Forgot about that. So – can I go home now? Not that this place isn’t cool and all, but it’s pretty much just like home, but it isn’t actually home, and I have important things to do back at my actual home. I’m sure everyone does. Kind of rude to just yank me out of there, messed up my sense of direction and everything. Where even am I.
[He flops back on the bed, curling up in his coat, and drags the netbook along with him.]
I mean, they told me, but it didn’t really answer my questions. Honestly? This is stupid. I’d like to be back in my own dimension now where the things I do actually matter. I don’t live here. I’m not entitled to help these people do whatever they’re doing. Rebel? They’re pretty damn tight-lipped about it if you ask me.
Anyway. [He waves his hand dismissively.] Anyone out there?

There's a whole world out there that likes us in here. And while I'm sure they're happy to see us lay about all day, if they start to feel like we're a real threat-- you know, by taking down what's keeping this island prison running-- I don't want to consider what would be the next step.

They think by sending us into the past to do something specific-- whatever that is-- we'll change things here and set it all right. 'Right' meaning whatever their ideal world would be compared to this corpse of a city.

[NO ONE MENTIONED THIS? THANKS??]
Okay. Okay. That's fine. Whatever. I just - don't - time travel doesn't seem like the best way to go about that but hey, if you want shit to hit the fan as soon as possible I guess that's the best way to do it. No one ever said it would hit the fan on the right side.

[She chuckles, nodding in agreement.] Uh-huh. I won't even pretend to know how disastrous it all could be. Not really my kind of strategy.
no subject
[It's wishful thinking but it's better than hopelessness.]
So... til they send us somewhere, what do we do?
no subject

[What a foreign concept.]
Hell I don't know, what do other people do during their time off? What do you do?
no subject
I work. And when I'm not working...well, I work again. Can't speak much for everyone else stuck here.
no subject
Sounds about right. Got a feeling you wouldn't find much treasure here, though.
no subject
no subject
Point taken. Well listen, good luck with whatever treasure you're looking for - and uh, thanks I guess. [For indulging his complaining.] Maybe I'll see you around? Oh, and I didn't catch your name!
no subject
Don't worry about me; I'll manage just fine. Hopefully it's you that won't need that much help keeping yourself busy in the long run, yeah?
no subject
And I'm sure I'll manage. Not a fan of stagnancy - I'll find something to do.
no subject
Just do yourself a favor and watch your back while you're at it. Boredom often tends to lead to trouble; better to be prepared.
