Operation 34 | [Video]
[Skyhouse Suite 102]
[Gale had been in a bit of a rut in recent months, what with working another term as Guardian and all. It hadn't necessarily been a bad thing. It meant he was out and about more, and actually doing good instead of sitting around in his clubs and getting the locals plastered out of their minds. Today seemed off though. He couldn't shake some awful feeling he had. Faye hadn't shown up today. Her not showing up for deputy work wasn't right. Something had to be up.
When he found a break in work, he returned home to the Skyhouse. Maybe she wasn't feeling well. He knocked on her room door, waiting a few moments in between, but received no answer. Against his better judgment he stepped in the room, only to find it empty, with the flowers and box of candy he snuck into her room sitting untouched on the dresser. That awful feeling he had only worsened, spinning on his heel and leaving the room as he pulled out his device. He scrolled through the contacts, now looking frantically for her name. His hand began to tremble as he began to mumble "No" over and over.
His device slid out of his hand and clattered to the floor, grasping his head with his hands as he stared wide eyed at the device.]
It. It can't. No. No, no, no!
[Gale dropped to his knees, letting out an anguished scream.]
[Video]
[Gale had been staring at his phone for a good solid ten minutes. This didn't feel real. He didn't want it to be real. His hand shook as he slowly turned the video on. He was aiming for audio only, but he got video by accident, so to hell with it. He was slumped on the floor as he gave a blank, empty stare to the screen as he gave slow, shaky breaths. Then he quietly spoke.]
Faye is gone.
[His voice was strained. He didn't want to say it, because that all but confirmed it. He inhaled sharply before he gave a dry, pained laugh which completely betrayed the unreadable expression on his face.]
I guess this means Nova will be lookin' another deputy again, huh? Because why the hell wouldn't this happen?
[He gave another strained laugh. This really was his luck, wasn't it? There was nothing to do but laugh, right? Right?]

no subject
[Gale forced a weak laugh, but maybe it was for the best that he couldn't get blasted. He probably would have died numerous times from liver damage by now in Genessia alone.]
I'm not sure people would want the kind of company I'd provide right now. Unless they want to put up with a "tragic backstory" night.
[He's trying to make light of his situation, even if he's failing miserably.]
no subject

Offer's there, 's all I'm divin' at.
