02 ▷ video

[ The video flips on to what appears to be a music store -- various racks and displays of instruments to one side, rows and rows of CDs (who even buys CDs anymore??) to the other. On the instrument side, in front of the rows of guitars, there's a sheet of lined paper that reads "'STAIRWAY' BANNED. OTHER SONGS AT EMPLOYEE DISCRETION." And just beneath that in smaller letters, "(Seriously. Don't test me.)"

The device moves, and the camera along with it, to point down at a CD case on the counter. Specifically, this CD case. ]


Three guesses for what I found in the used CD section? And the first two don't count.

Even the dog doesn't look happy to be there, which is amazing, 'cause dogs love being everywhere.

And that poor kid. One day, her dad -- I mean, I assume it's her dad -- is gonna be like, "Hey, kiddo, did you know you were on the cover of an album?" And that girl is gonna get all pumped, thinking she's as big as the Gerber baby or something, and then nope, her dad whips this out. He'll be all grins and she'll just stare at it in horror, and it'll ruin her teenage life when her parents mention it every time her friends come over.

[ A pause as the camera shifts, showing the handsome gentleman that is Star-Lord, a.k.a., Peter Jason Quill. ]

Anyway. 'Parently I've been out of commission for a month. I hear I missed Night of the Living Dead and Smaug swoopin' down to attack the village. Don't supposed there's anything else anyone feels like sharing? Each interesting tidbit gets a kudos point, redeemable only for Star-Lord's Gratitude and, I dunno. Warm fuzzy feelings.

I'll worry about retuning it later if I gotta beat up some donkus.

Yeah, that sounds about right.

A little more diverse than that, but you know.
rathercommon: (explaining you a thing)

[ A nod. ]

I mean - some of it's about where you're from. But really it's a lot more about whether you've got money or not. So someone like me could sound way different from someone from three blocks away, because they're taught to speak the right way.

Because it's more like an online encyclopedia than a search engine.

Duly noted. I don't face extra charge for that information, do I?

Explosive powder.

If I told you any more, the antaam would probably kill me.

No problem.

[He could get to like this guy.]

I will totally show you. It'll be fun.

Pretty much, yeah. She loves to point out how uncool my beard is, I think it's like, public enemy #1 by now.

[Well, right up until just before his arrival it was probably public enemy #2, next to his job, but then secret identities were revealed and the path was paved for things to get better on that front. Too bad that he ended up here before he could even start his retirement to spend more time with her.]

It might have to be you doing it, I'm not sure I can find anyone else to use a spaghetti noose at this short notice.
rathercommon: (bullshit detected)

[personal profile] rathercommon 2015-05-18 02:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She smiles with approval. ]

So would I. I think we're speaking just fine. But some people would much prefer that we both spoke more like we were rich and brilliantly educated.

[He nods, but he doesn't look convinced. Does it matter that he did his best when it wasn't enough.]

If we find out why certain people got ported out we might be closer to finding out why this crisis even happened at all. It's a long shot but right now it's pretty much all we've got.

Ah, damn. I'll just have to find some other equally intriguing murder case. Y'know I'm pretty sure spaghetti strangulation is a virtual impossibility anyway. If it's uncooked it's just gonna snap and if it's cooked it's gonna be too soft...
