Violet ~~~~~ | Violet wasn't sure that she agreed there, having always been brought up with the idea that she had to be open and able to be fallible of some of her actions, she couldn't necessarily say that Emily was still in the right with what she did leaving her only to believe that in turn she had done something wrong. Even with the affirmation from the man Violet wouldn't resolve that somehow she'd taken his words to heart or for that matter even react. It wasn't until he'd mentioned his own relation to this school, why he'd dropped in the first place. "Woah Captain really?! I didn't realize this school had been around for that long."Head cocked round and giving him an eyeful before smirking herself. Violet felt a little sassy after getting pushed around all morning, actually this was a slow thing coming to part recently, a new formation under her skin really. She'd turn her attention to the passed out leader waiting for some sort of intervention from the man in the room. If the leader did wake up however she'd spring to action. Grappling him by the vest she'd slam him against the table and begin screaming in her most masculine, guttural voice. "WHERES THE TRIGGER! TELL ME WHERES RACHEL!" Sliding her hand to the bedside table and retrieve a glass of water before offering it forward to the ailed young man. "Drink... You're probably hurting a bit, this'll help a bit." Violet would bide her time slowly letting the boy get comfortable probably even react harshly but she was the sort who interrogated with a good deal of grace not simply bashing her foes into a wall.

David chuckled.
"Yes, it was a little over twelve years ago. So long before you were born."
Hey, if she wanted to make age jokes he could too! He'd gently place the leader in the bed, and after about ten minutes the man woke up. He saw David who stood across the room, arms folded. Then his eyes slid over to Violet who offered him water. He'd weakly slap it out of her hand, opening his mouth to call out to the nurse only to wince from the stab of pain that would radiate through his body. He saw his other men in other beds in the infirmary....so he couldn't get out the word that he was now being played.
"I...a-aint tellin' you shit. Get out of my face."
David would cock an eyebrow.
"Well that's no way to talk to a lady...."

Violet ~~~~~ | Violet would look at him with concern more than anything else, sure it'd shocked her that someone could respond with such malice over being treated with kindness perhaps a normal reaction to someone who hadn't been offered much of it in return. Really though it had been the boys undoing, attacking senselessly especially against someone who he knew was far stronger than he. Hubris. "Then I suppose I won't ask how you're feeling, or if you have any preexisting conditions I may have exasperated in our tussle?" Violet would respond coolly not batting an eye as she hadn't even proposed any sort of interrogating questions, nothing of the sort that might have put him off. She'd rise at this point to move to his other men offering them up much of the same treatment in turn giving each a glass of water or the equivalent rather in plastic cups. Violet would never prompt a question or put them under any sort of pressure merely return to her seat with a calm demeanor as the man seemed to loom. Patience was her advocate in all walks of life, they knew that she was no longer a pillar at this point merely acting out of self-defense. She had gone out of her way to make sure during the fight each of them had a fighting chance even allowing them to gang up on her and rise when they had fallen. Most importantly she'd treated them each kindly, treating to their wounds, and not put them into a situation where she begged their compliance. Violet merely waited. Would they approach her as a prospected ally? or maybe see the folly in their ways and confess? David B. |

His brow furrowed as his eyes narrowed.
"You're weird."
He looked away. He was not used to anyone giving a shit about their opponent once they'd lost. Hell, he'd been spat on, pissed on, or continually stomped on after a loss. Someone sitting by his bed and trying to be friendly? Definitely not. He would turn back to her and ask her about it.
"Why are you here? You already 'taught me a lesson' what more do you want?"

Violet ~~~~~ | Violet would grin in turn with a static sort of energy, it was an apt description of whom she was. Weird, an outcast as it were both to her peers and strangers alike, it made a lot of sense in the ways in which she'd handled her job as a pillar but she didn't regret it once. Violet would lean in confidently to his side with an endearing amount of bedside manner. Wanna know a secret?" She'd let out in a low whisper nodding over her shoulder to eye both his companions and the stranger that'd been off in the corner. Violet would drag it out a bit letting the silence become deafening. "We're not all too different, the lot of us." Letting out a giggle before bouncing back in her chair energetically. "What I'd like from you is what I'd like for myself, to be at peace. But neither one of us can have it without help from another." She'd say with a glint in her eye conceding that she was in fact vulnerable and in many aspects just as weak as he had been in that last fight. David B. |

IC:
The man was suspicious but, at her seemingly boundless energy and overtly kind nature he visibly relaxed. She didn't seem to be trying to trick him or anything...in fact, she seemed very genuine. He didn't trust the male leaning against the wall, shifting uncomfortably and giving him the stink eye. David, picking up the queue would turn to Violet, gesturing with his thumb as he spoke.
"I'm gonna go grab some coffee in the caf. You want something?"
He'd nod regardless of what she said, and left! David wasn't perfect, but he sure as hell could take hint and queues. To him, David was clearly the bad cop. And judging from the boys face and reaction, Violet was the good cop. Best to leave her to it, since her shtick seemed to be working brilliantly....if...if it even was Shtick.
The male turned his eyes back to her and cleared his throat, more comfortable that.
"W-what did you mean, about helping?"

Violet ~~~~~ | Violet would pick up on it too although a tad bit slower than David himself, turning her head she'd nod to him with an affirmative grin. "Yeah thanks, a snack would be nice.. I'm not too picky so take your time." She'd finish with a brisk laugh readdressing the boy with her attention. Violet's brow would furrow suddenly at his words as she contemplated just what she meant indeed. "I understand why you're upset... with the hierarchy I mean... with the lot in life a number of you have been exposed to." Vi would gulp down taking a soothing breath as she tried to regain composure, it may appear that her recent absence from her office had in fact gotten to her to a small degree. "I want to do what I can to make sure everyone has a fair chance here... remove the aspects that inadequate us... if that means talking with your higher ups in the gang. I could use their help to really relay with the pillars and SHCP." To be honest Violet wasn't one hundred percent sure where she was going with this mostly riffing to see what she could do to help until the tendrils of information poured out. David B. |

The male scowled.
"Some would see me telling you this as an affront. A betrayal. Why should I trust a Pillar with anything? For all I know you could wipe them out."
And, after what he just saw....she might just be able to.

Violet ~~~~~ | Violet would innocently giggle after he made his passionate case. He gave her way too much credit, for one she certainly didn't feel that strong and two did she even have the motivation or drive to break down and as he put it wipe them out? Waving a finger in front of him she'd simply state her case. "Well you see... I'm no longer a pillar." Receding her hands and clapping them before placing them folded down into her lap innocently smiling. Vi really did concern herself with how he'd felt about it, really not wanting to push the guy beyond what he was willing to do so she'd wait a moment, really read his features to see if he were truly adamant about staying tight lipped. If such was the case she'd try to further prove herself deserving. "If I were the annihilating sort I'd have just made an example of you, not try to get you back to health. The goal here is to make this a win-win for both of us not muddle each other up with bloodying our knuckles senselessly." Vi would exhale poofing up her bangs out of her eyes so she could maintain keen eye contact. David B. |

--PERCEPTION CHECK: FAILED
IC:
She'd be unable to read his features and guess about whether he was truly invested there or not. However, she got him to hum a little at her remaining devoted to this idea that there could be a win win. He sighed, glancing at the door to make sure nobody could hear, while also checking his men who just happened to be sleeping. He seemed to scan her face before clearing his throat.
"Look...lady, you ain't half bad. I'll give you that. But...there is no such thing as a win for either side anymore. You got the Pillars and the SHCP squeezing the students, trying to get kids who are beaten on constantly back in line. In order to fight back....we have to team up. Otherwise, we'd all just get beat up and have to deal with it."
He would glance at the clock.
"At nine thirty, my gang is gonna meet in the soccer field. Our leader will be there. You wanna make your case, go ahead and try but...I'd suggest going prepared to fight. And definitely bring someone you can trust to watch that pretty little butt of yours."
He grinned broadly and gave her a wink, purposely glancing down at the rear sitting in the chair before doing so.

Violet ~~~~~ | Violet would zone out that last bit of commentary really more for his sake, she didn't want to have to beat a man already half way into a comatose that much further there. Rolling her eyes she'd promote a solid grin and step up to him patting the guy's chest softly and looking him close in the eyes. "I really appreciate it... Thank you... Now get better." A little unintentional punch to his shoulder before mouthing sorry to him as she'd make her exit around the corner looking for Mr. Tall and Strong silent before giving him the low-down. Though really she could totally handle this right..? David B. |

David was already standing outside the door, to the right and leaning against a wall. He held a cup of coffee in one hand, and a granola and snickers bar in the other. He took a little drink, offering both the snacks to her as he'd already eaten his own. He'd push off the wall lazily before giving a big smile.
"Alright! So, where'd the guy point us to nancy drew?"
Yeah, he was making a spy reference. So what?

Violet ~~~~~ | Violet would jump initially in surprise at him being there.A momentary instance of her grappling her chest with her free hand trying to catch her breath before taking both the bars as compensation regardless of whether or not that was indeed what he'd intended. Breaking into the snickers she'd devour it as though she'd never had a meal in her life making sure to smear a bit of the chocolate both along her lips as well as over her fingers... a child really. "Hah-hah." She'd mock laugh dryly looking up at him again finally with a refined posture taking quick to draw a napkin of sorts which was really her last night's notes to wipe her figure clean. "To the soccer field... though I have a favor to ask." She didn't know the guy really, didn't even get his name so how could she really trust someone with this amount of significance. "I'd like for you to just stick back... stay out of this, its student business really." As calm as she looked right about now she was really afraid. Violet hadn't dealt with many a threat, even as pillar it was a new frontier she was up against and if she could settle things peacefully that would be number one of her priority list. A nod before she'd take off whether he'd follow or not was up to him, but she'd make a quick stop to her locker to make a costume change before making her big debut. David B. |

David tilted his head to the side.
"I can do that, until it becomes necessary that I don't."
It was why he let her handle the goons earlier. David wasn't there to pick fights with kids. But, had she been getting decimated he would have gotten involved. Same went here. He'd let her fight or talk however she liked. And if they threw a beatdown he'd get her out of there. He wasn't going to lie and say he wouldn't step in, even if she were being terribly hurt. He'd shrug and, if she had no argument to his statement, would follow her!
Out in the field, many students began to gather.
Too many.
There were at least twenty. And in the front, talking to them, was a male with a blue mohawk. He was talking about leading the charge against the Student Hierarchy. About getting back at those who were treated as special. As they stepped onto the field, most of the group turned and stared, grumbles starting to cook up.
Really? A Pillar, here?
There was going to be some problems.

Violet ~~~~~ | Violet would come in disguise... Granted it wasn't the best thought out disguise in the world, in fact it was just a bunch of materials gathered from the stage department including: A fake mustache, an overcoat, and a monocle. With her hair pinned up above her head in a bun and apparel somewhat veiled by the coat she was staged and put together no longer Violet, instead she was Sir Percival Le Strange. Strutting her stuff she'd take up a position in the midst of the crowd drawing many an eye although eager to ignore their glances and pay heed to what the voice of the blue mohawk had to say. Really though it was only respectful to see where he had been ailed and where these kids were really troubled before she could address the issue.... Hearing his peace she'd stride up to him and raise her hand to be given her fair interaction into the fold, probably looking that much more so out of place. If she were addressed she'd speak up... after all this was an open forum right? "Why not take it up with them in private council? Get your concerns head directly?" Reasonable right? Of course she'd depend her voice with a bit of scruff. Yeah she had to sell the role. David B. |
