[And then with a click, it switches to video. The ceiling of Anemone's living room is seen, along with the side of the couch which has a few specks of blood. She can be heard whimpering, as well as a few soft, choking sounds, and wet burbling.

Her hand creeps into view, fingers shaking. They smack the camera, streaking it red, and she whimpers a bit louder. Gulliver's heard squeaking in panic, and the communicator wiggles on the ground before the video changes. Only a brief glance of a red mess and pink hair can be seen before the carpet is in view.

Her whimpering soon begins to sound like crying, and her fingers tap the device but she's not hitting any keys. It soon shuts off.]


[[ooc: Ladies and gentlemen, never say this to Legato, or he'll break your arms and legs and make you rip out your own tongue too.]]

[Faust was already at work on Anemone, numerous tiny Fausts working in different areas around the room. A massive, grotesque flower greeted her with a bow, then ushered her wordlessly to a seat.]

Very busy, can't talk now!

[His long fingers were a blur as he worked on Anemone's tongue and mouth. A few other mini-Faust's were resetting and healing her arms and legs, bright energy flowing from their small hands.]

You're Saber, right?

[That damned weird doctor again. Shinji leaned up against the wall, watching him 'repair' Anemone. That word described it better than 'treat,' considering the strange methods. He couldn't resent it too much though. He was too exhausted, stressed, and pissed off to care. As long as she got fixed up and wasn't in any pain for long.

He sure wasn't feeling talkative though.]

[

Breathing a soft, barely audible sigh of relief, Saber settled into the preferred chair. As long as Anemone was being seen to, there was no use in worrying.

She frowned slightly, watching the doctor. She had seen many strange things in her time as a Servant, and the powers of Magi could at times be downright grotesque. But this was bizarre even by a Magus's standards.

However, if it got the job done, who was she to be critical?

[Having mended most of the limb damage, the helpers went about casting her injuries.]

Her limbs should be movable in a few days, just make sure she rests.

[The tongue surgery took another good hour. Faust was nothing, if not a perfectionist. When he was satisfied, the helpers simply disappeared into thin air.]

Reattaching some of the nerve damage was the hardest part, but it should be fully healed in a few days. Tell her not to speak for at least a week and choose liquid sustenance. Above all else, MAKE HER REST.

....

[He kept up the silent and surly presence in the corner until Faust mentioned 'make her rest.' Then he frowned and cleared his throat.]

You guys need to keep her here for a few days. Ain't safe where she lives.

And uh.. thanks.

[want-to-dissect.livejournal.com]

I see...Very well. She will be well-protected.

[Two other larger flowers burst up from the ground, picking up her cot and IV.]

Take her to a safe holding area and see to her well-being.

[The slowly nod, then take her away.]

Who is responsible for this?

[rex-britanniae.livejournal.com]

As of yet, I do not know. Since she is unable to speak at this time, I see no reason to question her about the incident yet.

[

She turned to Shinji with a questioning glance, hoping that he might know something of what transpired.

[He scowled at the term 'holding area,' but shrugged it off otherwise. At least she'd be safe. That was the important part. He'd have to find her a new apartment on top of everything else--

--he frowned, jolted out of his own thoughts by Saber and Faust. He had to bite down a sudden wave of anger and answer them through his teeth.]

It's that Legato guy. I'm sure of it...

Tch. Not that it's a secret. That guy brags all over the damn network about who he tortures, and no one's done shit. That includes me, I guess.

Saber's expression turned grim. In the midst of consolidating, reorganising, and strengthening the police force, apprehending lawbreakers was going to be more difficult than ever. It was as if every troublemaker throughout the city was deliberately testing them, though Saber was inclined to think that was probably the case with many of them.

We will have to apprehend him for questioning. Do you know where he might be?
