Trooper Station: Wednesday

[fracknotfrak.livejournal.com]

It was your typical day at the Trooper Station. Or you know, typical when everything starts going crazy in town. Because that's when the phones start ringing from numerous people on the island to complain.

Unfortunately for Vic, she wasn't able to avoid phone duty today.

"Yes. Thank you for informing me about the evil fog surrounding the island," she said in bored flat tones. "I hadn't heard about it at all. Or notice it walking to the office this morning. Yes, we know Leland Gaunt is evil and the teal deer are getting rabid. What should you do? Stay indoors until it gets taken care of. Yes. I'll be happy to file your complaint."

She hung up quickly without bothering to take down any information only for the phone to start ringing immediately.

She sighed and picked up the phone to start the whole process over again.

It was going to be a long day.

Jessica was just stopping in to do some paperwork. You know, arrest warrants, things like that before she went out.

Of course, she was still new here. "Do you know where we keep warrants?" Jessica checked. "I'm gonna make a play for Leland Gaunt, but I want to go by the book." She realized that it was entirely possible that Fandom had never used a warrant before.

"I think it's in the same file cabinet where we keep the coffee filters," Vic said holding her hand over the phones. "Next to the coffee machine, bottom drawer. There's one on top for a mirror just in case the one that bothers the hat guy comes back and annoys him. Just grab the blank ones behind it."

"Are the coffee filters sorted by date?" Jessica wondered aloud as she started going through the drawer. In a few seconds, she pulled out a few blank warrants. That should be enough to make the point she wanted to.

"I don't know," Vic said shaking her head. "Some guy named Cooper who used to work here a while ago had a thing about coffee. I think the organized filters was his thing."

She looked at the phone she was holding, shrugged and put it down on the desk so the NPCitizen could keep blabbing on about the fog.

"So the Leland guy is some kind of magical d-bag, right? Do you think a warrant going to make him give up quietly?" she asked while taking a gulp of coffee. "Or are we going to have to get some kind of wizard on the payroll? Like that Barry Plodder guy."

"If we can get one, that would solve a lot of problems," Jessica said. She took a seat at her desk and started filling the warrants out. "I have a multi-step plan. First I get all official and give the warrants as peacefully as possible. He probably won't answer and probably sends brainwashed people after me and force me to punch them. But at least I tried before having to hit people. After that, try to get into the store and see what happens."

"Who has to sign these things anyway? We don't have any judges here or anything."

"You can try and get the mayor to sign it," Vic suggested with a shrug. Or someone in her office. It's not like there's a lot of due process around here."

"I'll just sign it for now and let whatever due process there is sort it out," Jessica said. "It's not like he's going to pay attention to it anyway."
