[The video blinks on with an image much like this. A young man is confused, mostly naked save for a pair of dark maroon boxer briefs. His right hand flails about as it smacks the datapad, first accidentally. Then he hits it again with purpose and pulls it closer to him, poking at the buttons and the screen. His fingers keep coming back to the

[just a lot of staring. And snickering, but mostly staring. Or, sort of staring, considering the angle]

I'm sure some people might enjoy the view, James, but I definitely don't.

[untilallends]

[When a voice comes out of the datapad, James jumps backward. Then upon realizing who it sounds like, he drops to the floor and pokes his nose to the screen, staring at it intently from inches away.]

Is this view better? And why is your face like that?

[brokentorch]

[hm. That sounds awfully close to his room, you know. :|a all that talking and poking at the weird device]

You don't need to be quite so close. [Sirius pauses, rubbing his hand over the small scruff of beard he'd been growing in recently yay depression and alcohol! \o/] Like what? Devilishly handsome, you mean?

[untilallends]

[He flinches back when Sirius tells him he doesn't have to be so close.]

No. I mean, I can tell that you're you, but did you take an aging potion or what? And where are my clothes?

Is this some kind of prank you're pulling on me?

FUCK HIS FUCKING LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIFE

[untilallends]

Ahh! How do you turn this thing off? [James smashes his fingers all across the keys in an attempt to turn off the pad. Upon this failure he simply turns it upside down and buries it beneath the bedcovers.]

[doeswhathecan]

...the off button may provide the services you seek.

Don't start.

Were your clothes worth enough to be compensated for?

[untilallends]

Um yes. If my choices are any clothes at all or just my pants, I'm going to ask for clothes. I realize that this body shouldn't be covered up, but people have been known to die from hypothermia and I'm getting chilly.

[pathtosacrifice]

[pause. :|a] I've seen better.

You're not going to die from hypothermia here, so you can keep your paranoia. [She rolls her eyes] But if it bothers you that much, there are droids roaming around here that give out some clothes for people like you.

[untilallends]

Oh please. Like you'd kick me out of bed.

I may be in Loony Land right now so either I'm completely out of my element or just crazy. I have no idea what a droid is.

[off_beet]

Hello.

[untilallends]

Hello? Hello!

[off_beet]

I think you've figured out how to talk to it now.

[untilallends]

I have thanks to trial, error, and complete lack of shame.
