53 - Action/Phone

[ceasetoexist]

[The day after this delightful exchange, Pokey is understandably kind of on edge. And, being Pokey, he deals with that as well as one could expect.

Which is to say, extraordinarily poorly.]

Action - 502 Ricardo
[Hey not!family. Today you'll find Pokey searching and rummaging through every square inch in and around outside the house. And I mean every square inch. He is, quite paranoidly, looking in every cupboard, out every window, in every closet, and pretty much going everywhere he can in the house, searching. Whatever he's searching for, he doesn't seem particularly content with the results.

Which is why he's also searching around everywhere outside.

Over. And over. And over again. Just going over everything repeatedly, as if expecting something to pop out at him each time or something different to happen.]

Phone - Filtered from Black Mage

So. Alright.

Let's say you have pretty ample suspicion that someone is spying on and/or stalking you. Anyone got any good ideas on, you know, how to avoid it or catch the guy doing it? Like, you've never seen the person stalking you before for certain, but you know they're there?

I mean. Not that I have a problem. It's just kind of a question of interest.

Phone - Filtered to Slugger

The jerkwad knows my name and where I live and who I know.








Sorry.

Phone - Filtered to Mindy

Hey. Hey squirt. I really, really need you to answer this if you here me.

I need to know. Are you the only non-drone in your house?

Especially futures.

[He still doesn't fully know what he does in the future, but what he does know about it? He doesn't like it.]

Place honestly isn't so bad, if it wasn't for the people running it. It'd almost be a vacation.

I wonder what crap they'll throw at us next.

All expenses paid for. Only thing you have to do is reach for the soap when they want you to.

[ shrug. ]

Only one way to find out.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't so often.

Pretty much. Can't wait, especially after our trip through zombiemania.

Who could have thought a zombie apocalypse could suck?

phone;

[timetables.livejournal.com]

I thought it was a picnic.

Kinda fun. Always wanted to try that out.

phone;

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Lucky you.

Yeah, I did too. It was fun for awhile.

[timetables.livejournal.com]

Get bit?

phone;

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

No.

[He actually hasn't died since March. Which just makes him think he's probably due for one soon but what the hell. Doesn't matter til it gets here.]

My mech bit it, thanks to the Mage.

phone;

[timetables.livejournal.com]

Wait hold up how does that work.

phone;

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

The mage shot lightning and laser eyes at my mech and it tore it up pretty bad.

It's kinda straightforward. When you oversurge an electrical device with more electricity? Yeah kinda screws it up, not counting the force of them being actual lightning bolts. Magic lightning bolts.

Whatever.

phone;

[timetables.livejournal.com]

Sounds like it was pretty cool.

Except for the whole your mech exploded and that kinda sucks part.

phone;

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Yeah. That part was pretty awful.

[Pokey's a kid who generally likes explosions, But even he couldn't take any enjoyment from his mech getting blown apart.]

You came out of it better then I did from the sounds of it, I guess.

phone;

[timetables.livejournal.com]

I guess so. Aside from most of my friends becoming zombies and getting put down. That kinda sucked.

[ shrug. ]

Whatever. They got better.

phone;

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Isn't that how it goes.

We all get better here.

phone;

[timetables.livejournal.com]

Sorta makes things worse.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

It does.

[Especially when you see those who don't get better. But he isn't going to say that out loud.]

But there's something that sucks about every place you go. It just usually isn't constant death and coming back to life.

[timetables.livejournal.com]

It could be worse.

[ off the top of his head, he has no idea how, but hey it probably could be. ]

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

That's kind of a catch all.

No matter how bad things are looking, they can always head further south.

[timetables.livejournal.com]

Yeah when you look at it that way it's kind of a meaningless statement.

Then again what isn't.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Got me. Few things I found that aren't meaningless.

[timetables.livejournal.com]

That is hella depressing.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

I guess. Who cares?

What, do you just find meaning all around you or something?

[timetables.livejournal.com]

Shit I give things meaning just by being around.

My mere presence bequeaths it like a good damn meaning machine, granting purpose onto the aimless and direction to the lost.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Incredible. If I ever want to repent from my nihilistic ways, I'll make sure to find you and try to touch the fringes of your robes, hoping you'll lead me from my meandering path on to some greater form of knowing.

[timetables.livejournal.com]

Enlightenment doesn't come cheap bro, but I'll see what I can do. Maybe I've got a bit left to spare in an old pant leg.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Your charity and altruism is an inspiration to us all. I can't imagine where we'd be without you.
