SIX: video

[The feed comes on to show Taylor looking pretty annoyed, a sharp frown pinching her brows even as something a little more weary lingers in her eyes. Her tone, when she starts speaking, still comes out strong, more authoritative than might be remembered from her before. Her first real announcement as Head of Security, she's keeping her shoulders set and her gaze level.]

I was thinking that this was basic fucking common sense, but seeing as some of you seem to need someone to actually say this shit, I'm gonna lay it out for you.

You don't kill each other, you don't assault each other, you don't steal each other's belongings and you don't damage each other's belongings.

[A pause, making sure those sit clearly before she carries on.]

There is a security team here, we're active and we will take action to enforce these basic rules and rights if we see or are informed of them being broken. Each infraction will be dealt with individually, so don't ask me for a blanket 'what will you do if'. SEC's here to keep everyone safe, not to control your lives. Most of you know the kind of shit we've had to deal with here - if you don't, you should've read about it. It's bigger and it's nastier than this kind of sniping, so calm the fuck down and stop fucking with each other already.

[A moment, keeping the same hard expression before she seems to relax slightly, looking away at something off camera and then back again.]

Personal request: if there's anyone that can do tattooing or just art shit, drop me a message. [A slight motion of her shoulders, almost a shrug.] Been doing them myself, but I want these somewhere I can't get at. Can show you how to do it bare-bones, if you don't know.

Yeah? Ever been in prison?

[scamp]

More than once.

[It's... more like jail, but there isn't really a system set up for trials. Every prisoner just gets locked up until some guard decides to let them go.]

[puppydogeyes]

So me saying 'don't kill each other' is harder for you than all of that shit?

[She looks very disbelieving.]

[scamp]

No. [He actually sounds a bit offended.] Never killed anyone.

[puppydogeyes]

What's your problem, then?

[scamp]

Don't get why you need rules for smaller shit. Some security guy threatened me and this knob-end just because we were fightin'.

[puppydogeyes]

Fighting counts as assault. There are places you can spar safely, otherwise SEC is going to step in if we see it happening.

[scamp]

Even when nobody's fuckin' asking for help?

[puppydogeyes]

Yeah. We're not just gonna stand around and watch people get hurt.

[scamp]

Ain't that nice of you.

[puppydogeyes]

It's my job, smartass.

[scamp]

Who asked ya to have it?

[puppydogeyes]

Previous head.

[scamp]

Who asked them?

[puppydogeyes]

I don't know. You got a point with this? 'Cause if it's the bullshit third-grader 'who asked you' argument, you're wasting my time.

[scamp]

Back where I come from, you solve your own fucking problems. Don't expect me to follow rules for small shit 'cause some git I never heard of said so.

[puppydogeyes]

I don't. I expect you to follow the rules for small shit 'cause I said so, and 'cause me and my team will be enforcing them.
