[Arthur's new and improved communicator is sitting in his cabin ~~after his old one got destroyed by a tornado in the CES~~, taking a nice shot of his... door. There's no Arthur in sight. This plays for about a minute, then there's a thud and Arthur swings the door open. He's looking... like he just survived a zombie apocalypse. His clothes are torn and muddy, his hair's a mess, his legs are soaked up to his knees, and he's got cuts, scratches and bruises all over. He's even got a few manly cuts on his face. He storms into his cabin and kicks the door shut behind him. He pulls off the remains of his shirt and throws it aside, then notices his new communicator. Stalking over to it, he leans down close to address the audience.]

I hate this goddamn ship.

[END TRANSMISSION.]

[Private to Perry]
[And then a minute later, it clicks on again.]

Did you get hurt?

[Filtered to Capa, Ariadne, Dick, AND OTHER FRIENDS IF I FORGOT ANY]
You okay?

[OOC: ARTHUR HAD A GRAND OLD ADVENTURE. Laugh at him. Oh, and spam's welcome, too.]

[Someone is probably in a similar state, as he was being dragged around the CES unconscious.]

Me too, Sport. Me too.

I didn't see you out there. What happened?

I figured out where the fuck the douchebag was, made it to Narvin's room to get his help and organize some people, next thing I know I'm in the damned CES and everything is all over with.

Damn it.

I would've loved to get my hands on him.

Woulda been nice, but as long as it's over. There's nothing as fucking frustrating as being jerked around for a month.

You gonna be alright?

Yes.

[Pause. He sounds very...dazed.]

I might need help.

[Another pause.]

If you have a minute.

[Longer pause.]

Or four.

Where are you?

I d- oh, yes I do. My cabin. The door's unlocked.

[Arthur hasn't even had a chance to change clothes yet, so he just busts into Capa's room shirtless and filthy, enjoy that.]

Capa. Hey. [He rushes over to him.] What the hell happened?

[He might enjoy it more if he could decide which one he wanted to focus on. Instead, he just looks up from where he's sitting on the floor, his clothes and hair coated in blood. Some of it isn't his. Most of it is. He's got a long, deep gash on his arm, but everything else, aside from the blood in his hair, seems superficial.]

We went to the bridge. No. Fought our way there. Through fucking...illogical and absolutely unscientifically plotted-out corridors. [He put a hand on the bed and pushed himself up.] That asshole was there and we forced him out. And then waited for the Admiral.

And then he kicked us out here.

[Dick looks exhausted, and there's a cut on his cheek, and he might be wearing something that looks a little like fancy body armor because lol he has not had time to change. BUT he manages a smile because lol he thought you were dead for a while there buddy. :|]

I think I should be asking you the same question.

[Luckily, Arthur's too classy to comment on your costume, bro. He looks relieved to see that Dick's not maimed or badly injured.]

I'm fine. Just had to fight off mother nature for a few days.

[The only one who's even really acknowledged it was John when he first changed so. Guess no one really cares one way or another. c:]

I'm just glad you're alive. I was a little concerned when no one knew where you were.

Yeah, a tornado took my communicator, if you can believe it. I had no idea who was alive or what was going on.

I can try and fill you in on the details, if you want.

Not much. [This isn't video though, or else Arthur would be able to see the cuts around his eyes and the bruising, scrapes and scratches everywhere else. He sounds tired as hell.]

Not much? What'd you get up to while I was out?

[He's... kind of feeling a bit awkward about telling Arthur that he was actually good and tried to help people out. So instead:] I didn't make a deal with that sonofabitch like some people did.

Smart move. Something tells me he wouldn't have followed through.

What tipped you off?

I'm all right, thank god. Had a few close calls, though. [She looks a bit tired and beat up as well - a scratch on her cheek and a bruise on her collar bone.]

Where were you? I was worried.

Edited 2011-11-02 07:18 (UTC)

What happened?

[Arthur runs a hand through his hair to push it back.] I was in the CES. My communicator got wrecked, so I couldn't contact anyone. I haven't even had a chance to check out what I missed yet.

We had to find the Admiral.

How badly are you hurt? You should go to the infirmary.

Looks like you found trouble along the way.

Just some scrapes and bruises. I'll be fine.

Some. Those things got pretty violent towards the end, but we stayed in groups. And the Admiral was pretty scared.

What about your ribs? [They are still broken! She is concerned!]
