[A familiar cowboy hat comes into view on this feed, followed by a familiar figure, that of the rugged Jake Marshall with a stupidly broad grin on his face; even at the angle he's propped the NV up, with his feet on his table, it's obvious he's happy about something.] You folks wanna know somethin'? [He tips his hat up with two fingers, swirling

[ Background? Police station. Guess who is your new engineer, and is now surrounded by bits and pieces of weapons and equipment. ]

Looks like we'll be seeing you around the station.

I reckon so, hombre. [He's trying to act all cool, but Bruce has probably studied enough people to know that Jake, compared to his normal demeanor, is absolutely ecstatic from the fact he gets to be a detective again.] Y'got a name?

[kingofrooks]

[ Yep, he can tell. And he's pretty sure that if nothing else, the SPPD's got another asset to their name. ]

Bruce Wayne. No detective or Captain or anything, since I'm the resident engineer. [ Grins. ]

So. Detective Jake Marshall, yes?

[cactusnwhiskey]

You said Wayne as in, John Wayne? [Take it from a cowboy to make that comparison. :|] Well it's nice to make your acquaintance, Mister Wayne.

That's who I am, startin' at the crack a' dawn tomorrow. Detective Jacob Marshall. [He gives a relieved chuckle.] Been a long while since I heard that, t'be perfectly honest with you.

Wow! Congratulations sir!

[cactusnwhiskey]

[That's... that's... a talking cat.]

... er... much obliged, hombre.

[rhythminmysoul]

It must have taking a lot of work to become a detective.

[cactusnwhiskey]

'bout six years of schoolin', give or take. [Sorry, he's still really... surprised. You know, since you're a cat.]

[The realization that something is off with this young woman is almost instant. She's just too sweet, like Angel Starr when she's trying to get something out of a man; very polite and cutesy. Or like Damon Gant, seemingly innocent and kind and even generous at first glance. Those big doe eyes aren't going to fool this cowboy so easily. However, he keeps all these thoughts to himself, not showing any sign of his suspicion, as he gives her a polite tip of the hat.]

Thank ya kindly, ma'am. Sure is great to be back, that's for dang sure.

[Lookit that big smile, Jake]

Congrats! I guess this means we'll be seeing each other, Detective Marshall.

Yay :3

[cactusnwhiskey]

[That causes a big grin to erupt onto his face.]

Thank ya kindly. Sure seems like we'll be meetin' again on the ol' dusty trail.

[cactusnwhiskey]

Much obliged, Wright. I reckon this means I should be lookin' fer your blue suit the next crime scene I come to?

[He whips out his Bowie knife, and starts shaving his eternal stubble. This should be a familiar sight by now.]

[lawyerific]

Well you could, but I suggest rather than looking out for me, you spend your time looking out for the evidence.

[cactusnwhiskey]

Heh. Good one, Wright. But I can 'bout guarantee I'll be findin' it all 'fore you get there.
