002; Voice

[thatsaflaregun]

[When Desmond's voice comes over the line, he sounds.... Crazy, so it's basically a Tuesday, except maybe you ought to listen to him this time, because this sounds extremely important.]

All right, look- [Muffled, as if said to someone behind him.] Get off, I'm fine! [Back to the comm] I don't know if anyone's even considered trying to pilot the Scylla, because believe me, it sounds like a lovely idea. But don't. There's a-a dead man's switch embedded in the flight controls. If anyone touches it- [He pauses to chuckle under his breath- it sounds crazy, but also painfully exasperated] - boom.

[He hesitates for a moment, as if already anticipating the protests.]

Don't believe me- send someone from flight crew to check it out. I know what I saw- [He hisses- goddammit, he needs to keep that shit under wraps better] I just know. 

[[OOC: POSTED WITH MOD PERMISSION. Basically, as of this log, Desmond will have had one of his flashes (which are now back thanks to his adventures in the ship- thanks for that, TQ). I need a couple volunteers to tag in and be witnesses to the discovery of the dead man's switch and Desmond's subsequent freak out, but yeah, as of this post, anyone who was on the Scylla probably would have heard Desmond being Final Destination about not touching the switch.]]

Oh, please. Do not even try that 'I've done a whole lot of things I'm not proud of' war movie thing-- [ her imitation is... not superb mostly it's just raspy ] on me, because you know the whole Star Wars crawl and you give pedicures. I've got your number now.

And what are you planning to do with that number, exactly?

[ What else do you know, Jenna. ]

Not really any of your business.

Oh, completely none of my business. But I'm from smalltown Virginia, that's the kind of business we love best.

[ You can't see him rolling his eyes. ]

You're a right piece of work.

For your information, I've had a lot of...temporary jobs.

[ Yes that's what we're calling them today. ]

Comes with the territory. We had debutante balls.

[ not that jenna ever attended any of them, but details. ]

Uh-huh. So if I asked for a pedicure, you'd say...

I'd say: Have you ever had your toenails polished with a Beretta?

[ Grumble grumble. ]

Carolyn's my boss.

[ LOL no that's not it. ]

I kind of thought you'd say that. Which means you like her.

...and I don't mean 'like her as a friend'.

[ beat. ]

Or a boss.
