life on mars (d1) gene hunt

(no subject)

[hello, Astral Plane. have a Gene Hunt. a very unhappy Gene Hunt. and he's every right to be, really! one of the scumbag child molesters he put away about six years ago is out on parole and there's whispers on the streets, but nothing even he can justify sending people out for. it's put him in quite the mood.

he's also rather peeved he's got a Cheetah person following him around, but let's not get into that

so! anyone who's interested? the Guv is currently sitting at the bar, which has been miraculously restocked since exploding, nursing a pint of bitter. because it's what he does]

Taste? How do you mean?

I don't much fancy his gay boy science.

{Speaking of gay, nice suit you've got there, Gene} Ne, I don't understand what you mean? What kind of science is Sam into?

[he says what's wrong with his suit?] That forensic bullocks, Diva. Not real detective work at all, if you ask me.

{Because you're from the 70s, I can forgive you.} Forensics...Forensics...{She taps her lip lightly with a finger before shaking her head} I haven't heard of it.

[score!] You know, pays too much attention to blood patterns and shite like that.

Oh, that's what it's called? Ne, that sounds familiar after all. I remember Solomon mentioning that they had to kill some kind of law enforcement because one of my Chevalier left their blood behind and they found out it wasn't human.

{As an afterthought} But that's really a job? That sounds so boring.

[snorts, leaning back in his chair] Yeah, it's a job, luv. And it's just as boring as it sounds. Give me a gun and a badge and I'm good. There's no bloody life in sitting around all day checking out some poor bastard's chalk mark.

It at least sounds more exciting. Do you like your job?

'course I do. I'm also the best damn copper in the City.

Of course! The way Gene acts, I mean, it's not surprising.

What's that supposed to mean?

Well, it's like you said. Gene is pretty intimidating, I think. So that would help.

It does, luv. Makes kicking in a nonce after he's back-talked more satisfying, too.

{Laughs} I bet that Sam doesn't like the way you handle things, then. Or at least, it wouldn't seem like it.

Not much, no. Takes a bit learning to ignore him.

Poor Sam~ You know, you two seem so different and, um, argumentative, but you seem to work well together. Or at least care about the other.

He keeps me on my toes and I knock him a new one when he needs it. Figure it works pretty damn well, yeah.

...Um...you don't really hurt him, do you?

Not anymore than he deserves.

{Just sighs} You seem proud of that.

Point?

Well! It bothers me that you hurt Sam. Ne, but...that's Gene, I guess.

A punch to the kidneys isn't gonna hurt him, luv. He can take care of himself.

...That doesn't make sense. But even if he can, it still bothers me. {Nods} But I won't do anything about it. For you two, maybe it's a sign of friendship.
