[ Well, here we have a username that hasn't been seen on the network in a while. The video itself is, alas, distorted at the moment. It seems the device itself is being moved rather quickly from hand to hand. ]

-- bloody well doing alright by myself.

[ And then there's Peggy Carter and a native nurse who has apparently made the mistake of trying to open and hold the device for her. It's enough to get her chased out as the woman struggles to sit up. On her way out, the nurse does take a few bloodied bandages with her. ]

Well, turns out one can get promoted in their absence.

[ She holds up a file of pages, apparently her new job description. ]

Is it too much to hope that my house is still intact?

[mannerism]

One learns something new every day, especially here.

[ her laughter gets mixed with a cough and a wince. they managed to make sure the pain doesn't make her pass out anymore but it'll bother her for days and days to come.

Still, there's work to get done; she can't do that without a clear head. ]

I fear that where I come from, those who are in charge ever touch paperwork. No, they assign that to the lower ranks, as well as bringing their lunch and pouring their coffee.

[happiertimes]

I've heard there's an expression on your planet that one should attempt to continue education everyday.

[It's not a bad philosophy as far as he's concerned. And he's sure that Dorian and Iona would personally subscribe to it should they hear it as well.

Her cough does make him frown a bit, but he has no room to talk. Until he was too feverish to stand and move a few months ago, he was attempting to do his own duty with the Guard.]

Ah, those above doing anything for themselves. Where I'm from, we call them "nobility" and useless.

[mannerism]

Would that everyone on my planet would abide by those words.

[ she smiles, tilts her head. ]

No offense, but where I come from, most of them are simply called men.

[happiertimes]

Would that everyone anywhere followed those words. Then maybe a great deal of ill would not exist. Idealism at its finest, madam.

[He lets out a soft laugh.]

There is very little divide amongst the sexes on my world. We have enough to worry about, what with the demons and monsters running around.

[mannerism]

Drawbacks and advantages.

[ Here, too, the patriarchy isn't as present, it's like a breath of fresh air, really, one of the advantages in this odd semi-kidnapping. Peggy leans back in her hospital bed. ]

Do you have many of those? demons and monsters?

[happiertimes]

I suppose every world has both of those in equal amounts. It's why we're all here, after all.


[He's just glad that there appears to be no one ready to kill them all for the sake of ruling the entire world as a god. As far as anyone has noticed yet.]

Yes, and sometimes they wear the face of men and women.

[mannerism]

How can you tell them apart?

[ she used to think she knows how to recognize when a human lied to her face but Dottie Underwood taught her otherwise. How does one go about telling a human from a demon - well! that must be an entirely different operation. ]

[happiertimes]

It is harder when they possess the bodies of humans, certainly, but they have a disregard for life that is difficult to mimic for most people.

Of course, [he frowns deeply and feels the desire to drink because he knows that is over simplifying things] there are the few people who just have no regard for anyone but themselves but are not possessed. Yet, they garner the same amount of disdain from anyone with a working conscience.
