[There's talking yelling over the receiver immediately; it seems as though he's been ranting for a good thirty seconds before the phone actually picked it up.]

--this is another one of Jade's tricks I will flay him alive! All my clothes are gone and I've never been in this house before and there's a strange woman and I am going to kill someone over this if I don't get my clothes and robots back. In their sleep. With a knife. A gorgeous knife. That's on fire. Just watch your back, whoever you are. I'm very good at finding people, and I will find you.

[Beat.]

...But at least I can go outside again.

[This fact made the whole situation significantly less Not Okay, even, but far be it from Dist to not find something to bitch about.]

You! You're from that wretched Jade gang!

[Still! Someone he knew! ...Sort of! It was a slight(slight) relief to know that someone else in this place knew how the world was supposed to work.]

Wouldn't that be the Luke gang?

Hmph. I don't keep track of your group dynamics.

How many others from Auldrant are here?

You know, you're asking a lot of questions and I haven't even fit in one yet.

[identity profile] buildstherobots.livejournal.com 2010-02-28 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
...I asked one question.

Tch. Fine, then. What do you want to know?

[identity profile] allfordreck.livejournal.com 2010-02-28 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
How the hell are you still alive?

[identity profile] buildstherobots.livejournal.com 2010-02-28 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
Hmph. You should know that; you were there when Jade arrested me in Grand Chokma, after you killed the Nebilim replica.

Regardless, how many times did your little group try to kill me, again?

[identity profile] allfordreck.livejournal.com 2010-02-28 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
...right. I suspect the answer to that is as many times as we could.

Now, are you going to answer my question?

[identity profile] allfordreck.livejournal.com 2010-02-28 02:22 am (UTC)(link)
I'm the only one. Aside from you.

[identity profile] allfordreck.livejournal.com 2010-02-28 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
You're telling me. Look, even I don't know a lot about about this place and I'm not about to stand between you and Jade so why don't we dispense with any built up problems so things can run smoothly.

[identity profile] buildstherobots.livejournal.com 2010-02-28 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
I don't have any problems. The only reason I was working with the Commandant was for the Professor, and that ended in failure. Even if it hadn't, there's nothing to be done about it in this place. As long as you don't try anything I'd say we can coexist quite nicely.

[identity profile] allfordreck.livejournal.com 2010-02-28 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
I definitely don't have any plans for aggression. We've both got enough on our hands as it is.

[identity profile] buildstherobots.livejournal.com 2010-02-28 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
Good. We're in agreement, then.

When did you get here?

[identity profile] buildstherobots.livejournal.com 2010-02-28 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
What do you know about this place, anyway? I've gathered a few things, like people coming from different worlds, silly as it sounds, and apparently we can't leave? I can't imagine you know that much more than me, but you have been here longer, so.

[identity profile] allfordreck.livejournal.com 2010-02-28 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
Has anyone told you about this brainwashing thing yet?

[identity profile] buildstherobots.livejournal.com 2010-02-28 02:46 am (UTC)(link)
Brainwashing? No one's brought it up yet, no.

[identity profile] allfordreck.livejournal.com 2010-02-28 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
Apparently, if you do something unwanted or against the law around here, you'll get turned into a drone. If you're curious about what one of those are, you basically have to look out the window.

[identity profile] allfordreck.livejournal.com 2010-02-28 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
For a couple hours or days.

[identity profile] buildstherobots.livejournal.com 2010-02-28 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose that's how they expect to keep people from leaving, then.

Well. I'm far too gorgeous and brilliant for that; I'm sure I'll figure something out before too long. I'll contact you if I find anything, I guess.

[identity profile] allfordreck.livejournal.com 2010-02-28 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
I'll...stay in touch.
