[ he'll be on the observation deck, seemingly pretty entranced by the starscape out the window - but once he realizes someone else is there he starts a bit, trying to pretend he wasn't just lost in thought. ]
For the record, not my first time seeing this landscape.
There's always mutiny. [there's always REVOLUTION] Or jumping off at the next stop and not coming back, though that could also result in your death based on the supposed introduction of nanites into our system.
But as they say, nothing ventured, nothing gained. Blind compliance sounds far more dull.
Though I need more information to do so. It'll take time, and they'll probably try to keep the means away from me, but it wouldn't be hard to disengage them.

W0 - SATURDAY
For the record, not my first time seeing this landscape.

[begging scien to be even 3% more pleasant to engage with
but he does find himself curious enough to ask - ]
Calmer now? Or is the frustration simply more dormant?
no subject
I've always been perfectly calm.
[OKAY, LIAR]
Frustration is a different emotion. Think I've moved onto anger now. Yourself?
no subject
[this is so funny but also let the man have his rewritten history]
I've been annoyed since I woke up, and I imagine that'll be the case for the entirety of our stay.
no subject
[ this fucking body undergoes so much fucking amnesia. its got to be bad. surely it has to stop at some point. ]
Then we're experiencing much the same.
[ tapping a finger on the glass. ]
Have you been to the Astral Plane?
no subject
I haven't. [being on the ground is hell enough but scien is ultimately more curious than anything else so - ] What is it?
no subject
It is exactly where I need to go. And this looks like it. Feels like it. But it's not the right one.
no subject
[is he
is he understanding this correctly]
no subject
[ drumming his fingers on the glass again. ]
The void isn't calling. That's the crux of the problem. I'm missing the feeling-- Have you ever stood at the top of a very tall tower?
no subject
High places?
[like a cat....]
no subject
High places, high places. Standing at the brink and hearing the voice that says ... jump.
no subject
So it's similar to the void that you're looking for, but it's also not.
And so? Will you remain on board this vessel until they take you to the right one?
no subject
[ tilting his head. ]
I don't think I have much of a choice in the matter. Same as the rest of us.
no subject
But as they say, nothing ventured, nothing gained. Blind compliance sounds far more dull.
no subject
[ he makes a face at the reminder of there being more bullshit in his blood. ]
You've a scientific mind, do you know how to remove it ... ?
no subject
[said like 'obviously?']
Though I need more information to do so. It'll take time, and they'll probably try to keep the means away from me, but it wouldn't be hard to disengage them.
[yes it will u bitch this is a murdergame]
no subject
I've got enough nonsense in my blood as it is.
[ looking at his wrist again, the IRIS flickering a little. ]
You mentioned being replaced. Well, I would be as well, but personally I have no intention of letting them try again.
no subject
And so? What is your next plan of action? Not more screaming into your hands, I hope.
no subject
[ so we're just going to try and gaslight that out of existence, huh. ]
I wasn't screaming into my hands.
no subject
[neither of these people should be calling other people weirdos]
