Hi, everyone.

As foreman of the section of the factory responsible for producing canned beets, I'm pleased to announce that we've pretty much got things covered for the rest of the week. I think we're about 2000 cans of beets over where we need to be. In light of your hard work over the last few months as members of the ( Read more... )

Hi, Mr. Netherlands. What do they have you doing now?

windmill July 7 2010, 03:16:22 UTC

Repairing 2000 pairs of shoes. Like fuck I'm gonna do it.

You okay?

a_gentle_boy July 7 2010, 03:20:05 UTC

Yours might be even more impossible than mine. I don't think there are even 2000 pairs of shoes in this town.

. . . I'm OK. Um. Mostly. . . . Can I ask you a question?

windmill July 7 2010, 03:26:58 UTC

Doubt it. There's not even 2000 of us.

Ja. Of course.

. . . . .

Do you remember, um. Everything I told you about my world? About that person who came? A-And how he . . . did all of that stuff?

[fail filter] windmill July 7 2010, 03:35:04 UTC

...Yeah. Of course I do.

[fail filter] a_gentle_boy July 7 2010, 03:35:40 UTC

. . . He's here.

[fail filter] windmill July 7 2010, 03:37:03 UTC

What? You're kiddin' me-

[fail filter] a_gentle_boy July 7 2010, 03:43:49 UTC

. . . No. It's him. He's not the same as he was when I met him, but it's still him.

I don't know what to do.

[fail filter] windmill July 7 2010, 03:50:23 UTC

...I'll help you. Whatever you need to do. We're equals in this stuff, remember?

[fail filter] a_gentle_boy July 7 2010, 03:59:03 UTC

Is it fair to hate him for something he hasn't done yet? He said . . . He said he would try to change. He said he doesn't really want anyone to die.

But I don't know. . . . What if he's just lying to me? Because the Porky I know would think that was hilarious. And I don't think I could deal with it again.

[fail filter] windmill July 7 2010, 04:01:00 UTC

Even if he says that, don't trust him. You know you can't, right?

[fail filter] a_gentle_boy July 7 2010, 04:07:33 UTC

No. I can't trust him. I don't know if I ever can. I don't even know if I should.

But Mr. Netherlands . . . What about the things I believe? That people are really worth saving, that they are good, that no matter what, I wouldn't lose the important things like friendship and kindness and love . . . But if I hate Porky, then . . .

Oh hi, isn't it great this is public due to communist paranoia? godisachild July 7 2010, 04:23:03 UTC

[Yeah, he's been listening in. Far as he's concerned, anything talking about him is his business.]

It means not everyone's worth saving, kid.

Sucks ass when you find out there are exceptions to what you believe, huh?

So. When should I expect you to make an announcement warning everyone about me and to either steer clear or keep an eye on me? Because honestly, when you do? Should probably at least try and filter it away from me.

a_gentle_boy July 7 2010, 15:26:55 UTC

[There is a heavy pause. Lucas's voice, when he resumes speaking, is completely flat with anger.]

Since the phone filters aren't working right now, we should talk about this some other time, Mr. Netherlands. Please be safe.
