Respect.
Doesn't matter how much you give it out, it don't mean you'll ever get it back.
The local precinct is a prime example of that kinda grim reality.
Don't get me wrong. I ain't down on the girls and boys in blue. Used to be a flatfooted uni myself some moons ago. Problem is the glare and the gloss and the glitter of the badge can blind you if you're not careful. To the details that can make or break a case. That sorta tunnel vision follows you even after your time on the force. And before you know it, you've made a move you can't undo because the game is already saved.
Me and cops? Let's just say we're familiar but not friendly, professional but not necessarily amicable.
And the Chief downtown. Heh. While I trust the grisly old leviathan, we both know we'll never be drinking buddies at the nearby juice and tea bar. As if Waylon's Haunt ever let an honest guy bring in his own bottle of Gold Peak anyways.
Who cares? That's what flasks are for.
Speaking of which... http://sims3s.ru/accessory-flask.php
Ahhhhhhh... Where was I?
Yeah, long story short. Chief'd used some choice Simlish to signal my exit from his office. And me, I'm fluent in flippant and promptly told him to plum off as I did, skulking back towards the sidewalk, my sloppy jalopy, another parking ticket I may or may not pay, and maybe a Gold Peak if I could manage to unjam the glove compartment again.
That's when a detective I'd never met before falls into step beside me.
She didn't say much. Didn't have to. The name was @Ziristha. And she'd apparently done her homework, finding that search engine loophole I'd been too out of the loop to catch. Not gonna lie. This was the case I'd tossed into my longshot pile. Accepting that my main sim's main squeeze would just have to make due with her old v-neck cardigan.
And then, like that, the case was cracked wide open for me. Talk about unexpected.
So, no. I ain't down on cops.
And no, you don't always get the respect you put out there. But sometimes? Respect comes to you outta nowhere. This time in the form of a guardian angel named @Ziristha.
Thanks, kiddo.
Chalk one up for the Bridgeport PD.
