The Elder Luke's room, for the elder Tyler Marlocke

Oct 01, 2008 21:33

The elder Luke's room, being newly occupied, has not had time to collect much. In fact, its main indication of occupancy is the Luke Lump on the bed.

Said Lump is, in fact, awake, in that he is semi-conscious and could be roused to a state of 'more conscious', if necessary.

"LUUUUKE! GET UP GET UP GETUP!"

Tyler the elder is now shaking the Lump awake in a frantic hurry.

Don't ask how he got in, just be glad he did.

AUGH!, the Lump is trying to say.

It comes out more like "Wha?"

Same dif.

"Luke, get up and get moving, now, and I do mean now." Tyler is checking the closet over for gear to take back, he can't stop back at the lair too much of a chance-- oh shit the mushroom samples. "Get your stuff, you can puke at your home universe later."

The closet just contains what Luke came in; mostly standard-issue UNIT and not much of it particularly helpful in a fight. Scientific Advisors aren't supposed to be in the thick of things, don'tchaknow.

At any rate, Luke's brain is waking up the rest of him, hurried by Tyler's tone. This may or may not be fast enough for Tyler's liking, given lingering dizziness etc.

"What happened?"

tyler_marlocke October 2 2008, 01:58:05 UTC

"Oh a fourteen-year-old YOU just stumbled in through the door whimpering with massive head pain, so I think out chances of backstepping into our own past have now draaassstically gone up." Tyler replies, throwing a bag with Luke's things to him. "Including the chances of the other me showing up, so I'm going to run to the Lair and get those mushroom samples I brought for you."

He catches it, amazingly. Possibly his hands are a little bit faster to wake up than the rest of him, or something.

There is a slightly disbelieving and confuuuuused "That was you?"

Massive head pain does not do wonders for the memory, y'see. Even if it is eidetic.

"Yes, it seems that within 24 hours of each event, I carried your ass to safe haven." Tyler would like to know WHY HIS TIME TRAVEL EVENTS HAPPEN IN TWOS. "I handed you, that is the you of 10 years ago to Dr. Guppy who is now taking care of you in the infirmary."

born_running October 2 2008, 02:08:54 UTC

Blink.

"Thank you."

Yes, he is aware of the implications and the possible timeline-crossing.

Regardless, it had to be said.

tyler_marlocke October 2 2008, 02:14:38 UTC

"...you're welcome."

After poking his head out the door quickly for a moment.

"Right, this way," Satisfied that the coast is clear in this hallway, it's time for an all out run down the hall. "238, 238, 238..."

born_running October 2 2008, 02:19:43 UTC

Luke... will just be following wherever, yes.

(It's not like he doesn't run.)

(A lot.)

(It's practically in the job description.)

tyler_marlocke October 2 2008, 02:22:49 UTC

That's good, just ah...look the other way while Tyler breaks into his own room, will you? He didn't have time to grab the key earlier.

"Winston, SIT. STAY. GOOD BOY." The orders to a very bewildered mini-raptor are given rapidly and with remarkable obiediance as the two rush through the room and into the Mare Obscurum. "Right...watch the monitors for any signs of the younger me wandering about...tidy up the cot..."

Oh yes, picture of Not!panicking this one.

born_running October 2 2008, 02:28:07 UTC

Because Luke has never broken into anything before.

Nope.

Not a thing.

Still a little bit behind on things, Luke does both at once! Oh the multitasking.

(And this is why he got a room separate from his younger self's, Tyler.)

tyler_marlocke October 2 2008, 02:30:34 UTC

(Does your seperate room come with built-in surveillance and a biometric tongue-scanning lock, Luke?)

"Right, as it was when I got here." Snatching up the case with the 2 samples of mushroom of doom. "Got the mushroom samples, secret door's this way."

born_running October 2 2008, 02:32:36 UTC

(No. But on the other hand? Luke is not as paranoid.)

He's following!

He's also wondering if the room came like that or if Tyler had it put in.

tyler_marlocke October 2 2008, 02:35:09 UTC

(...He's paranoid for a reason.)

One moment Tyler is there, the next there is a hole in the floor leading down into a metal slide.

Time for the fun ride!

born_running October 2 2008, 20:38:56 UTC

(Admittedly.)

BWARK

THIS IS NOT DOING HIS INNER EAR ANY GOOD, TYLER, YOU COULD AT LEAST HAVE WARNED HIM.
