[ The police officer's voice, which hasn't been heard on the network in a while, is impossibly dry, throaty and low with an out-of-character lassitude ]
It is remarkable what household implements people are capable of converting into deadly weapons, given sufficient motivation.
[ In other words, guess who had to go break up a blossom-fueled domestic spat and ended up caught in the crossfire? Any police officers at the precinct would have probably seen him signing off with an enormous piece of gauze taped to the side of his forehead and mildly disoriented, but (aside from a slight tendency to list to the left when walking) apparently fine. ]
A question, Siren's Port, if you would be kind enough to indulge it: what weapons do you favor? I had not even seen a gun before I arrived in this city, and I find those who carry blades like my own to be few and far between. I have learned, as well-- [ And there just might be the edge of a sharper, darker amusement there. ] -- that there are those who have no deadlier armament than their own body.
If you would prefer not to reveal your proficiency or lack thereof, you may feel free to omit that information. [ He makes a vague, dismissive noise. ] Still, I would like to hear of the countless means of causing harm which other worlds have managed to invent-- if only so I may have an inkling of how to counter them.
