[Sam probably hasn't been seen in days. Her apartment probably has a fine layer of dust on everything. She's probably miserable as hell ( Read more... )

A-ah, hello?

Are... are you all right?

[Video] talkstomuch September 15 2011, 18:58:19 UTC

[Sam glances at her watch and nods.]

I'm fine, just a little exhausted. I haven't slept in a few days.

[And not for the reasons he'd think.]

[Video] watching_seven September 15 2011, 20:12:38 UTC

Oh, that's no good... You should get some rest then. Do you need anything?

[Video] talkstomuch September 15 2011, 20:22:39 UTC

It's alright, I've had times where I didn't get any sleep for a week.

[She's quiet for a moment, thinking.] I would kill for some coffee.

[Video] watching_seven September 15 2011, 20:26:52 UTC

A week? Oh my... Well I don't think that's very healthy. You should still get some sleep if you can.

I...don't see how coffee would help, but I can prepare some for you, if you'd like?

[Video] talkstomuch September 15 2011, 20:33:45 UTC

Maybe not but sometimes, with my job, I just haven't got any choice. I will when I get to my apartment, and clean up whatever dust and dirt got into it.

I promise, it'll help. It's been a long few days. I've lost a lot of good men and women.

[Video] watching_seven September 15 2011, 20:42:06 UTC

If you need help with cleaning, I wouldn't mind assisting.

I'm sorry to hear that, though. Does...that mean you went home, then...? Ah, in any case, I'll get start on that coffee and bring it over.

[Video] talkstomuch September 15 2011, 20:48:28 UTC

It's alright, it's shouldn't be too hard. I'm used to cleaning up my place after a couple weeks at work.

It's horrible to say, but they knew what they were getting into. I'll contact their families next time I go home. And yes, I did. Thank you.

[Video] watching_seven September 15 2011, 20:54:25 UTC

Mm... Well if you say so.

Time passes differently for some people between here and home. It's unfortunate that they thought to bring you back- you must have been doing something important.

[Video] talkstomuch September 15 2011, 21:06:42 UTC

Trust me, I've had much worse messes to clean up. I used to have to clean up after my dad and brother when I was growing up.

It was, I'm the commanding officer of an entire base. And they're under attack.

[Video] watching_seven September 15 2011, 23:33:35 UTC

Ah, I see. [He smiles faintly at that.]

-so...you were in the middle of a battle of some kind? How terrible...

[Video] talkstomuch September 16 2011, 00:22:42 UTC

Not an entirely uncommon event, it happens in my line of work. I've spent the past twelve or so years in an out of combat situations.

[Video] watching_seven September 16 2011, 05:42:14 UTC

[Water's been set to boil, so now he's just going through the cupboard for that ground coffee.]

I see... I've never experienced anything of the sort, back home. The dragonlings and I have probably faced more dangerous situations here than we might ever have in Cohseltel, actually.

[Video] talkstomuch September 16 2011, 14:45:58 UTC

Really? I'm sorry you have to here then.

[Pause...]

Dragonlings?

[Video] watching_seven September 16 2011, 16:58:29 UTC

It's...all right. Those matters aside, I'm glad we've had the chance to meet everyone that we have, at least.

Yes, dragonlings. Seven of them are in my care, actually. We all arrived here together.

[Video] talkstomuch September 16 2011, 17:13:31 UTC

It's good to look on the bright side like that.

What exactly are dragonlings?

[Her world has murderous aliens but no dragons.]
