Daniel sat looking solemn around the bar, a recent recounting of the first time he died made him think of his wife. Ten years had gone bye and he still hurt to think about her. A cup of coffee lay forgotten at his elbow.

They young man caught his attention. Sometimes you don't know why, but people just do that, its not like there is anything odd about the guy that he can see. Maybe, its a vestige of his ascended state. WHo knows.

Daniel moved to see what the guy was looking at, "That's interesting."

Daniel feels a little odd to Odd, too, not that Odd would mention it. He's very polite about such things.

"That's what I thought in the beginning, too," Odd says with a small smile.

Re: ODD diehard_daniel April 23 2009, 02:44:01 UTC

"What is it?" asked Daniel, "I mean what building is it of?"

His smile is a little forced.

"It's the station I work at. It used to be a big animal research complex, but it's been unmanned for years."

And now Odd's job is to clean it out.

Re: ODD diehard_daniel April 23 2009, 02:55:47 UTC

"What do you do there?" asked Daniel.

Re: ODD odd_passenger April 23 2009, 02:59:20 UTC

"Housecleaning," Odd replies dryly.

Re: ODD diehard_daniel April 23 2009, 03:01:26 UTC

"Sounds like fun," said Daniel sarcastically, "Do you find anything interesting there?"

The last part was genuine.

Re: ODD odd_passenger April 23 2009, 03:02:35 UTC

"Just a lot of old medical supplies and research stuff. The technology is impressive, but I don't have the training to use it."

Re: ODD diehard_daniel April 23 2009, 03:12:47 UTC

"Sometimes that kind of thing is fascinating," said Daniel.

Re: ODD odd_passenger April 23 2009, 03:14:17 UTC

"It was at first, but now it's getting kind of monotonous. They sent me a grill, though, so that's all good."

What? Grilling is a comforting exercise.

"One of my best friends fishes in a lake without fish," said Daniel.

Re: ODD odd_passenger April 23 2009, 16:55:56 UTC

"I'm sure he leads a very relaxed life."

Re: ODD diehard_daniel April 23 2009, 21:05:47 UTC

"Yeah, when he's taking it easy," said Daniel, "He's working in DC right now."

Daniel grimaced, "I would never want to do that."

Re: ODD odd_passenger April 24 2009, 03:14:05 UTC

"Work in DC? Or fish in a lake with no actual fish?"

Re: ODD diehard_daniel April 24 2009, 03:24:51 UTC

"Work in DC," said Daniel, "I can barely stand the red tape I deal with on a daily basis at CHEYENNE MOUNTAIN."

Re: ODD odd_passenger April 25 2009, 04:01:58 UTC

"Government?" Odd asks sympathetically. He's never seen a government job that looked fun.
