There's something to be said for the truth setting you free. In my case, I think I can safely say that I'm never going to feel embarrassed again. I'm just glad to have my brain-to-mouth filter back.

[LINEFACE.] Enjoy yourself?

You weren't affected, were you.

[BACKDATED TO DURING/RIGHT AFTER SEXBY'S KILLING SPREE.][Arthur's breathing sounds short and pained, thanks to some broken ribs he's now sporting.  Due to the timing of all of this, he's totally missed out on all warden posts about Sexby's rampage, and thus has no idea there's anything going on.  WHOOPS ( Read more... )

Minimal death and destruction, no known curses carried back to the Barge, and I didn't get baked into any witches' pies or swallowed by wolves. [Or whatever it is that happens to sassy woodlands critters n fairy tales.] All in all, I'd say that was a good port. [Pause, then he makes a noncommittal "hm."] Despite being turned into a very ( Read more... )

[Talk about shitty timing for a flood. With things as rocky as they were with Perry, now was so not the time for the Admiral to throw another inmate at him. Arthur looked at his item, checking it for the, what, hundredth time, as he followed his instinct (or flood-mandated yearning for closeness) all the way to Alice Morgan. He'd seen her around ( Read more... )

Is it too late to get the Admiral enrolled in a driver's ed class? There, I did my requisite bitching for the day. I really feel like a part of the community now.

[Pause.]

Who's up for sparring?

And how are we doing today, kids? You know I love to check up on you.

All things considered, that wasn't half-bad. I would've liked to have kept the hat.

[Brief pause. HEY ARTHUR, THIS MIGHT BE CALLOUS CONSIDERING ALL THE FOLKS WHO GOT SHOT.]

I hope everyone who wasn't quite as lucky is doing better now. Maybe we'll get a few quiet weeks before the Admiral's drunk driving throws something else at us.

[What is Arthur doing-- oh god, he looks TOTALLY RELAXED AND CHILL.  He's actually grinning.  Granted, he's not a linefacing robot even without Adam's influence, but let's face it: regular Arthur rarely, if ever, posts to the network for open social calls.  The network is for business-- or, at least, it was.  As far as anyone knows, however, Arthur ( Read more... )

I know this defies all kinds of Barge superstitions, but I'm gonna come right out and say it: I'd kill for a port right now. Having missed the adventure into a post-apocalyptic wasteland, the last time I even left the boat was in January ( Read more... )

Dawsey's in Zero. I would draft up a report concerning the incident, but it looks like Crane has that covered.

If you have any questions, direct them to me in private.

[EDITED AFTER SEEING LOKI'S DOUCHERY:]
My inmate's off-limits to visitors. I'm going to be camping in Zero, so don't even think about trying.
