I did contact a few people upon my return yesterday, mostly those who'd left messages for me upon my departure. I didn't mean to put off addressing the Barge in general so long.

Words are not enough for apologies, but only time will reveal action. I would like to ask for that time. I don't quite yet know how to proceed to get Dracula and me back on ( Read more... )

[Armand is visibly upset, especially to anyone who knows him well. He won't look at the camera, but he seems to be keeping his voice calm, but maybe a little monotone, like he's rehearsed this.]

I tried to request this before, but I was in no fit shape to communicate. Is there anyone on board with the technical expertise to make a language ( Read more... )

[private to Loki]

I'm not your warden, but I'd like a word with you.

[locked to Armand's friends]

I talked to our new Captain Harkness.

I'm thrilled to have my English back. [Armand laughs nervously.]

Thank you very much, Monsieur Wooster--or should I call you Bertie? I never can remember--for trying to look after me. I hope I wasn't too much trouble. I don't remember causing much trouble...

How many people did the Barge rob of proper communication skills for this one? I hope I wasn' ( Read more... )

[Armand is moving in and out of the range of the camera as he's putting various things away in his cabin. When he can be seen, he's wearing loose blue cotton trousers, a thin cotton shirt and a straw hat. His skin is darker, tanned, and a little wind-burned, and his hair shorter but still long enough to tie back though it's down at the moment. He ( Read more... )

[He seemed more agitated than even his usual video-post nerves.]

I see that Captain Harkness has made his announcement. I will confirm that I am going with him for a while. I will be back, although I don't know how long I'll be gone. I've made arrangements for Madame Owens to take charge of the gardens. She'll probably be better at it than I would ( Read more... )

Has anyone seen Jack Harkness since the flood? I saw him very briefly during it, and he wanted privacy. But I haven't seen him since.

[private to Martha]

I don't supposed you've heard anything? I'm going by his room. I might need a crowbar.

[He's trying to keep his gaze on the camera. Margot's hair is everywhere, a huge mass of curls.]

I might need some help with this. I don't think a ribbon is going to be adequate.

At least my clothes still fit. Sort of.

[spam a little later]

[Hair kind of tamed and wearing a shirt, vest and trousers with no shoes, Armand goes to find Jack Harkness's ( Read more... )

[background noises of the chaos still in the dining room when Armand is there a little later in the incident]
Jack? Captain Harkness, are you well? I have to look after my inmate, but I want to know you're not in the middle of this... chaos. [He sounds beyond worried. Frantic maybe.]

Please God, don't let Jack be in here.

[filtered to the infirmary ( Read more... )

Monsieurs Maguire and Iroh, I have some vegetables for the kitchen: almost the last of the lettuce, some green onions, a few lovely tomatoes, sweet peas in the pod and a few pounds of beans. Should I bring them by today?

[private to Jack Harkness and Martha Jones]

I'm going to work in the gardens today. I promise to let you know if anything goes ( Read more... )
