[the Brig arrives on the Astral Plane, looking just a tad bit roughed up] Oh, of all the...


Someone do please remind me not to attempt to break up fights with soldiers possessing horns. I almost found myself impaled.

[concerned!TARDIS is concerned] My dear Brigadier, what happened to you?

[barelyemoting.livejournal.com]

[the Brig begins straightening himself out] Funny thing, the people on Blackbird. They have horns.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

Horned people who worship an Earth band from the 1960s? [shakes her head] I've taken the Doctor to strange places before, but that's certainly the strangest. Do you need any assistance?

[barelyemoting.livejournal.com]

Not to worry, I'm certain it's just scrapes and bruises. One of the fellows had antlers. [he continues the task of making sure everything is neat and orderly] If I didn't know better, I'd say the man sharpened them.

How unfortunate. [Doesn't care, but wtf soldiers with horns? :|]

[barelyemoting.livejournal.com]

Very much so. [yes, Vexen, soldiers with horns :|]

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

And are such malformations commonplace in your world?

[barelyemoting.livejournal.com]

Of course not - but where I am isn't Earth.

[contract_star]

Sir? What happened?

[barelyemoting.livejournal.com]

Scuffle between the men. Someone had to break it up before it got too out of hand.

[contract_star]

...You mentioned horns? The people have horns where you are?

[barelyemoting.livejournal.com]

Ah, yes. The natives of Blackbird have horns. It's a way of establishing social structure, breeding, and warrior classes.

[Trots up, curiosity aroused.] Roughed up, roughed down, impaled-imflushed-imperfect.

[this is the Brig staring rather blankly at the talking cat for a few moments]

...More or less.

[cyfor.livejournal.com]

S' rude to stare, y'know, sah. [Sits military straight.]

[barelyemoting.livejournal.com]

I was simply trying to figure out whether I was hallucinating or there really was a talking cat in front of me.

[notquiteawidow.livejournal.com]

[giving him a slightly worried look] Nothing you couldn't handle, right?

[barelyemoting.livejournal.com]

[he nods] You know how the men can be, Miss Noble. They may have the upper hand on a few areas, but I know how to break up fights.

[notquiteawidow.livejournal.com]

[still being a bit fussy and messing with his clothes] I think your shirt is ruined. They're morons sometimes. All fight fight fight over silly little things like it's the most bloody important thing in the world.

[twelvemasks.livejournal.com]

Could you wear padding?

[barelyemoting.livejournal.com]

I'd rather not have to.

[twelvemasks.livejournal.com]

... Would a bullet proof vest stop horns? [More out of random curiosity than anything]

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

That's a good general rule to follow. What were they fighting over?

[barelyemoting.livejournal.com]

I've absolutely no idea.

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

Yet another reason not to jump in then.
