1st Mistake; video

[Two lavender eyes stare deeply into the camera, leaning in too close.]

Testing, 1, 2, 3! Um, hi? Oh good, it's working...

[Mahdi slides backward. He's in the dining area of one of the assigned apartments. The guy looks about fifteen, and was clearly plucked right from his job: he's wearing a clean but old and stained black apron over khakis and a polo that have seen better days. There's a hairnet crumpled up on one side of the table, next to a glittery purple flashlight.]

Is there any way for me to contact my boss on this thing? You'd think a simple inter-realm transmission wouldn't be that hard considering how much other crazy stuff they have out here. [More to himself than to the netbook:] I really just want to tell her I won't be coming in. I'm supposed to be there for the breakfast crowd and she's gonna be up a creek without me. Probably can't get out of getting fired for not showing up... even if technically I was there. Early, even!

[He seems to remember himself, and addresses the camera once again.] Anyway, hi! I'm Mahdi. I'm new. They set me up with a place to stay, so I guess I'm gonna be a prisoner for awhile here, huh? [He doesn't exactly seem upset about it, though at least it's clear he's not enthusiastic.] I hope we can makes friends! That's what people do on the internet, right?

[ wow he could not believe that less
BUT IT'S RUDE TO ACCUSE PEOPLE OF LYING and this is obviously something he doesn't want to expand on, so...
]

Forgive me, I was mistaken. You seemed to speak with knowledge on the subject, is all.
healplz: (miffed | did you just say itams plz)

[ Whoa, suddenly this kid seems a little more... important. Anyone who deals with angels and demons is worthy of note. ...Especially the demons part, that makes him a little wary. ]

You did. [ Well, at least it's less patronizing this time, even if he lost a little of that warmth. ] Will you be doing any of the same work here?
healplz: (quiet | psyching up for the emp room)

[personal profile] healplz 2012-08-29 07:01 am (UTC)(link)
I am, that's true.

[ ...It's really hard to stay suspicious of a guy that sounds like that. ]

For your sake, I hope you find it possible to stay out of the Initiative's conflict.

[personal profile] healplz 2012-08-30 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
Ah... [ wat. ] What kind of sweets?
healplz: (unsure | he just /slur'd at me)

[personal profile] healplz 2012-08-30 08:10 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose. I'd never given them much thought.
healplz: (consider | if you bless THEN agi...)

[personal profile] healplz 2012-08-31 08:12 am (UTC)(link)
Well... there is a dish local to my hometown of Morroc, I was quite fond of that.
healplz: (smile | sweet new loading screens)

[personal profile] healplz 2012-09-01 08:40 am (UTC)(link)
That might take some consideration. [ because he is so totally not a cook WHAT ARE INGREDIENTS ] But... thank you. That's a very kind offer to make, especially to a new acquaintance.
healplz: (smile | aww you think you'll survive)

[personal profile] healplz 2012-09-01 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
If I didn't know any better, I would say that ought to be my role, as the veteran to a strange new world. Is there anything that I might get you to ease your adjustment, Mahdi?
healplz: (concern | is it really enough bear feet?)

[personal profile] healplz 2012-09-03 06:36 am (UTC)(link)
[ oh. uh. that's kind of awkward. is he supposed to hug someone he's just met?? ]

I... am sure you will be making friends in no time at all here. That doesn't seem so unlikely a wish.
healplz: (smile | another shitty blue box huh.)

[personal profile] healplz 2012-09-03 04:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[ oh no he's made someone feel bad GUILT. a brief pause for hesitation, and then he smiles. ]

My apologies— you haven't made me mad, I only think a hug would be difficult for a pair speaking over this network. Perhaps if we met face to face?

[personal profile] healplz 2012-09-03 05:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Are you anywhere near the housing?
healplz: (stare | get back to louyang you commie)

[personal profile] healplz 2012-09-03 05:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Which number is that?
healplz: (consider | if you bless THEN agi...)

[personal profile] healplz 2012-09-03 06:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Only a floor above my own room, then. I can be there shortly.
