003 ☼ video

[Flynn has taken his journal up to the deck and at this point, has somehow more or less figured out how to get the video function working without making a complete derp of himself. He's badass like that. So, you're getting a lovely view of the deck, specifically focusing on all those stars hanging out in the black, narrated by Flynn, who sounds a little self satisfied and smug through the whole thing.

Apparently he's adjusted to the whole I'm stuck here now thing pretty well, after the initial OH GOD WHY, anyway.]

You know, I could get used to a view like this.

I mean, once you get over the horrible feeling of what on earth is this thing floating on, it's actually pretty nice! All sorts of stars, that weird... well, whatever it is we're traveling on. Way better than anything I would have had in prison back home, let me tell you. Not to mention the whole probably getting executed and not really getting to enjoy whatever I could see for long anyway thing, although I guess I'd have just wound up here a little later than I already did.

Not that I'm totally enjoying myself here or anything, but it's got a couple perks. [And raising his voice a little, his tone become a mite more obnoxious:] Could do without being babysat every day of the week though, thanks Admiral. I'm a big boy, I can take care of myself for a few hours without a warden, without something going terribly wrong.

Crazy, I know, but you've got to give us all the benefit of the doubt sooner or later.

[Filtered away from Kirk]

Speaking of which.

So. Kirk. Anything I should know about him before I get any further in this "redemption" [Fingerquotes.] process?

I think I would be a lot more concerned about you if you couldn't last without me.

[tooscaredtoask]

I would be too.

[captain_jtkirk]

Is the most you've done is conquer the deck?

[tooscaredtoask]

What do you mean?

[captain_jtkirk]

What have you been up to?

[tooscaredtoask]

Nothing exciting.

What have you been up to?

[captain_jtkirk]

Not much either.

I'm going to take my dog for a walk, would you like to come with?

[tooscaredtoask]

... Sure. [Why. :|]

[captain_jtkirk]

[To spend time with you dope] Great, we'll stop by.

[tooscaredtoask]

[Well it's not like he was going to be doing anything today anyway.] Okay.

[Besides conquering the ship right? Whatever, Kirk's here now. Fun's over.]

[tooscaredtoask]

[Hey, he's very well behaved when it comes to that stuff. He wants to get out, but he's not going to be throwing in with groups like that either.] "So, where are we going?"

Re: spam

[captain_jtkirk]

"Have you been to the CES?"

[tooscaredtoask]

"No. It's locked."

Re: spam

[captain_jtkirk]

"You need a Warden to get in."

[tooscaredtoask]

"Well, then it's a good thing I have you." [Not said at all obnoxiously. ... Wait. Not, the opposite of that. :|a

Still, he is gesturing for you to lead on, Kirk.]

Re: spam

[captain_jtkirk]

[Jim smirked at him for that, and started walking towards the CES.]

[tooscaredtoask]

[And Flynn is just following. He is not super awesome at casual conversations with prison wardens that aren't scathing, so.]

So, is there a reason the door's locked?

[notafuckingnut]

...You mean space?

[tooscaredtoask]

And the river of stars that's over the edge.

[notafuckingnut]

Over the edge of what? There's no edge, it just goes on forever.

[tooscaredtoask]

The edge of the ship.

[notafuckingnut]

Yeah. It's called space.

[...This conversation is just going to go in circles forever, isn't it.]

[tooscaredtoask]

[Flynn is just taking the journal over to the actual railing and holding it out over the edge, so the camera gets a shot of the actual weird stars/realities/whatever it is the Barge is sailing on. River of stars is pretty much the best way to describe it.]

That's what I'm talking about. It's different from the rest of the stars.

[notafuckingnut]

...Whoa. Weird.

[Yeah, he'd never bothered to actually look before.]

But it's still just space.

[tooscaredtoask]

If you say so, pal.

[officerrenaldi]

...It is kind of a nice view. [One of the few things nice about this place.] I keep wanting to chuck a baseball over the side though and see what happens.

[tooscaredtoask]

Do you have more than one?

[sixthanimorph]

Wow. If I had to put a picture in the dictionary for 'douchebag' your grinning mug would be perfect.

[This is David's way of saying welcome to the Barge, new guy. :c]

[tooscaredtoask]

I'll take that as a compliment.

[sixthanimorph]

You look like the kind of guy who would.

[tooscaredtoask]

I have an attractive jawline.

[sixthanimorph]

You mean you have the jawline of a Dutch porn star.

[meanstwin]

It's... I look out and I've never seen anything like it. But I still haven't looked down.

[tooscaredtoask]

How long have you been here?

[meanstwin]

... not long. It's so different I don't know where to start.
