[Nick's voice sounds pretty weary -- and also a bit distorted on certain syllables, as though something might not be entirely right with his vocal modulator. Or maybe he's just got a cold. Who knows with these robot types.]

Anyone still out there who needs a place to wait this out safely, come to the Guard headquarters or the Clinic. Doesn't matter which one -- they're right next to each other. And if you don't think you can make it here on your own, let me know. We'll find a way to get you here, even if it means an escort.

[Though given his voice, he might not be in the best condition to do any escorting himself, but like that has ever stopped him.]

Guard, do what you need to do to restrain those looking to cause trouble, even if they're one of us. Try not to add to the body count.

[With that, he cuts the transmission, since as one of the few who doesn't seem to be affected, he has work to do. Click.]

I'm still pretty new here, but if you guys need any extra help with escorting, I've got some experience.

[ and "try not to add to the body count" are basically his favourite words ever. ]

How are we supposed to be sure this isn't a trap?

I wouldn't be so quick to suggest that people gather together in one place. [Ignis is quick to say. He's on the bad end of all of this, himself, but he isn't too concerned about being murdered just yet. Let a man put his faith in his abilities to stay alive against insurmountable odds... especially after he recently cut his way through an entire army. Fear's 'blessing' is just another thing to add to his current arsenal.]

That's just inviting a mass slaughter.

[And it would take a fool to not notice the strain in Nick's voice.]

You don't sound too good, Nick.

Your intent may be a good one, but I don't think many of us are in any position to place our trust in what you're saying.

[Red Wine is not having a good time, but he's also not dead yet. That's a plus, so far.]

I've no wish to kill anyone, but one person has already tried to force my hand.

[he sounds awful]

Don't send them to the clinic. Not unless they're injured. We have our hands full here, there's no room...

[Lance's hair is a mess and he looks a little tired, but neither of those things is all too abnormal.]

Is there anything set up for people who might need help out in the middle of things? There's an SOS app, right?

How secure are the headquarters, sir?

I can cast a shield around both if I can get there, though I won't be able to maintain it for very long.
