[The sounds of outside filter through the network, distant with little to be heard beyond the faint rustle of the wind, but there nonetheless. A distinctive clink-fwoosh of a lighter disrupts anything further, followed by the slow crackle of burning paper and tobacco and a satisfied inhale and steady exhale. When he finally speaks, it's with a tone that lacks interest.]
Well, isn't this quaint. Doubt I would have believed it were I not seeing it with my own eyes. At least the woman greeting me was persuasive enough. [You can practically hear the dirty little smirk.]
Even so, I'm not quite sure how I feel out of my home and sent on my merry way towards college kid dorm rooms. Or rather, I'm perfectly aware of how I feel about it, just the words I'm looking for aren't for public ears.
Still. Judging by the archives on this thing, there's plenty of you about who know this world, so come on, share your wisdom with an outsider, would you? One can never know too much.
[A pause as he inhales another lungful of smoke, eventually adding with a thoughtful exhale:] Oh, and don't patronise me with the basics. I'm curious, not stupid.

action
Hn. [Dismissive grunt.]
Not really.
action
[ And now Adam really has to wonder if this only applies to his own version of Earth...? Is there really no one else who knows about Bond's exploits around here? Does this mean they've got a special Bond-bond here??
Ahem. ] I don't think there's a person who hasn't at least heard of you.
action
I think you've mistaken me. James Bond is a rather common name. No one would need to hear of my exploits. [Still, with his senses still scoping Adam out, James idly glances off to one side, considering this whole sodding mix up. Since he's showed up here- which is unbelievable in itself- Bond has already witnessed all sorts on the network's archives. Hell, he's even rooming with a guy who claims to be 'The Doctor'. Multiple universes aren't entirely inconceivable, and things will be a little different from one place to the next...]
action
Let's see... it's been a while since I watched any of the movies, and I didn't really bother with the recent ones since they all looked like shit. But I remember watching Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace a few years back. That's the story about your first mission as double oh, wasn't it. Had to stop some guy called Le Chiffre from winning a poker tournament.
[ thinking. he really mostly remembers the torture scene because ouch man, you don't forget something like that. ]
Oh yeah, that's also where you got whipped in the balls. [ raises hands in a placative gesture! ] Sorry.
action
Keep talking and I might offer you a demonstration of my foot in your balls.
Re: action
You wanted to know. Either believe me or don't, but don't lash out at me for this place's bullshit.
[ Besides, no matter how much respect he has, he wouldn't shy away from punching James back hard. ]
action
[To be fair, James would probably just enjoy a good punch up. So manly~]
action
It was a very memorable scene. Made me so glad I had not chosen the CIA secret agent route.
[ he might also just remember that one in particular scene because his girlfriend at the time who he was watching it with suddenly got very touchy-feely. apparently there is something about manly mens suffering... ]
action
Is that what counts as entertainment in your world? Watching a bloke get his balls whipped?
[Why would you even... In hindsight, he's glad he didn't cry like a little girl now if others were watching. Good job he's a bad ass. B|]
action
Adam shrugs, nonchalantly. ]
People love bad spy movies. I think it's mostly the cool gadgets and your womanizing nature that people find so fascinating. I don't really care--I'm still waiting for Batman.
[ Now THAT'D be something. Although it's still pretty cool to meet James Bond. ]
action
Is nothing in my life considered private?
[That was mostly rhetorical. By the sound of it, his answer is already known.]
action
If you're lucky, you're only known as the most infamous spy in fiction in my 'reality'. Didn't really bother researching pop culture here yet, but given we're in a future version of England, maybe you want to look up a certain 'Ian Fleming'.
action
[And start researching rabidly from now on.]
So, Batman is fictional in your world too?
action
Yeah. Along with a whole bunch of other 'superheroes'. [ But Batman is still his favorite. ]
But I've already heard about another reality where being a hero with special abilities is not at all special. It's all pretty fucked up, and it'll only get worse from here on out.
action
He's fictional in my world too. It's starting to seem like one man's fiction is another's reality.
action
Seems like it. That's... somewhat unsettling.
[ Also quietly activating his CASIE implant simply out of curiosity and for his personal entertainment. Often takes the fun out of meeting new people but now it doesn't matter anymore.
Yep, sounds accurate. ]
Well, now you know. If you need a drink after that, I believe they're passing a list around.
And if it's any consolation: they didn't actually show your dick.
[ ... yeah sorry he couldn't help it trololol ]
action
It would have only made you jealous.
[Because y'know, his is so superior to all. Duh. Uh...]
Do you drink?
action
I have enough other limbs that would make you jealous, I bet.
[ He sounds... deadpan. That's actually some self-deprecating humor there. ]
Sometimes.
[ Understatement of the year. ]
action
Was that some sort of awful attempt at innuendo?
action
No. Just--forget it.
[ How does I deal with being a cyborg in a non-cyborg world ]
action
I might need to be persuaded to forget. With alcohol.
action
Sounds like blackmail, Mr Bond.
action
action
I'm not paying.
[ crosses arms in front chest again nope ]
action
[It appears they're both cheapskates. Or at least Bond is when he's got limited funds in a new universe.]
