very confused, but that's fine.
but lucky them! the lockers do in fact have spare uniforms, in a few different sizes. you can find one that approximately fits susato in there somewhere. there are also little tiny devices hanging from a rack in one of the lockers. they appear to be activated by a button, and the little LCD screens that light up read 01, 02, 03, etc. when pressed. it can be assumed that these are the ankle devices that duster mentioned.
outside, both sholmes and yjh are sitting against the wall. it's nearly seven, and arista pokes her head into the building:]
Trainee! Hurry up! Guess we have an unexpected delivery tonight.
[She will handcuff Winslow in the locker as well, if there are any available? Otherwise, just tie his hands together behind his back with a belt. Anyway, as soon as Arisa opens the door, she will slam the locker shut and start getting dressed very quickly.]
Yes, ma'am! Sorry, ma'am, Mr. Winslow had wanted to tell me a personal anecdote. . .
[Obviously the fact that he's in here is why she hadn't changed yet.]
