002 ↔ video
[Saul's not a fan of using video on this thing. Anyone could be watching, and he's sure that's the case — which means he's about to show a hand of cards he never really wanted to — but he also knows he needs to come across as sincere and non-threatening as possible if he wants this request to be taken seriously. Text wouldn't work, voice... might, but also might not.
He still has his doubts, though. What he's about to do is ridiculous, even by his own standards. He'd laugh at anyone else making a suggestion like this, and he's half-tempted to laugh at himself, too, but when the feed clicks on and his image appears, he's all business. Literally: in a suit, at a desk, weapon laid out (for those who'd notice, the weapon is disengaged, the safety on; he's learning!), hands folded.]
This — [indicating the weapon, then lacing his fingers back together] — is a shotgun that's been modified to use non-lethal electrified bullets. The charge measures about 500 volts, and —
[There go his hands again, moving to retrieve one of the cartridges. He lifts it to the lens, waits for it to focus, then continues speaking.]
From what I understand, that should be enough to temporarily incapacitate a normal human being. But the problem is, I'm not sure. I've been using blanks on the dummies over in the Hold, so I have no idea what effect one of these things would actually have on a living, breathing person. So...
[He trails off, lowers the cartridge, and shifts uncomfortably in his chair.]
I realize how unorthodox and just plain sketchy a request like this is going to sound, but... who's willing to let me shoot them, and who's willing to be the medic present if-slash-when this happens? I'm looking for someone over eighteen, healthy, preferably human. I can compensate you with fifty doll—uh. Marques. Or we can negotiate, if necessary.
Serious inquiries only. Thanks.

[WHY IS THAT, STEPH?
No one wants to know the answer.]

So this has been a great round of over-sharing. Let's do it again sometime.
no subject
Am I being dismissed?
[Just making sure.]
no subject
[He makes a "shoo" gesture. Nicely!]
Get some rest.

[The most sarcastic sir in the world, but she does at least get up from her seat, starting towards the door, though in a moment of ridiculous and desire to keep trolling Saul, she leans down to press a quick kiss to his cheek as she passes.]
Thanks for the coffee.
[Which doesn't really make sense when she brought her own, but whatever, she's just going to give him a grin and slip out onto the street.
Batgirl out.]

Except "rest" isn't the correct word because resting does not involve an audible thunk, usually.]
