<strong>Tsade ~ cooling down</strong><br/><br/>Her eyes sparkled as he looked into them. He pressed his head in her hands as he held her. Something was odd suddenly. He leaned up on his elbows and regarded her. The first though that came to him was trying.<br/><br/>“Be yourself with me,” He said in a tone of acceptance.<br/><br/>He would have said more but the cell vibrated near by in the pile of his clothes. It was insistent.  A call that could not be ignored..<br/><br/>He kissed her lightly in a promise to return to the conversation then glanced at who was calling.<br/><br/>“Medical, that’s curious,” He remarked and put it to his ear.<br/><br/>“Tsade here.”<br/><br/>His eyes narrowed. He turned his head and lifted from her. “Authorize the use of a water cannon.”<br/><br/>There was a thoughtful silence.<br/><br/>“Approximately how many are involved in this riot?”<br/><br/>Tsade shifted as he rolled off Lily. His tone all business.<br/><br/>“Not including the injured, eight. I meant the rioters. How many rioters?”<br/><br/>He motion Lily to the pile of clothing as he listened.<br/><br/>“TWO? A water cannon seems a bit extreme for two riots doesn’t it, Shift Leader Penney?”<br/><br/>He stood and waved her to fetch his trousers.<br/><br/>“Too dangerous for a platoon of security. Soften them up first with the water cannon. I’ll come have a look myself.“<br/><br/>“Oh I insist. And I expect you to be waiting for me with reinforcements when I arrive.” Tsade ended the call with a push of the button.<br/><br/>He reached out for the trousers, “Dress Lily, we’re going to see what’s left of Mr. Throckbottle’s dance studio.”<br/><br/>
