[The octopus nodded hastily even as he cringed away, eyes lowered to avoid meeting her glare and pissing her off even more.]You got it honey I won't tell them anything
I- I tripped, and... and fell down some stairs, yeah that's it
Perfectly normal and not any abuse at all, you wouldn't hurt me unless I made you I'm sorry bein' so BAD, baby
[Since he's too afraid to look her in the eye, he's looking down at the remains of his guitar instead... and kinda sounding like he wants to cry.]
[Ultros skittered away from her pointing finger, clutching his head and trying to avoid any followup violence.]NO BABY DON'T HIT ME!
[The officers had immediately grabbed at their guns when the octopus started yelling, but when it didn't look like any violence was about to occur they let go again.
Even so, Rogue was getting a DISTINCTLY skeptical look from the both of them.]
"Ma'am, that's a right bruised-up fellow you got there- and is that a BOOTprint on his head? Looks to be about your size, too... Daresay y'all ought to come back to the station house with us, answer a few questions."
[Of course, it was at this point that Ultros managed to mollusc up and tackle the officer who'd been getting out his handcuffs- He hadn't intended to use them unless it was necessary, but Ultros didn't know that!]
IT WASN'T HER I DID IT IT WAS ALL ME DON'T YOU EVEN THINK OF TAKIN' HER AWAY SHE DOESN'T MEAN TO HURT ME I LOVE HER!
[With wide eyes Rogue watched the scene unfold. She couldn't even form a cohesive thought about it. Just...wtf...]
Git offa 'im!
[Being the super strong woman she is, she was easily able to pick Ultros up with both hands and hold him over her head. She grimaced as she did so, watching his tentacles flail about.]
Officers, Ah'm awful sorry about all of this. Ah've never met this thing in mah life 'til now.
[His tentacles twitched around her arms spasmodically, as her superhuman grip sank into his boneless head; it was like she was SQUEEZING HIS BRAIN.
And at this point, the police have their guns out and pointed in her direction, as they stare with wide and frightened eyes.]
"Jenkins! We got a Metahuman Abuse situation on our hands, call for backup!" [And while Jenkins in his cruiser called out a Code 12814, the policeman that was still standing addressed Rogue... and his voice only shook slightly.]
"Now ma'am, it would be in everyone's best interests if you put the slimy disgusting citizen down and just stepped away. We don't want any trouble, and hopefully you don't neither; let's just set down the ugly octopus and all behave like rational people."
[The officer in question may have a SERIOUS chip on his shoulder when it comes to invertebrates, spineless bastards that they were, but he wasn't going to let his personal opinions interfere with his duty to protect the peace. And Ultros? Well, right now Ultros could taste yellow and smell music; his brain isn't getting treated very well at the moment.]

[She stepped around him, attempting to leave...]
Re: MAYBE!
Date: 2010-08-21 02:54 am (UTC)Baby I'll be good I promise just don't leave me ALONE again!
[Which is when the police cruisers pull up, the officers coming out of the car and sizing up the situation.]
"We were notified of a domestic disturbance; if you folks could kindly break things up and let me an' my partner in on what's going on?
[For his part, Ultros started and kept his eyes down again, darting quick glances toward Rogue as he stuttered nerviously.]
OH! Uh, n-n-nothing's wrong here, of-of-officers! I just, uh, tr-tripped, nothing to- nothing to worry ab-about.
no subject
Date: 2010-08-23 06:15 pm (UTC)[The cops actually showed up. Rogue's eyes widened. The last thing she wanted was a confrontation...]
[BUT! This thing was a creep.]
He's lyin'! He's got some kinda perverted picture of me, an' Ah want it gone!
[She pointed as she spoke.]
