I have enough bloody work without the deities addin' more stuff on top of it. What was all that meant t' be? I still 'aven't finished all the paperwork it made me do. Oh, an' y'might not think you 'ad t'come an' tell us when your stolen things got returned but that'd easily free up at least half of the form fillin' out. Could just write "found" at

How many forms have you got?

[justcautious]

Lots? I don't even know. I lost count. Piles of 'em, countin' the notes I 'ave t' turn into proper forms.

Want some help?

(ooc; I'm assuming here that Cameron and Beckett talked about Cameron taking over in case of Beckett's absence (Beckett-mun agreed to this), so Cameron'll be easing herself into the role until Beckett's post and only then making an IC statement about it.)

[justcautious]

Um....s'alright, ma'am. Dunno if it's your line o' work, exactly.

[ooc: Poor Cameron.]

[dude_imbatman]

I'll come in and help.

[Of course Dean's idea of helping is going to be 'it's a curse' shove everything in the trash can and light it on fire. God help Cameron. She'll need it]

[justcautious]

...you sure? S'dead boring.

[dude_imbatman]

Just curse related paper work isn't it?

[justcautious]

...prob'ly?

[manofgnee]

Woah, Chris. Chill. Breathe, lots of big deep breaths.

If a lot of this is curse related paperwork, well...can't you just get rid of it?

[justcautious]

Well...no. Cos some bloke might've stolen sommat for real, only pretendin' 'e was cursed, like. I can get rid of it if the thing got returned but I can't otherwise.

[manofgnee]

...oh.

...how long have you been at it?

[justcautious]

Since the curse started. Okay, well, not in one go. I ate an' slept. But mostly it's all I'm doin'. Paperwork's the worst part of bein' a copper. [Especially when you're working under Sam "Accountability and Procedure" Tyler and he makes you actually DO all of it.]

[justcautious]

S'awful. There's one like it every so often and we're understaffed as is without massive crime waves, yeah?

[justcautious]

Me, apparently. Maybe petty theft, but when it's bigger sorts of things, Intel gets properly involved. S'just the big stuff, this.

[bladed_siberian]

Maybe we should just put something out over the network asking if anyone didn't get their crap back. Then we can just redo the paperwork.

[justcautious]

..............din't think of that.
