[video] First Experiment.

[When the phone clicks on, it is sitting on a table in one of Abax's upscale clothing stores, at about waist high, and tilted slightly upwards to show a wide shot of the rear of the store. Tesla is standing just off of center from the camera, in front of a floor length mirror, turned sideways from the screen. He's dressed in a pair of black dress ( Read more... )

[ Helen had been working, looking within and through Abax for solutions, or any information that she could find. It had been a month, a month by her best guess and it was tiring. There was little to go on from the start and even less that could be found by looking ( ... )

[Nothing can hide Tesla's triumphant little grin when Helen appears on the phone. Because it meant he was right, of course. Though the fact that she looked rather exhausted had him concerned, but he passed the comment up for now...Instead he held up a hand as if to wave her concerns away.]

I never lose my head, Helen, you should know that.

[He gives a little mock sigh, as if he's quite put-upon, really.]

So what did you get us into this time?

It occasionally makes me thankful.

[ Like right now, given that it would make things a little easier to explain ]

I'm not responsible for this.

Of course it does. You'd be lost without me, I'm sure.

[He doesn't appear to believe her, he just smirks as he starts walking out of the store he's in.]

Maybe not for the situation itself, I doubt even you could construct a massive, empty city...but I find it hard to believe you're not the reason we're stuck here.

[She doesn't look impressed, Nikola Tesla isn't a name she recognizes.] What makes you so special?

[Because to her he just looks like a smug, skinny twerp.]

[He looks just as unimpressed, of course.]

Ah, the uneducated masses begin to appear. I suppose I should have expected this. What makes me special? Well, do you enjoy electricity?

Because that was all me.

[Okay, not entirely true, but close, damn it. He's more than just a smug, skinny twerp. Maybe.]

[They can have a contest to see who can look more unimpressed!

Except he just called her uneducated, so she switches to glaring.]

So what? You're here to make my goddamn blender work again? [Her priorities, they are not right.]

Really? The inventor of electricity, the father of the modern age in a very real sense, stands before you in all his genius, and all you can think of is some way to make cocktails?

The Nikola Tesla?

[Biggest, most self-assured grin.]

Oh yes.

Well nothing you build here will work. [A sigh. You're pretty much useless right now.]

Now now, don't be like that. I've only been here a few hours, I've hardly had time to see what I'm working with.

[ He doesn't know who this is. He also doesn't care. ]

Oh, thank God you're here, we were all helpless and terrified. You are exactly who we were all waiting for.

See? Why can't more people understand the situation the way you do?

[Shit eating grin is go.]

Probably cause talking shit doesn't get you a warm welcome.

[ Trust him HE KNOWS. ]

I don't particularly need a warm welcome, though, so what do I lose?

So a mad man who thinks he's Tesla.

Who will they think to bring us next?

Really now, that's the best you can manage?

I assure you, I am who I say I am. Accept no imitations.

Care to prove it, then? Call me a skeptic.

teslitricity January 19 2012, 01:49:46 UTC
But of course, I do so love proving my identity to mysterious voices on the phone.

Oh wait. No I don't. Why should I?
