60 - Video - That's my final answer.

[ Here's a blonde that hasn't been seen in a while... there are bags under her eyes, but that energy of hers is still there. It always is. Right now she has a wry smile on. ]

I think I've made a breakthrough in how the barge works. See, I spent the last couple of days poking around in my communicator since I learned how to do that last port (which is incredibly cool, by the way), and I've come to the conclusion that our network functions on magic.

[ No, she's not serious. ]

Honestly, compared to the stuff they had at OS-19? This thing is the bastard child of weird and nonsense. I give up.

But anyway, now that I've got the magical nonsense network back, it looks like I missed a flood. Lucky me. I hope nobody's too emotionally traumatized? In case you missed it, that was intended as a "hey guys, how have you been?"

Hey, you want to hang out in the CES? I could use a walk like nobody's business, so if you want to come along it's a free pass to whatever wacky landscape painting is on the menu today.

Of course it functions on magic.

[ichoosefight.livejournal.com]

I mean obviously. We're on a prison barge floating through space and time. I should have known.

[deepdowndark.livejournal.com]

It's not an absurd suggestion. Whole planets run on magic.

[ichoosefight.livejournal.com]

Which ones?

[deepdowndark.livejournal.com]

Mine?

[strangehistorian]

Mine as well! [n_n]

[kingfor-aday.livejournal.com]

I'm not dying of flu anymore.

[Private]

You look tired.

[ichoosefight.livejournal.com]

Oh good! It's a slow, painful way to go.

[ Private ]

I love you too, beautiful.

[kingfor-aday.livejournal.com]

Too much Julia Roberts involved, and I sincerely doubt anyone would let that happen.

[Private]

I was expressing concern. You alright?

[ichoosefight.livejournal.com]

I'm sure there are plenty of people who would be happy to shoot you first.

[ Private ]

I'm fine, honest. This thing gave me a killer headache, but I think I'm done with the whole staying-up-all-night-being-nerdy shtick.

[kingfor-aday.livejournal.com]

As much as Julia Roberts worries me - I'd rather not sign up for that either.

[Private]

As long as that's the only reason. No harm in being... nerdy now and then.

If nerdy means what I think it does.

I am absolutely wonderful, thank you. I direct your attention to my recent entry (http://whattheytellyou.livejournal.com/10887.html) and heartily encourage you to come grab a package of water balloons.

[Have a fist banging on the wall for added emphasis, neighbor. She knows you're quick and able-bodied and will join in on the water balloon escapades.]

[ichoosefight.livejournal.com]

You don't even have to ask! [ CONSIDER HER THERE also how did I miss that :|a ]

I'll grab my swimsuit.

Private

[failed-bluff.livejournal.com]

Why not? Ain't like I've got anything better to do.

Private -> ACTION SHAZAM

[ichoosefight.livejournal.com]

Meet you on deck in a few minutes?

Private -> ACTION SHAZAM

[failed-bluff.livejournal.com]

If I'm waitin' too long, I'm leavin'.

[That's all you get before the feed is disconnected, Steph. Your inmate isn't exactly polite. Or patient. But he is indeed going to be waiting on deck when you get there, just like he said.]

ACTION

[ichoosefight.livejournal.com]

[ She's going to get there either at the same time or first from her cozy cave on the first floor. ]

Like you were gonna pass this up.

[jurisfictional.livejournal.com]

Out of curiosity, what's OS-19?

[ichoosefight.livejournal.com]

The space station we landed at... almost a week ago, I guess. Man, you really lose track of time sometimes.

[jurisfictional.livejournal.com]

So that's what it was called.

And I suppose magic is as good an explanation as any other.

[ichoosefight.livejournal.com]

I fell off and... I dunno, got assimilated or something, so I know lots about it.

I had a longer name for it, but I figured 'magic' was easier to understand.

[some-kinda-hero.livejournal.com]

Oh, hey, Team Miss, I wasn't effected either. You okay there, you have bags under your eyes...

[ichoosefight.livejournal.com]

Like I said, I've been poking at magic for the last few days. I wouldn't even know if I was effected. What exactly happened? All I have to go off of is the network posts.

[some-kinda-hero.livejournal.com]

From what I can gather, nothing pleasant. Seems like a lot of sharing happened.

[ichoosefight.livejournal.com]

The last time a flood involved sharing I'm pretty sure I pissed off a Vulcan.
