robowest | [ WEEK FOUR ]

WEEK FOUR

CURRENT POPULATION: 28

It's a rather quaint town when you get down to it. At least, that's what the Sheriff would argue. Warm and dry in the mornings and afternoons with a brisk coolness in the evenings. The perfect type of weather to just sit out on your rocking chair and observe the comings and goings.

... Of course, there's not much in the way of comings and goings when there aren't any actual people here to watch. Nevertheless, don't let that get you down! The town is your oyster and those roosters won't stop crowing until everyone's out of bed. Up and at 'em, rise and shine, it's time to make the day yours!

After all, there's nothing wrong with the town today and you might just want to savor it while it lasts.

This post functions as the general mingle post for the week. Wanted Posters and other small events will be posted in top levels below. If there's any questions or requests, please send a PM or shoot a PP to

[Thanks, Jason you're the best seeing eye teen. You're also his only one, so. (But stop manhandling him??)

Shinnosuke has absolutely no idea what he and Jason have interrupted, so Hannibal and Will could've been having sex for all he knew (protect Jason's innocent eyes, though). Also, you know, he wouldn't care, but that's a minor detail.

In a flat tone:]

Milla and Xion broke into the gunsmith. No idea what the damage is, but c'mon, no break for you. Sorry, Doc.

[At least it's not two dumb teenage boys again??]

[UNLIKE SHINNOSUKE Jason still has functional eyes so that. Is. Definitely a thing he's seeing. And immediately looking away from. Gee, that spot on the ceiling sure is more fascinating than this Romantic Moment^TM they've just interrupted. Again. Sorry, Hannibal. Sorry, Will.

He at least has the decency to give both of these dudes an apologetic look as Shinnosuke finishes explaining, before gesturing for Hannibal to follow. He will also fulfill his duty by tugging Shinnosuke along and

maybe

not letting him fall flat on his face.

Depends on how much shit he talks on the way there.]

[ Technically speaking, he can't fault Shinnosuke for his rudeness too much, considering he can't see what he's interrupted. He'll have to take the apologetic look from Jason as an apology for the both of them, though he's still mildly exasperated that this has happened again so quickly. He's barely even had the kit made for a day, and he's already had to put it to use...

But even so, he hardly hesitates to follow along. In fact, he runs very slightly ahead, though he does give them a slight wave of apology as he goes by. ]

I will meet you there.

[ Because no offense boys, but he feels the situation is urgent enough to be a bit rude and outpace them. He arrives at the gunsmith before long, and giving a quick look between the two girls, he half tosses the bag down as he goes to Xion first. It's less bias and more the fact that one of them is visibly bleeding, though he does speak to Milla as he starts to inspect Xion. ]

Milla? Explain what happened, please.

[ In the few minutes their teenage saviors have been missing, Xion has just kind of been ... resting. Very quiet. She's not dying or anything, so that's nice - she's not even bleeding fast enough to cause a real problem for her, given the bolts still in her leg are preventing her from bleeding out.

But her system is completely overwhelmed by what's happened, so she's just kinda ... yeah, chilling. And trying not to pass out, actually.

She'll stir a little when she feels someone at her side, twisting her torso slightly and opening her eyes. ]

Dr. Lecter...

[ Ah. Moving was a bad idea. Pain shoots up her leg and her whole body goes tense, her expression contorting. Pardon her while she just. Digs her fingers into the ground and tries to grit her way through it. ]

[Milla's eyes are closed when the calvary arrives, but she's still breathing (and is learning how to breathe in a rhythm that causes the least amount of pain). honestly if Hannibal hadn't gone for Xion first, she would've directed him to since. yeah. VISIBLE BLEEDING?? and also what human dies from cracked ribs, come now. she's okay. she can handle this]

[(Milla no human bodies have limits you must realize them)]

There was a c-cannon, aimed at the d-door. [she pauses for a breath] It fired when we opened it, struck m-me, and then reloaded. Xion ran inside t-to shut off the mechanism. . . [breathing again] And was h-hit with arrows shot from crossbows.

She has since dis. . . disarmed the t-traps, but as you can see-- [both she and Xion have seen better days]

[ Hannibal digs into his bag, first pulling out a more effective tourniquet than the makeshift ones he's been using as well as a pair of scissors. He starts to wrap the tourniquet around Xion's leg, just above where the highest arrow sits, and as he works, he murmurs to her: ]

Don't move, Xion. Be still, but stay with me.

[ Because her passing out is a genuine concern, and though he can work with that, it's better if she's awake. As soon as the tourniquet is tied off tightly, he takes his scissors to her clothes to cut off her pants leg quickly, but rather roughly. He'll need that room to work. But even though Xion stays his focus for now, he's working quickly to stabilize her, because now that she's explained, Milla is actually more concerning. ]

You were hit by a cannonball? [ wtf ] Where? And where are you hurting?
