[Malcolm's been in the library for a while with his laptop, reading any posts and communiques that went up publicly overnight, responding to posts, and occasionally trying, with no success, to get some kind of news from his home world. His Blackberry lies on the table next to him.]

[Oh, fantastic, it's the creep from 1984. Malcolm waves a hand dismissively.]

It was fucking lying here when I got here.

[For Malcolm, that wasn't "swearing at". It was "swearing near" and it was his default mode-which was to say that he didn't even notice he'd done it.]

You call everyone that?

Why's that? Not like anyone here's gonna rap your fucking knuckles if you don't.

[Why the hell was he talking to the creep? Well, it was something to do, and actually he was genuinely curious about the whole "comrade" thing.]

'Cept, doesn't "comrade" imply some sort of ... being on the same fucking side, or something like that?

[Jesus fuck, this bastard makes Malcolm's head hurt. He frowned a little, trying to remember the book-he hadn't read it since he was in secondary school.]

Isn't there some other group, though? People that aren't Party? What're they called?

Right, right. So, yeah, proles. They're not Party, but they fucking exist, yeah? How's that work?

[He's not actually trying to fuck with O'Brien; it's just sort of ... happening.]

[Malcolm listens to the whole explanation with a kind of ... slightly appalled amusement. Then he nods.]

Sounds like your typical fucking X-Factor viewer.

[Yes, he knows the reference will be lost on the fictional totalitarian apparatchik from a 1984 that never existed. No, he doesn't care.]
