SIX ✖ VIDEO

[Anyone viewing the hologram will notice Charles looks a lot less... well dressed and put together than usual. While he isn't really rocking the Goth chic of some of the other inhabitants, this general ensemble isn't something you'll ever see him wearing back on the Barge. He's also standing up, because this counterpart swapped out his damaged spine for a new one, and is currently working off the debt by being a Repo Man who is pretty chill about his job and is partnered up with his bff Erik.

He smiles a bit, seeming fairly normal and casual about the whole thing, and clearly not bothered about the environment or oh god, someone is coming after my organs thing.]


Bit strange, isn't it? Everyone says they know what they're getting themselves into when they sign the contract initially, but as soon as the deadline on payment approaches, it becomes "I don't remember" and "you must be wrong", "this can't be happening". [He laughs a little flatly, somewhere between a little amused and disbelieving.]

What else were they expecting, honestly? You don't find quality goods lying around in the street. And I have it on good authority we're doing our best to accommodate for everyone's needs.

Perhaps people should be sure they understand what they're signing before going under the knife.

[He finishes the recording by humming a few bars of the GeneCo jingle, which - if you strain your ears a bit - is playing distantly in the background on his end before the feed cuts.]

Threatening company policy because of boredom. Hnn. [Her groan and eyeroll speak volumes.]

Oh, I believe it. It's just so ridiculous. Some of us have work to be doing.

Unless you'd like to come help me down in R&D. [The implicit threat that he might become one of Vasilia's involuntary test subjects isn't a new one.]
unreservedly: (I wonder why they need me at all.)

I'm not quite that bored, I'm afraid. [And he and Erik might have some people to chop up in a while so. There's that.]

Just try not to scare any of my assignments to ground. You know I get a better read off their endurance when they run.

Oh, let's see. [She sighs and her wristlet beeps as she pulls the list of files.]

Smith, J.
Alanham, M
Chronormu... there's a new one...
Hannibal, L.

Not a very promising bunch, but you never know.
unreservedly: (but you wouldn't cry)

[Charles laughs.] What sort of a name is Chronormu?

Oh, who knows what parents are thinking when they name children. It might actually be a mercy about her delinquency.

As do you, hopefull-

[There's a mechanical alarm in the background and the sound of a scream]

-OH STOP IT TWENTY-TWO YOUR HEART CAN TAKE THAT LEVEL FOR ANOTHER HOUR listen Xavier I have to go, you can't find good bodies these days.

[Charles laughs a little hollowly, nodding in understanding and waving a friendly goodbye.]

Good luck, Vasilia.
