118 - Emmett Honeycutt [video]

[fetchdixon]

(Emmett has decided it's time to try and feel useful again, and what better way to do that than to get friendly with the new guys. Social butterfly is a go!

He appears on the feed with a friendly smile and a wave. ) Hello newbies

Heh, you sound pretty damned cheerful. Kinda odd, given the situation. You been here a long time, I take it?

An' I'm Reno, just so ya know. One of them newbies you were talkin' about.

[fetchdixon]

Hi Reno!

(Emmett stops as he realises Reno doesn't remember him and decides to just take it like they've never met)

Oh, erm, yeah I've been here about sixteen months - I try an' stay as cheerful as possible to piss off the Consortium mostly.

How you findin' it?

[red_hot_lover]

[He picks up on the fact that Emmett's greeting was just a little too familiar, but decides not to say anything about it. He's already been informed that he's been here before, but given that he remembers nothing, it seems too confusing to think about]

Fuck, that's a long time. I like your attitude, though...when life gives ya lemons you gotta get the hell on with it an' make lemonade, yeah?

Well, could be worse, I guess. Could be a whole lot better, but it could be worse.

[fetchdixon]

It's ok here once you've learnt all the survival techniques.

The trick is to make lots of friends, 'cos they're the only thing that keeps you sane 'round here. That, an' there are times you'll need them when you're in trouble.

Also, try not to piss anyone off, 'cos you don't know what kinda weird powers they might have or if they might be totally twisted fucks, so if you've got nothin' nice to say don't say anythin' at all.

If you get knocked down, get back up, it's the only tool of defiance we have at our disposal an' it's not somethin' the Consortium bastards can take away. Keep smilin' an' keep goin' not matter what.

[bado_nails]

Fuck Em, I'm glad ta be back here too.

Was gettin' kinda tired of the constant destruction, ya know?

[fetchdixon]

I don't know... it's weird.
Kinda feels like this is home now in a strange way.

Obviously I don't feel safe here exactly... but I feel, like, ... secure I guess.

Hows things with you an' Hermes? I saw you two on your 'cigarette break'.

[bado_nails]

Yeah, I kinda feel the same way. As wrong as it is to call this shit hole 'home.'

Uh.. Ha-ha..ha... [He scratches the back of his head in embarrassment.] Ya saw that, did ya?

Um... good? I'm not really sure what ta call it. So it's hard ta gauge how it's 'going'. [He frowns a little in thought. It was a little complicated now that he thought it.]

[fetchdixon]

Hmm...

Seems everyones havin' flings at the moment, it's real cute.
I'm happy for you, I really hope it works out.

(and it's true, but also painful)

[eugene_watson]

Hey.

[Gene doesn't look very good but he tries to smile.]

[fetchdixon]

(a concerned expression)

Christ hunny... you look like shit....

[eugene_watson]

Is it that obvious? Damn...I'm hurting all over and I've been shot four times. Is that thing gone?

[He's referring to his evil twin. He hated seeing that side of him and he knew it was there before just he's never seen it until now and it bothered him.]

[private]

[fetchdixon]

... yeah... I saw that...

(Emmett tries to push away the memories of seeing Gene shot, they're too painful)

Yeah it's gone... they're all gone.
Mine tried to rape Sasha, I managed to find him before he did any damage though. I hate those things...

Do you want me to come see you? Do you need anythin'? Don't make me worry about you, sweetie...

[turtleterrorist]

Thank you for the offer, but I seem to have an excellent support network in place already.

I simply need to begin searching for a way out.

[lovepassionbaby]

[Have a depressed-looking young lady. =( ]

I could really use a friend right now...

[video]

[fetchdixon]

Well I'm Emmett, it's nice to meet you.

If you wanna talk I'm right here, sugar. Do you like ravioli?

[video]

[lovepassionbaby]

My name's Nana. It's nice to meet you, too.

Ravioli? I think I had that once, a long time ago...

[fetchdixon]

I've got some stored from the last time we were sent away from this place, it's cold but it's better than the nutrition bars anyway.

(shh he's modest, he's an amazing cook)

I can bring you some if you like? Or you can come have dinner with me, which ever.
