10 △ VIDEO; looking fine and augmented
[ Considering Adam spent the last two weeks as his old self, that is, the person he was before this and that incident, he takes it remarkably well. The memory of actual, feeling hands is still fresh in his mind, although he hadn't even been able to appreciate it much due to it having been nothing special at the time. It's easier to compare now, however—flesh to metal, feeling to unfeeling, weak to powerful. And for once, the lingering emotion of something having been taken from him against his will doesn't flare up again.
It's different. Much like a disabled person revisits the memory and place where everything happened and changed to maybe, finally, find some closure.
Things happen.
You don't always get a say in it. All you can do is deal, adapt and progress, because ultimately, that's what life has always been about. ]

I see everyone's quick to mope or make apologies. Excuse me if I refrain from joining your ranks this time, seeing as I came out of this with a few cute girls, free meals and a videogame—all things I didn't ask for, but I'm still not sharing. The game, maybe, if you ask nicely, but it's somewhat dated. So unless you can appreciate classics, don't even bother.
[ HI everyone did you miss this butt he's sure you did. ]
Oh, and here's your general PSA, directed at no one in particular, especially not the guys around the precinct: get into the habits of locking your tablets if you're just gonna leave 'em lying around. The next time I find one I'm gonna post the entirety of its porn folder to the network tagged with your name. And before you go, oh, that silly Adam Jensen, of course my porn folder is locked and hidden slash I'm an innocent virgin who doesn't even have a porn folder, honest--
Don't make the mistake of thinking that's gonna stop me.
[ Private to Samus ]
You free tonight?
no subject
Woah, hey, fuck you. No. Get out.
[Strange as it seems though, there is no computer in the room. There's a (mangled) desk and office chair, as if there was a computer there typically, but for the moment, it's missing.]
You're actually pithing me off now, get out or I'll toth you out the fucking window.
[ooc: since we're doing permission things, Sollux has psionics. Is there anything in particular he can't do right now? i mean he's not going to kill adam or anything, but there will likely be some telekinesis used soon.]
no subject
And I thought my place looked bad.
[ At least his underwear isn't strewn everywhere nor are there pesky insects. ]
I'd like to see you try. I warned you not to piss me off, brat.
no subject
[Behind Adam, the wall-sized window opens up. Behind Sollux's thick shaded glasses, red and blue glow brightly from his mutant eyes, and soon, Adam isn't touching the ground.
Since Sollux refused to use his abilities, for the most part, during their shared mission, this is probably the first time Adam's seen him use his powers. Although if Adam had taken note of those giant rocks that were hurled at the UE, he'd recall they shared the same red and blue tint that Sollux has glowing from his eyes now.]
Don't come here again, or it won't be a nice warning.
I fell asleep last night, Im sorry orz
That's a pretty neat trick.
[ But he's seen and felt worse shit-- shit that almost got him to beg, and making Adam Jensen beg isn't at all easy to pull off. Getting tossed out the window will do little to impress him; he might as well just climb back up. ]
Alien teenagers getting all serious now, I'm so fucking terrified. Y'see me shaking?
[ Though he doesn't sound nearly as snarly-growly as before; more nonchalant and devil-may-care. Before he takes a dive out the window though (which wouldn't be the first time, really), he's gonna gather some data for a less violent approach. Those are no less satisfying when successful. ]
I did too u_u
[Countdown to window tossing in 5...4...]
no subject
He'd laugh at that because he IS working for the police and can easily manipulate the files in his favor
just like he keeps stealing from his co-workers because wow he sure is the best employee ever, and he doubts anyone would take an annoying kid seriously, BUT he'd rather not take any chances.Blergh. This is going to be more work than venting, window tossing might or might not have to wait.
So yep, he's using pheromones now. Up to you if they have any effect, but what he's saying stands even without them. ]
I don't think you will. Hold it just a moment. What goes around comes around; are you really that surprised that someone doesn't put up with the crap you're giving them? You gotta take a long hard look at yourself and the people you surround yourself with once in a while before you point your finger at others. So maybe I punched a hole into your fucking wall, but apparently I wasn't the first one to do something like that. [ Yeah, he's observant. ] I wonder why?
no subject
Plenty of people put up with me. And the holesth Equiuth made don't count. We're dating.
[SAID AS IF THAT EXPLAINS EVERYTHING?? Which it absolutely doesn't. But at least he sounds slightly less furious than he did before.]
no subject
[ At least he has an accurate picture of himself and THAT is a really... weird explanation. Granted he and Samus can have rather wild tussles too but nothing like that. ]
So property damage is all right and tolerated when you're dating? That sounds rather [ abusive ] out there.
no subject
And in hith cathe, yeth.
no subject
Which of these is more stupid, that's a matter of opinion. Now I suggest you let me down unless you want things to escalate even more, 'cause believe me, flinging me through the air does nothing except aggravate me. And now that I know about that, it's probably best you keep shit like this between you and your -- boyfriend if you find that kinky or whatever, I don't care.
no subject
And fine. I'll let you down.
[Except by let down, he means levitating Adam right back to the window, out it, ten feet away from the building's walls, and then raising him another ten feet in the air.]
You're a robot, tho you won't die from thith.
[Aaaand, release.]
no subject
Fine, he can deal with that much, although he definitely does not appreciate being called a robot, that's sort of a pet peeve of his. He's maybe half-robot at most, thank you sir.
Maybe Sollux can at least appreciate a bit of a lightshow when he releases Adam, who's clearly falling but surrounded by something akin to a yellow bubble as he does, slowing down his speed considerably right before he hits the ground and absorbing the impact.
It takes him only a second to regain his focus after that, and he's shouting up at the window. ]
Not a robot. You're not a rhino just because you're gray and have horns, but feel free to correct me!
no subject
You called yourself a robot first! And I don't even know what a rhino ith!
[Yeah, yelling back and forth at each other. Although, he did in fact enjoy the lightshow. It sparked his curiosity, and if he didn't decidedly platonically hate Adam, he'd take more interest in it.]
no subject
[ Not that he doesn't think arguing that would be a moot point. ]
As for the rhino, go look it up. [ Big fat and ugly, yep. ] Put a picture of one right next to your mirror and you'll see what I mean. The similarity is astounding.
no subject

Or you could put put a few more holes in it. At least that's creative, I'm sure you could find someone who'd call it a modern and innovative design. You're welcome.
And I think I'm gonna have an asteroids party now. I would've invited you, but alas. Maybe next time.
[ Yeah, he's gonna get going now. That was incredibly pointless, but at least he got to punch a wall. And that's always pretty awesome. ]
no subject
[What goes unsaid is "Becauthe I wanted you to dithtribute it anyway." That was actually part two of his four step plan. And either Adam will do it, or he won't. It won't matter either way. He's still got a backup plan, if he doesn't.]
