Entry tags:
reporting for duty
who: Anderson & Eddie
what: Anderson's first day on the police force.
when: ???
where: Police HQ
warnings: None!
[ She really should be past nerves by now.
She's not, though. Anderson isn't even past them at home, to tell the truth, it's just that she shuts them off to do her job. But the fact is that she's not only a borderline pass, she's a confirmed fail, more than once, who got shuffled through the system due to need for her abilities. She's all too conscientious that she's no one's first choice, and she's not sure if that'll change here. Everything seems softer, less violent-- is it ironically true that where she's too compassionate to be a proper Judge in Mega-City One, she's too hard to be a proper detective here?
That really would take the cake. It wouldn't surprise her remotely.
Anderson is determined to do her best regardless. The locals, native and foreign, deserve someone looking after their interests, protecting them, and she wants to be that person. She's absolutely committed to learning the laws she needs to enforce and not backsliding into Mega-City One's fascist dictatoriums. First step: report for training, explain her abilities, request special assignments to catch up on the gaps in her knowledge base for this setting, whether it's legal, weapons comps, geographic or cultural. She's no less set on this course just because the setting has changed.
Feeling hideously underdressed in her distinctly-lacking-in-armor police officer's uniform, she nonetheless takes comfort in the Lawgiver strapped to her side and the other Judge's tools she's kept on her. She takes one step into Eddie's office and waits, more like a military cadet at attention than a new co-worker, and says promptly, in an even tone: ]
Sir. Reporting in for training. I'm Anderson.
