[BACKDATED TO DURING/RIGHT AFTER SEXBY'S KILLING SPREE.]
 
[Arthur's breathing sounds short and pained, thanks to some broken ribs he's now sporting.  Due to the timing of all of this, he's totally missed out on all warden posts about Sexby's rampage, and thus has no idea there's anything going on.  WHOOPS.]
 
I need a hand.  Or. [Cough.] Two hands.  I don't care.  Someone come to level eight, room 19 and help me drag my inmate to the infirmary. Just a warning: he's really heavy.
 
...
 
And a doctor might-- [Short gasp.  STOP MOVING, ARTHUR.  He sounds a little irritated when he continues:] Might need to get some sutures ready.
 
[OOC: THIS IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWS THE SPAM IN ARTHUR'S LAST POST.  He and Perry beat each other up.  Like manly men.]

Still. How many ribs did you break? [Because lol he recognizes what that breathing pattern means.]

[Private]

[paradoxlol]

[DAMN YOUR ATTENTION TO DETAIL, DICK.]

One, maybe two. I can't tell for sure yet.

[Private]

[batmanschmatman]

[NEXT TIME HE BREAKS SOME, YOU CAN CALL HIM OUT ON IT.]

If you need anything, let me know. This might not come as a shock, but I'm pretty familiar with that kind of injury.

[Private]

[paradoxlol]

[~IT'S A DEAL~]

Thanks. I'll be fine if I just take it easy for a few weeks. [Pause, then he adds, amused:] I'm not used to having my injuries stick around.

[Private]

[batmanschmatman]

You're better off with them not. Taking it easy sucks.

[Private]

[paradoxlol]

Especially on the Barge.

[Private]

[batmanschmatman]

I'd say don't make a habit out of it, but I'm pretty sure that would make me a hypocrite.

[Private]

[paradoxlol]

A pretty egregious one, at that.

[Pauuuuse.]

Sorry to hear about Costigan, by the way.

[Private]

[batmanschmatman]

Thanks. I'm... really going to miss him.

[Private]

[paradoxlol]

He was a good guy. You did right by him. [After a beat:] I don't think he's dead.

[Private]

[batmanschmatman]

What makes you say that?

[Private]

[paradoxlol]

He took care of people. He helped them. [And by "people" he means "Mal."] He was a better person than a lot of the wardens here. You take an inmate that far, and I don't think even the Admiral would throw them out like they were nothing.

I think he just didn't need the Barge anymore.

[Private]

[batmanschmatman]

[That... actually gets a surprised half smile out of him. Not that you can see it, but.] Yeah. I really hope you're right, about the Admiral I mean. Honestly, sometimes I didn't even know why he was here.

[And, trying to joke:] He could have at least said goodbye.

[Private]

[paradoxlol]

[ATTEMPTED JOKES ARE A GOOD SIGN.] Goodbyes are probably too mushy for him.

[Private]

[batmanschmatman]

Probably.

Thanks, Arthur.

[Private]

[paradoxlol]

No problem.

[Private]

[batmanschmatman]

Seriously, if you need anything, you know where to find me.
