9th: The Consideration of Haruhi Suzumiya

[godbent]

[Voice]

...Huh, so I guess that's over now. I actually liked that one, being super was really cool! [Sigh] Well, whatever.

Brigade, for those who missed the memo, we collected three new members of late. They were introduced before, but to clarify, the cartoony rabbit thing is Oswald and that other guy is Ayumu, and apparently he's a zombie. We also got Ellis, but I've not seen hide or hair of him- anyone who knows anything about him should report to me ASAP.

[...] Oh, right, and if you didn't notice yet, Minako's gone. [She didn't know for sure when Minato or whoever left her the gift, but it's hard not to miss now

...And then there's Usagi, but she's gone, apparently. That still feels like a kick to the gut, so she's not going to address that. Well, she has things to do today, but let's throw up some filters first:]

[Filtered to Pascal // 85% Unhackable]

Hey, we talked before, right? You still here?

[Filtered to Rena // 85% Unhackable]

[She hasn't really spoke with her since Valentines, or well... shortly there after. She frowns and then exhales sharply before]

Hey, let's talk.

[...Pause, and then back to public again:]

[Public voice]

Hey, anyone else got worthwhile DVDs?! I've got pretty much the complete collection of Disney and Pixar stuff, but nothing else. Anyone who's got anything of value, ring me and we can arrange a trade! [...] It's so lame they don't just have them in the shops, really. Actually- hey, Catherine! If you're stalking this, let's talk about you giving me some more movies.

[That would give her more to do, anyway. Either way, it's Sunday]

Comments

[godbent]

Well, I dunno, I guess. What sort of stuff?

[bamfing]

Plenty of stuff! Sci fi, drama, sitcoms, cartoons... even some awesome old Errol Flynn movies.

[godbent]

Huh, that is a lot of variety. Make an inventory for later, maybe?

[bamfing]

Right... yeah, I could do that. Maybe more people could start swapping if I did that..

[godbent]

Yeah, if they aren't going to be in the stores via Shifting we might as well set up an exchange network.

[bamfing]

Count me in! This place is way boring and I'm way past running out of stuff to watch.

[godbent]

Alright, so with our combined collections we'll set up the basis for it! Now I just need to draft a frontman!

[bamfing]

Sweet. So, any ideas for who that will be?

[godbent]

...Someone who's bored enough to do it but reliable enough to make sure everything's in order.

[nomorebamfs.livejournal.com]

So that rules out everyone in the Brigade, yeah?

wow unblueing

[godbent]

[Oh, yes it does.]

Yeah, 'course. I can't have them blowing time like that.

whoops

[bamfing]

It shouldn't be too hard to find someone around here who is bored. But who knows if they'll want to go following orders.

[godbent]

A little resistance is fine, what matters is that they don't jack the collection.

[bamfing]

Yeah, better make sure you get their address first.

[godbent]

'Course! I'm not that dumb!

[bamfing]

It's an easy mistake to make. Have you ever deal with thieves?

[godbent]

[Yes, no. Sort of. She was the thief]

What, you have?

[bamfing]

[Well there's the Brotherhood... and Gambit.]

Yeah, a few. Mutant thieves, even.

[godbent]

So you're volunteering to be the one reviewing candidates for the DVD storage? Fine, then get on it, but I'll review the final call personally!

[bamfing]

Wait a second, I never agreed to that!

[godbent]

I'll be expecting results in due time, Kurt! Get on it!

[CLOSING THE BOOK]

[bamfing]

I- HEY!

[Crap. Guess he's stuck now.]
