[In spite of his reluctance to say anything after a particularly stabby incident, Murphy has other concerns that more or less supersedes his own well-being at the moment:]

"Wasn't gonna say anything 'bout this -- especially not on here, but... I feel like it needs to be brought up again in case if it wasn't already obvious.

"I think it goes without sayin' that this isn't some kinda five-night Space Academy. You just... You ever know what you might run into, whether you're doin' your job or just grabbing something from the kitchen, or somethin' else goes down... Not tryin' to scare anybody with this, I'm just gonna put that out there.

"Nng... I'm not... one for fancy speeches, but I just wanted to say, uh... it's a big ship we live on. Shit can happen. A lot of us have been on board for awhile, and... yeah, I'm no head doctor, but I do know that the conditions we're stuck in can do a lot to a person's mental health."

[None of this is news to Murphy, and it feels like he's wasting his breath on it now. He sighs. Though he's kept the audio on for a reason, he makes a pained grunt, trying to compose himself before he continues:]

"Guess what I'm tryin' to say is... exercise some caution while you're here. Otherwise, you're probably gonna learn it the hard way." [Much like yours truly here.]

[redhotsummers]

Some of us like acting like fucking idiots, so excuse you, Murph.

[There is a little amusement in his tone. Come on, Murphy. Can't be sour all the time.]

voice;

[yardbird]

I think I can occasionally see the appeal.

[Some amusement as well, and then-- Ow.

[Yeah, he's going to be feeling that phantom knife in him for awhile.]

voice;

[redhotsummers]

...what happened?

[Sorry, he has to ask. Cause it's always something.]

voice;

[handelaar]

Not givin' you weed again.

[Spoken with an undertone of the fuck did you do, Murfie. But he's not about to ask over the network.]

voice;

[yardbird]

Well, I... I wasn't gonna ask.

[Totally ignoring that undertone for now.]

voice;

[handelaar]

I'd sell it.

[Spoken off-hand; he doesnt think Murphy would bother. But the second thing... yeah too bad he's not letting that go.]

Where are ya.

voice;

[justamobster]

You all right there, pal?

[ Hello lighter buddy. I mean ahem. Never heard your voice before in my life. Yep. ]

voice;

[yardbird]

Terrific.

[Doesn't sound like it, but he isn't about to go and complain about it. Not like he's never been knifed before.]

voice;

[justamobster]

And you're spillin' this word of warnin' after gettin' checked out at the medbay, yeah? [ You never know with these silly space people... ]

[audio] (Okay to handwave that York was there?)

[logicunlocked]

Looks like you got all patched up. You recovering okay?

[audio] sure! i'm also open to backtagging in that log, too. trying to get that scene going, durr

[yardbird]

Sure, good as new... kinda.

...More so after the jump, most likely. [Not sure if it's the blue goop or the fact that everyone's in a static state for a month during said jumps that does it, though. Eh, not his area of expertise, either.]

[audio] handwaving's easier lol. He'd just step in and help and then leave

[logicunlocked]

Oh, yeah? What happens after the jump?

voice

[walksonrooftops]

Did something happen?

[Not like he hasn't been told to be careful before by plenty of different people. What he's curious about is what prompted Murphy to voice his concerns too.]

voice

[yardbird]

Nng, yeah, somethin'... I'm alright, though.

[He's had worse days.]

voice

[walksonrooftops]

[If he's learned to doubt anything on this ship, it's "I'm alright".]

You're not hurt, are you?

[voice]

[falsehoods]

You sound unwell.

[voice]

[yardbird]

It's nothin' I'm not gonna get over.

[Because stab wounds are totally something you "get over".]

voice;

[sangfroid]

Are you all right, Signore Murphy?

[ Do you need me to come over there and help finish you off? ]

voice;

[yardbird]

[asdf NO THANK YOU. 8( ]

Y... Yeah, I'm fine. [Though he wasn't so much a week ago, he's gotten better now.]

voice;

[bring_em_down]

So now people are getting attacked when they go to get a sandwich?

voice;

[yardbird]

I... maybe?



Like I told others -- it was an accident.

[LB reads over all of the previous conversations, before she responds, so that A) She doesn't wind up asking the same question twice and B) She's still used to creeping on people and knowing their business.]

Accident in the kitchen? Eeheehee? Did you have a run-in with a blender or was it a somebody else who caused it?

audio

[yardbird]

A... somebody. Though a blender accident probably would've been way more catastrophic...

[He tries to force a light lift in his tone there. Laughing is too much effort right now.]

[jilt]

Personal safety isn't your forte, is it?

[yardbird]

How'd you guess?
