Red Fish Mingle

[mortalcoil]

Who: The crew and (many) visitors of the Red Fish!
Broadcast: Nope
Action: Aboard the SS Red Fish
When: Nebulously after the Great Winter Soldier Violence Spree of '16

[it was bound to happen sometime. all three captains of the SS Red Fish are hauled back home in various stages of medical distress, and things have been a little weird since then.

one of these things is the super soldier with the busted metal arm that is brought in to be kept locked up in Coil's lab for a while. turns out those restraints he'd had installed did come in handy. that's a thing.

so, whether you're here to check on one of the various ailing people here, gawk at the guy chained up in the dungeon lab, or are just trying to live your life in relative peace and sanity, come on in!]

[ His gaze flicks briefly to Sam, then over to Coil. His eyes don't rest on one person for long. There are too many bodies in the lab, and he's unsure where he stands with any of them, especially after his rampage.

Winter frowns, recognizing the gesture. Broken. If there was any sort of hope of him thinking that he wasn't, before, it's gone now. Other people have noticed, too. ]

Short of elimination, this was the best option.

[ Not exactly answering the question, but he's resigned himself to it. He's fine with it. Even if waking up and being restrained unsettles him quite a bit. He can tolerate it so long as he knows he can't hurt anyone this way. ]

There's a lot to talk about.

[It's said patiently; not condescending, but as a matter of fact. This is no easy situation, he can tell. And they're not gonna be happy with it, no matter the outcome.

He's not as emotionally driven as Sye in this — well, not on the outside. But while he's learned how to stow a lot away, he's also by that token used a lot of his life to do things like see Coil's side of the coin. Even if he's been a victim of this very thing himself. He nods instead, glancing between Winter and Coil, finally landing on Winter with a sympathetic look.]

So it's a safety net. A way to try to minimize the damage, if there's any left to cause.

I get it.

[He does. He really does.]

... You're wrong on one thing, Coil. We're all capable of being weapons in this place, so restraint... won't stop the next person they screw with. This isn't really much of a solution unless he's still glitched.
