It feels weird posting here after everything that has happened. The first day after I arrived, someone told me things weren't usually this hectic. And I doubt R.E.M envisioned zombies, grenades and mutinies when he wrote Man on the Moon.

But now I think I can suspend my disbelief and accept that I have been here before and can't remember a sodding thing about it. So, this is a re-introduction. My name is John Watson and I'm a doctor. I would like to help if I can and apologize to anyone I might have accidentally ignored.

Cheers.

Why else do you think we're all locked up?

[acclimatized]

I'm not taking any sides.

[doubleoohbaby]

Clever man. Not as stupid as I presume you look.

[acclimatized]

:)

[doubleoohbaby]

But really. They might attack. They're like caged lionesses in here.

[acclimatized]

I'll have to grace you with my chiselled features another time then. I don't support either side, but I don't want to exacerbate things either.

[doubleoohbaby]

Hah. Chiselled.

With a name like that, I'm going to be disappointed if you're not overweight and moustache laden.

[acclimatized]

You will be disappointed then. But I am thinking about growing a moustache.

[doubleoohbaby]

Why would you do that to yourself?

[acclimatized]

Just fancy a change. Like I said, I am still thinking about it.

[doubleoohbaby]

If you need pointers, seek out the bloke around here with the huge moustache. Can't miss him.

[acclimatized]

Are you talking about Sullivan or are you just trying to troll me again?

[doubleoohbaby]

Oh, you've met? Has he given you grooming techniques?

[acclimatized]

He was the first bloke I met. The only thing we've discussed is little green men and people from galaxies far, far away.

[doubleoohbaby]

Ask him next time you speak to him.

[acclimatized]

About his moustache? Nah, I'm good.

[doubleoohbaby]

He can give you tips.

[acclimatized]

And let me borrow a COMB?

[doubleoohbaby]

[Lolz.]

Yes.

[acclimatized]

[ sarcasm was supposed to work. ]

Why am I even talking to you.

[doubleoohbaby]

Because it's entertaining and you have no friends.

[ that strikes a nerve and he almost hurls his tablet across the room. instead, john draws in a calming breath and types a response. ]

You're right. I don't. Enjoy talking to a wall.

[doubleoohbaby]

I'll enjoy talking to these fabulous ladies.

Hit a nerve, did I?

[acclimatized]

What gives you that idea?

[doubleoohbaby]

Something about the bitterness typed into the 'enjoy talking to a wall'.
