Current
A Perpetual Motion Engine of Anxiety and Self-Loathing
Bio
So there I am, in Sri Lanka, formerly Ceylon, at about 3 o'clock in the morning, looking for one thousand brown M&Ms to fill a brandy glass, or Ozzy wouldn't go on stage that night. So, Jeff Beck pops his head 'round the door, and mentions there's a little sweets shop on the edge of town. So - we go. And - it's closed. So there's me, and Keith Moon, and David Crosby, breaking into that little sweets shop, eh. Well, instead of a guard dog, they've got this bloody great big Bengal tiger. I managed to take out the tiger with a can of mace, but the shopowner and his son... that's a different story altogether. I had to beat them to death with their own shoes. Nasty business, really. But, sure enough, I got the M&Ms, and Ozzy went on stage and did a great show.
Been sick for a bit. About 90% sure it's just the standard cold and sniffles you get when you have a newborn picking up every disease in the vicinity and growing it like an incubator... but I had a Covid-19 test today anyway, since Doctors demand it as a precaution. The likelihood of my getting that here in South Australia is slim to none though...
But, yeah. Hopefully I can find some time around caring for said sick newborn to get the Montoya/Driver post done and collab stuff for @Hillan and @Lord Wraith

M I S C E L L A N E O U S ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔ ► Former partner of Charlie Fields, who was brutally murdered by the Firebug, after a routine doorknock to follow up a tip went awry. ► Driver remains on good terms with his late partner's widow, Nora Fields, who works at the coroner's office. ► Very quietly involved in a relationship with a fellow co-worker in the Major Crimes Unit, Detective Romy Chandler. -
In the Gotham City criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: The Batman, who beats criminals into unconsciousness and stuffs them in a mental asylum, and the police, who investigate crimes.
These are their stories. Bumm-bumm!
The Major Crimes Unit, a hand-picked group of clean detectives selected by Jim Gordon who handle the crimes the other cops call "the Freak Beat", operate out of Gotham Central.
In the last year both Renee Montoya and the final officer selected by Gordon, Marcus Driver, have both lost their partners in the line of duty. For Montoya, Crispus Allen would be the second partner she's lost in the last 12 months - with Harvey Bullock, the grey line between "old school" and dirty - suspended indefinitely after a very public case dragged his past actions into the spotlight. As whispers around the lockerroom start to pose questions regarding whether she can hack it anymore, her private life (she was recently outed as gay by an unknown stalker figure) and what kind of police she is, Captain Rob Probson has paired up the two in order to stop hemorrhaging morale by allowing them be anyone else's problem.
Everything reminds Marcus Driver of his late partner Charlie Fields, and the night which saw Firebug take his life from a random doorknock. He's since thrown himself back into his work with many questioning whether he's really ready to return. But where's the line between a hungry police, and a man with a death wish?

Plots pending. I would like to discuss characters the various Bat-family members would like to introduce before locking myself (and them) into any hard future plots. But as GCPD I think they make good establishing characters for introducing the next big antagonists and introing plots they may like to pursue.

I have something I want to work on App wise but I'm going to sit on it as I don't have the time. How does everything think this is going? I know the pace has slowed but I think we're at quite a healthy place right now.
I feel fine with the pace from people in general, and my own 0ace should pick up now as I go back to work.
So there I am, in Sri Lanka, formerly Ceylon, at about 3 o'clock in the morning, looking for one thousand brown M&Ms to fill a brandy glass, or Ozzy wouldn't go on stage that night. So, Jeff Beck pops his head 'round the door, and mentions there's a little sweets shop on the edge of town. So - we go. And - it's closed. So there's me, and Keith Moon, and David Crosby, breaking into that little sweets shop, eh. Well, instead of a guard dog, they've got this bloody great big Bengal tiger. I managed to take out the tiger with a can of mace, but the shopowner and his son... that's a different story altogether. I had to beat them to death with their own shoes. Nasty business, really. But, sure enough, I got the M&Ms, and Ozzy went on stage and did a great show.
