[ first → video ]

[ Hello, have your new 010 » 111 pop up on the network. The video turns on to show someone obviously in their room. He's sitting on the bed and he has the comm resting in his hands on his lap, it's facing him -- even if it's a little off center. His fingers run over the buttons on the device and he clears his throat, ready to speak at the indication that the video is recording.

And yet, the video is upside down. ]


Just a friendly reminder to whoever is in charge that, if you are in fact going to abduct someone from their work and home into outer space -- you might want to reconsider picking a blind man. For one, stars? Completely wasted on me.

[ A slight quirk of his lips up at that. ]

And to... any friendly listeners out there, a brief rundown of this place from someone who isn't a native would be exceptional. I'm sure there's a welcome sign around here but, well, [ He tilts his head just a bit and shrugs lightly. ]

I think that covers it. Nice to meet you, I'm sure you're all very pretty.

[ And then he grins and hangs up. ]

Not fast enough on the draw. Did the guide happen to cover the fact that the ship's even creepier than that? We're constantly being stalked by a Red Smiley Face who... is not friendly to the visuall impaired, now that I think about it.

[Oh, it will be interesting. In the "oh you are... something" way.]

I can promise you it isn't Comic Sans, although sometimes I wish it was. It would make him a way more threatening harbinger of darkness and doom who might actually be our savior.

[That perks him up. CURIOSITY, GO.] Really? Can you hear all the little creaks or is it just the dead silence that gets you?
andblockbuster: (I don't wanna hear about your cat.)

A healthy curiosity never hurt anyone that wasn't a cat. [It hurts everyone, Topher. You are the walking example of this.]

And not like they're floating through the void of space on a three billion hour tour?
andblockbuster: (I'm sexy. I'm cute. I'm popular to boot.)

[Topher remembers those days. There were many, many fires.]

I'm all ears. [LAME JOKES ARE THE BEST.]

[Topher snorts] Good one. Topher Brink, BTW. Resident neurologist, who cheats on the med bay with the science department.

[TEACH HIM, OH BLIND MENTOR.]
andblockbuster: (I'm sexy and I know it.)

[Yes.

Yes. He... did.]


It comes with the territory of being in a really specific medical field that doesn't get a lot of action on a ship lost in space. [BEAMING. Can't see it, but it's there in his voice.] Likewise, dude.
andblockbuster: (In the magical land of Almost Canada.)

[He is an incredibly happy ball of secret debilitating self-loathing... Let's stick with the happy.]

And the minute you don't have one is the minute that someone needs brain surgery. Although, there are way more people on this ship with neural implants than you'd think.
andblockbuster: (I don't wanna hear about your cat.)

[personal profile] andblockbuster 2012-09-24 07:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Eh, so far no one's killed anyone with their brain. And it's not enough for us to start wondering if the space government's implanting things in our heads- believe me, that was a serious concern for awhile. Worry not, mon frere.
andblockbuster: (Tarzan love Jane.)

shhh shhh /strokes hair

Aren't you happy there's a neurologist on board? I ask these questions so no one else has to.
andblockbuster: (I don't like shit as an optimist.)

[personal profile] andblockbuster 2012-09-30 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
I have often thought so.

Hope you like the inevitable group-sing-a-longs as he struggle to keep our humanity in the face of an uncaring world.
andblockbuster: (That must be Jason's dead mother.)

I've also been told I'm remarkably blunt. Sometimes people actually find that refreshing.
andblockbuster: (I don't wanna hear about your cat.)

[personal profile] andblockbuster 2012-10-01 05:17 pm (UTC)(link)
I think we're gonna get along just fine.
