Comments

For Corkscrewed

[thecompulsion]

I'm not walking up to the top floor to use the bathroom. And I am.

[concerned. about Tim.]

concerned about everyone else Tim is preventing from using the bathroom.

[corkscrewed]

It's not that long a walk.

[ that's- not the point, but okay, martin. ]

You want me to have a talk with him?

[thecompulsion]

Would you?

There are lost library assistants roaming around the halls. And would you...bring me me ....1-00921882?


[Please take pity on him Martin.]

[corkscrewed]

Which one is that?

[ he'll do it, it just might. take him a moment to find it. ]

[thecompulsion]

Will Sharpe. 1988.

I think.

I think it's an encounter with the eye. There's a statement I just

[was sent]

There's a statement that describes Will Sharpe and I know we have one. American. Some kind of former intelligence officer.

[that is a lot more information than he should know and he has to stop and think.]

Or I should go out and get ...something. To eat.

For goodcows

[thecompulsion]

It's naive of me I suppose.

I would like to just. Be able to ...do something else besides this. It's starting to get enjoyable.

[He doesn't want that]

For tapeleader

[thecompulsion]

It is not proclivity. It is simply a method of encouraging polite behavior. Mr. Rogers is someone we should all aspire to.

[tapeleader]

Do you see yourself as some kind of example of polite behavior? Really, Jon.

[thecompulsion]

I endeavor to do so when people respect my boundaries.

[Isn't that enough.]

Why would you say something like that anyway?


[He's not. well. you.]

[tapeleader]

You aren't exactly a picture of courtesy, ties and sweaters notwithstanding.

What horrible impropriety has you in such an awful twist?

[thecompulsion]

[He is an academic, not a fancy boss man. Reading that he snorts and entertains the idea of lying because sometimes he sees things and he could force Elias out of his head but...he couldn't.

It's the worst kind of catch-22. He has powers, but he can't pretend he doesn't have them he has to face them.]

We have a woman in the library who has perhaps one of the foulest rudest nastiest mouths I have ever heard. She's aiming to give you a run for your money in terms of abusing your employees.

[And what Elias might pick up on is that he was in his office and he saw this and it was jarring enough to be picked up on during a statement about the slaughter that it annoyed him.]

For witchimage

[thecompulsion]

[Oh no.]

My apologies. I meant to send this to my assistant. Our erstwhile...boss has left me with a number of people interrupting my work.

[witchimage]

Ah. I know the feeling.

No need to apologize, it just did not sound like the sort of affair that required anything more than a good shout. Which I CAN do, also, but is that really a favor you want to call in?

[thecompulsion]

[Tempting.]

No. Tim has been...

Tim hasn't been feeling well. And I should...be more of a leader about that. Speaking of favors though how are the books?

[witchimage]

And old books and pot are the relief? That IS familiar. Don't entertain that for long, it spoils them.

Oh, they're delightful. It really is a shame about the Key, but what you've given us is just wonderful.

[thecompulsion]

Tim is...a special case. He's in a lot of pain.

[And despite what he may think, Jon does care.]

Good.

[He's still amazed that Elias gave it to him. That he let them walk out with them but...]

The beholding wanted you to have them

Tim Stoker TFLN

[thecompulsion]

What do you mean, what I have in mind. What I have in mind is pure 1997 glam couture, boss.

[Hrmn. And there's an image sent back.]

Closest I might be able to field is something like this.

[efinita]

[ Like, not bad, but definitely not hitting the mark. ]

When we do medieval Spice Girls, then you can pull that out of your closet.

Side note: IS THAT SOMETHING YOU HAVE IN YOUR CLOSET.

[thecompulsion]

[This is why he doesn't associate with employees. Now to get angry or to own it?]

I have a life outside of work.

When I was in college I was in a folk band I have a number of costumes like this.

[efinita]

Do you??

[ Even his drunk imagination can't picture any reason for Jonathan Sims to have such...variety in his wardrobe. ]

All right, Spice Girls on hold, I NEED to know more.

[thecompulsion]

[Oh god.]

Tim, I really hope that this isn't going to interfere with our working relationship. I'm still your superior...

An attempt to control the fears - or at least bring back something of humanity's presence. More freedom for Avatars can be arranged.

I need allies.

[witchimage]

Are these things not mutually exclusive? How do you expect "avatars" to roam freely in a world meant to coddle humanity?

[ Which is not to say that she disagrees with his vision. ]

You're asking for help.

[thecompulsion]

By putting avatars in place that recognize we're all trying to prevent the extinction. We need humans to survive.

[His throat works.]

To feed off.

[witchimage]

[ That's always been true. What would have been a Satanic apocalypse without sinners and saints to obliterate and torture? She understands. ]

The Extinction was always the goal. But we still have mile markers to meet before we come to it.
