[The SFC screen flickers for a moment before revealing a silver-haired, bespectacled individual, who is examining the screen quite intently and presumably also taking a look at all the buttons around it. He appears rather enchanted by all the various functions that the little machine appears to have, but his facial expression snaps to irascible almost instantly, as though he remembers why he turned on this weird thing to begin with.]

There is only one person who would even be able to come up with such an elaborate hoax and pull it over my eyes - you know who you are. And I demand that this person remove this prank right now!

[He is visibly irritated, although more from the fact that he cannot leave this ridiculous made-up world and return to his idea of sanity. The fact that he has to even ask to be released is taking a lot out of his pride, but he's already tried everything. A slight mark on his forehead remains as a trace of such attempts...

Because this place is insane, isn't it? Who is supposed to believe that there exists some city under the sea and in some different dimension? Where is the scientific basis?]


No, I do not buy your silly welcome brochure at all, and the local people wave their hands around the subject just like you do. And I'm playing along with your little game right now so that you can stop this! I expect to wake up back at the lab, in my chair, and respectably dry!

[Because, in case the viewer has not yet noticed, the man is noticeably drenched. His hair is sticking to the sides of his face, and his rather flamboyant outfit's petal-like frills around his collar are flopping around like wilted flowers. His delivery of the last phrase suggests that he rather dislikes his current state with a passion - not only is he wet, but his clothes! Ruined!]

Just you wait! This is definitely going into my revenge journal!

[So, many a dropped hint to a certain individual. Vatheon, perhaps some of you know of whom this poor man speaks of?]

There whereabouts are unknown. An abandoned laboratory was found on the island above, but other than clues about the nature of our confinement that were found there, there were no people. The locals know nothing.

If you wish, I can show you where it is on the island.

[Gale doesn't underestimate science, but mostly he's offering because showing someone around is easier than giving them directions.]

You are still in the Plaza, are you not? I will be there shortly.

[He'll bring a few towels with him, while he's at it. This guy still looks completely soaked.]

[Gale doesn't respond beyond a nod. Instead, he turns off the SFC and makes his way to the Plaza. It doesn't take long, but still, it's probably more time than Dist would like. Maybe Gale will make up for it with the towel he's offering.]

I did not ask your name, previously. I am Gale.

[Gale just nods. In his opinion, he's been respectful enough so far, and he doesn't know what fontech is to be impressed by Dist's genius in it.

He waits until Dist is finished drying and fixing his hair, then gestures.]


It is up on the Island. We will have to go to the elevator to get there.

[Well, this guy is pushy, isn't he. But Gale does nothing but nod, for the moment, and start to lead the way to the elevator. He won't let Dist push him around, but he's not going to argue the point when it would be so counterproductive.]

What is the purpose of a revenge journal?

I do not comprehend. If they have wronged you, do you not already know their transgressions? Have there been so many attacks against you that you truly need to write them all down?

[He's familiar enough with revenge, but the kind of revenge he was seeking... he can't imagine needing to write the details of it, as burned into his memory as they are.]

Their ungratefulness? [That doesn't sound much like a strong reason to push for revenge... then again, what does he know about it, compared to this person who is, apparently, constantly vengeful.]

What is the greatest wrong that has been done to you?

[In the meantime, they're drawing up on the Elevator to the surface.]
donotcomprehend: (I do not comprehend.)

[personal profile] donotcomprehend 2013-02-05 08:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes. It is above Vatheon, on the island.

[Gale answers that question first, taking his time to think over the other one before responding.]

You felt anger and betrayal. Yet, if you are still noting down ungratefulness, does that mean you have not yet sought out vengeance for that wrong?
donotcomprehend: (Strategist)

[action] that's fine!

[personal profile] donotcomprehend 2013-03-02 03:07 pm (UTC)(link)
It seems you have had ample time to plan for it. In the case where you cannot seek vengeance, I would suggest setting it aside. There is more to living than that.

I do not know. By the time I was brought here, the elevator to the island was already established.

[Gale steps inside first, and waits for Dist to follow.]

It was a suggestion, not a command. I cannot make you take it, though I think it would be wise, even if I do not have as much experience with living as most.

[Five years in existence, and much less than that spent doing what he would actually consider living. And very little of it happy.

Still, he'll remain silent until they reach the island up top, unless Dist deigns to start the conversation up again.]

[Dist is welcome to try, though he'll get to have fun with the barrier when he does.]

This way.

[Gale points out the direction, then starts moving. He hasn't been to the lab much, since there was little point after they gathered all the information they could from it.]
