Issue #8 - Night of doom... Night of humiliation... NIGHT OF TACOS!

Oct 10, 2011 11:40

[Its been a long and horrible day for Mike, work was terrible, drones everywhere are giving him a headache but there was one single light at this all. There were tacos in the cafeteria, like actual real tacos. So he bought enough of them to feed a small army ( Read more... )

action, 1489 kramden road

[Olivier watches him for a moment as he walks in her direction.]

Fucking drones, always so damn happy.

[She really isn't fond of anything too cheery since Oktoberfest.]

You said it sister! But even after a day like today, there were tacos, so I can at least have a decent dinner.

flowers_suck October 11 2011, 07:06:55 UTC

[She just stares at him a moment.]

I'm not your sister, although you sound just as ridiculous as my brother. And I was referring to how chipper you seemed.

boostedfailure October 11 2011, 10:59:00 UTC

Its either be happy cause of a decent dinner for once... Or silently weep at the prospect of spending another day in this horrible place.

You pick your battles.

flowers_suck October 11 2011, 15:45:31 UTC

[She could appreciate that logic.]

I take it you've been here a long time.

boostedfailure October 11 2011, 16:16:31 UTC

Long enough. Too long I guess. I dunno, how to say exactly, but... Yeah.

flowers_suck October 11 2011, 16:37:14 UTC

Well, at least you can remember it.

[She will never get over the fact that she was here before and can't remember it.]

boostedfailure October 11 2011, 16:46:25 UTC

That... Is a very mixed blessing, and it could have been you from a different Earth. Near as I can tell there were at least 52 of them where I come from and each one was different in its own way.

flowers_suck October 11 2011, 16:59:37 UTC

[52 different Earths...she didn't even want to fathom that.]

I'd rather know what I did her before. So many people seem to have been drones since then...

boostedfailure October 11 2011, 18:01:23 UTC

Er, you ran a small army trying to get out and threw me off a cliff. Other than that I dunno.

flowers_suck October 11 2011, 18:24:46 UTC

Well, the small army part is something I would do, and still am going to do, and if I threw you off a cliff, I'm sure I had good reason.

[She's not that horrible, most of the time.]

boostedfailure October 11 2011, 18:56:19 UTC

.....Spent too much time as a drone and I commented about smiling and moving on.

[He takes a step back, as he's been there before even if this isn't a cliff]

flowers_suck October 11 2011, 22:08:53 UTC

I'm not going to throw you off a cliff. You've probably learned your lesson already.

Were you part of the resistance?

boostedfailure October 12 2011, 10:34:33 UTC

Nah, I was just getting a feel for the place. Then she got droned. I've had my work cut out trying to keep a few people safe and my sanity intact.

flowers_suck October 13 2011, 07:25:55 UTC

If the fighters work together, it'll be easier to keep those who can't fight safe.

boostedfailure October 13 2011, 10:29:56 UTC

That's the thing right there though. There was a lot of planning, tons of planning, just not a lot of doing. I never really needed a plan so just doing worked while all the planners planned their plans that uh... Never did.
