[Wes has managed to work out where he works now. What the hell, This Timeline Wes?]

So. Is anyone else seriously questioning their new timeline counterpart's judgement?

[He shakes his head]

I could not possibly have had that much to drink.

Comments

[kettchmeifyoucan]

Anything notable in there yet?

Re: [audio]

[kettchmeifyoucan]

Got it in one.

[kettchmeifyoucan]

For a while we were entertaining the notion that there was so much concentrated drunk that it had far reaching effects. It was a good party.

[djinnigenie]

One of legend, it seems. I am sorry to have missed it. Tis been quite some time since I could allow myself to be drunk. Perhaps I should look into that now that I am no longer burdened by continual duty.

[professorwolf]

I probably oughtn't go talking about work on the network, Wes. Classified and all that.

[Though he might later, in person, if anyone really wants to know.]

In general, though, I haven't found anything earth-shattering. Just some general details of the new regime we've found ourselves in, to fill in the blanks.

[kettchmeifyoucan]

I highly advise it. Duty's all well and good, but if you're not enjoying life when you can you might as well have died in the course of it.

[djinnigenie]

Ha! I absolutely could not agree more. Perhaps you would allow me to buy a flagon of ale for you, sometime?

My name is Elissa.

[kettchmeifyoucan]

Right. That.

[Funny how the habits slip when you aren't trying to keep things from the Authorities]

[kettchmeifyoucan]

Not one to say no to a drink. I'm Janson, Wes Janson.

[erranthero]

Did we ever figure out how far back in time we went?

[kettchmeifyoucan]

I don't think anyone ever came up with exact numbers.

[erranthero]

Well, have you been to check on the...you know what...yet?

Bond. James Bond.

[djinnigenie]

Good to meet you, Wes - at least in one sense of the word 'meet.' What has you so troubled about this 'new' Verdana? Keep in mind that I spent but one night in the Old City before everything went mad.

[kettchmeifyoucan]

Not yet. Up for a hike tomorrow?

[Hopefully the area is still deserted]

[erranthero]

Yea, that sounds like a plan. Around noon?

[tiptoeing]

I did, yes. I've been filled in about what happened, but I'm trying to sort out being back before I analyze that too closely. I'm probably going to have to find new jobs, but I don't think I could work for the Authorities.

[professorwolf]

Indeed.

[That subject worn out, he goes for the other reason he'd replied to this:]

At any rate, I hear that you and I are actually sharing a place in Poseidon. If you were wondering what that second bedroom was for.

[kettchmeifyoucan]

I'm not quite sure what to do on that front. I don't exactly have a lot of skills that are suited to civilian life.

Re: Bond. James Bond.

[kettchmeifyoucan]

The allegiances have shifted. I'm still not quite sure what to make of that.

[kettchmeifyoucan]

Well. That explains why it looks occupied. I haven't touched anything. IN case your previous timeline self wanted things a certain way.

[kettchmeifyoucan]

Works for me. They've given me a couple days off.

[Something about not being sure about letting someone who has no idea what's going on in his life fly]

Re: Bond. James Bond.

[djinnigenie]

Twould indeed be troubling to find things so different. I confess that I do seem to like Poseidon far better than the Old City, but perhaps tis because I spent my formative years in a coastal area. Do you sail?

[professorwolf]

I appreciate that. I think I mostly live in the Old City, here, since it's where I work-- but I imagine I'll be out for the weekend, to catch up with people there. Friday afternoon, at the latest.

Is that all right with you?

[Since he only vaguely knows Wes, and doesn't remember any of this apartment-sharing, obviously. He's a little uncertain about it, and laying on the politeness pretty heavily to make up for it.]

[erranthero]

Great. See you then.

[OOC: Want to just continue this here?]

[kettchmeifyoucan]

Doesn't bother me. Between bunking with squadmates and the joys of Mayfield housing, I'm pretty used to people coming and going.

I think I must go up to the Old City when I'm flying patrols?
