First Arrest. [Video and Locked to People]
[It figures that George's first post to the network would be private and locked to two specific people. He sends two quick messages.]
[Private to Peter Parker-or at least the person he suspects is Peter Parker]
[He suspects, because he read through that network post. Because over twenty years on the NYPD is enough to make him suspicious.]
Nice Picture.
[He could be wrong. He might kick himself if he is but.]
[Private to Gwen Stacy.]
[George looks a little tired but.] How would you feel if I told you I was looking at security as something to do to keep myself busy?
Also, you owe me a lunch date. I want to hear all about this lab you're working in.
[That's all you get right now Tranquility.]
[ooc: As always spoilers for The Amazing Spider Man abound.]

[ if she had her way, this would be his retirement, thankyouverymuch. but she can't just say that.]
They would be lucky to have you, though.
[perma-encrypted]
I understand there's a shortage of cops and guys with experience.
[perma-encrypted]
You might be the first NYPD cop on board, though.

I'm not- [How to explain. He drums his fingers on the desk.]
How are you?
Honestly. Gwendolyn. All day I've been reading stories about how this is a place that people do not want to get stuck or trapped and I find you here.
[Translation: He wants to be in a place where even if he's not directly involved in his daughter's life he can at least provide something for her. Protection, keeping an eye on things. Anything like that.]
When I was talking to someone about it and I mentioned you-they said they were sorry to see you here. How did you end up here in the first place?
no subject
no subject
I'm not saying you did. I just want to know if there's anybody I can talk to about it.
[He's dead. He's still trying to adjust to that. And the fact that his alive daughter and he have coincided..
His voice traps off and he taps his fingers on the surface, looking at his hands.]
Or if anybody has ever given an indication they might be behind it. Grabbing everyone. Not just you.
no subject
Nobody knows. I mean, really, nobody. Even the people that were here before they started taking us all on board, the two from the original crew. I know that there are people looking into the, um, the jump process? You know, the pods we woke up in. And there are people researching, collecting information and posting it for us to read on the devices, but I don't think anybody knows why.
The- [ she's scrolling through her comm now; ] -the two original crew members, their names are Ward, and Resnik. They are the... Captain and First Officer, respectively. I've never talked to them. And- And I'm not sure it's a very good idea to try without asking around first. I heard they're dangerous.
no subject
They're on a boat full of potential madman.]
...Has anybody given you problems? Or have they given anybody problems?
no subject
If you meant Ward and Resnik specifically... No, I've never even seen them on the Network. I've only heard- [ hn ] I heard somebody died. A few months ago, before I got here. An engineer, I think. And they believe that those two are to blame. But there's no way to prove it.
no subject
I mean. [And this is so awkward.] ...Now that I'm here. Not interfering but. Here.
[How do you honestly handle coming back from the dead? Especially after your daughter mourned you.]

[This whole exercise was simply because he did not know-he was browsing the network, he saw Gwen's post-read information. 2012? Kid named Peter?
This might all be for nothing.
If it is for nothing and the boy's just that-a boy-he's hanging up his badge for good but he had to know and he has never been a man to just ask. Stubborn maybe but he's not some doting father or Jim Gordon figure to pass no judgement.
This was not Batman. He was far too close for any sort of comfort.]

[ He is really. Maybe, Captain Stacey's playing on cop's instinct but Peter doesn't know that. Text posts register numbers and not names so he isn't sure who this is entirely. It could be an enthusiast or heck, it could even be a friend of the guy he took a picture of. He isn't sure what to make of it. ]

[Good source of information. Instagram. Thank you Gwen stacy.]
Like my daughter. She has one.
[And now, a very small subtle prod]
no subject
You serious, Instagram?
[ Just. How could you. ]
No, sir. (Sir, I'm guessing anyway, sorry if you're a ma'am). but - it's taken with a Leica Sumerit and the equivalent of a nifty 50 lens. It's film, had it developed in the science labs and then uploaded to the network. It's pretty authentic.

...technology and I-not really pals. George Stacy.
and I'm sure it's beautiful in the long run. I thought that was what livejournal was for.
no subject
Same one from the NYPD?
[ he pales considerably. You're supposed to be dead. ]
no subject
...We're both adults.
[The moment he types that he regrets it. Just for a moment.]
...If I answer honestly will you answer a question honestly for me?
