You know there are somedays where I just want to fucking shoot the lot of you.

Yes, we'll do Thanksgiving, we always have, we always will. Next week we'll put up a request board for food stuff. We're going to treat this as a home cooking thing rather than as an American thing. It's more fair that way.

[There's an amused looking young blond woman in Victorian clothes.]

Shoot me? But we haven't even met yet. Most people don't acquire such notions until after they've learned I'm a reporter.

[And there's an equally amused looking woman in a suit in return.]

You're a reporter?

Re: Video.

[ihumpedhoudini]

Ruby Ogden, of The Times.

And I must say: in all of my travels, I have never come across a telephone like this. I assume that's why it was left for me? I usually only write about important people, but this is quite the invention.

Ah. You know Georgie.

Re: Video.

[ihumpedhoudini]

George...ie.

Do you mean Constable Crabtree?

[you_run_i_chase]

Yep. Him.

[Parker grins in an amused way.]

He's a friend here.

Re: Video.

[ihumpedhoudini]

A very close friend, it sounds like.

[Is Ruby's face just a tiny bit frozen? Yes. She might cut you.]

[Have a laugh.]

Calm down, Victorian Barbie. Not like that. I'm his friend. I don't have any fucking designs on him.

Re: Video.

[ihumpedhoudini]

Oh. Of course it's none of my concern either way.

...Barbie?

[you_run_i_chase]

Uh huh. Yeah, I know that look all too well.

A doll from my time.

[ihumpedhoudini]

Your time? Are you purporting to be some sort of time traveler?

Did Bertie put you up to this?

[you_run_i_chase]

You're talking on a video, that's answer enough?

I don't know a Bertie you now, blondie.

Re: Private video.

[ihumpedhoudini]

You've never heard of H.G. Wells? He's quite famous.

Private video.

[you_run_i_chase]

Of course I have.

Re: Private video.

[ihumpedhoudini]

That's Bertie. He's a dear friend.

Private video.

[you_run_i_chase]

Yeah, he's from before my time as too.

No, I have no idea who the hell he is.
