That council business rubs me the wrong way too but so does the idea of full disclosure. I don't hide but I don't feel I have to. People making bloody lists with supers and such sounds like a bad deal to me. Too much can go wrong with a thing like it.
[ And that isn't his rage against the system punk roots talking either. That's just history. ]
Beat him over the head with something, at least. [ Someone needs to. Preferably not him. He isn't exactly the best on moral standings for the most part. He does what he has to, sometimes people don't like that. They aren't willing to make tough calls. ]
It's not far down, you shouldn't have to worry too much. I'll be there if you need, though.
Oh... sorry, I didn't mean it... like that. [She hadn't meant to bring up any sort of... well, she should have thought it through before she opened her mouth, dumb bunny did it again.] Sorry.
Well, if he ever gives you trouble, you can always call me, I'll come take care of it.
[Because between Maul and Usagi, they both know she can and could beat him and just... doesn't.]
I can literally trip over my own feet. It doesn't have to be far down. But I've got a thick skull, so there's that.
No worries, love. Easy thing to misinterpret. Still a thing we should all be careful with, I think.
[ Little shake of his head. ] Shouldn't have to be you and that other bloke wandering around cleaning up his messes all the time. This whole curse business is in part to force him to be accountable for his own bloody actions.
Maybe you and Obi-Wan can afford to take some time off from that one after this simmers down a bit.
[ John's still clearing up when he hears the door upstairs chingle with the happy little bell that is somehow still attached to the door Maul ripped off the hinges. Bastard. As if there wasn't enough to clear up around her from the town all on its own. ]
Usagi? If that's you, you're going to come to the end of the railing up there. Just follow my voice, you'll see the climbing rope to get down.
Obi-Wan-san really does deserve a break from... everything.
[When Usagi does arrive, she bites her lip and looks at the rope. Oh gosh, oh no, this is going to require so much more coordination.
She grabs the rope and is shaking as she manages about a whole foot down before she got tangled up and was suddenly swinging about. She 'eep'ed and was about to bawl for help.]
WHY IS THIS YOUR WAY TO GET DOWN HERE?! [She whimpered.]
So I've noticed. Seems this place isn't his first time dealing with that one on the regular.
[ Were John nearby he would've assured her it wasn't so bad. John's not the super adventurous sort in the outdoors arena but he's had to get into a number of dodgy places to do his job over the years.
When he doesn't hear her immediately, concern takes over and he heads for the entrance only to end up squawked at. ]
Usagi, love. How'd you manage this? Hold on, here---[ He reaches out to help lift her a little more vertical by the shoulders, letting her lean against him from where she's at. ]---because the stairs aren't safe thanks to that drop earlier in the month. Haven't been able to fix it yet.
Can you reach the rope from where you are to untangle yourself?
I. Don't. Know! [She whines. Honestly, these things just sort of tend to happen to Usagi.
She swallows and looks to see if she can get the rope John mentioned. She's scared to let go but manages to do so getting a good portion of her hair and her other arm free from the tangled rope.]
[With some more whimpering and a little bit of patience, she DOES eventually get down and out of the way. She's shaking as she looks at the rope. She'd rather reveal her transformation and just FLY up than do that again.]

I don't wanna fall!

Take a breath, all right? I'm not letting go and you aren't going to fall. I've got you.
[ Besides if she falls right now she's liable to be cushioned by falling on top of him. ]
no subject
You do that every time?
