CALL network | video | un: highnoon

[It's not exactly the introduction McCree was expecting to make - not that this whole thing is anything he would've expected to begin with - but after hassling people over poetry, it's time to get down to business.

And he definitely has the time to spare.]


So does this kind of shit happen here often? [He gestures with the lit cigar he's holding.] Just casual news posts about serial killers, rounded off with fancyass coffees?

[He pauses to take a drag, mulling it over. Maybe it's not his place, but something needs to be done.]

Is anyone else gonna hunt that bastard down, or am I gonna have to do it myself?

[Is it any surprise that Mercy is so quick to reply to McCree's aggression? It isn't entirely out of disdain for his method of "law enforcement" - her friend has just announced his intent to chase a serial killer publicly. She can't imagine this going any way but poorly.

She joins the call despite clearly having a patient behind her. Once she's sure she's in the frame and connected, she props the device up so she can work and talk.]


Violence is rarely the best answer to this sort of situation. I agree the killer must be caught, but I do not agree that you have to be the one to do it.

[She doubts there is any use in bringing up the fact that there are police AND an entire network of heroes here to deal with this. With a sigh, she puts down her tools and faces the camera head-on with a stern frown.]

And put that awful thing out. Every one of those you put in your mouth takes a year off of your life. It's a miracle you're still alive between those things and this sort of behavior.

[Then she sees it. Or rather, she registers it. Her face forms a cold mask. What did she miss? Why didn't he come to her when it happened? She takes a deep breath.]

Jesse McCree. You need to come to the Outpost and both explain to me what you did to your arm and allow me to make sure it was installed correctly.

[...That has to be a record, doesn't it? How long has Jesse McCree been in this place before trying to tackle a given problem by himself? There was something admirable about the boy's sense of Right and Wrong, but in practice... It's a wonder that she didn't go grey sooner.]

You know, they have police in this city. I believe the broadcast specifically made a point of that.

[There's a pause, and then an additional message:]

Are you supposed to be some kind of cyborg?

[Son, where the hell did you get that arm from? She doesn't remember that being there.]

It is quite a mother fuckin curiosity to see! Never have I known such wonder and depravity simultaneous in anything who shared not the name of my moirail, my best, he knows things no troll my standing ought. Of here, I suspect a ruse! How else could it all be? The beings here are vastly kind.

Each one of the cities is, well, a little different.

And from what I've seen, they're not opposed to outside help. They just don't expect it.

That's...more or less normal, from what I've seen. I can't say I've spent much time in Shadows, but I can help. I can scout and incapacitate him if I find him. We'll need to learn what he looks like, though.

[The voice speaks in a deliberate, poetic tone. Crunching metal, revving engines, and frenzied screaming rise and fall in the background as if the speaker is walking past a terrible spectacle.]
