Sodding hell. I'm not much of one for the TV, but even I don't live under a rock. The city's gone bonkers, it appears and to put it far more kindly than I'm wont to do, Pro-Human sentiment amongst it's citizenry seems at an all time, somewhat violent high. Now, I'm a pessimist by nature, so, take this with a grain of salt if you must, but I'd suggest the Non-Human folk of the Academy take the time to arm themselves with something stronger than goodwill and a desire to talk out their differences. And if you can't afford a tazer or a gun or a bloody great knife, and if you aren't amongst those able to shoot fire from your eyes or lightning from your arse, I could be convinced to show you a few moves to help you in an unarmed or melee fight. I cannot teach you how to be bullet proof. I cannot teach you how to make sense of this kind of disgrace. I CAN teach you how to ensure anyone giving you guff spends the next week exhuming their teeth from the lavatory.

Anyone interested, drop me a private note. I don't often offer my services like this but... desperate times and all that.

I know you can handle yourself, but I've obviously got my own reservations. If anyone gives you a hard time, please do not be gentle about teaching them the error of their ways. I know it will get us both in a spot of hot water, but frankly my dear I don't give a damn.

It is a concern. Mob mentality is always dangerous, but I hope it won't come to that.

From what I've seen, it's already come to that. Attacks on non-human folk are going up and then of course retaliation sets in and Humans are winding up in hospital. Seems this sort of thing can't be escaped no matter how handily it gets masked day to day.

... I'll keep an eye out, too.

Be careful. So far it's not happened that I've heard of, but folk might take a shine to ganging up on 'sympathisers'. I know you're a wonderfully capable fighter - one of the best, and I don't dish out praise like that willy-nilly. But if enough lads take it into their heads you need to get your kidneys kicked in for fraternizing with the 'beasts', you might wind up worse for wear.

I'm always careful, love. Thanks for the worry. The same goes for you, too. Don't think I don't see all that talk about "giving them a target". You're a noble one Talbain, just don't let it get the better of you.

If you find yourself in a pickle, I'm a phone call away. Remember that.

[whirlwind_wolfman]

Ah. You spotted that, eh? Hardly noble, Miss White. It's just been ever so long since I was chased about by a large, murderously unruly mob, and I've hit a point in my old age where nostalgia brings me happiness. Entirely selfish of me, I assure you.

Same goes for you, of course. I've always got your back if you've need of me.

[cannonspike]

Of course. I've got your number.
