Memo 005: Pods

[prpl_assistant]

(After her conversations with Miss Ethelbert and the Captain, as well as her observations around town and the neighborhood, Miss Pauling quickly hurries back home and heads straight for the phone.)

Phone (filtered to the TF2 crew only)
Miss Pauling speaking here. This is urgent, are any of you around?

Action: around town with the BLU Medic
(It's not very often that you'll find the two of them together. But for today, it seems that Miss Pauling and the BLU Medic seem to be searching for something, or maybe even someone. With the Medic's track record though, it's probably one of the semi-droned people around Mayfield. Approach them at your own risk, especially if you've been podded.)

Action: Later, around town.
(She's heard that the RED Engineer isn't acting himself. That's good enough reason for her to start looking at those mysterious pods that have popped up all over town. She's about to rip one apart at this very moment. Did she rescue someone? Was it you? Or maybe you're just watching her, and you want to help her out?)

[Lithuania sidesteps with the practice of someone who's been fighting for a very long time, backing up a little, still smirking.]

I'm not fodder like a drone would be, you know.

[prpl_assistant]

(So Mr Lithuania COULD fight after all. Medic might have gotten more than he bargained for with this fight...)

[Oh, that's just fine. Medic's expression goes a bit manic; he hasn't had a good fight in ages.]

Oh, I knew you vhere not a drone! Zhat is vhy I need you, you know.

[If it's going to be mostly dodging, then Medic will have to treat him like a Scout: get his back to a wall and remove the agility. There's a suitable alleyway nearby... he makes another rush forward, the attack more calculated and cautious, but also a bit herding. Patience is a virtue among men of science.]

Isn't the whole "twisted German doctor" thing a bit cliche?

[Lithuania sidesteps this time, and then draws his sword. He can't just let the man push him around, after all.]

[prpl_assistant]

(OK, so he's got a sword. She's on high alert now. Depending on the next move, she may start shooting him.)

[gotyourbones.livejournal.com]

Zhat is hardly my fault, ja?

[Another slash, in a high arc; he does have one free hand, and a block should open Lithuania up to be grabbed by the throat.]

[vytis]

[Lithuania blocks accordingly, and when the hand closes around his throat he aims a hard kick to the stomach with more strength than a human could draw up.]

[prpl_assistant]

(OK, enough is enough.

Aiming from the shadows, she shoots Mr.Lithuania in the leg. They're going to need him as untouched as possible if only to properly examine him.)
