something like "squishy"

And then you kiss.

We exit the building and walk towards the motor pool.

"I have an idea for a nickname."

"Sure, what is it?"

"Pinkie."

"Uh, why that one?"

"Because that is what color you look like."

We enter the building. Inside there is a terminal for logging out vehicles, a Zikiren engineer attached to a Panician, and a Hathian behind the counter.

>>399173
Here's a tip for you: Hathians don't give thier names to people they don't know.

Chuckles: Obtain sweet ride.

Pinkie: Meddle in the affairs of more aliens you are not even acquaintances with.

wait why is that engie on a leash

>>399173
Well lets get this patrol started, streets won't keep themselves safe and all that.

>>399173
Is it normal for Panicians to be leashed like that?

Well I would not call them leashed together, but rather connected to each others minds. Panicians make great tools for various tasks such as repairing equipment or bomb disposal. Zikiren males often join the CSF as combat engineers or maintenance crew and are commonly found 'leashed' together with Panicians because they seem to be the most compatible with each other for some reason.

make a note of what Pinky chose as a loadout, grab the most badas-looking vehicle you can and start patrolling the streets

There are two vehicles available to me to use.

The first one is a small and fast patrol vehicle specifically designed for use in civilian populations. It is not terribly well armored but will resist some small arms fire.

The second vehicle is the standard light armored car of the CSF, used in both civil protection and military engagements. Not as fast as the first one but is armored enough to shrug off small arms and also indirect explosions.

The former, unless you have a reason to expect some serious engagements.

Take the light armored car. Situations with gunfire and explosions tend to pop up suddenly, and you'll want that extra armor. If you have to give chase you can call another patrol to intercept or run them down, right? ...And where do you put anyone you arrest in that patrol vehicle? In the trunk?

>>401593
Uh... I assume the tall one is the Zikiren, but I've been wrong before. I'd hope that cable spools out a little farther if they're doing something like bomb disposal.

if you're a good driver, the former. if you won't ba able to do any dodgy tricks, the latter.

I think the second one is a solid choice.

Get under the car. Exclaim you're a squirrel and that feels great.

Meanwhile...

Private Lee is trying to decide if he should pet the Panician or not. It is emitting a low hissing noise as he brings his hand closer to it, but he still really wants to pet it.

you gonna get bit.

You should pet it anyway but be ready to yank your hand away if it tries to bite you.

petting is for pets. that guy is not a pet but an engineer, thus probably way smarter than you, so don't, because that'd be just plain insulting.

>>405743
Whether it's the engineer or attached to the engineer is up in the air. Either way, it's basic common sense you do not try to pet creatures that hiss and bare their teeth at you. It's probably has a higher rank than you as well.

Panicians are a bio-engineered species made by Hathian scientists as a cheap way of building and maintaining military infrastructure. The person it is attached to is a Zikiren, a tall semi-warm blooded alien. He is the engineer the Panician is attached to. Panicians as far as everyone knows are barely sentient and fairly unintelligent if unaugmented, they are also ill tempered but in theory should not hurt you if they are not told to.

Private Lee brings his hand closer to the Panician, which provokes it to open it's mouth wider, it's hissing filling the room. He now very unsure if he should pet it or not.

generally speaking its a bad idea to pet something that bares its teeth at you. don't touch it.

>>405833
don't pet it you moron

Pet it.

PET IT YOU DAMN FOOL

Yiff it.

Well it all depends on how much you really like those fingers of yours.

You touch that Panician, and Chuckles is going to be annoyed that his latest partner didn't even get out of the compound before sustaining a serious injury. ...That means don't pet it, you moron.

Wow, why are you so stupid? What happened to humanity in this universe?

we are in the vehicle, the human is just staring at me as I am establishing remote control of the vehicle.
Should we Talk about something or Start the patrol?

ask him why the FUCK he thought petting something that is hissing st him could be a good idea.

Ask Pinkie just what was so enticing about an agitated Panician that he just had to try and touch it. You're curious if this is a drive all humans have, or just him.

Silently wish Pinkie had gotten his hand bit back there. Then maybe you wouldn't have to go on patrol with him.

Patrol for yiffy vixens.

>>407413
How cute, the human is trying to drive using the steering wheel.

Don't badger him. No need to make your new partner think you're a dick the first chance you get. He does seem like a nice guy even if he is kind of oblivious. Instead ask him what he is trained for and how he wound up here on Esan.

begin. I'm anxuíous for something to actually happen.

>Why he thought petting something that is hissing is a good idea
Actually, even if I kick one they will only hiss at you, they hiss at everything but can not do anything unless commanded to. I could be strangling one and it will not be able to do anything to me at all. So it is perfectly safe to pet one, actually, It is the handler that you have to be worried about. Human probably lost his nerve, heh.

>What he is trained for and how he wound up here
I can look that up right now actually... Looks like he received Basic and Civil Protection Training, not particularly skilled it looks like. Also he was placed here at random as he did not request a deployment anywhere.

>Human is trying to drive using the steering wheel
That is a good idea...

"There's two guys fighting over there."

"Your point is..."

"Uh, shouldn't we stop them or something?"

I see two Humans fighting each other, Should we stop and break up the fight?

are ether of them armed? if no weapons are involved then it's just a fight, if there is a weapon then it calls for you to step in.
but, he probably doesn't like the idea of seeing his own kind being hurt. try blaring the siren for a second. the sight of the vehicle should startle them into leaving.

>>412226
Depends on what we're patrolling for.

We could at least stop and ask what the fight is about.

Eh, looks like a fistfight. Not really worth stopping for, be we've got nothing better to do, and it'll be easy to break up. Pinkie's handling this one, though. They'll respond better to another human. You'll stay in the vehicle in the highly unlikely case things get worse.

Just to clarify, what's the usual minimum of disturbance and mayhem for you to intervene?

Yes let Pinkie handle it. You can stay in the vehicle and masturbate.

>>412226
Don't let Pinky handle it.
He's seriously, seriously inexperienced.
Chances are he'd do something to break ALL the regulations.

Just honk at them.

Use your stun baton on the dickhole.

Yep, that's assaulting an officer. Go stick your stun baton in his ear and throw that drunk in the trunk.

>>412417
Wait
Isn't Pinkie wearing a helmet that covers the side of his head, too?
He should be fine, needs to tough up, if you can call this toughing up.

Help him if he needs it but don't baby him. He needs to learn that you have his back but wont do everything for him.

Get out the car and prepare to step in if he starts to get his ass kicked.

Step out of the vehicle and get ready to apprehend some...*licking of chops inserted here* criminals. "Hey...cut it out."

Oh I can do much more then that now. Accordingly to this world's laws, the second that civilian attacked pinkie turned him into an enemy combatant. This basically gives me the power to do anything to "neutralize" him, this includes shooting him. There is a catch to this however, I have to give him a 3 second warning to surrender.

>>414933
no objections at all

Shoot him now. With your penis.

don't shoot to kill though. knee-cap him or something. then make your pinkie put him in the vehicle and i guess wrap whatever you shoot. needs to get used to needing to manhandle people. then when you get to the station he needs to be the one to book him.

good lord are you mad?! do you want to start a riot? cause the cops getting involved in a fight and then killing someone is exactly the sort of thing that sparks race riots. subdue him, but don't kill him.

>>414947
yes, killing would be bad, but taking him down is fine because you can point out that the guy attacked your HUMAN partner.

Isn't shooting him overkill? He's human, and drunk, at that. It'd be a waste of ammo. You could easily push him over, prod him with a stun baton, and be done with it. Pinkie can take it from there.

>>414933
Try not to kill him.

>>414933
However you do it, make it painful before the end.
He's drunk, it will take a lot of non-lethal damage before he really starts to feel it.

This guy seems more like a military peacekeeper than an actual cop. That means he's effectively exempt from laws regarding police brutality/overkill.

So what do you do once the drunk is sufficiently "neutralized?" Just dump him in the gutter, or is there more procedure to be followed?

I call for a Civilian Medivac as there is not a spot where we can put him in our vehicle. They arrive promptly and I explain what happened. They check over Pinkie excessively before I shoo them off him.

>procedure to be followed
At this point The human will be taken to a secure hospital to await trial for assaulting a soldier, which should go smoothly as the patrol car has it recorded. Then he will probably be shipped to an off-world mining prison for a few months.

Well, nothing more to do here. Clean the blood off your suit and resume your patrol route.

Tell Pinkie that this is why we don't get involved in piddly shit like breaking up drunken fistfights. He can wake you when something worthwhile happens, like a gunfight or a riot.

I cleaned off my hand of the human blood before reentering the vehicle. Pinkie takes the wheel and resumes the patrol route. I am too alert now to take a nap. It is really quiet in the vehicle with the silence only broken occasionally by radio chatter, it is boring as usual.

Continue to influence Chuckles or influence Pinkie?

Show him around the city. The key points of the place for him to get around.

Be the Panician.

>be Chuckles.

>Remain Chuckles

Recount the last not-boring encounter you had on patrol to Pinkie, so he has an idea of the kind of thing he should stop for.

I'm getting the feeling that you don't like where your career has taken you. How'd you end up on MP duty?

We drive along for while until we get a call from the radio

Dispatch: "Calling all units in the area, car twelve-eighty-three requesting assistance for two suspects fleeing in a ground vehicle, suspects are wanted for a recent armed robbery, shots have been fired."

Pinkie: "Uh, that sounds pretty serious."

Should we respond to this call? there are two other units responding as well as the one currently in pursuit.

they did say ALL units, and may make note of you not coming to assist.

Chuckles: "We are going after them, let go of the wheel."

Pinkie reluctantly lets go of the wheel as I take control of the car.

Pinkie: "Why did you want me to let go of theEEEEE-"

We soon catch up and join the pursuit, The suspect's vehicle is about as fast as ours but it also has less mass. The second suspect, a Human male, is taking potshots at the lead chase vehicle, he is a bad shot further hindered by the automatic weapon he is using.

What is the plan now?

Check on the radio if there is anyone ahead to cut them off, as that would probably be preferable to opening fire on a street. If you don't I guess it is time to take stock of what weapons you have with you.

From the looks of things on the hud there is going to be few areas were a roadblock can be setup. Although it looks like the plan is to herd the suspects to the highway.

Pinkie has a ballistic pistol, I have the matter rifle and the other three people chasing have matter carbines although they cant shoot and drive at the same time unlike me.

Pinkie: "Uh, what are you doing?"

Chuckles: "What does it look like."

Pinkie: "Ok, I guess I'll be sitting here then."

I can try to shoot the suspects or wait until they get on the highway, though the suspects are shooting regardless if they are on city streets or not.

Shoot, but only if you're sure there'll be no civilian casualties.

Are their weapons actually effectual against your vehicles' armor? Returning fire is fairly low priority if their shots are plinking.

Stop the enemy vehicle in a place where civilians are not. Don't be responsible for innocent deaths.

Alright I guess I wont shoot if there are civilians around even though this is a city where civilians are around just about everywhere. The rounds they are shooting are us are only bouncing off the armor, the tires are not as sturdy as the bullets shred the lead vehicle front left tire. It falls back behind us making us the lead chase vehicle.

The highway is coming up where there will be less people do I wait or do I start shooting right now. The suspects do not seem to be running out of bullets any time soon.

shoot
