[...there's a second of white noise, because-- well, this is weird. It's like online chatrooms, which Mitchell has never been keen on, to say the least. One on one communication hasn't been so bad--better, actually, considering he's been mostly holed up in his room, avoiding human/werewolf contact. But, right--necessity--]
If people are going t' go through those tubes and get onto that other ship, do their phones keep on working? These devices, I mean. Do they go that far? If they do, and if this can be heard over there, I'm making a request. Space pirates had to have cigarettes on them, yeah, and I'm in need of cigarettes. Sanctioned looting can include a bit of personal stuff, yeah-- and it's sort of a, a desperate need. Please and thanks in advance.
[Like very desperate. Like the more he talks about it, the more strained his voice goes. Vampires with nicotine addictions, it's a hard life. A pause, then, he might finish there--but instead he sucks in a breath. Right. Normal.]
Actually, there's a lot of questions on how things work around here, and not all of it is out of our control. Like--so there's a cast of, what, a hundred plus of us, and we have t' trade for things that we need, if someone else has got them. But if you don't have anything t' trade, is it just-- begging for it? Hoping for a bit of Christian charity? Every man for himself? Not that I'd be much surprised by that one, given the... [Maybe it's better not to finish that one, in light of recent events, but given his low faith in humanity, and given his own recent exploints, none this is really all that surprising. So, wry once more:] ...given the situation.
[An awkward pause.]
Anyways. Thanks again.

You can't tell someone to stay away from you and then joke like you're mates. You make a man rather confused.

That was-- a weird time.

[AN AWKWARD PAUSE. He doesn't need to explain himself to a werewolf, of course, but...]
I'm sort of, a, um. Reclusive. Usually. So wakin' up like that, it was-- unnerving.
no subject
It's rather unnerving no matter how extroverted you are, I expect. Are you better adjusted now?
no subject
I'll be better once I get my hands on those cigarettes. But yeah, generally I'm... all right. Not as if I've got much of a choice.
