Boots wrestles his dented shoe off. "I can kick shit I shouldn't be able to kick but not like that!"

Permalink

"Sorry! I didn't expect it to be that bad! Is it broken? Should we go to the infirmary?"

Permalink

"I don't know how to tell the difference but it's damn sure not in working order!" says Boots, ripping his sock off and looking at his purpling little toe. "Fuck, I dunno how I'm gonna explain that if I have a fucking limp!"

Permalink

"Um, training accident? I mean, it's true."

Permalink

"No, I mean like." Pause. "At school and stuff."

Permalink

"Oh. Banged your pinky against a door real hard? Tripped on something?"

Permalink

"I guess that'll have to do," he grumbles.

Permalink

"Sorry," she repeats. "We should probably go to the infirmary though."

Permalink
"Mmhm."

Boots hops. It's kind of impressive, actually.
Permalink
She is suitably impressed!

"Want help?"
Permalink

"No."

Permalink
Okaaaay.

She goes with him.
Permalink

Hop hop hop. Boots presents his foot at the infirmary. They tape it up.

At more or less the same time, a girl in a black costume with white rewind arrows on it walks into the main tourist entrance, casual as all that.

"I'd like to turn myself in," she says very loudly in the middle of the hall as PRT officers start to react.
Permalink

The receptionist blinks. "I... I see," she says. "I'll just - who shall I say is here?"

Permalink
"Rewind."

The PRT officers quickly stand between her and the tourists, and the one in charge of the squad radios someone higher up about the situation.
Permalink
And an alert goes up that anyone who is not particularly disadvantaged at dealing with Rewind in particular should report to where she's at, Lorica should take point for her immunity, and everyone should be in costume or at least mask.

Boots, being particularly disadvantaged at dealing with Rewind in particular, puts his mask on and otherwise stays put.

Glam reports.

Rewind is waiting patiently.
Permalink

Lorica goes up to her, a couple of bots hovering overhead. "What are you turning yourself in for?"

Permalink

That gives her pause. "Being a villain?" she tries. "Er, I guess I stole some stuff but you guys didn't hear about it probably."

Permalink

"Hadn't come up. Why are you turning yourself in?"

Permalink

"Honestly because the alternatives are dancing to that fucker Lung's tune" she pronounces it 'loong' "or running from him forever, and he's way too murderous for my tastes. I don't actually want to turn in, though. Don't you guys make deals? I never even did a lot of bad stuff, I wanna join up, if it'll keep him away. Oh, you guys've been calling him Fireball, by the way."

Permalink

"Lung, okay. He's been trying to get you to work for him?"

Permalink

"You may not remember but after you guys knocked me out," and she shoots Glam a venomous look, making them grin, "he grabbed me and took me with him. I had to pretend I was going along."

Permalink

"Well, after we have stood here for ten minutes we can take you to the Director."
