002 | Kobra Kid | [Video]

[goodluckkobra]

[Kobra's panting hard and wincing down at the little communicator.]

Can anyone who knows how to give stitches come to the church? I can't do it myself on account of it being my arm and also I don't have the supplies. I would kinda prefer one of the pretty doctors, if that's cool.

[He grins, but it's not totally there.]

Turns out I am not a dog person after all.

[Anyone who values their lives will ignore the fact that her mascara appears to be running]

What happened. Did you get bit? How bad is it?!

[goodluckkobra]

[He's not gonna mention it, but he's not gonna ignore it, either.]

'M okay, Lyds. 'S just my arm. I got my bandanna around it for now. Probably need a few stitches, though. It's kinda deep. Those things have some fuckin' claws on them. You guys stay inside and I'll get home when I can.

[preytosociety]

If you mean that filthy bandanna you brought with you when you got here, I'm going to-- [Public feed. Daneel could see this. The next part is spoken through clenched teeth.] ... Wash it for you angrily.

[A scratch wasn't going to do anything. It had to be a bite, right? Come on, Lydia, be rational. They're just regular wolves. Regular, extinct wolves. Just ignore the fact that this is your greatest fear come to life and your idiot friend is hurt and not at home and--]

Okay. Okay, just... promise. Get a doctor, get it looked at, and promise me you'll be back.

[goodluckkobra]

Does angry washing get the blood out faster?

[He's trying to keep it light here, Lydia. He'll keep it together for the both of them. He leans back stiffly against the stone wall.]

I promise I'll be back. The church is pretty sturdy. I'm okay. It just hurts is all.

[Somehow, Sharon isn't surprised that the kid needs stitches.]

Have you gotten help yet? If not, I can be there shortly.

[goodluckkobra]

How are you supposed to help me? You're my nemesis.

[What a strange turn of events!]

[agentx13.livejournal.com]

I'm your what?

[Shit. She hadn't even noticed any drug trafficking. How had he gotten his hands on- Or was he like this when he was drunk? He has to be on something.]

Never mind. I can help. Are you safe at the Church?

[goodluckkobra]

[Whoops.]

Nothing. Nothing, but I'm okay. I don't think those things can get in. God will protect me, right?

[Wow, did he actually get that out with a straight face?]

[thezerothlaw]

Kobra?

[This is everything he was afraid of when he first saw the wolves, and that it's Kobra makes it so much worse. Harm to a human is a terrible thing; harm to a friend makes it near unbearable. He's almost reeling. Can he do stitches, if he had to? He isn't even sure; it's an antique treatment and without a local anesthetic it would probably be harder on him than Kobra. Maybe it won't be necessary for him to do that, but he's also completely incapable of doing nothing. What if no qualified doctor makes an appearance?]

I'm coming to you.

[goodluckkobra]

No! Dan, I'm not in danger any more. I'm inside and I'm safe and it's really not so bad. I'll be fine. I want you to stay safe, too. Please?

[He's going to feel like epic shit if Dan gets hurt because of him.]

Stay with Lydia, okay? She needs you more.

[thezerothlaw]

[That's an order, whatever Kobra and Lydia might say about not taking orders from them, and it has a certain weight, but the First Law always outweighs the Second. Daneel hesitates, briefly and anxiously, while the potentials war in his mind.]

That's not correct, Kobra. Lydia is safe. At present she does not need me more. You're not safe. You're injured. If I can help in any way then I must do what I can.

[goodluckkobra]

God damn it! [He leans his head back against the stone wall.]

Be careful. You have to be careful. It's not life-threatening or anything. I promise. It's just a scratch. It's not worth you getting hurt over.

[onteamdyson]

Dude, seriously? Did you just legit get got? Remind me to get you a cat...

Anyone come to rescue you, yet? Because I can't go be heroic on my own.

[goodluckkobra]

Daneel is coming and he's the best hero ever after you and me.

By the way, we are gonna be like Charlie's Angels and our Charlie is Sharkpocalypse. [Changing the subject is good. He doesn't want Kenzi getting hurt for him, either.]

[onteamdyson]

Sweeeet. Robot rescue! We gotta put this in the scrapbook. [A pause...] We also might have to make a scrapbook.

[Dammit, KK, it's not like she would have gone after you herself. She would have sent Clint!]

Okay, Charlie's Angels, we can totes do that. You're the blonde, I'm rocking the dark hair, who's our redhead? [Is that a sly raise of her eyebrow? Why, it most certainly is. Could she possible knooooow something? About a certain scary guy with red hair? Probably!]

[goodluckkobra]

I don't know. I tried to get V to join, but Sharkpocalypse is strictly a Charlie.

[He laughs.]

Are you sure I can pull off Farrah Fawcett?

[gloryisbullshit.livejournal.com]

Now, see: there's stupid, and then there's stupid.

[goodluckkobra]

Yeah, you didn't raise me too good, huh?

[gloryisbullshit.livejournal.com]

They said I coddled you. I see now they were so, so right.

Droid's on the way?

[porcelainpride]

....if that's a joke, it isn't funny.

[goodluckkobra]

[Shit.]

I'm okay, Kurt. Don't worry 'bout me. It sucks, but it's really minor. Just stay inside, okay?

[porcelainpride]

You said you needed help. I'm not entirely useless.

[notrosesshadow]

Has someone stitched you up yet or are you still in need of those. [Never mind that she has to actually venture outside to get to him. She'll figure that out when the information matters.]

[goodluckkobra]

No stitches. I'm back at my house and it's cleaned and bandaged. Do you think you can take a look at it, though? [He'd promised Daneel that he'd have a doctor look at it.] If you think you can get here safely, I mean.

[notrosesshadow]

[Martha had tried, but within seconds found the wolves to be more than a little difficult to evade and had therefore reentered her house.]

Right, that's not going to work. Cleaned and bandaged is good. When it's time for you to change bandages, I want you to call me so I can take a look at it OK? Through the screen. Not as good a solution, but I can't take on those wolves.
