002 ↔ video

[Saul's not a fan of using video on this thing. Anyone could be watching, and he's sure that's the case — which means he's about to show a hand of cards he never really wanted to — but he also knows he needs to come across as sincere and non-threatening as possible if he wants this request to be taken seriously. Text wouldn't work, voice... might, but also might not.

He still has his doubts, though. What he's about to do is ridiculous, even by his own standards. He'd laugh at anyone else making a suggestion like this, and he's half-tempted to laugh at himself, too, but when the feed clicks on and his image appears, he's all business. Literally: in a suit, at a desk, weapon laid out (for those who'd notice, the weapon is disengaged, the safety on; he's learning!), hands folded.]


This — [indicating the weapon, then lacing his fingers back together] — is a shotgun that's been modified to use non-lethal electrified bullets. The charge measures about 500 volts, and —

[There go his hands again, moving to retrieve one of the cartridges. He lifts it to the lens, waits for it to focus, then continues speaking.]

From what I understand, that should be enough to temporarily incapacitate a normal human being. But the problem is, I'm not sure. I've been using blanks on the dummies over in the Hold, so I have no idea what effect one of these things would actually have on a living, breathing person. So...

[He trails off, lowers the cartridge, and shifts uncomfortably in his chair.]

I realize how unorthodox and just plain sketchy a request like this is going to sound, but... who's willing to let me shoot them, and who's willing to be the medic present if-slash-when this happens? I'm looking for someone over eighteen, healthy, preferably human. I can compensate you with fifty doll—uh. Marques. Or we can negotiate, if necessary.

Serious inquiries only. Thanks.

[All of the DO NOT APPROVE right here but someone is going to volunteer. He's seen enough of human behavior to know it.]

I'm Dr. Cullen. I'll be willing to stand as medic if you get a volunteer.

Lethal or not, those things gotta hurt.
highhealplz: card art? it makes me uncomfy. (unsure | did you ever notice injustice's)

That's a pleasant request. I can't imagine people not jumping at the chance to be electrocuted.

Are you entirely certain that it's not lethal?

[He scoffs slightly.]

Even still, who would allow themselves to be abused for such a paltry sum?
dawningsun: (smirk)

I'm afraid you've excluded me from test subjects already. I am, fortunately, not human.

[And he smirks a little.]

Though I've no doubt you'll find some manner of fool. Do take care that you don't accidentally kill them.

[Or not. If they're foolish enough to let themselves be shot at, to begin with...]

They are, perhaps, more real than some of me.

[He smirks.]
highhealplz: and those were the last words the annoying warp begger ever heard (smile | trust me it goes to prontera)

[ fine ok that gets a chuckle ]

So you hope, at least.

I wouldn't mind being your target, if you don't find anyone whose lifelong dream is to be shocked.

I tend not to waste my time with such frivolities.

I would wish you luck not killing someone, but, if anyone is fool enough to allow themselves to be shot at, I cannot say I entirely pity him.

I would suggest animals, to start.

[But humans work too. CLOSE ENOUGH.]
keep_smiling: (yes!)

I'd be glad to help! [Just all grin and cheer here]
highhealplz: your unholy ass is grass (grin | just stocked up on blue gems.)

[ so casual, with just the tiniest air of smugness: ] Instantaneously, yes. Really, the only downside is that I might not be the best example of its effect on an average human.

Ah, but not human testing, apparently?

[He quirks a long brow.]

Odd that you might think less of your own kind than dogs. Though I suppose I'll not argue with you, there.

[haha.]
highhealplz: just to get a cool hat. (talk | so then i ground for 87 hours)

[personal profile] highhealplz 2013-05-04 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Are you asking if I dislike anyone enough to ask them to be shocked?
