Chapter 10. Mind [ Voice. ]

Sep 02, 2009 19:44

[The audio turns on, but there is no immediate sound... even though it’s obvious that there is someone on the other end after a click or two. There is rummaging and the hollow sound of an instrument set up now, some shuffling as they sit down. Before long, there begins a guitar plucking to a songHe does falter a couple times. Tries out a test note ( Read more... )

[Sound comes through of a violin, sort of absently picking up the strains from the song -- someone figuring it out by ear. And it's a seriously nice damned violin.]

[ Voice. ] citygrit September 3 2009, 04:13:39 UTC

[And, of course, he's listening.]

Whay. Haven't heard one of those in years.

[ Voice. ] red_dust_rising September 3 2009, 04:19:25 UTC

[It stops.]

....ah. Shit.

Sorry. Didn't mean to be creepy about that. How was that thing even on.

[ Voice. ] citygrit September 3 2009, 04:22:08 UTC

I find that it turns on when you have the ON switch turned... on. Orsomethingalongthelinesofthat.

Er. Yeah.

It's fine. Just took me a moment to figure out where the noise was comin' from.

[ Voice. ] red_dust_rising September 3 2009, 04:23:45 UTC

....yeah, mine doesn't have an 'on' switch, it's a touchscreen, you just touch it. Must've elbowed it or something.

So.

Guitar, huh?

[ Voice. ] citygrit September 3 2009, 04:26:13 UTC

Ah. One I got here's a little more primitive, I guess. Don't even know where it came from.

Y-yeah, I played the guitar some. Friend back home taught me a thing or two, is all.

[ Voice. ] red_dust_rising September 3 2009, 04:32:36 UTC

Pretty sure it appears with you when you get here. But I'm from 2366, so plenty of reasons it'd be more advanced than yours.

Nice.

Yeah.

Played violin to pay my way through school. I gave lessons and such.

[ Voice. ] citygrit September 3 2009, 04:40:51 UTC

[Snort.]

2366? Those are some ancient numbers.

Lessons, huh? Well, that's a more honest method of payin' your way through school than mine, I'll give you that. Not that I flaunt it 'round with proud colors and all that.

[ Voice. ] red_dust_rising September 3 2009, 04:47:57 UTC

Yeah, I saved the dishonesty and violence for later in life.

Why, when are you from?

[ Voice. ] citygrit September 3 2009, 04:50:20 UTC

Was somewhere in between.

Eh. Far enough ahead where it don't matter to you. Or anyone, for that matter.

[ Voice. ] red_dust_rising September 3 2009, 04:52:33 UTC

...and who the hell knows if we're even from the same universe.

Hi. I'm Derek Rayne. Sorry. Don't know if we've spoken.

[ Voice. ] citygrit September 3 2009, 04:59:10 UTC

[He forces out a dry laugh.]

For anyone's sake, I'd rather hope not.

Alexander Wolfgang. Don't think we have. Then again, these past several weeks I've been kinda... cut off. From everyone else.

[ Voice. ] red_dust_rising September 4 2009, 02:47:41 UTC

Yeah? How come?

[ Voice. ] citygrit September 4 2009, 03:13:41 UTC

Er. Funny you should ask that.

Some giant robot fruit named Screamer and his lesbian life partner dropped me off in some fuckin' pineapple, and ain't been able to get out since.

[ Voice. ] red_dust_rising September 4 2009, 04:29:23 UTC

That's ..... weird.

[ Voice. ] citygrit September 4 2009, 04:46:25 UTC

Guy seems to be under the impression that I'm there to entertain him.
