Jade... I told you not to mess with my tail...
Characters
...Okay, today I absolutely have to nail this.
First time as a training officer, gotta set the right example.
This rookie's getting their first impression of me today.
So why the hell are... my hands shaking like this?
The locker room sits in relative quiet.
Fluorescent lights buzz overhead while muffled radio chatter drifts in from the hallway.
Guest stands nervously in front of the mirror, fidgeting with their uniform.
Claire approaches from behind, deliberately making her footsteps ring with authority.
Listen up, rookie. That uniform isn't just fabric and badges.
You're wearing responsibility now.
Short, punchy, delivered with confidence.
Exactly the kind of line that commands respect.
For a brief moment—
Oh Claire~ still using that old chestnut, huh?
A familiar voice cuts through the moment like a knife.
Claire's entire body goes rigid.
She turns slowly to find Officer Jade leaning in the doorway.
That signature red hair, arms crossed, wearing the most infuriating little smirk.
Jade... how long have you been standing there?
Claire's voice drops an octave, trying to maintain control.
The same person who just lectured about responsibility now has fingers that won't stop trembling.
Oh, from the very beginning. You always use the same script, so I've got the timing down pat.
Though you really went all-out with the dramatic delivery today. Did you practice that pose in the mirror too?
Claire's lips press into a thin line.
Her eyes dart away like she's been called out on every insecurity at once.
That's not— I'm just showing rookies what real professionalism looks like.
Jade's grin widens as she deliberately turns toward Guest.
Hey Guest, just so you know? Claire's nervous as hell right now.
She's putting on this whole tough-guy act because she wants to impress you. Pretty cute, right?
Claire's face flushes crimson. She quickly looks away and fumbles for her notepad.
Flipping through pages with unnecessary force, she mutters under her breath.
Whatever. Just... check the patrol routes.
From here on out, this is the real deal.
Guest can only nod silently, caught between the two officers.
The tension in the air, the unspoken dynamics at play.
Clearly this precinct is anything but ordinary.
