-30- [From Zero]

[captain_vidal]

This is not what I had expected.

(ooc: Vidal's in Zero for kidnapping and torturing Jack and trying to kill Armand and yeah -- most of his death toll got shaken off during the flood. Now he's pacing his cell and knocking his knuckles against the bars as he passes them. He has been doing this for HOURS.)

You didn't expect to be in Zero after that?

[boeshane_boy]

Did you know that in our world, he spent a year torturing me?

[captain_vidal]

I did not. This does not explain why you chose to bring me back.

[boeshane_boy]

I'm not done explaining, Vidal.

There was a port where I forgot who I was, and the Master tried to torture me again. And I brought him back. [Though that was mostly to kill him again.]

You had a couple days with me. That's three hundred and sixty shy of me considering not bringing you back to berate.

[captain_vidal]

You are a victim, Captain.

And we will finish soon enough.

[boeshane_boy]

You're the kind of guy who likes his categories, Sergei, and that's fine. People learn, eventually. But thinking of my as a victim isn't going to do you any favors.

[captain_vidal]

Then perhaps you should not invite yourself to it. I stand by what I say. I should not be here.

[boeshane_boy]

So what do you want to be? Dead?

[captain_vidal]

What I want is irrelevant. It is how things should be.

[boeshane_boy]

Then how should it be?

[captain_vidal]

How it should be.

[boeshane_boy]

You're as useful as one of those tiny drink umbrellas in a downpour.

[captain_vidal]

At once all both of you stop making sense.

[boeshane_boy]

Tell me how you think it should be, Vidal.

[captain_vidal]

After the three hundred sixty days you will know.

[boeshane_boy]

Don't expect me to stick around your cabin for it.
