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.]

You can't blame people for not understanding, Charles, although it is truly a shame to see people unwilling to acknowledge and make good on the remarkable second chance which Geneco has given us all!
unreservedly: (well they tore you down)

I wasn't blaming so much as... thinking out loud.
buywithme: (Something is not right with the world...)

[personal profile] buywithme 2012-02-25 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Well... then I suppose I agree with you. It's always strange to me that people think that it's acceptable to renege on their payments to us without consequences, but there are people for you, I suppose.
unreservedly: (you just grinned)

[personal profile] unreservedly 2012-02-25 11:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Always running into things without thinking.
buywithme: (Buy nice things off me!)

Instant gratification culture, my friend. It may not make for wise decisions, but it does make for a good deal of being gratified?
unreservedly: (Also I can kill you with my brain.)

[personal profile] unreservedly 2012-02-26 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
I can definitely think of worse things than kicking back and enjoying all that comes along with.
buywithme: (I will undress you too)

[personal profile] buywithme 2012-02-26 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
I couldn't agree more. Perhaps sometime we should kick back together? Go see a show or something?

[Apparently Repo Prefect is hitting on all of your dudes today.]
unreservedly: (well they tore you down)

[personal profile] unreservedly 2012-02-26 12:26 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose. What sort of show?

[OH PREFECT speaking of which do you want to do a log or some such with him and Trip? I was thinking about that today and chinscratched.]
buywithme: (smirk)

[personal profile] buywithme 2012-02-26 12:34 am (UTC)(link)
I know of a little Caberet Bar with some excellent live acts, if you're interested?

[I'll be putting up an open log and maybe post as well tomorrow, so they can go for a coffee in EITHER ONE!]
unreservedly: (you just grinned)

[personal profile] unreservedly 2012-02-26 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
What's your game, Prefect?

[SOUNDS GOOD <3]
buywithme: (un-fake smile)

[personal profile] buywithme 2012-02-26 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
Who says I have a game? Perhaps I'd just like to share a nice evening and a few bottles of wine with my favorite colleague?

[If you haven't noticed that he's flirting by now, Charles, the problem is you.]
unreservedly: (Also I can kill you with my brain.)

[personal profile] unreservedly 2012-02-26 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
[Charles has many problems alright.]

Hmm, I'm your favorite now, am I?
buywithme: (Puppy dog eyes)

[personal profile] buywithme 2012-02-26 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
Of course! You know I've always admired your intellect, your civility...

[...your butt]

...your professionalism. I think it's high time we spent some time together talking about something other than work.
unreservedly: (and you wouldn't beg)

[personal profile] unreservedly 2012-02-28 04:20 pm (UTC)(link)
That's very sweet of you, Prefect.
