13th Fix

Apr 21, 2011 13:22

[Today in class, Mr Hatch will be writing "VOTE FOR PROM QUEEN AND KING HERE" on the chalk board. There's a ballot box on his desk and some slips of papers. He's hung a sign or two in the hallways of the high school too advertising this, but don't expect Quinn to put *too* much work into this. Feel free to ask him questions, bother him, whatever ( Read more... )

Well most proms have a king and queen, right? So like, I figure we can do that too, and I'll keep track of the votes. People can start nominatin' themselves or other people if they want. I mean, it don't really mean much, but it'll be fun, right?

[ Totally skimmed over the prom stuff because she got here after the initial announcement about it being more than the high school. ]

Flatscreen from home? They give us tech from home too?

techno_mancer April 21 2011, 21:18:51 UTC

Yeah, they'll send ya whatever! Well, it ain't like ya get a choice. But so far, they sent me one of my laptops, my turntables and speakers, and of all things, my iPad. The DVDs too, of course. But these rinky-dink 50s TVs aren't gonna cut it.

ooeeooahah April 21 2011, 21:23:11 UTC

Turntables.

You have music? More than the approved stuff in the record store?

[ Don't be scared by that hungry tone of voice. Really, it's okay. ]

Darlin', I am the lucky owner of a laptop full of hundred of gigs of music of all varieties. Yours truly is a DJ on the side, and Mayfield was lovely enough to send me not only my collection, but my top-of-the-line, all-media-supporting Mixdeck turntable.

Television rots your brain, Quinn.

techno_mancer April 21 2011, 21:20:33 UTC

'S alright, man, I got plenty to spare. C'mon, man! Don't tell me ya don't like movies.

stardust_legacy April 22 2011, 08:25:35 UTC

I like movies. I hate TV.

techno_mancer April 22 2011, 15:53:48 UTC

I do like some TV shows, but I'm more of a movie man, too. I'm sure everyone here is sick of the same movies playin' at our theaters here and would love to see somethin' different. I just gotta find a way to make it accessible to everyone.

"I have Omoikane and his data module... I've gotten a holoscreen to about 6 by 4.5 meters.... As long as the movies are encoded as data he can probably play them."

techno_mancer April 21 2011, 21:46:00 UTC

Six... six meters? I... Ruri, if it weren't wrong on several levels, I would kiss you.

hontobakabaka April 21 2011, 21:47:03 UTC

"Um... Okay? Do you need something projected?"

techno_mancer April 21 2011, 21:49:41 UTC

Recently in the mail I got back several dozen DVDs sent from home. Yeah. this is... wow. We need to find a building or somethin' to project it on to...

[Chances are you've never heard Quinn so excited about anything.]

...I don't get it. Why are we voting for a king and queen?

techno_mancer April 22 2011, 07:03:16 UTC

I dunno, every prom has one. Mine did, so I figure, why not here?

striped_biceps April 22 2011, 07:09:45 UTC

Shouldn't something like that be decided by bloodline?

techno_mancer April 22 2011, 07:12:22 UTC

[Sorry Cyuss, he can't help but laugh at that.] No man, it's just an honorary thing. More just a popularity contest than anythin'.
