"What do you mean he's alive, Saunders?"

"Just that, Doc. I caught wind that that hottie Spaniard was back at the duels." The EMT sighed at the thought.

"Pull yourself together, man." The Doctor frowned, "That is really odd. He was DoA. Hades, we transported him.

"I know. It's like the nexus stepped in or something."

"Ta tudo fodido..." The Doc mutters softly in Portuguese. "Alright, we'll just have to see if someone tries again. Got my reports from the recent pick ups? Oh, and what about the recent Incidents with the Pixies and Henry... I understand the Pixies are extremely riled about killings of their folk and Henry was having another episode?"

"Umm, Yeah, Doc." He handed over the files. "That new kid, Jubal... She's been assigned to Henkle's unit."

"Oh geesh... That elf has a stick somewhere unpleasant." Yeah, Doc has had run-in with the Lieutenant in the past.

"Yeah, well apparently the newbie is keeping that division on it's toes."

"Really, Saunders... What are you the office gossip?"

"You know it." The man had the audacity to wink.

Hope was getting some coffee from the caffeine station when she heard a few officers chatting nearby.

Female 1:"Have you heard about Sergeant Mallen?"

Female 2:"What about the Sergeant? He's still doing well isn't he? That young partner isn't pushing him to hard is she?"

Female 1:"No, no. Not that all. He's fit as an old battle axe. I hear in GIU that he's got a thing for her. Sticking his neck out for her and all that. I smell office romance and scandal."

Male 1:"You got it all wrong Debbie. It's Henkle. You know he's only really mad when he's around the eye candy."

Male 2:"Mark, go walk outside and get hit by a car. That is the nastiest pairing possible. I hear from Barry down in Evidence that Jubal was hand feeding fish to Kerri."

Hopes eyes just widened and her cup almost overflowed with hot coffee. She bit her lower lip to keep from hurtling the hot liquid at the voices. She wasn't here for long and already office romance rumors. She slipped away from the coffee station. Perhaps the rumors would die down in a day or two. Between Kerri, Henkle and Mallen someone is bound to hear and flatten the gossip.

An Hope was right alright, and when she was right, she was right and you know what? She was right!

Cause outta nowhere and I mean NO-WHERE came a straight up fish slap via a cold / stank tilapia (Or as Kerri calls it, 'Battle Star Tilapica'), that caught the trio upside each of their heads!

Male #2 was then slapped upside the head again, cause he dropped the wrong name, baby.

"So you kids got some funny ^&%$ going on here, huh? Wanna drop some of that 'ol gossip and spice it up, hmm? Little Old man and young piece of rook-chops, hmm? Maybe talk some &^% about the girl who hasn't been here a minute an momma here? Hey lemme ask you, was this one of the fish she was feedin' me?"

*Fishslap-slap-slap and SLAP!*

"I dunno, maybe we can get some DNA results just to me sure, or maybe I can have this fish pulled outta each of yer #$%@'s cause if I ever catch wind of &^% like this bein' said, that's what I'll do along with my foot."

Kerri glared to each of the trio, back and forth makin' no bones about what she said or did. Then just as quickly as she struck, she smiled to the lot.

"For the record, it was animal crackers and we were trying to break the department record for most mouth catches."

Waving the fish around, Kerri whipped around and left the trio standing there dumb and fish-struck.

"Feed me fish... Only ONE man will ever feed this kitty some fish, an thankfully there ain't no restrainin' orders in effect."

The Doc took up a lean in the doorway as the events of Battle Star Tilapia unfolded. She has no sympathy for that type of gossip. After all, she had been on the receiving end recently of some nasty bullying over someone she was growing to care about.

The fact that the guy in question hasn't bothered to contact her at all and the bully is somehow alive after that fatal beating he took is another story for another time.

She looked at the lot of them, "Gossip is a fact of life in an work environment, children."

The Doctor made no bones about it as she looked over each of the gossip mavens with a critical mechanical eye. "Malicious Gossip, however is something that will not be tolerated. Depending on who you target, the results can be comical..."

Case in point... Battle Star Tilapia

"To severe... Now I don't know about you, but I would rather be on the receiving end of comical. I know I wouldn't want to be receiving my walking papers on the end of a size 11 up my arse. Of course, that is the next step if this continues. Do I make myself clear?"

After a few mumbles of "Yes, Maam." She pointed the three of them to the locker room. "Hit the showers. You three stink worse than the Docks in a Heatwave."

Let's see how fast that one spreads...

"Open it up Bill." Mallen said.

The evidence locker door popped open with an electric click. Mallen moved into the cage and stowed the box of evidence from the dockside escapade. Bill watched him work.

"Grab you a cup of joe, Greg?"

Mallen gave a nod to Bill as he signed in the evidence and the slot number. Exiting the locker he accepted the coffee. "So what's the latest buzz, Bill. You seem fidgity unless you've been sneaking those magazines in again?"

Bill laughed. "No mags. Wife saw the last one burned. The buzz is a bit hot. Captain slapped around some brass that was talking office love. Mack in motorpool supposedly is suping up a little project of his. Rumor has it as well that Jubal has an eye on Henkles job. I think it's just gab, the underdogs finally getting a champ in GIU."

Mallen chuckled. "Thanks for the joe, Bill." He walked off for GIU.

"Wait! Not even a little confirmation on the buzz?" Bill called out.

Mallen waved him off. "Didn't get to where I am playing with the buzz. I know better than to confirm or deny. Good day Bill."
