24 - Gabriel - Video

[hung_garian]

[Gabriel looks a little uncomfortable when he pops up on screen. The pain's not even that bad, but to anyone who knows him, it shouldn't be a surprise to discover that he's still a huge baby about the mildest discomfort.]

I'm sure we're gonna be inundated with complaints about this before long if it is an experiment, buuuuut... all you people with

[Much as he hates to do be anything resembling helpful in regard to you Gabe, this is worrying him a little and so he'll bite]

...mine ache. Kind of a lot, at the joints.

[A stiff shrug]

Which I'm way too fucking young for.

[hung_garian]

Arthritis kicking in already, kiddo? For shame. That's whatcha get for walking around with no shirt on, I suppose.

[In a similar but entirely different way, Darc, Gabriel is willing to overlook the seriousness of the situation and the pain in his back in order to poke fun at you.]

Shut up, it's not fucking funny. Anyway, if you have any idea how to get a shirt on over all this I'd be fucking surprised. [Gesturing to those aching wings of his, and the spikes on his shoulders]

[hung_garian]

Get someone to knit you wing-gloves. And you could put tea cosies over your spikes.

[doubtheaven]

This is really uncomfortable.

[video]

[hung_garian]

Bummer. Guess it is a test, then.

[video]

[doubtheaven]

This is unnecessary. We already have wings.

[video]

[hung_garian]

So there are new ones growing, then. Wonderful.

[He rolls his eyes.]

Maybe these'll be 'special' wings. With sparkles and glitter and all that crap.

[featheryasshole]

Yeah, my wing's aching too. And it feels like there's something going on in the spot where the other one used to be, too.

[hung_garian]

I guess it's not just a coincidence, then. Well, that's perfect. This doesn't sound at all like it's going to end horrifically.

[featheryasshole]

Looks like they really love fucking with wings here. Still, I doubt it can turn out as bad as last week.

[hung_garian]

Tell me about it. They're friggin' obsessed.

[He rolls his eyes.]

Less bloody, hopefully.

[doctorsoldier]

[See John stare. Mostly out of abject confusion on the 'wings' and then the 'magical flying ponies' parts of that.]

I'm not...a veterinarian or anything, but I do know muscle spasms. I've been having them too, right over my shoulder blades.

[hung_garian]

[Have some momentary confusion, as Gabriel realises (apparently for the first time) that yeah, the chances of the experiment only affecting those with wings? Not likely.]

And you're a normal human, physically at least. Huh. I'm not gonna lie to you, Johnny, that doesn't sound promising. Unless you just put your back out - you been doing any heavy lifting? Hauling sacks of scones around like a very English Santa Claus'll do that.

[doctorsoldier]

[He's trying to be serious, not half grin at the idea of Santa hauling around sacks of scones for all the good little tea drinking boys and girls of England.]

So this is what that document meant by experiments? They've given everyone shoulder pain?

[hung_garian]

Oh, it'll get worse.

[Said with the absolute certainty of a defeatist, a pessimist and, judging by the oddly chipper tone in which he says it, a masochist.]

[indevilsclaws]

Mine are starting to ache, right where they sprout from the skin.

[She gives a self-righteous sniffle, shaking her shoulders so her rather visible pair of bat wings shake.]

[hung_garian]

Yep. Sounds like that's pretty much the norm, sweetheart.

[Have a possibly-sympathetic sort of grimace.]

If it's any consolation, it doesn't seem to be limited to just us with wings.

[indevilsclaws]

[She scoffs.]

"Us"?

And what do you mean? Everyone else is having the same problems?

[hung_garian]

Yeah, us. As in the first person plural. And I can't speak for everyone, but everyone I've spoken to? Yeah.
